BEAR AND HIS BEST FRIEND HARMONYS



Posted by Picasa

BEAR AND HARMONYS

Harmonys is a little poodle who is one of Bear the Beaver Pig's best friends. When Harmonys comes over, Beaver always offers her his lettuce and kale but she prefers to snuggle noses and lick his snout. He wheaks and wheaks when she has to go home with her mom, but while she's here he thinks he is a dog and loves to play with her! Mom supervises them closely and always keeps her hands on Harmonys because sometimes she gets so excited she jumps around and Bear can't jump. But he sure loves her!

EMOTIONAL HEALING WITH YUM-YUM

"Emotional healing is a most amazing gift that's betstowed by our furry friends...the choice to nurture a pet in our life can bring huge returns on our investment." - Chelle Thompson, Editor of Inspirational Line

Mom wasn't used to being shut in since she got more sick and she was very lonely. She used to see the animals in the woods, mountains, and beaches but could no longer travel to her favorite places. She felt deeply sad by herself without her wild animal friends.

But since we have come into her life and made her home ours, burrowing softly into her heart, she is not sad or lonely anymore. We talk to her and tell her about our day, what we would like for breakfast in the morning, whether we would like a runabout or lap time, and if we want to hear our favorite music. YumYum has a Celtic channel on Pandora that he likes to fall asleep to. Bear the Beaver Pig loves the sound of his teeth rattling his cage or gnawing on his newest cardboard box house. And I love it when mom puts me in a cuddle-cup and we lay on the bed together watching different birds come to the feeder. If it's a little woodpecker, YumYum will giggle. We don't think mom is the same since she met us. She wakes up and we are there. She has a bad day and we are there. She goes to bed at night and we are there. We are always there to comfort her, but we mostly make her laugh just being ourselves. She thought she was rescuing us when she first saw us abandoned at the feed store downtown. But, now she confesses quietly into our little ears how grateful she is: for it is we who have rescued her and given her best friends to share her life with. Who knew little guinea pigs could love as much as we love? Only someone we have rescued really knows how joyful we are when we love and are loved in return.
