The Importance of Bonding With Your Pet

Healthy relationships that go a long way

Here's another tip obtained from Pets Corner for those with or planning to have a pet, whether it's a dog or a cat.

The canines and felines of the world are happiest when their owners return from work and spend a few hours with them. Tails go wagging in dogs while cats get all affectionate and start nuzzling at your ankles. The purring sounds made by cats will make any owner glad he or she's home. Some owners will proudly say their pets even wait for them patiently at the door for their safe return.

Toys are good for pets

The amount of joys you can derive from pets is numerous. How can we repay them? Toys make a big difference for most cats. Depending on their age, woolly balls and cat toys are very exciting to curious felines and they could spend endless hours playing with them. Some kittens can be quite gregarious and enjoy ‘fetching' just like dogs, only difference is they don't bring it to you.

Owning dogs can be very therapeutic for many since dogs just love jumping on you and showering you with kisses as a sign of welcome. Some can even go overboard with their affections and knock you off-balance.

Playtime

Kittens have their fair share of fun. I know of a kitten that actually sits in the laundry basket knowing full well that her mistress is going downstairs to dry the clothes. The kitten is so clever it will actually jump into the basket that is filled with damp clothes and wait patiently. As soon as the mistress puts the basket down, it will jump out and start all her childish pranks such as catching the owner's ankle when they move, hopping on the grass and so on.

A pet owner indeed has the finer bits to any story and this may be one reason why most owners are filled with so much joy from all their rendezvous with their adorable pets and even regard them as their ‘darling daughter' or ‘son'!

Anyway if you'd like kitty to play in a certain area such as the scratch post, you can use the herbal form of ‘cat-nip' to attract them. It can be placed inside a sachet or small cloth to attract cats to that area. It contains pure natural catnip herb and cats find it irresistible and they will start playing near those areas.

Dogs wait anxiously to play ‘fetch', some even love to play their kind of football and any game that involves the master is considered an added ‘bones' (bonus).

All pets can be trained and molded to become loyal and perfect companions for man. We must exercise lots of patience and realize that when dogs are placed in kennels first of all they are bored.

An Evening with the Kids

This is a usual every day scene when it's time for Ayah to feed the kids canned food in the evenings. A large can is shared by 5 of them (Gabrielle and Victoria II do not fancy canned food) so everyone gets a fair share in their own individual bowls. This is the time when the house is noisiest (as you can witness in the video) and when we can see Isabelle actually running around (otherwise she would just sit still and sleep) from the kitchen to their room. Wet food is not served in the kitchen like their kibbles as Hercules would make a terrible mess playing with his food. Somehow he doesn't know how to eat from his bowl but he'd have to scoop the food out and then eat it from the floor. Bad boy!
