The Haaleedays are coming.....

"Dear Cocoa,

With so much to do they forget
the felines.....
My housemate said you know everything, and I need to know something real bad.  You see my pets, who are usually very attentive to me and take great care to ensure I am well pampered, have begun to ignore me and seem to be lost in some type of frustrating, angry world.  I have tried to calm them down, but they pushed me away.  I have tried to offer my assistance, but they got angry.  I have even tried to distract them by playing, but they wouldn't even look in my direction.  Then my housemates and I realized this is something that happens every year at about this same time.  What could it be that would take their minds off of cute, adorable, cuddly me?

Signed Why are they distracted"

"Dear Why are they distracted,

During this particular time of the year our pets often become distracted and frustrated.  This is the time of the year when they are supposed to pamper their human companions (and, of course, still pamper us), which makes for a high level of stress.  This time of the year is known as the haaleedays, and no human is left unscathed during this time.  I suggest that you do your very best to remind your pets who is actually important in their lives, while understanding when they have reached their limit.  Once they have reached their limit, hide for a bit to let them calm down before you try it again.  Oh yes, this is also a great time for play because all new items are dragged out for our entertainment.  Just be careful not to get underfoot with them or your pets will get angry (they are soooo touchy this time of the year).  Enjoy you and your pets' haaleedays and be sure to share this information with others who may not realize the importance of this yearly occasion.  

Signed Cocoa"
