The Intelligence of Love
He knew the sound beneath a sound—the latch before the door was turned,my footfall altered on the ground,the kettle's hush, the lamp that burned. He read the weather through the glass,the gull's low angle, sheep's unrest;one lifted ear would let him passfrom dreaming into watchfulness. I gave him fields, and winter walks,my hands through burr and rain-wet fur,the little language made of looks,of gesture, whistle, touch, and stir. He gave me something harder won:his fierce attention, […]https://inkandrain.home.blog/2026/09/21/the-intelligence-of-love/

Raison de vivre
Companion animals - a reason for livingFor many dog owners the companionship of dogs is often
“literally the only reason to survive,
to get up, to still keep going.
It gives them a reason to get up,
a reason to get out,
a reason to move around and
be in contact a little bit with the world outside."

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2025/apr/10/pet-dogs-have-extensive-and-multifarious-impact-on-environment-new-research-finds"Approximately 69% of households in Australia own pets, with dogs being the most common."

Canine companions are indicators of human #health, but more canine data is needed
now that is an interesting idea (and it doesn't happen often that I find anything interesting that involves #dogs). -

So, someone posted a reply that suggested that I shouldn't "replace" my companion animals when they pass away. FYI -- I don't breed animals, I adopt animals that need a home. And always spade and neuter them (if they aren't already neutered). I live in a state without kill shelters, so the way I see it, those animals are going to get fed by someone -- it might as well be me. I am childfree by choice, and honestly think the impact caused by my siblings having kids (some of whom are parents now) is far greater than my tiny cat and puppy-sized dog.

I cannot get enough of Capybaras. Apparently, I am not alone.
There's something soothing about them. Are they psychic? Is it pheromones? An anti-anxiety gene? Super-oxytocin? Do they purr?
I hope neurologists are studying this.
We so need more of this
c a l mI'll help: maybe these tags will help make the connection?

"Want to truly have empathy for animals? Stop owning pets"
by Troy VetteseIn my defence: Sheba and I are both vegan, she comes from a local government pound, we spend on average three hours every day on walks, and I've worked from home since she came to live with me. I don't consider myself as her owner, rather as her guardian.
Unfortunately, what the author of this article describes is true for far too many companion animals.

This is my Boxer #dog Dougal, chewing so intently on his big slab of moose antler, he hasn't eaten anything else yet and it's after 12 noon. This is a happy day for me, too, because I just got a request to send my #manuscript for "The Nitty Gritty & Other Complications" from a #publisher I had queried. My fingers are crossed for that collection.

There's this saying that says something about "fighting like cats and dogs". Ha! It hasn't been my experience. #Cats and #dogs can make the best of friends. These are my #CompanionAnimals , a 3/4 Boxer #dog named Dougle and two domestic #cat in grey suits. That orange tube is also a crinkle toy. #catsofmastodon #amwriting #dogsofmastodon #writing @bookstodon

My Boxer mix is a total goofball! He spends about 1/3 of his time on his back, I swear. He's always balancing toys & often trying to play with 2 or 3 at the same time. In this case he has his leg through that yellow ring & he does this several times every day! He truly cracks me up! #dogsofmastodon #dogs #animals #companionanimals #writing #writingcommunity #amwriting
