For expectant mother 

Two cats per square meter. Why do some people love animals and others don't? A sense of self-worth and ambition


Every owner wants his pet to be healthy and happy, so it must be protected. If you don't believe in the evil eye, then it might just be worth it to play it safe. Especially when the animal is still growing and developing.
If your pet gets sick, has any anxiety, or refuses to eat, make up herbal mixture: three parts of thistle, one of juniper and one of wormwood. Pour over these herbs hot water and read a conspiracy on it:

"What I think, it will come true, what I say,
then it will be done that I wash it, then it will be cleansed. "
When the water has cooled, wash your pet with it, saying:
"I conjure black earth,
I command the clear sun,
full moon I affirm:
get off all the evil eye and damage from the living place,
all the tides and torture on dark forests,
on swamps, on rotten logs,
where people do not walk, animals do not roam,
the beast does not prowl, the bird does not fly.
Like the sun and the moon there is no hindrance,
so my conspiracy is not and will not be,
so it was, so it will be. "

***
If your pet is sick or shows unreasonable anxiety, pour salt into a bowl and pronounce a conspiracy over it:
"How the supermundane force over the underground is established,
so all evil spirits from a living place will be destroyed. "
Walk around the animal three times in the direction of the sun: so that all the time you are turned to face it. While doing this, sprinkle it with salt and say:
"I destroy black with whites,
I banish damage to white, add strength to white.
Bad deed, back away, evil thought dissolve,
close the evil eye, move away from the living place.
My word is affirmation and strengthening,
I affirm with them, I strengthen them, I close them with them. "
This magic is effective on a waning moon.

***
If your cat, dog, or other pet is sick, carry a knife over its back, moving it from left to right with the tip forward. Then carry the knife under its belly with the handle forward and again over the back. Make three such full circles with a knife, pronouncing the conspiracy:
"I cut off all the damage, all the evil eye.
Recoil from this beast all thinness,
all pendulous, don't hide in the wool,
do not take root in your belly, you have gone over three seas,
don't come back. "
Then go to deserted place and stick the knife into the ground there up to its handle.

***
On Tuesday or Saturday, say about the food that you feed your pets: “Damage is black, but fierce, you don’t nest in my backyard, don’t run around with my cattle! Get back from my yard, yes, step back from my doorstep! From now on and forever, you will not harm anyone. May it be so! Amen! Amen! Amen!"

***
- Take a glass sour milk and read "Our Father" three times on it. And then once "May God rise again!" Autumn three times sign of the cross: “Damage to corruption, and disaster - to the devil. You won't be here, don't choke my cattle, don't roll my cattle! Go to the one who sent it, but don't harm my cattle! May it be so! Amen! Amen! Amen!"
Pour this conspiratorial drink into food for your animals.

***
- During the week, observe strict fasting both in food and in words and actions. The ceremony should only be done in the evening. Place a wax candle near the icon of Jesus Christ. Be baptized three times with the words: "Lord, bless!" Then read Psalm 90. Take a clean tablespoon. Put three incense peas in there. Melt over the candle that stands by the icon. When the incense melts and begins to smoke, take a candle and, holding a spoon of incense over it, go around all the outbuildings so that they are fumigated. Then, in the same way holding a branch of St. John's wort above the candle, you fumigate everything with smoke with the words: “Damage spoiled, go to the one who sent you, roll! Do not itch in my yard! May it be so! Amen! Amen! Amen!"

  • Maternal instinct

Their popularity is off scale - today animals are even more famous on the net than world stars and politicians. Hundreds of sites are dedicated to them, and the most unusual pets become famous and earn millions of dollars for their owners. Animals accompany us everywhere and become members of our family.

Why do we love animals? Why do fluffy and feathered pets take up so much space in our lives that we are ready to spend a lot of time and money on them? These questions can be answered by physicians, sociologists and psychologists.

Copying

Imitation of our behavior subconsciously gives us confidence in the creature and the desire to be his friend. So, psychologists say that the most The best way to get into the trust of a person is to copy his gestures.

In the same way, animals "rub" into our trust - getting into a human environment, they adopt our habits, manners and even character. No wonder they say that dogs always look like their owners. There are animals that have brought copying to perfection. For example, parrots repeating words after us.

But animals also have natural habits that we tend to humanize. Look how tenderly the monkey mother hugs her cub, or how solemnly the elephants gather around the body of a deceased relative, waving their ears sadly and bowing their heads ...

Note that animals in the circus are also primarily taught to imitate humans. Dogs carry cats in strollers, bears ride bicycles, and horses dance with trainers. And even cartoon animals speak human language, wear clothes, live in houses and experience only our own experiences.

