Farewell to animals: A new trend?
Farewell to animals: A new trend?
In many Dutch households buy a pet part of the family as a full member. And often it remains not only one, but having more animals rather than the exception. When taking a pet, we have (fortunately) not realize that our four-legged friends almost always survive and so at some stage have to take leave of them. And that hurts, a lot of pain. From an animal that you always faithful and dear to them and never asked anything in return, you would properly say goodbye and give such a final resting place.
End around
If the animal age and ill and remains, the realization that the end is in sight, and that the parting is near. Because we generally loathe to accept, we are so attached to his or her presence, we go with it to the vet in the hope that healing is possible. Often we wait too long to redeem from his lead and to sleep because there is no emotional distance can do, while the mind says it can not continue. Once when the time comes, you must decide for yourself whether your last moments in the life of your pet to share with him or her by his example and keep the poor. If you can not handle, then embrace the beast and give him one last hug and then go away.
Farewell
If the ball once by the Church and the vet has applied euthanasia, the question remains what to do with the beast (you). Previously pets were mostly buried in the garden or on a nice spot in the forest. In commemoration was then planted a tree. Today there are many other possibilities. You can leave it to the vet, burial in a dierenbegraafplaats, but also allow cremation. Where an animal crematorium to be cremated, that happens collectively. If however you want to keep the ashes or scatter your pet will be cremated separately.
New trend
A new trend is the creation of the creature. This give you the animal as it were a "new" life after death. The body is then prepared by a specialist, then the owner can retrieve it again and could give a place in the living room. Incidentally, you have to take into account the cost, because it is a few hundred euros cost for a small animal and twice as a larger beast.
Mourning
The loss of a pet is a barely acknowledged societal grief. And for that reason and there is little support provided for this form of mourning. But as with the funeral of a loved one can now also comforting rituals work by sharing and expressing grief. For example acquaintances informed of the death of your pet and take a kind of funeral leave your pet.

The winter coat of the longhaired cat
The winter coat of the longhaired cat
Press
The press is relatively short in the legs, and has a somewhat stocky figure with a flat snout not very big ears. You can find such a beautiful cat or not, there is little between. The character is quiet and friendly and would be cited if it suits him or her. Sometimes the nose is raised too far and too flat, what the standard is nice, but where the animal sometimes may have trouble with breathing. And also, the eyes large and round and very vulnerable.
The fur
But the press is known feature of the long silky coat. The press has a coat that should be brushed very regularly and it is therefore important that the cat from childhood - although the actual brushing of the coat is not necessary - know what is brushing. Something he or she is not afraid of having to sit still neat and if you brush brings forth. Sometimes a cat even pleasant. The cat will be as pleasant if not to the coat needs to be pulled because of tangles. It is more a delight for cat grooming and will go without problems.
If the cat is not used and you want velcro or felting of fur counter, start very quiet and soft as a brush stroking the cat. Leave a clit are necessary or cut it out. If this rate is very carefully performed and there is occasionally a little clit included, then the cat will not immediately shoot the stress. But go to a cat grooming is not used, not right away like mad to get out tangles.
If too many burrs in it, you can also decide to shave bald cat off at the vet. The cat is placed in a light Herald and get a bald cat back. Not really nice, but good for the coat. The skin blood flow is much better, which in turn is good for skin and coat.
Winter coat
In the summer you will not completely from, but the coat is not nearly as thick and then brushing or combing a piece of cake. However it is much more intensive in the winter. The cat who already like to heating is double than that will really thick coat and at least once a day should be taken in hand.
Assuming that the cat is accustomed, it is useful to your own clothing to guard against violence and a hairy old shirt or apron will sometimes help. A cloth over the lap and the cat on top. Play with the cat and the same attributes and start combing the daily ritual.
Klitjes quickly create the legs, the tail under the chin and the ears. A fine comb you will easily tricky spots, it helps to those places tangle free. Furthermore, behind the back by licking including klitjes arise. These are generally easier to obtain and are unlikely to form large tangles.
