Five THINGS YOUR PET TEACHES YOU

The key to a happier life is very simple – appreciate the little things around you, and who better to teach it to you than your four legged buddy! A little cuddle, a run around the park, a  tasty bite of a juicy piece of meat, it is bound to bring joy to both man and his animal.

Let’s have a look at 5 things you can learn from your pet:

•          Learn to celebrate – The first person to greet you when you come home is your pet. Despite the bummer of a day that you had it will definitely lift your spirits up by the gentle licks and cuddles from your loving hound. The simple joys of life are what you must appreciate and hold onto and who better to teach you the ways and means to find it other than your adoring pet!
•          Just being present – In times of grief and mourning no one else can help you heal faster than your faithful pet. A lot of people do not know what to say or do to make the person feel better yet what is important is not what you say but what you do not. Just quietly being there for you is what loyal pets do.
•          Express your love – Pets have nothing to hide, if they love you they express it. This approach is essential for the survival of any relationship. Expressing your love in a thoughtful and meaningful way will strengthen the bond you share with your partner.
•          Be independent – We can learn a lot from cats. They are self sufficient and love to do things their way. A person can be a lot happier when he is not worried about what other people think or say. Do what you have to do for yourself and not to please others, it may seem selfish but yet your happiness is what is most important!
•          Learn to co-exist – Live and let live is the easiest mantra for happy living. If dogs and cats can co-exist in a warm and loving environment so can two different individuals. All it takes is a little patience, tolerance and perseverance!
