Animals really are wonderful things. They can put a smile on your face with the silliest of actions, comfort you when you are down and make you giggle with laughter when you least expect it.

My little kitten Milly is now almost a cat. She’s nearly a year old but she’s still really small. And the other day I was catching up on admin and feeling a bit bored with it when I heard a funny noise… she had crawled right up to the top of the curtain, made a hole in it, stuck her head through the hole and gotten stuck.

She looked hilarious stuck up there by the ceiling mewing at me to get down. I knew I ought to tell her off for ruining the curtains but I just couldn’t because I was laughing so hard (I rather wish I had though – now it’s a game and about once a day she climbs up there just to get my attention).

Anyway it got me thinking about the power of animals… they are fantastic medicine to put a smile on your face and fill your heart with warmth. If you’ve got a little critter of your own, take some time out to appreciate it today and you may find yourself looking at the world a little differently!

PS… Here’s a picture of little Milly helping me write my newsletter!
