A NOTE FROM RANDAL
******************

Hello Everyone,

More an more information is pointing to how pets can help our emotions. In this issue we discuss loneliness and how a pet helps us to overcome. I want to encourage you to pass this issue on to anyone who might find help with this issue.

Hope you have a great beginning of the summer season. Please remember if you are uncomfortable with the temperature your pet will be too.

Until next time,


Randal

MY PET, MY FRIEND

For Shanghai's growing aged population, a pet makes a precious friend -- and offers unexpected health benefits, writes Xu Wei.

The choice of pet is often a reflection of personality: a loyal puppy, a naughty kitty, a noisy parrot or quiet, colorful fish. But whatever the choice, animals bring the family a certain kind of life -- just as if a new member had been added.

``When I pet my soft, warm cat, Mimi, or play fetch with her, I feel relaxed and my heart grows warmer,'' says Cao Lingxi, a retired local woman in her 60s. With several decades of experience raising cats, Cao has been dubbed ``cat mom'' by her friends. ``I really regard these lovely creatures as family members. Without their companionship, I shudder to think what I would do all day in this big, empty house, as my children have moved out,'' she adds.

Cao is definitely not alone. Today, there are around 2.5 million elderly people who are aged above 60 years old in Shanghai, of whom 1 million are single, leading independent lives like Cao. Loneliness is a factor for many of them, and the answer, very often, comes in the form of a pet. Scientists have noticed the same thing, and they've started to explore the complex way that animals affect human emotions and physiology.

WANT OPTIMUM HEALTH FOR YOUR PET?

It won't happen with most of the pet food formulas on the market. Have you
noticed that pets are getting all the diseases that people have been getting
since we began eating junk foods? Our bodies run on nutrients and enzymes.
We can't be well without them. Read this article about pet foods and make
the choice after you compare popular pet food brands.

HIDE PET'S MEDICATION WITHIN FOOD OR TREATS

Dear Dr. Robin: We need advice on getting our dog to take her pills. She takes four pills twice each day. She is 10 years old and has arthritis and hypothyroidism. We would like to make her life as pleasant as possible, and are unsure how best to give her medications so that she doesn't resent us. Can we use some sort of treat? - T.C., via e-mail

NEED HELP WITH A HYPER DOG?

This is our most popular story from working with animals at our shop:

We had a couple who used herbs and had a hyper Rottweiler that would race to the door to "greet" anybody that visited. With an in-home business and customers picking up orders, this family needed some calming herbs for the dog. They began giving him VALERIAN ROOT and in about a week, the dog knew he needed it. Anytime they would grab a bottle of herbs, whether for themselves or him, the dog would come running and beg for a capsule. Most pets' instincts are still tuned in to nature. If you've got a hyper cat or dog, try Valerian Root. http://www.theherbsplace.com/valerian.html href="http://www.theherbsplace.com/valerian.html">Valerian Root

CAT TRAINING/BEHAVIORAL HELP

KITTEN BEHAVIOR "TRAINING"

Well-socialized cats are more likely to have well-socialized kittens. Kittens often mirror their mothers' calm or fearful attitude toward people; this is a normal part of their socialization. But you can play a vital role, too, by petting, talking, and playing with kitty to help her develop good "people skills."

Kittens who are gently handled by people 15 to 40 minutes a day during the first seven weeks are more likely to develop larger brains. They're more exploratory, more playful, and better learners.

HOW TO GIVE HERBS TO PETS

SENIOR PARTNERS: OLDER AMERICANS AND MATURE PETS
By Rebecca Simmons

When Marjorie Smith walked into the Idaho Humane Society in Boise two years ago, the 72 year old was struggling with the recent loss of her son and the 9-11 tragedy.

Like thousands of other seniors, Smith was battling a problem that threatened to consume her. The retired secretary wasn't suffering from cancer or heart disease, but from loneliness. Divorced and living alone, Smith was looking for something, or someone, to help her.

GOOD NEWS PET STORY
*******************

TIKKA AND JAMES ARE NOW A HAPPY PAIR

I just wanted to give you an update on Tikka. We have been on the natural heartworm program almost two months now, and the sick dog I adopted from the pound is all but a memory. From the time I got her until two weeks ago all Tikka did was sleep. She would not play and if you did manage to get her to play fetch she would chase the ball two or three times and then cough and go back to her spot on the couch.

She only ate ground canned dog food with absolutely no chunks of any kind. We would walk my daughter to school, which is less than a mile, and she would be so tired that I would have to call my husband to pick us up.

Not any more! I literally have to restrain her at times to keep her from running. She rolls and plays with our other dog, and loves to walk to school and back. Her tail no longer hangs down, but instead, it curls over her back. Her fur is absolutely gorgeous, so thick and it shines.

We are going to continue the herbal heartworm program for at least two more months before having her retested, but I can not thank you enough for helping us save our beloved companion.

My son, James, has Down Syndrome and Tikka is his best friend. Our other dog is still a puppy and a little rough, but Tikka is content to let James lay all over her. I can not imagine our lives without her. God Bless Robin for the time and work she does with heartworm dogs.
