operation or a stroke, I think that a cat can provide a very supportive role during these times.<\/p>\n<p>Cats are so adorable.\u00a0 They can be funny, serious, loving, generous, kind and whacky.\u00a0 They would also be the most sympathetic animals that I have known in my own personal life.<\/p>\n<p>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.\u00a0 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.\u00a0 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.\u00a0 So I think that bringing 2 wee dogs back with us after that holiday would have been great for us.\u00a0 But you know, I have no recollection of having the dogs as it was very short lived.\u00a0 My sister seems to recall that either our stepmother didn\u2019t like them or our step father didn\u2019t like them when we returned to our mother the next holidays \u2013 so I don\u2019t even remember what happened to them.\u00a0 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\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>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.\u00a0 Our neighbour\u2019s cat was always having a litter, therefore we knew where they came from and were very accessible to us.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for reading my blog.<br \/>\nPlease comment below and share my link.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/amis-de-chat-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Debbie Nicholson<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/catsinamedicallysupportiverolept1.m4a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here for your Audio link to this blog<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=DG9G3A3M6HCPW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/images\/life-happens-volume-1-3d.png\" alt=\"Life Happens Volume 1\" width=\"165\" height=\"219\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Life Happens Volume 1 A Collection of Funny Emails and Facebook Messages Dating From The 1980s To 2012<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Favourite Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thewellgroomedpet.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cathy&#8217;s Well Groomed Site<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/debbie-nicholson\/thetwokenyaspt3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Debbie&#8217;s Other Blog<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.catster.com\/lifestyle\/cats-service-animals-laws-ada-emotional-support-therapy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Emotional Support Therapy Cats<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.catster.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cats<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.quora.com\/What-are-some-good-words-to-describe-a-cat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How To Describe A Cat<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/amisdechatbook2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amis de Chat Book 2<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=5QMBK9P5UQCEC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-174 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/506-694-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Amis de Chat\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/amis-de-chat-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New Product Launch<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>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.