There is special (gloss) powder on the market that helps combat the tangles. One owner loves it and the other nothing. But what it really helps if your cat occasionally washes and rinses after when after some cat shampoo conditioner (human) in done. Rinse well, of course, but it helps against tangles and gently is nice and soft.
While the cat in the game of brushing and combing will last longer and enjoy the attention then there is nothing wrong. So try it in the system of the cat to bring in a way that the beast is not as painful and threatening experiences.

Can I have a pet?
As a parent, there's usually a question of time that your child, often anywhere from when it goes to the kleutergroep. He or she sees it in friends at the petting zoo and wants himself some cute little creature to play. Do you have a household where pets are present then the question might not be so urgent, but for children who are not accustomed to an animal home can be a big wish. And of course everyone they know a cat, dog or rodent home.
Give your child a pet, yes or no?
In more than half of the households there is a pet. From the educational perspective, a good move for your child to give meaning: the child must care for the animal, what it can teach responsibility and it can always be emotions in animals to lose if things go against him here. Also been shown that petting animals relieve stress works, also for children obviously a good thing. And of course the child to a pet just have fun.
If you own animals will keep it for your child so hard for you to persuade his dearest wish come to pass. Finally you find yourself nice! But you're not so enamored of the idea of an animal in your house or do anything with animals it is difficult to decide where everyone is happy. Of course there is a chance that you simply refuse your child, your son or daughter has had bad luck. Would your child do respond, it seems obvious to choose an animal that is not "too much present '.
No dog or cat, what is?
Your child a dog or cat can give something too much if you're not quite sure whether it was a good decision for your child to give meaning and a pet to buy. Finally a dog or cat runs all day on the floor, can molt and junk it. In addition, a dog several times daily walks should be a lot of money and costs, eg for food and vet. Furthermore, those cute puppy or on course, otherwise he later inapplicable. Young cats and dogs can play a battlefield of your interior. The course is fun, such a sweet puppy or kitten cute, but if you prefer something smaller and easier to maintain, the choice seems soon to fall on a rodent, such as a hamster or a guinea pig.
The hamster: not suitable for small children
Hamsters are rodents that cute fuzzy volstouwen their cheek pouches with food pieces. They come in various types, sizes and colors. With their cuddly appearance and size (fits exactly between two children's hands), they seem suitable as pets for young children. They are for sale in the pet store and sit there in glass containers and to check if it were ready to purchase an impulse to be purchased. What is not a good idea.
Hamsters are not suitable as pets for (small) children. They are nocturnal, which means they sleep during the day and become active when your child goes to bed. The child has no daytime fun to pet. And as a hamster in his sleep is disturbed, he reacts very cranky and will bite. This is not only sad for the animal but also for your child. A hamster is small, very mobile and difficult to handle in young hands. If he falls to the ground then the chances are that he did not survive. If you do choose to give your child a hamster, remember that your child only under good guidance how to handle them. Do you not want your intensively to interfere, then you should definitely not start.
Syrian hamster
Syrian hamster
If you still have decided to give your child a hamster is a Syrian hamster or golden hamster, the most appropriate. Because of its slightly larger size it is more manageable than other types and has a quiet nature. Moreover, this species fairly easy to get tame. The Syrian hamster but does not accept fellows, so you should leave him alone to prevent a tragedy.
The guinea pig: well suited, but fragile
Guinea pigs and hamsters are larger than do small naps during the day only. They are animals with a friendly nature and therefore more suitable as pets for your child. But as each pet is: know what you are getting. Guinea pigs are to begin group of animals, so if you're committed to these animals, you will immediately have to buy two. Or of the same sex, you do not want in no time be saddled with a nest. A guinea pig in his own dying and that is pathetic.
Guinea pigs seem by their physique rather robust but are in fact very fragile. These animals must be held with care and guidance to your child as needed: when they hit the floor they can easily break a bone, because they are built quite plump. These animals can not itself create vitamin C, which means they need every day fresh greens alongside dry food and hay. This requires extra attention to the feed. They need a large cage, a small aquarium is really no good housing for a few guinea pigs.
