In Memory of Monty

Monty was rescued many years ago, dirty and starving, so nobody knew how old he was.

He was not my dog but belonged to friends of mine so I saw him a lot and looked after him on occasion.

He started to slow down a few months back and recently a lump was discovered on his neck. It was decided to operate, but unfortunately the tumour was too large to remove.

Monty said good-bye to his human family and was then helped on his way.

He was about the same size as a Pekinese with similar facial features and the beautiful auburn red coat that they have. He had long ears and a magnificent plume of a tail. Monty was feisty, and had a "don't mess with me" attitude. As with many small dogs, he was brave as a lion.

Cheerio my little friend until we meet again.

Photos Wanted Please

If you are like me you love to show your dog off, and what better way of doing it than on the Internet.

Big or small, mutt or pedigree, all of us dog-lovers think our own dog is special. I thought it would be a good idea and also good fun to have a photo gallery here. If you are interested in sending a photo for publication please send it to my Psychic Paws site which is:- www.psychicpaws.com. Just go to the site and you will find an e-mail address.

I Have Been Away

Sorry I have not been posting but I have not had internet access for the past couple of weeks because I have been back in the UK.

Unfortunately, in these hard times I have been forced to return to the UK to earn money periodically.

The important part of this is my baby, my boy Ben has to go into kennels whilst I am away. He was in this time for 17 days. I have checked the kennels out and they are extremely good but despite this, when he came home yesterday he was really not himself. Ears back and tail down. How mean did I feel? Ben is back to normal today though and is now lying on his back hogging the settee - sounds familiar?

He is thinner too which has worried me but needs must as they say.

How Do You Cope With the Loss of a Pet?

We know when we take an animal into our home and heart, that one day we are going to have to face living without them. Whether a bird, cat, dog, rabbit or any of the myriad pets that people have nowadays, that same creature will not in the main live as long as us.

I have had the honour of having many animals living with me over the years, and when the time came for them to leave I felt the same gut/wrenching pain each time. All but 2 of my babies had to be euthanised and that is such a hard decision to have to make. There are always questions, was it too soon, did I leave it too long, these are natural things that we ask ourselves?

I suppose if you know as I do that there is no death, it must be a little easier, but even knowing that I will see them all again does not make me cry fewer tears nor grieve any less.

What Happens to Our Pets When They Die.

Mike left an interesting comment also some info about a book which may be of help to some. My theory is our pets go on as I believe we do. I am sure that death is not the end. If you look at my site http://www.psychicpaws.com/ you will see that I am a psychic and an animal communicator.

I have had so much proof over the years from both humans and animals that I am convinced that there is nothing to fear in death.

I know that many people are sceptical of people who call themselves psychics, especially those who advertise on-line and charge for readings as I do, but some of us ARE genuine. A friend of mine has been a medium for many years and always used to give readings for free. He then found that people were not taking seriously what he was giving them because it was free information. I suppose that people think if something is free it cannot be worth anything, when he started charging for readings the feedback from people was much more positive..........strange, or is it just human nature?

If anybody would like a FREE short reading please go to the Psychic Paws site and follow the instructions, but please mention this blog.

What Happens to Our Pets When They Die

For most of us this is a pretty emotive subject. We all love our animals and the thought of losing them is almost unbearable, but we know it must happen at some time or other.

I have been very lucky with nearly all of my guys, only two died at a young age and the rest have lived into old age. It is a very sad fact that animals life spans are shorter than ours and we are well aware of that when we bring them into our lives.

It just seems to happen so quickly, one minute they are young and full of life, chewing things up and just generally being a pain, and the next you notice the grey hairs on the muzzle, the stiffness on rising and the fact that they cannot climb the tree like they used to, or walk as far along the beach.