Attraction of opposites

Choosing a pet for himself, a person often looks for an animal that has the opposite qualities of appearance or character. Sometimes the owner subconsciously finds an animal with those properties that he himself lacks. Impulsive and emotional person can opt for a cold-blooded python, and an introverted and uncommunicative one will make friends with a cheerful loving poodle.

Psychologists also believe that lonely people choose an animal for themselves, in which they see the qualities of their potential partner- tenderness, devotion, strength or beauty.

Warm feelings

Animals help people to fill the emotions that they lack in communication with people. The harsh world, where man is a wolf to man, tires you with the need to always be on your guard and protect your emotions from the invasion of aggressive personalities. Animals are more gullible, open and friendly than we are, which is why people love animals.

Such emotional attachment more characteristic of city dwellers - they usually give birth to animals just so that they bring positive to the owners and disinterestedly love them. Residents of the villages treat domestic animals with a solid share of pragmatism - a hen must lay eggs, a cat must catch mice, and a dog must guard the yard.

However, this does not mean that the owner of the rural backyard does not have any feelings for his animals. He can love his watchdog and gently slap a resigned cow on the side.

Many stories are known when the military died of hunger, but could not kill their beloved horse, or the participants of the polar expeditions shared the last fish with sled dogs. Thus, they proved that harsh men also have a feeling of love and care for those who know how to idolize us so sincerely.

Loyalty

The greatest dream of every person is to be loved simply for what he is. But this happens so rarely ... People are loved for their beauty, wealth, connections, status and so on. And each of us knows that, being in trouble, he can lose friends, family, loved one.

But animals love us just like that - they don't care how much money the owner has, how handsome, smart and noble he is. Dogs love even the owners who beat them, stray dogs loyally look into the eyes of the homeless owner. They forgive all mistakes, never reproach for anything, demand nothing.

The pet is always glad to see its owner, and if necessary, will give his life for him.

Animals can be trusted, they will not turn away if you get sick or lose property. Therefore, they evoke in us a feeling of love and gratitude - in a world where there is so much betrayal, they remain reliable pillars of loyalty and devotion.

A cure for loneliness

Not all people have a family - sadly, but loneliness lives in the apartments and houses of many. So they give birth to a pet, so that there is someone to return to, so that someone is waiting for them. For such lonely people, the animal replaces the family and children, helping to realize one of the most important needs - to take care and take care of someone weak and defenseless.

The more a person suffers from loneliness, the more likely it is that he will bring home an ordinary ragamuffin outbred, finding him on the street.

Totems and Talismans

Long ago, people worshiped animals, seeing in them the embodiment of divine powers. There were totems of the clan, whose representatives could not be killed, because the patron could take offense and bring down punishment on the tribe.

Today, echoes of reverence for the fauna can be found in animal mascots and pet signs. Tricolor cats bring good luck, and black cats drive away evil spirits - many still believe in this. People still tend to endow animals with magical qualities, and therefore try to settle them at home. After all, everyone is pleased when a piece of miracle lives nearby.

Repetition of the path of humanity

There is a theory according to which each person repeats with his life the path of development of civilization. Therefore, in childhood, we so want to have a dog or a cat, because the domestication of animals is one of early stages formation of people.

Maternal instinct

One of the most stable images fixed in our memory is the image of a child, which is the same in the collective consciousness of all generations of people. According to one version, we are so moved by animals, because many of them have the proportions of children. What animals cause us the most warm feelings? Bears, raccoons, cats, koalas ... It is their forms that are closest to the structure of the child's body: a large head, small paws.

When you look at such an animal, we immediately wake up parental instinct- the cutie wants to be fed, warmed, stroked. By the way, activation maternal instinct increases efficiency and attentiveness. Therefore, we can say that animals inspire us for labor and life exploits.

A sense of self-worth and ambition

In their devoted and blind love, animals are defenseless in front of us, they are completely dependent on our will and decisions. They are never growing children.

By the way, psychologists noticed that children who grew up next to pets are much more curious, friendly and open to everything new. Moreover, they rarely turn out to be selfish. Small child communicates with an animal on an equal footing, while an adult is a higher and more complex being for him.

Animals are capable of experiencing most of the feelings inherent in humans - love, jealousy, resentment. Therefore, they are for us something like truncated copies of a person.

There are owners, whom the awareness of power over the animal makes more meaningful in their own eyes. The life of the dog depends on the owner: on whether he feeds her, whether he takes her to the veterinarian in case of illness.

Moreover, the pet can be taught to carry out commands - then in general, broad prospects open up for satisfying the unrealized ambitions of the great commander.

