DON’T TALK TO MY PARROT
W
anda’s dishwasher quit working so she called a repairman. Since she had to go to work the next day, she told the repairman, “I’ll leave the key under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I’ll mail you a check. Oh, by the way don’t worry about my bulldog Spike. He won’t bother you. But, whatever you do, do NOT, under ANY circumstances, talk to my parrot!” I REPEAT, DO NOT TALK TO MY PARROT!!!”
“
When the repairman arrived at Wanda’s apartment the following day, he discovered the biggest, meanest looking bulldog he had ever seen. Just as she had said, the dog just lay there on the carpet watching the repairman go about his work. The parrot, however, drove him nuts the whole time with his incessant yelling, cursing and name calling. Finally the repairman couldn’t contain himself any longer and yelled: “Shut up, you stupid, ugly bird!” To which the parrot replied, “Get him, Spike!” Men...they just don’t listen!

FINDING A LOST PET
By Karon Brandt, James Quirk, and Jake Wartenberg
Your pet is lost! What should you do? Here is a time line for immediate action, what to do after two hours, two days and beyond. Keep this emergency guide on hand, in case your pet is lost. Speediness and thoroughness are essential for bringing your pet home safely. 22
PJ MARCH -SEPTEMBER
STEPS D o n ’ t W a s t e T im e ! Get a couple people to work in an organized way simultaneously. In the first two hours, ask family and friends to search around town and up to a two-mile radius of the location where the pet was last seen. Tell any children you see that you are looking for a pet and posters will be up tomorrow with your phone
number. However, keep in mind that many children have been warned that this is a trick used by potential kidnappers and kids may become frightened.
Bring
along your pet’s
favorite toy, or another n o i s e t h a t m a k e s h im c o m e running.
Dogs and cats can hear sounds from very far away and may come if they hear a comforting sound! Shaking a treat bag, opening a food can, or something else a pet knows means food can help, too. While you’re out searching, have someone else make phone calls to your local Humane Society, animal shelters, rescues, vets, and police departments. Contact your neighbors to be on the lookout. If you’re close to a county line, contact similar places in that county, too. If your local TV and radio stations make community announcements, ask them for help. Notify the local pounds and shelters. If someone does find a pet and brings it there, they will know to reach you. If they do say they have a pet that matches, make sure to visit yourself, and don’t call off the search until you’re sure it is yours. Their description and yours can easily vary.
After It’s Too Dark To Search Any Longer Create an ad with a recent picture of your pet. If you don’t have a photo, and your pet is a purebred, use a picture from a book. Describe the pet so an average person would recognize him if he saw him. Include
identifying information about him like his collar, tags, tattoo, identifying features like scars or unusual colorations, or microchip ID number. Leave one detail out that can be used to identify your pet should someone call to say they have found it. Be specific: Here’s an example: “LOST: (Pet’s Name) a brown dog with white face and paws, SPAYED female; got loose from yard on Dec. 1, 2005 (Location where lost) near the post office in Our Town, PA around 4 p.m. Wearing a pink collar with rabies tag and license. Is on anti-seizure medication. Family pet. REWARD. Call (555) 5550000.” “Family pet” tends to motivate people to look. Advertising it as a “show dog,” “breeding dog,” “therapy dog,” or “search and rescue dog” is not a good idea. Too much disclosure is not always the best policy in these matters. A reward tends to motivate people. However, don’t state an amount. If you make the reward too large, like $5000, people will wonder about the pet’s value and some people may not want to return your pet. Always say a female is spayed, whether she is or not. Again, this is to protect the pet from the unscrupulous who might see a breeding opportunity. The same logic applies to a medical problem or genetic defect. People will be less likely to think of breeding a dog that could be perceived as valuable if they think it has a medical problem. That gives an urgency to the ad, too. PETJUNCTIONDIRECTORY.COM
23
If the dog is friendly, say, “Please try and coax her into your garage or fenced yard and call us.” If the dog is not friendly or could be a fear biter say, “Don’t attempt to corner her. Simply call us with her location ASAP.” It is a good idea to make a few copies of flyers in different languages, like Spanish or French, especially if you live in an area with people of many different backgrounds.
D a y 2: I n t e n s i f y
the
Search
Make at least 200 photocopies of your ad. (Printer ink runs in rain; photocopier toner won’t.) Start posting on bulletin boards and in high visibility areas like gas stations and grocery stores in your neighborhood. Tape flyers to phone poles (in many places, it is illegal and unsafe to use staples because it’s a danger to pole men). Ask friends and family members to distribute flyers doorto-door. Be sure to put extra fliers around the playground, or notify the owners of the dog park.
T a k e “F o u n d ” C a l l s W i t h A Grain of Salt At this devastating time, you are vulnerable and there are unethical people who may try to take advantage. If someone calls and describes your pet from your ad and says, “I’ve got your dog here,” use the one detail you left out of the ad to verify it is your pet. Respond, “Does she have a mark inside her right leg?” If they say, “She sure does,” ask them to describe it and it’s exact placement to verify that it is indeed your pet. If someone tries to blackmail you into a higher reward before returning your dog, try to make sure they have the right dog (or any dog at all) and ask the person to meet you in 24
PJ MARCH -SEPTEMBER
a public place. Then go with another person to meet them. Don’t be taken advantage of. If it is your dog, offer a token reward. Recent scams include people calling for outof-state airfare for your lost dog. They might say your dog has been stolen and dumped far from home and they found him 200 miles away. Don’t fall for it.
After 2
days:
Extend
your
search
Go a little farther by vehicle and start spreading the word to your local mailmen, UPS and Fed Ex drivers, joggers, runners, bikers and anyone else walking around the search areas. Drop off or fax a copy of your ad to area shelters. Expand the radius of your search area by several miles - call shelters even beyond the area you think your dog could have reached. Visit the animal shelters and rescue leagues to look for your pet every other day. Don’t expect volunteers to recognize one brown dog from another. If the dog is a dirty, matted mess that lost weight, you may have trouble identifying your own pet. Ask if there is a quarantine area or an area where injured animals are kept in case your dog is separated from those shown to the public. Check the “found” ads in they newspaper each day your pet is lost.
Stay Positive Dogs have been re-united with their owners even after a year or more. Keep going back
to the shelters showing pictures of your dog.
T ip s Many vets, neighbors, shelters & rescuers have found that the fastest way to place an animal back with its family is by following information on tags & microchips. Be sure that your pet is wearing a tag at all times, also be sure to microchip & register your pet. Put articles of clothing or your pet’s favorite toys outside the house. Dogs are attracted to things that bring them comfort. A scent of their master whom they love can allure them. Plan ahead for a “lost pet” emergency. Always have a picture of your pet on hand and a record of his ID tag, tattoo license numbers, and/or microchip ID information. Keep these phone numbers handy: your vet, the animal rescue league, the Humane Society and animal shelters in your county and possibly a neighboring county, local
radio or TV stations that make community service announcements, local and state police. Some people tell you not to put the pet’s name on its tag or thieves might easily lure the pet into their car. Anyone close enough to read the name tag is probably already holding the pet’s collar. It is very difficult to call for a cat or a dog without a name. “Here doggy, Here kitty,” just doesn’t cut it for most pets who are frightened and are often afraid of strangers. If you have a purebred dog, check with the rescue organizations for your breed. Many of them have “Lost Dog” links on their websites. Some rescuers will travel a distance to help their breed in need.
Warnings Never respond to a found pet claim alone. Take a friend and ask to meet in a public place such as the park.

