Download or read book Zeus The Pirate Tiger written by Big Cat Big Cat Rescue and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zeus. What a powerful name for a powerful cat. Just his name invokes a bit of fear and commands respect. But our Zeus was not a cat who demanded respect; he was our gentle giant. He was the chuffiest tiger at Big Cat Rescue. He loved to chuff to his caretakers and greet them. Sometimes the chuffs were a sense of reassurance for a massive cat who could barely see. Through human greed, his abuse and neglect via the 'pay to play' scheme, camera flashes destroyed his eyesight while he should have still been with his mama nursing, getting the delicate balance of nutrients his tiny body needed, yet was denied. When he became too big to safely handle, he was speed bred with his mother to create white tigers. Born September 1, 1996, he was 3 months younger than my youngest son. I felt a kinship with that. His liberation to Big Cat Rescue on May 28, 2014 was a huge day for him. He was with his daughter/sister Keisha for some time, until it became clear that her rambunctiousness was too much for a cat who couldn't see well, and they were separated, but still near each other. Then he was moved farther away from Keisha to an area near Joseph Lion, in complete shade where it was more 'soothing' for our gentle giant. He ended up having to have his luxated lens removed because it was bulging, and then he affectionately became our "Pirate Zeus". Zeus told us it was time to go and on June 5, 2018 it was clear. No more Zeus parties; no more cheering for the only cat that liked clapping and cheering to get his food/treats. Three months shy of being 22. His last 4 years saw unconditional love, affection, respect and devotion by a group of Angels on Earth who didn't look after him for money - they don't get paid - but rather for a sense of desire to help those who didn't ask for their previous existence prior to their arrival at Big Cat Rescue. Zeus. No more chuffs. I miss you, big boy! Forever loved!! Forever FREE!!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.
