TOBY THE BENGAL
Toby entered my life aged 14 weeks and he proved to be an extremely strong character. I have owned cats of different breeds for many years but never one quite like Toby. He is very demanding and as a kitten would regularly grab hold of the legs of anyone from whom he wanted attention. If he was feeling ignored he would lie in wait and literally ambush anyone who passed by, grabbing them and hauling himself up their legs. Fortunately he usually did this to males who were normally wearing trousers!
He was always fascinated by water and liked nothing more than to sit on the side of our bath dipping his paws into the water and flicking it over himself. He fell into the bath on more than one occasion and there was much splashing and scrabbling of claws against the side of the bath. Of course he then had to be thoroughly dried which took some time. This meant end of bathtime for the poor person whose bath he had infiltrated.
He never quite understood the shower though. Perhaps it was because we always ensured that the cubicle was firmly closed. He would sit outside and stare longingly at the cascading water and the instant the door was opened he dived in and managed to get his paws as wet as possible.
Toby’s love of water meant that he enjoyed the hosepipe immensely. He would watch the water shoot out of the end and keeping just out of the reach of the spray, pat at the few droplets that landed by him On one occasion he stopped looking at the water coming our of the hose and walked the length of it to where it was attached to the outside tap. He sat and stared at the tap mewing very loudly.
One day when he was ten months old he was hit by a car and badly injured. We were sure he would not survive but our wonderful vet pinned his shattered pelvis together and after a couple of months, while not quite as good as new, and with a slightly odd gait, he was back to his mischievous ways.
When we moved to a property that had been empty for some while we found that the lavatory was blocked. I lifted the inspection plate to see what was there. What I thought I would see apart from the obvious I cannot imagine. But lift the lid I did and who should join me but Toby. He stood beside me as I looked gloomily at the mess. He peered into the unpleasant gaping maw of the drain hole and slipped straight in.
I has to haul him out and as I lifted him from the stinking vile brown mess of God knows how many bowel evacuations. I put him in the bath and hosed him off trying at the same time to remove my clothing which Toby had managed to cover with a layer of vile brown slime. I admit to being helpless with laughter as I attempted to clean us both up and I have never attempted to lift a sewer inspection plate again.
Nowadays Toby is a little more sedate and his main interest in life is the loft and the ladder which leads to it. He sits and mews longingly at the loft hatch until someone takes pity on him, hauls the ladder down and lets him go into the roof for a wander round. Life has with Toby never been boring.
I have owned, bred and shown both dogs: Irish Setters, Miniature Wire Haired Dachshunds, Irish Wolfhounds, and cats: Siamese and Burmese. I have a keen interest in the welfare of all animals.
So you’re looking to get a new dog and you thought that you might prefer to have the bright and playful companionship of an energetic Yorkshire terrier. If this is the case then the best place for you to look for your new canine pet is from a breeder of Yorkshire Terriers. Whatever you do though, stay away from people or breeders who are advertising that they have a teacup Yorkshire Terrier for adoption.
This is simply not a true statement. There is no such thing as a teacup Yorkshire Terrier. These are instead the smallest puppies of any given litter and most if not all dogs labeled as a teacup Yorkshire Terrier will be undersized.
This means that they will weigh in less than the standard normal weight of 4-7 lbs, and this in turn will mean that your Yorkshire Terrier puppy will more than likely be prey to a number of diseases and illnesses. You will need to take good care of your teacup Yorkshire Terrier if you do decide to go ahead and get the smaller puppy.
The thing you need to do in this instance is to find a reputable breeder who will be able to supply you with a teacup Yorkshire Terrier. The problem however, arises when you get to the “reputable” part of the reputable breeder. Simply stated, a reputable Yorkshire Terrier breeder will not sell you a puppy that is underweight and which will most likely be prone to bad health over the years.
This means that those ads which state that a teacup Yorkshire Terrier is ready for adoption are all untrue and misleading. If you decide to check the credentials of most of these breeders you are likely to find out that the teacup Yorkshire Terriers offered by them are infact the runts of the litter which are being sold at exorbitant prices.
Moreover you would also see that these irresponsible breeders are breeding small puppies on purpose. They specially select small Yorkshire Terriers to do all this, and you can be assured that with time more and more genetic defects would be found in these dogs and would be apparent more prominently.
It is also true that you can go into this with your eyes wide open and adopt a teacup Yorkshire Terrier. You might also find that you teacup Yorkshire Terrier puppy has no ill health whatsoever, and that he is very rarely, if at all, sick. This is definitely not the norm and you will be a very dog owner indeed if this is the case.
However, one the best things that you can do is stay away from all those breeders who claim that they have teacup Yorkshire puppies to sell, and instead try to find a good and reputed Yorkshire Terrier Breeder to get your very own canine companion.

The Maid Servant just like employers or any ordinary worker deserves the best. Gone are the days when maid servants are treated as merely slaves. The times have changed. It is the people who work hard and remain grounded and honest that should be exalted. If you are an employer, an acquaintace or just someone who happens to be associated with a maid, you have reasons to give your best to these workers.
They are like everyone else
There’s no need for a royal treatment. Just look at them like ordinary people who deserve the best treatment. As the saying goes, do unto others what you want others to do unto you. Put yourself in their shoes in order to realize what they are going through. Afterwards, you would probably want to share something just to help them.
Respect their Dreams A maid servant works not for herself but for other people as well. This other people is the maid’s family and of course the employer and even the agency. Admit that this is not an easy job. One would probably work in this job if he or she has some great dreams! You would have to give them credit for their hard work and sacrifice.
You’ll be rewarded Doing well to others always returns something else to the person. Just think that not only are you making someone comfortable even happy with your presence but they are bound to return the favor as well in some instance, otherwise someone will. For sure, you’ll get more than what you give.
You don’t really need good reasons to treat a maid servant with respect and kindness. It should be given that anyone you encounter should be treated with your best attitude. They are ordinary people too, who needs that respect, more than anyone else. Doing this puts you above the rest; it does not get better than that.
