Feng Shui for cats

How to live in harmony with nature and your humans

To help Bubba adjust to his new indoors-only edict, we've decided to implement a bit of oriental philosophy, and we came up with Feng Shui for Cats. The concept of Feng Shui, we learned, is to live in a balanced environment, to attain spiritual harmony with oneself and others around us.

Ch'i - Life Force

h'i is life force and is good when encouraged to flow evenly throughout the house. SHA, which we decided must be Bad Ch'i, delivers adversity and misfortune, it is said. Upon contemplation, Bubba is convinced that SHA must be responsible for hairballs and d*gs. Bad SHA!

Maximizing Energy

Developing good Feng Shui seems to be a matter of maximizing energy, which Bubba endorses wholeheartedly. It is no wonder then, that the placement of one's bed is of vital importance for attaining the goal of maximized energy. There are several rules for bed placement that seem to have been designed specifically for cats:

Never place your bed under a window

How to Recognize Pet Poisoning Symptoms

Fri, 27 Jun 2008 20:08:50 GMT

clipped by: murieleileen

Clip Source: ezinearticles.com

Unfortunately, most of our pets don't speak our language and that can make it difficult to provide the care that we would like them to have at times. No time is more serious than a time of illness and possibly one of the more serious is poisoning.

When dealing with some varieties of poisoning time is essential in getting your pet the care that may make the difference between lasting harm and minor discomfort. We'll discuss a number of different warning signs that you can be vigilant for to alert you that what is wrong may be poisoning.

Mouth

Most commonly the mouth is the entry-way for any form of poison that you pet may come in contact with. Thankfully the warning signs are usually rather noticeable and easy to identify. The first is simply excess saliva. If your pet is drooling more than usual or excessively then you may want to take a closer look at them. If think you recognize any of these symptoms please go ahead and verify the others and use your head

Unbelievable !!!!!!! Cat on Dog, Rat on Cat - Best Friends

Dog, cat & rat

Some things just don’t mix; oil and water, cola and pop rocks. This is even true in the animal world. You’re not likely to see a dog, cat and rat getting along. That is, unless you live in Santa Barbara, California.

Walk down the streets of Santa Barbara and you’ll see something interesting. You’ll see a man with a dog. On top of the dog rides a cat. On top of the cat rides a rat. It’s a tower of animals that should be eating each other. But they’re getting along.

Gregory Pike trained the animals himself. His Rottweiler, Booger, had a litter of puppies. Pike introduced a kitten, Kitty, to the litter. Booger accepted the kitten as its own child. Pike raised the cat around small animals, like rats. Kitty accepts the rat, Mousey, as a sibling. Pike says, if they can get along, why can’t people?

Where Do Pets Come From ?

A newly discovered chapter in the Book of Genesis has provided the answer to the burning question about where our pets came from.

Adam said,

"Lord, when I was in the garden, you walked with me every day. "Now I do not see you anymore. I am lonesome here and it is difficult for me to remember how much you love me."

And God said,

"No problem! I will create a companion for you that will be with you forever and who will be a reflection of my love for you, so that you will love me even when you cannot see me. Regardless of how selfish or childish or unlovable you may be, this new companion will accept you as you are and will love you as I do, in spite of yourself."

And God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam. And it was a good animal. And God was pleased. And the new animal was pleased to be with Adam and he wagged his tail.

And Adam said,

"Lord, I have already named all the animals in the Kingdom, and I cannot think of a name for this new animal."

And God said,

"No problem! Because

From our Humor files

BY THE BOOK

As chaplain in a university residence hall, I am supposed to uphold all of the school rules, which include a ban on pets. That changed when a kitten adopted me.

The freshmen in my dorm kept my secret. They covered for me by calling my kitten "the Book," since I had so many in my room.

One morning I was leaving the dorm with the kitten in a carrier. A student stopped me and asked, "Where are you taking the Book?"

I explained that I was taking the kitten to the vet. "She's getting neutered today," I told him.

"Hmmm," the student responded, "no sequels."

clipper's remarks: You might think you're smart, but none of your senses rival the keenest abilities in the animal world. Animals see in the dark, sniff prey miles away, and detect electrical output from muscle twitches in hidden meals. Read on, so you don't become one of those meals.<<

Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially 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, 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 remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each 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. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