Tips prior
If you are considering buying a hamster or guinea pig for your child to remember the following:
* You remain responsible as a parent, how well your child also assists in the care of the animal, you should care about if you take this child for some reason just can not do themselves.
* A child can not see what it means to be a living thing to care properly for years. Please note that your child the animal at some point maybe tired, you will be ready to take over all the care.
* Cleaning the cage is a chore that weekly returns
* There are costs associated with coming back after the purchase costs such as feed and any vet
* If you go on vacation, someone else the hamster or guinea pigs to provide
* Make sure you before you actually acquiring them, are well informed: buy a book or find information on the Internet.

The following tips are designed for owners with dogs that are a bit afraid of fireworks, or for owners of puppies who have never experienced fireworks. By following these tips may be that your puppy is not frightened of fireworks and that your older, any frightened dog, no more or less scared.
Turn on your radio
If the radio is in the house, the dog hears less noise from outside. This will perhaps decrease his anxiety.
Close the curtains
When the curtains in the house are closed, the dog sees no light flashes, making it potentially less afraid.
Leave the dog on time
It is a fearful dog wise time to. Do this well before it starts bang, for example at 22:00. Try to walk calmly with him and not paying attention to startle reactions. Pretend nothing is wrong and go on quietly. Never let your dog loose, because he can run the terror. Perhaps it is wise to chipping your dog, then he can go back at least until he found someone.
Do not walk too close to fireworks
A dog that fireworks can go off very close to him, this huge scare and fear develop. You can leave a dog is accustomed to fireworks, but start at a great distance and reduce the distance only if the dog shows no voltage. Obviously you must also take care that you or your dog being hit by fireworks.
Give the dog a quiet place
Create a nice sheltered spot for the dog, like a crate with a blanket over it. This gives him the idea of a safe lair. Crawls the dog away under a table or under the bed, let him lie down until he comes of falling itself.
Ignore fear
How pathetic is the dog, ignoring his fearful behavior. Pay no attention to fearful behavior he loves to talk, stroking, or to look at. This will confirm your fears are and will always be worse. It is wise to instruct your possible visit to ignore the dog.
Use a sedative
In the pet store or your veterinarian are many types of tranquilizers to calm your dog what to do when old and new. You can choose something homeopathic (eg Back rescue spray), something based on pheromones (eg evaporator or the DAP collar), some based on food (Royal Canin diet calm) or supplements (Zylkene), or something based medicine (Diazepam or Vetranquil). Get detailed advice of the staff of the pet store or vet practice. Note potential side effects, which sometimes makes sense, your dog not to leave home alone.
Practice with a CD
There are CDs (eg Tinley) showing sounds of thunder and fireworks. Allows you to practice with your dog. Start with a very low volume and run continuously on. This step should only be done at times that your dog shows no anxiety. It is wise to exercise all year round and not just a few days before the new year starting.
For dogs with extreme fear or trauma, I recommend a behavioral to search. This can guide you and your dog in this period.
I wish you and your dog a quiet old and new here!

Average two times a year several Gypsy families came together in the Cheviot Hills. In these hills they held competitions with their dogs.

The cat as a pet. Some History
The cat as a pet. Some History
The cat as a pet. Since when?
Our cat is probably a cross between the African wild cat, the cat with our Nubian regions common European cat. The African cat was not only in Africa but in the entire area around the Mediterranean Sea. The European cat was more compact in stature and less elegant than the Nubian. Around the eighth century, the cat in Western Europe as pets for.
In the Middle East, the cat as roommate for much longer. A statue of a few thousand years old from Anatolia gives us to see a woman with a cat plays. Well before the beginning of our era was the pet cat already in Jericho. Also on wall paintings from ancient Egypt cats afgegeeld. There is a familiar image of an Egyptian papyrus that cuts. Birds fly out of the reeds, a cat jumps up there to catch em. In Jordan and Mesopotamia seems to have established the cat as a pet. On mozaÍekvloeren in ancient Rome are, among other reasons cats depicted.
