Because his long white
whiskers tickled,
I began every day laughing.

'Cats make one of the most satisfying sounds in the world: they purr
... A purring cat is a form of high praise, like a gold star on a test
paper. It is reinforcement of something we would all like to believe
about ourselves - that we are nice.' - Roger A Caras
"Of all the [cat] toys available, none is better designed than the
owner himself. A large multipurpose plaything, its parts can be made to
move in almost any direction. It comes completely assembled, and it
makes a noise when you jump on it." -- Stephen Baker

ANGEL CATS: WHEN FELINE FRIENDS TOUCH HEARTS AND CHANGE LIVES
By
Allen and Linda Anderson
I’ve
had cats as members of my family for the past 24years and I’ve always believed
that they possess an ‘other worldliness’ about them. Reading Angel Cats by Allen
and Linda Anderson has strengthened that belief.
Grouped into five chapters – each dealing with a particular theme – it’s plain
to see that the contributing authors share that belief also.
The
overriding lesson seems to be that cats are, indeed, angels that spend their
time on this existing plane caring, nurturing and teaching their human
companions, or bringing comfort when needed. It also seems that once that task
is complete they will transcend to a higher plane, perhaps to reincarnate once
again.
Maybe
that’s where the term ‘having 9 lives’ originates. Perhaps they incarnate 8
times until we are reunited one day on our own journey’s end.
Tim
Miejan’s ‘The Man Who Got His Purr Back’ (see page 127) resonated strongly with
me. His three cats, China, Madonna and Seth positioned themselves at strategic
parts of his body while he lay on the floor waiting for help to take him to
hospital. When he engaged the services of a Pet Whisperer, they each told her
that his purr was missing and they were worried that where he was going (to
hospital) he wasn’t coming back.
Cats
represent ‘chi’ – or energy – and Madonna, China and Seth, in their
purring, re-energised Tim.
This
reminded me of a time when I was in a severe relapse with the CFS/ME and I went
back to bed after breakfast one morning. Garfield and Timmy came immediately to
lay on either side of me; the remaining five cats each positioned themselves at
my head, throughout my body down to my feet. Enveloped by an enormous purring
machine I slept for a couple of hours, flanked by each cat who stayed in his
position until I woke up, re-energised.
Tim’s
story, as well as all the others, proved once again, as if proof were needed,
that cats have accumulated years of wisdom and knowledge from the Source of all
life and unselfishly they share their lives with us lower beings.
‘Angel Cats: When feline friends touch hearts and change lives’ is a gentle read
and you, the reader, will feel utterly blessed. You will also give greater
respect to the four-legged angel who shares your life.
Available in paperback from Penguin Books, the ISBN is:

A
Cat's Prayer'
Lead me down all the right paths,
Keep me from fleas, bees, and baths.
Let me in should it storm,
Keep me safe, fed, and warm.
Let the sun shine where I lay,
Keep me young so I may play.
And most of all ...
Bless the people I adore,
And guard me from the dog next door.
Lisa Malone
