A Well Brought up Pet is a Source of Joy

Preiti came in our life when we least expected it. We had decided to give ourselves a respite for a while after we had lost our pets at different times but in walks Preiti on her own. She was tiny, may be just a month or two old but she already knew house breaking.  She did give us a bit of a trying time when she was a puppy though.

But now, enough is not enough when praising Preiti who has grown into a well behaved,  dignified lady – a source of great joy.

She sometimes springs pleasant surprises too. As usual we both share our couch for our siesta. Yes. She too has a siesta after a meal. I am not quite comfortable with her squeezing herself there with me but I put up with it.  Yesterday I was too tired and I wanted to stretch myself. I requested her if she could go and sleep on her own bed. She hesitated for a while but I could not believe my eyes when she actually listened to me and got off the couch to sleep on her bed which is in our bedroom.

I sometimes wonder if we are underestimating our pets in that do they see everything around them just as we do but because they are mute they cannot express?

Preiti does have more human tendencies. She will not sleep on a dirty bed sheet. Here is a video link that shows that. She would not get to bed until the sheet was changed

She will start eating her food either after we have finished eating or while we are eating. She never begs but will sit at the foot of our dining table. We have not taught her any of this. This is her own discipline. She does not like to take medicines and is fully aware when I approach her with it. That is the only time I have to deal with her.

    • Yes, if you have a tamed pet it brings joys for the owner in the real sense because pets are just like child if you tame them with your own hands. People really and truly love their dogs. Some people even treat these little fur balls as though they are children.

      Recently, there’s been a debate in our house about whether to get a dog. There are many things to think about, especially being an entrepreneur and seemingly always on the go. However, many of my entrepreneur friends have dogs and have encouraged me to consider it.

      excitement and sheer glee are contagious. As an entrepreneur, enveloping yourself in those emotions reinforces that it is okay to be passionate and celebrate life and people along the way. Even better, treat or no treat, your dog is that cheerleader who is going to love you no matter what you can or cannot do with your startup at that moment.

      If you have a dog, cat, bird, hamster, bunny, gerbil, mouse, snake, turtle, lizard, or any kind of fish, then you should check us out. We’re convenient to most communities west of Boston and try to make sure that you can get what you need when you need it. We enjoy visits from any pet and hope you will join yours sometime soon.

    • If I can only create my own Animal Kingdom, I will do it. I can only cater 2 dogs, a cat, and 4 kittens. It brings joy to the family.They were always there to calm the restless soul and boost the energy if feeling unsettled over something.

      My younger brother is planning to have another dog. It would be given to my little niece who likes animals. A big family with pets roaming around the house. It takes a lot of responsibility but the joy brought by them is priceless.

      • That is quite a number :smile: We had a few earlier but now Preiti is getting all the attention. There are stray cats that we feed.

    • I have beautiful place in my house for pets because I love my pets as flying pigeons and parrots and partridges. I like them most. Everyone knows that kids love animals. A quick safari through your child's bedroom will remind you just how densely imaginary critters populate the storybooks, movies, music, toys, decor, and clothes of childhood.

      In real life, the amount of money we spend on our pets has nearly doubled in the past 10 years, rising to more than $38 billion, according to the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association.

      While book groups are the rage among her mother's friends, Natalie has her own reading tribe: We often find her curled up in her bed or lying in a den of blankets in a quiet nook of the house, reading to one or more of her cats. She pets them as she reads, stops to show them pictures and ask them questions. She even reassures them during scary parts of the story.

      According to a study by Dennis Ownby, MD, a pediatrician and head of the allergy and immunology department of the Medical College of Georgia, in Augusta, having multiple pets actually decreases a child's risk of developing certain allergies. His research tracked a group of 474 babies from birth to about age 7. He found that the children who were exposed to two or more dogs or cats as babies were less than half as likely to develop common allergies as kids who had no pets in the home.

      Children who had animals had fewer positive skin tests to indoor allergens -- like pet and dust-mite allergens -- and also to outdoor allergens such as ragweed and grass. Other studies have suggested that an early exposure to pets may decrease a child's risk of developing asthma.
