A children’s story for adults I only, started, writing..
What if a cat took all the lessons learnt from his human’s sessions as a therapist
and took them to his friends in the wild?
These humans they just want connection
They want mummas to lick their paws. Help teach them how to tend to their own wounds.
Show them what love is.
They have therapy and talk things through.
Rudi – chief treasurer of the treats
But, why should we listen to them? THEY are the ones destroying some of our animal (human heart) environments.
My friend Sebastian dog, of furry stature, is already so full of love.
Rudi, of multiple licks, as one will never do
..
As Rudi left the session of cuddles on his Mummas lap and all the attention he was given on the sofa, he had a renewed sense of knowledge. He knew he mustn’t be distracted from this..
but, there was a buzzing about and voices EVERYWHERE.
‘ohh fly.. ohh whirl’ Rudi thought
but the washing machine cycle energy was too much. He couldn’t hear himself over it, as ‘the whirl with the fluffy tail is climbing the tree’
‘It’s not whirl’.
Sebastian Golden spoke aloud.
‘It’s squirrel’
‘Well in my mind, from my perspective, it’s whirl..
and ‘HOW did you know I was thinking this?’
Rudi, of the cat naps
..
All of a sudden, all of the animals in Rudi’s environment could hear him, and each other.
It seemed so natural to Seb, the enthusiastic and sleepy golden, as the golden retriever was constantly absorbing human emotions.
Confronting them.
Comforting the humans.
It was exhausting.
..
And, when it got too much, he needed a break, just him and his favourite Teddy, Caroline, and his favourite yellow ball.
Aged (technically), slimy with saliva, but beautifully pristine, due to being carried so gently between his teeth.
There was the playful and the carer, the parent and the soft puppy with needs.
All rolled into one, magical, breed..
