I wanted to write to you today about cats...Dainere<br /><br />I wanted to write to you today about cats. I bet you missed Tinkerbelle when you were away. I have 3 cats, all rambunctious desexed boys, two of whom are littermates and one who is not. They get on remarkably well. A lot of people don't think much of cats - and I used to be one of them, I thought of myself as a dog person. I still adore dogs but how these little boys have changed my view about cats. Somehow they know just the right thing to do - when to play to make me laugh, when to do their own thing, and when to snuggle close and purr. It truly is amazing. I hope that Tinkerbell gives you the same joys. Cats are truly amazing. Here's something that touched my heart recently, which I thought you might like<br /><br />A PET'S TEN COMMANDMENTS.........<br />1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you is likely to be painful.<br />2. Give me time to understand what you want of me<br />3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.<br />4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainment, but I have only you.<br />5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.<br />6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.<br />7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.<br />8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.<br />9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.<br />10 On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.<br /><br />I suppose I liked this as it made me think about my behaviour from my cats perspective. <br /><br />Hope you managed to get to school and that your pain levels were not to bad. Hopefully the new medication is starting to have some affect. <br /><br />Can't wait to hear of your plans for the holidays... lots of cooking, training, dvd's and family time? Sounds perfect. <br /><br />Take care blossom<br /><br />AntheaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465911028473949181.post-29728703633650744462010-09-13T23:01:36.357+10:002010-09-13T23:01:36.357+10:00Dear Dainere,

Mum said in her email that you had a very busy week and after speaking with you briefly about it, no wonder you were so happy to be home, it sounded frantic!<br /><br />It is good news for you the Tigers get another chance on Friday against the Raiders - a huge night for you if you are going...let's hope Benji is OK to play. Good luck to the Tigers - David did not see me write that!<br /><br />Take care and see you soon<br /><br />Lv Dianne xxxxxxxxDiannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04839192768056244573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465911028473949181.post-381497872077451742010-09-13T21:55:06.046+10:002010-09-13T21:55:06.046+10:00Dear Dainere,
You must be so pleased to be home! ...Dear Dainere,<br /><br />You must be so pleased to be home! It was good that the trip seemed to go quickly. It's a real blessing to be with our family and friends. I can understand that Nalani and Jarrett being really pleased to see you and Mum.<br /><br />Yes, the Wests Tigers/Roosters match was very LONG and nerve-wracking! But now there is a Canberra match on Friday night. On the News tonight it said Benji was a good chance to play, that his knee injury isn't as bad as first thought. That sounds good!!<br /><br />Did you watch the new series on SC Ten last night, Junior MasterChef? I'm sure your vegetable slice would go well!<br /><br />Good news that Jarrett's asthma medication worked well. Finges crossed for a good report on Wednesday.<br /><br />Were you able to go to school today? And have you been able to organise the new transmitter for your hearing aid? Hope it doesn't take too long to get. <br /><br />Once again, thank you for sharing your journey with us. Hope you have a better, more comfortable time at home this week.<br /><br />Thoughts and prayers,<br /><br />MariannemrAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465911028473949181.post-59110679724196577062010-09-12T21:41:45.260+10:002010-09-12T21:41:45.260+10:00Hi Dainere,

The Tiger's lost too and I'm pleased you're back home with your family - it's always comforting being at home isn't it?<br /><br />I hope your pain eases slightly and you manage an okay sleep tonight.<br /><br />Our family visited the RSPCA today and we adopted a gorgeous 10 month old doggy, terrior cross jack russell named Coco. He needs a lot of love and that, we can provide. He has to sleep in the shower tonight as we didn't even have a kennel but tomorrow night we will be all set up. I know my boys will love him as much as you love Tinkerbell.<br /><br />Take it easy this week at school, soon it' holidays - Yeh!!<br /><br />Love FranAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465911028473949181.post-49819912033144099622010-09-12T18:10:14.844+10:002010-09-12T18:10:14.844+10:00Hey Dainere!
