What About Me?

What About Me?

With this month being so busy, full of concerns for our tax obligation, worry, worry and more worry….our pets are saying “what about me?”  Our pets don’t have the understanding of the worry of everyday life – they just know they want their “me” time.  Pet ME, feed ME, walk ME…it’s all about ME!  We are busy being busy – not even realizing we are not paying attention to what the very live, breathing, furry bundle of love is trying to get… our attention.  We have something in our hands at all times – pinging, ringing, dinging, flashing or vibrating – all to keep our attention on the latest and greatest message that we just can’t possibly miss.  At dinner with our families – nobody talks – everyone has their phone in their hands texting, liking, typing, searching…what about the people and pets that are living and breathing right in front of you?  Our pets may start showing behaviors that they never used to do – urinating on your favorite chair, your side of the bed, your place on the couch.  It’s all about getting your attention – even if it is negative attention – they got your attention.  Even spending 5 minutes first thing in the morning – just you and your pet – cuddle, snuggle, caress – whatever makes them happy – but every morning for 5 minutes before the day gets busy.  Make it your morning quiet time; your active meditation…all they need is to know you still see them.

For the Love of Animals,

Frances
