How Animals Can Be Theraputic

My life has been very interesting. We got a kitten a few weeks ago. The owner said she was 8 weeks old, but when he told us her birthday two weeks later I realized she was only 6 weeks old. So she was 4 weeks old when we got her. I've never had to litter box train a kitten, or teach it where it's food and water is, where it's bed is, but this is what I have been doing and watching Callie and making sure she doesn't get into things. It's been an eye opener for me on having a baby kitten in our lives that is 1 pound 6 oz.

Right now I tuckered both Snowflake and Callie out. They are dead asleep.Both these animals give me so much joy and healing. Snowflake knows when I am hurting emotionally and will come and lay by me until I am doing better. Callie will make me laugh with all of her energy. Any inanimate object is a toy and she will play with it.

Pets are so theraputic. I am so grateful that I have Snowflake and Callie. To me they are truely Service Animals.

The Love My Cats Bring To My Life!!!

Well I've had a lot going on the last 2 weeks. I didn't realize baby kittens get up at 4 o'clock in the morning. Callie my 8 week old kitten is now litten box trained. I am still watching her very closly though. I took her to the vet for her shots and she weighed 1 pound 6 oz. When I got her she was kind of a rescue kitty. So they didn't give her any shots because her health was to fragile. She ended up with a fungus on her ears and ear mites. This little kitten lived in really terrible conditions, and now it is just going to take time to nurse her back to health. Now she also has a Upper Respiratory Infection. Poor Callie. When one thing comes it POURS. We'll get her fixed up though.

Snowflake my other cat gives me a lot of love. She has been there for me through thick and thin. Snowflake has been a wonderful service animal. I don't even know how I trained her, but I am going to train Callie as a Service Cat at well. You might wonder how you do that. You hold them a lot, you love them alot. When your in need of them you go pick them up and hold them so they get a feeling or a sense of what it is like when you are in need, and it builds from their.

I have had Snowflake for 13 years and she knows when I need her to lay down with me or stay by my side. Cats can be very theraputic.

I think Heavenly Father brought Tucker, Snowflake, and Callie into my life to serve a purpose than just to be a cat in my life. What wonderful animals these are and have been Thank you Tucker, Snowflake, and Callie.

Rainbow Bridge

Rainbow Bridge



When an animal dies that has been especailly close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.  There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food and water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor, those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remembered them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to break away from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. YOU have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face your hands again caress the beloved head and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life you never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.............
