First of all, the whole notion of having a *pet* is atrocious at best,
nauseating at worst. But then again some things are preferable to those that would call their animal friends a *goddess*, a surrogate child, spouse or worse. Cats are here to teach man/woman/child how to take time out to groom, play, nap, nosh and love. How to strategize hunting sprees, how to climb trees, how to ambush a rival and how to mark your territory. From a cat you will learn what it is to be serene, centered yet alert enough, savvy enough to be ready and able to make a mad-dash for an open door should the need arise. They will give bonus points to the people that really care about them by treating them like a precious creature of Hashem and not a glorified piece of furry furniture. No declawing, no neutering, no spaying - all totally against the Creator's wishes. What is expected from us as the stewards of this planet is be humane, compassionate and caring enough to feed an animal entrusted to us before we eat. Having a cat is no coincidence. It just didn't *happen* by itself. But like all occurances, situations and relationships - Hashem is the masterful joiner of soul to soul, spirit to spirit. We are to care for them and through us, they can and may be elevated spiritually vicariously through placing them in our hearts. They will be making the journey with us to the World to Come as a memory residing within our heart centers. YS "Sheena Weston" wrote in message ...
