Home My WebLink AboutTimes-Advocate, 1981-08-12, Page 6Page 6 Timet Advocate, August 12, 1981 Odds'n ends By ELAINE TOWNSHEND My pet was lonely. She never complained. Complaining wasn't part of her nature. but 1 could tell Caven women enjoy readings The ladies of Caven Presbyterian Church Women began with Dessert and a social time for their summer meeting. In the absence of the president, Mrs. H. Laing called the business to order. Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Strang took the devotional period, based on scripture and readings from Jeanette Lockerbies' book. A cup of Sugar Neighbour. Mrs. Alvin Moir spoke of the faithfulness of Mrs. Thomas Pryde to the Work of the W.M.S. in Caven Church. Mrs. Carmen Cann presented her with an Honorary Life Membership in the Womens Missionary Society -Western Division. The ladies are planning a pie booth at the Zurich Bean Festival. The program committee convened by Mrs. Dougall said we were to be prepared for any thing and a lively time followed with contests and readings. Best for the pet just by looking at her. 1 could tell by the way she moped around the house all day. She'd lay inside the door gazing wistfully through the open screen. and at night. she'd stay in a cor- ner while t watched tv. She was still faithful to me. doing everything I ex- pected of her and staving wherever l put her. But I felt guilty knowing she was un- happy Finally the solution came to me She needed a mate. I know what you're thinking. What was I going to do with a bunch of Tittle pets around the apartment? I wasn't worried. After her years of devotion. she deserved a lit- tle fun One day I brought her mate home and introduced them. At first they acted coy and seemed almost indifferent to each .other. Each staked out a corner of the apartment as private territory and stayed there. In time and with a little manoeuvering from me. they began to share a cor- ner. Soon they were soaking up the sunshine together in- side the front door. The results were not what I expected. Instead of her mate's enthusiasm rubbing off on her. the despondency of my first pet influenced him. Soon I had two unhappy pets instead of one. After many sleepless nights. I knew what I had to do. 1 always believed it was cruel to keep pets away from their natural habitat if they could not adapt to their new surroundings. The best thing I could do for my pets was take them hack where they belonged and give them freedom. One Saturday I took thein for a car ride. They perked up immediately, sitting on the dash and staring straight ahead. They seemed to know a change was coming. When we got to the beach, I laid them gently on the sand among pebbles Targe and small. Then I walked away- I looked back once. but they weren't even watching me. They were engrossed in the new but strangely familiar surroun- dings and friends. 1 went back to visit only once. It almost broke my heart. Atter an hour of searching. I finally found then but they showed no signs of recognizing me. How could they forget so quickly'.' In my heart, I know 1 did the right thing, even though I miss them terribly. I miss them most when the fan blows all my papers around the office and I have no paperweight to grab. I miss them. too, when the wind blows the front door shut in a visitor's face because there is no door stop. I take comfort; though, in knowing pets are lying in the sun sgntewkere on a san- dy beach with a bunch of lit- tle pebbles around them. 0 4 KT t MR. AND MRS.
