Title: A PET'S TEN COMMANDMENTS.........
Post by: Connor Altinus Mcleod on October 06, 2009, 11:25:31 pm
A PET'S TEN COMMANDMENTS.. .......   

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 entertainment, 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.

Now please pass this on to other pet owners.  We are surrounded by hope, love, and joyfulness;  it is here on earth and has 4 legs!

I love my elderly kitty cat and treat her like family, but I just gotta add this:

Pets...

Thou shalt distracteth mine mobs while thy master gatherest mats.

Thou shalt attacketh mine targets, though they are 10 levels too high, whilst thy master escapeth.

One more:

11. When I bring you dead animals, don't scream or yell at me.  Just pull out the
chopping board and start making a tasty hash.  This is why I forage for you.  I
have the hunting skills and undying loyalty. You have the opposable thumbs and
the crockpots.
