Cats In A Medically Supportive Role Pt1

In times of illness, pain and grief, getting over an operation or a stroke, I think that a cat can provide a very supportive role during these times.

Cats are so adorable. They can be funny, serious, loving, generous, kind and whacky. They would also be the most sympathetic animals that I have known in my own personal life.

We had Pomeranians when we were very young, and truly while they were little and we were little, I was too young to remember what they helped us with. If I could take myself back to the time when our own natural mother gave one to each of us when we left her after a court-induced holiday with her, then I would probably be filled with gratitude that we had someone to love us and to love in return. The home we spent the rest of our lives from the ages of 3 and 5 was so miserable- without the natural love of a mother, a father who was away at nights and slept during the day but seemed to not have any say in the treatment of us his supposedly precious daughters. So I think that bringing 2 wee dogs back with us after that holiday would have been great for us. But you know, I have no recollection of having the dogs as it was very short lived. My sister seems to recall that either our stepmother didn’t like them or our step father didn’t like them when we returned to our mother the next holidays – so I don’t even remember what happened to them. My sister does, and she says it is so painful a memory for her, she does not wish to discuss it with me even though we are now both in our 60’s.

In my own adult life, I had cats for my own children to enjoy. And they loved them and played with them from the time they were very small kittens. Our neighbour’s cat was always having a litter, therefore we knew where they came from and were very accessible to us.