Many parrots are kept as pets, especially macaws, Amazon parrots, cockatiels, parakeets, and cockatoos. These birds have been popular companions throughout history because they are intelligent, charismatic, colorful, and musical. Some birds can imitate many nonavian sounds, including human speech.

A
DOG’S PURPOSE Through the eyes of a six year old...
ULTIMA NATIONAL RESOURCES
B
eing a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog’s owners, Ron, his wife Lisa , and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle. I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn’t do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home. As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience. The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker’s family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped
44
PJ MARCH -SEPTEMBER
peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker’s transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker’s Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, “I know why.’’ Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I’d never heard a more comforting explanation. It has changed the way I try to live my own life. He said, “People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life -- like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?’’ The Six-year-old continued, ‘’Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as long.’’ Remember, if a dog was a teacher you would learn things like: When loved ones come home, always run to greet them. Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride. Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure
Ecstasy. Delight in the simple joy of a long walk. Stretch before rising. Run, romp, and play daily. Thrive on attention and let people touch you. Avoid biting when a simple growl will do. On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass. On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree. When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body. Take naps. If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it. Never pretend to be something you’re not. Be loyal. When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently. There comes a time in life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with creatures who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good. So, love the people who treat you right. Think good thoughts for the ones who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is part of LIFE...Getting back up is LIVING... Live a good life. PETJUNCTIONDIRECTORY.COM

THE CAT
86
PJ MARCH -SEPTEMBER
Dwight Nelson recently told a true story about the pastor of his church who had a kitten that climbed up a tree in his backyard and then was afraid to come down.
T
he pastor coaxed, offered warm milk, etc. The kitty would not come down. The tree was not sturdy enough to climb, so the pastor decided that if he tied a rope to his car and drove away so that the tree bent down, he could then reach up and get the kitten. He did all this, checking his progress in the car frequently, then figured if he went just a little bit further, the tree would be bent sufficiently for him to reach the kitten. But as he moved a little further forward, the rope broke. The tree went “boing!” and the kitten instantly sailed through the air - out of sight. The pastor felt terrible. He walked all over the neighborhood asking people if they’d seen a little kitten. No. Nobody had seen a stray kitten. So he prayed, “Lord, I just commit this kitten to your keeping,” and went on about his business. A few days later he was at the grocery store and met one of his church members. He happened to look into her shopping cart and was amazed to see cat food. Now this woman was a cat hater and everyone knew it, so he asked her, “Why are you buying cat food when you hate cats so much?” She replied, “You won’t believe this,” and told him how her little girl had been begging her for a cat, but she kept refusing. Then a few days before, the child had begged again, so the Mom finally told her little girl, “Well if God gives you a cat, I’ll let you keep it?” (Can you see where this is heading?) She told the pastor, “I watched my child go out in the yard, get on her knees, and ask God for a cat. And really, Pastor, you won’t believe this, but I saw it with my own eyes. A kitten suddenly came flying out of the blue sky, with its paws outspread, and landed right in front of her.” The moral of this story is; What may appear to be breaking on one end, is answering a prayer on the other.
