Sharing: A Lesson from Our Furry Friends

Cheri Michelle Author

Join me in a heartwarming story of two stray cats, Rocki and Tommy, who show us the beauty and joy of sharing!

Two Feral Cats Showcasing the Beauty of Sharing

For the past four months, I've had the joy of caring for a stray female cat named Rocki. And more recently, I welcomed another cat, a gentle soul I named Tommy, into my family. These two adorable companions have formed an unexpected bond, sharing not only the outdoor space but also a heartwarming display of camaraderie that is truly touching my soul.

.

As the days went by, I noticed something amazing. Every time I brought out their food, Tommy, the male cat, would patiently wait for Rocki to eat first. His courteous nature was evident in his actions and the way he let Rocki eat before he took his turn. A simple meow from him seemed to ask, "Is it my turn yet?" Rocki would leave a bit of food for him, and it was heartwarming to witness their unspoken understanding.

Turning to the Cards for Insights Into Their Behavior

I’m a big fan of oracle cards and often use them to gain insight. Today, I pulled a card and couldn't help but burst into laughter at the synchronicity. The card depicted a scene from just this morning—my room with its window and curtains, Rocki eating her food, and Tommy, the patient gentleman, waiting his turn. It was a reminder of the beauty of sharing through their endearing interaction.

The message here is about sharing. The wisdom I've gleaned from observing Rocki and Tommy's friendship reflects the joy that comes from selfless sharing. Tommy's gentle nature and Rocki's generosity embody a valuable lesson. It's a reminder that sharing isn't just about splitting possessions; it's about embracing a sense of unity, harmony, and kindness.

Watching them together, I've started setting out two dishes of food. The result? Peaceful coexistence, side by side. It's a heartwarming scene that resonates deeply with me and reminds me of the profound joy in sharing life's moments.

Lessons and Wisdom From our Pets

This lesson from our furry friends extends beyond the realm of animals. The saying "Giving is receiving" holds a special truth. When we give without any expectations, we nurture our souls. It's an act of sharing that doesn't come with conditions or the need for something in return. This concept transcends to our relationship with our pets. Are we truly sharing our time and presence with them? Are we giving them our undivided attention, our hearts, and even cozy spots in bed?

.

As we marvel at the simple yet profound sharing between Rocki and Tommy, let's reflect on our own lives. Are we practicing the art of sharing, of giving with an open heart? Are we nurturing our bonds with our pets, family members, and friends by sharing ourselves more fully? Let's take a cue from these wonderful animals who've shown us that sharing is a beautiful exchange that enriches both the giver and the receiver.

.

In your own furry family, how do your animal companions exhibit sharing? Whether it's food, toys, or a cozy spot on the couch, their actions can inspire us to embrace the art of sharing in all aspects of our lives.

.

Remember, just like the friendship between Rocki and Tommy, life is more beautiful when shared wholeheartedly!
