Ten Things I Am Learning From My New Cat Therapist

Tori the Kitten That Could

Check out the article that I wrote for my friend Cheryl:  "Ten Things I Am Learning From My New Cat Therapist"  http://is.gd/8XdJuF .  Cheryl's blog is entitled "My Cat Is My Therapist" and it is a must visit for all you cat lovers out there!  It can be found at http://mycatismytherapist.com

Tori is a special needs kitty!  She arrived for me to "foster" on Thanksgiving Day.  She came for the meal and stayed for life!  She was brought into an Emergency Clinic for euthanasia.  She had probably been hit by a car and her front left leg was completely paralyzed.  She still has nerve damage and can not walk on it, but she uses it and zips around like any other nutty kitten.  She is a joyful addition to our family, and I often wonder at the fact that she may not have been here anymore at all.  The love and sweet moments we get from these precious rescued companions is one of the miracles of life.  Adopt one today!

My name is Sparky

My name is Sparky.  Last week I was 22 years young.  I have a few things that I would like to say if you would please give an old man-cat a moment.  Please keep me warm and comfortable.  Sometimes I get restless because it is hard to get comfortable.  I would like a few places where I can get under a blanket or lie in the sun.Do not be upset if I get cancer or something.  It was nothing you did.  It was because you took such good care of me.  I got an old age disease!  If you think I am very painful please help me.  I can go to the-sacred-before-and-after moment by moment.  I may seem slow and dazed.  I am really meditating, it helps me.  I will spend more and more time there until I have to go. I will hum my mantra.  Sometimes I do not eat or drink very much.  If you think I am hurting too much I trust you to do what is best for me.  Try to find me a Veterinarian who practices Hospice care for pets.  If you want to speed up my journey, I trust you.  If you do not feel it is your right to end my life, that is ok too.  Thank you for loving me and taking care of me.  I will love you.  My spirit will be with you.  Some of me will stay with you forever.