In those ancient times, the cat was not primarily held for its beauty, elegance or domesticity, but from more practical reasons: cats, mice and rats were good catchers in the granaries.
In ancient Egypt the cat was a sacred animal. Around 3000 BC, the domestic cat are fully accepted. In all wills were sometimes amounts to the cat left. Well known is the story of the estate that are intended for their own cat food cat. In a woningbrand formed a cordon to the crowd once the cat to keep away from the fire, while in the burning building one old lady who was there left to her fate. Cats were often mummified. Many examples exist in museums. The story goes that cats were the only living creatures, except that the priest-in-the holy of holies of the Temple were allowed. To them it had to provide access to the outside cat enclosures made so that the sacred animals could freely in and out. Over time, the most sacred spaces allerverschrikkelijkst stank: the cats were there without their need someone who cleared the mess. The stench of the Temple was proverbial. Our word ammonia, the stench of the temples of Amun, it would have been borrowed. The moon goddess Bastet was depicted with a cat face. In honor of her (or the cat?) Was a complete cat decorated city. There are large grave fields with mummified cats found.
On the killing of a cat in ancient Egypt was not swelled the death penalty. If a domestic cat was dead, the family went into mourning, the hair was shaved off and the nails were cut.
Persian soldiers were in the fight against the Egyptians grateful abuse of the sanctity of the cat, a cat in their arms to bear if they were going to the Egyptian army. The Egyptians dared not shoot because they were afraid the cat to injure or kill.
Mohammed said several centuries after Christ the pet cat. That has contributed to the spread of the domestic cat, well into India again.
In our region would be around the beging of our era by the goddess Freya raging in the sky a car that was pulled by cats. As Christianity take hold here, was with the elements of paganism were thinking guaw done. The cat was banished to the section paganism and superstition and went symbolize evil practices.
Very striking is that the Bible nowhere prevents the cat
The cat and the superstition
The cat, black cat in particular, became a symbol for everything that had to do with shady business. The poor animal would play a major role in tovernarij, witchcraft and heresy. Of course you must then get rid of such an animal and as cruel as possible. So were cats on the day of St. John in the northern city of Metz in France rounded up and burned dozens simultaneously. In Ieper (Belgium) was the "cats Wednesday. On the second Wednesday of Lent were, since the year 1000, cats thrown there from the highest tower. This phenomenon is in Ieper on the second Sunday in May is celebrated every year during the so-called cat parade.
In the Middle Ages was an old woman living alone who happen one cat had her life not sure. Often they were accused of witchcraft, which the cat had to provide the definitive evidence. Often thought that the witch in the shape of the cat overnight demolition by the village to search for victims.
Also thought that cats could transmit deadly diseases, the teeth of the animal would be toxic: a cat would bite so people can make sick, even fatal injuries. Cats Haren had a swallow immediate death. Cats Breath would affect people's lungs and can cause fuck. Do not think the fantasies of ignorant people were not so long ago these things were written scientific papers.
It is also not so long ago that the terrible habit was abolished for a live cat in the foundation of a new house in bricklaying. This could be seen as a sacrifice to the gods for the future occupants of the house to ensure prosperity and happiness.
Do not think that all superstitions about cats of the past. Even now there are people who claim that three-colored calico cat protects a house against fire. It is also very scary for a black cat to come, especially on Friday and in the dark. Truly creepy as it is such a meeting takes place on Friday the thirteenth in the dark.
People and cats
You love your cat or you do not like the cat. A middle way is actually not. A nice bit of psychology: people with a dominant nature, cats would not really charmed. It is known that Alexander the Great, Napoleon and Hitler a great dislike to cats hadden.Een dog is because his own way and refuses to submit to men. Then you just dictator and not tolerate contradiction.
It is like we in the introduction to this article remarked: do not think you're the boss of the cat. The cat is his own boss and the boss about his "master".
