Well we have had a busy day so we are saying goodnight now.

The painting is called "Black Cat" by Dorothy Lake Gregory, which can be found in Prince Pan Pan's Royal Art Gallery's "Black Cats in Art" October 13, 2013 exhibit album.

We have been thinking about consideration and respect for others, human or animal. Mom knows someone that seems to think that he can do whatever he wants and how it affects others doesn't matter. This behavior causes undue stress on everyone around him. Do you know someone like that? I bet you do, I think that there is someone like that in everyone's life. Just remember their behavior, remember how that makes you feel and remember to NOT do the same thing. Everyone, human and animal, deserves to be treated with consideration and respect.

Time for prayers.

Dear Heavenly Father, please help our family, friends and even strangers, human and animal. Please provide support, guidance and wisdom daily and comfort, strength and courage when needed.
Please help the homeless, humans and animals, please help them find safe and loving homes, families of their own. Everyone deserves that.
Please those lost, please help them find their way home, their families love and miss them so very much. Please keep them safe until they are reunited.
Please help those suffering illness and loss, there are so many, but you know who they are. Please comfort and strengthen them and their families. They need your comforting arms.
Please help those suffering in other ways, financial, emotional and mentally; they all need you in this difficult time, so please comfort and strengthen them and help them all to overcome their difficulties.
Thank you Father for the compassionate humans that work daily to help others; they do make a difference, even if they don't see it. Bless them for their caring so much.
Thank you for the men and women in uniform, be they military or police. They risk their lives daily and rarely a rarely a thank you for their efforts. Thank you too for the firefighters that are fighting the wildfires across the western states, they are working hard to help save homes, homes of humans and homes of animals. Keep them safe please.
Those that do not show respect and consideration, please show them the error of their ways. Please help them to realize that the respect and consideration they expect it the same respect and consideration they should be giving to others. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
Thank you for those we love and that love us back and thank you too for everything we have, we are truly blessed.
With gentleness, Father, please teach us patience, compassion, understanding and tolerance. Please help us to be less judgmental too, help us to remember that no one is perfect.
Please forgive us when we offend and help us to be more forgiving to others that offend us.
And most of all, please Father, more true love, the love that never fails, because without that love, no beauty, goodness and no light would exist. AMEN.

Off to bed we go. We wish you a restful night's sleep, with sweet and beautiful dreams. Then when you wake, remember to stretch like a cat and start your day with a smile. Remember to share your smile and remember to show to others the same respect you want shown to you.

Goodnight.

You are always in our prayers.

Love you to the moon and back.

Ruger & Tippi & Mom.

This beautiful kitty looks so content and relaxed. My black sissy furrs Blackberry, Satin, Shadow, and Midnight (Midna) often like to stretch out in this manner. Mommy says they make lovely little sleeping beauties and so she tries not to disturb their peaceful sleep.

My big brofur Ruger likes to stretch out too, in fact he takes up about half the couch, I'm much smaller, so when I stretch out I don't take up much room. But usually I like to curl up.
