First, I want to thank you for your amazing outpouring of support in my loss of Moonshine last week. I am always surprised at what changes when a loved one leaves us. I find that something completely unexpected happens. Something that moves us forward and makes us a little uncomfortable. And lo that is what happened to me.
After a rather unplanned exit of my beloved Moonshine I was surprised by who Love chose for me. He looks like a little Yeti, and is about 10 years old and mostly blind. A sweet little shih-tzu named Odie is the newest member of Healing Habitat.
He was rescued from Chicago Animal Care and Control (an amazing place housing 1400+ animals on any given day, also known as the pound), by a pet store in Evanston called Thee Fish Bowl.
He had been there for almost six months. It can be hard to adopt out older and disabled animals. Odie is my first dog ever so, actually the fact that he is disabled and older gives me the ability to learn all about having a dog without having to teach him how to be a dog, he already knows! I currently have a blind cat, Ralfie, and it is amazing how similar they are.What is also amazing is that he is gold and white. Of course I work with gold energy! How could he be any other coloring!
I had come up with all of these cute little tag lines for this introduction but, I am realizing that there is so much more than a cute headline (there is a Yeti in my house).
I feel that I have landed in a whole new place in society (the Yeti is out of the bag). I am excited to be part of the dog community!
Everyone tells me that dogs are so different. It is a whole new world but what I have found so far is that he, like all other souls, Odie has more love then all of the water in all of the oceans. A wonderful reflection, and reminder. Create away my little Odie.
Along with the fabulous addition to my life I am participating in a ton of super fun events this month! If you are in town I would love to see you!
On June 8th I will be teaching an Introduction to Animal Communication at Harmony House in Chicago. The class is 1-hour long and $20 with 50% donation to Harmony House. Come and find out what your pet has been living to tell you!
Then on June 11th I will be at Jookie Studio for the guinea pig pignic! There will be treats for young and old and a great opportunity to learn about how great GPs are as pets. Find out more about adoption and guinea pig care. You will also have the opportunity to meet Fermi, the George Clooney of guinea pigs.
June 12th I will be doing mini readings at Red Door Shelter’s Gimme Shelter Walk.
June 17th I will be doing mini readings at an adoption event sponsored by Pedigree and Anti-Cruelty Society.
And finally, so far, on June 22nd, I will be teaching another Introduction to Animal Communication Class at Harmony House. The class is 1-hour long and $20 with 50% donation to Harmony House. Come and find out what your pet has been living to tell you! And come again if you didn’t quite hear what they said the first time!
Phew! What a month! I am super excited for all of these events and to talk to so many animals and people. If you are in town come on by and see what your animal friend has to say! If you can’t bring them, bring a picture, if you don’t have a picture just bring yourself and a question!). For more information about any of these events follow the links or send me an email! I look forward to seeing you there!
Thank you again for all of your support in all that I do. It means the world to me to have people like you in my life!
Enjoy the beginning of your summer and let your Halo shine!!
