[Dailydrool] a Pet's10 commandments

[Helena Poist]

1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years.  Any separation from you is

likely to be painful.  

                                                    
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.   

                     
3. Place your trust in me.  It is crucial for my well-being. 

            
4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment.

You have your work, your friends, your entertainments, but I have only

you. 

                                                                    
5. Talk to me.  Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand

your voice when speaking to me.   

                                         
6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it. 

           
7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt

you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.

                                    
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. 
 

9. Please take care of me when I grow old.  You too, will grow old. 

       
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.  

                          
~Take a moment today to thank God for your pets.  Enjoy and take good
care 
of them.  Life would be a much duller, less joyful experience without

God's critters~