Doctor who is always with you

Doctors and psychologists have long ago discovered the relationship between the presence of a pet in the house and the health of its owners. Where animals live, energy is more comfortable. They help to normalize blood pressure, cheer up and literally treat their owners.

Cats are the most successful in this matter - they climb on sore spot and they warm it, tune the owner's energy field with their purr in the right way.

People who have dumb pets at home are less stressed, more life-loving, optimistic, healthy and athletic. We can say that animals bring harmony, joy and positive outlook for life. And how not to love them after that?

Animals surround us everywhere. Fluffy puppies are looking at us from the Instagram feed, tits are chirping outside the window and March cats are screaming, and a scary spider hangs in the corner of the room. Many people love animals, but everyone loves in different ways. Someone adores everyone, but from afar, someone is crazy about huge kivsyaks, slippery snails and poisonous frogs

Some people only like cats, while others don't like them at all. But, oddly enough, there are people who do not like animals at all. Maybe they were frightened in childhood with tops ("a gray top will come"), maybe they were attacked by a cat, they have an allergy, or they don't want to let anyone into their heart? And there are those who think that they love animals and help them, but in the end they only do well for themselves. Such people feed the animals in the zoo, give the zebras cabbage and throw bagels to the seals. Animals suffer, but these "lovers" of animals fed a real llama from the hand!
These same people pour crumbs and seeds to the birds when it's warm outside and full of natural food. In Thailand, there was such a case: boats were forbidden to swim to the island, and the monkeys living on it began to starve, get sick and die. This was due to the fact that the tourists, sailing on boats, fed the monkeys. The monkeys got used to the fact that food itself jumped into their hands, and stopped catching crabs and collecting fruits.
We must not forget that animals also have feelings, and they can also love or not love people. Fish and hamsters do not care who feeds them and takes care of them, but dogs and cats do not. Dogs are said to distinguish people with good intentions from people with bad intentions. One dog always barked loudly at all passers-by and guarded his house, but when her mistress fell ill and the doctors came to her, the dog did not touch them and let them into the house.
In addition, dogs have Bad mood, or they just don't want to communicate. And dogs always talk about it. If the dog turns away from you, tries not to look at you and stands sideways, he says: "I do not want to offend you, and you do not touch me." When the dog has a tucked tail and lowered ears, it tries to run away from you, then the animal is afraid, it is better not to touch it. main reason dog attacks on people - the unwillingness of the people themselves to listen to what the dog says. Dogs have a personal space, while communicating with them try not to violate it, because you yourself, probably, do not like it when they pinch your cheeks, climb in your face. You can pet the dog when it approaches you without fear, is relaxed and does not run away. Respect other people's feelings.

Why do dog lovers love their dogs so much? Instead of buying himself some cute little thing, the dog lover goes to the pet store and buys another toy, disc, yummy or jumpsuit for his four-legged one. In general, dog lovers are not normal people. On weekends, when you can sleep, in the rain and slush, they pick up a leash (or even a leash) and go for a walk. What pushes these strange people to such actions? Love. Love for the most wonderful creatures. The dog is always waiting for its owner at home: you come back tired, and a small (or not quite) miracle jumps at you happily. When a person gets a dog, they spend more time on fresh air, meets good people and finds new hobbies. All dog lovers are very good people... If not, then you probably don't know this person well or he is not a dog lover at all. With a dog, a person begins to do what he never thought to begin. He has a daily routine, the dog will remind him that it is time to walk or eat. There are many reasons to love dogs. Dogs smell delicious, they have wet noses. It's not scary to watch scary movies with a dog. But the most important thing is that the love of a dog is disinterested, it loves its man more than itself.
Love animals and animals will love you! Feed the tits and cats in the cold, do not touch unfamiliar dogs unnecessarily, take care of your pets, enjoy nature.

"To understand whether animals have a soul, one must have a soul oneself."

In the same way as in Ancient Greece, also among the ancient Romans there were great philosophers-vegetarians (Horace, Ovid, Plutarch). Plutarch (45-12O AD) writes in his treatise "On Meat Eating &": "Can you really ask for what motives. Pythagoras abstained from eating meat? For my part, I ask the question under what circumstances and in what state of mind For the first time, a person decided to taste the taste of blood, reach out with his lips to the flesh of a corpse and decorate his table with dead, decaying bodies, and how he allowed himself to call food pieces of that which had just mooed and bleated, moved and lived ... for the sake of the flesh we steal they have sun, light and life to which they have the birthright. "

Pythagoras (c. 5OO BC), who also knew about the law of reincarnation, said: "He who cuts the throat of a cow with a knife and remains deaf to the lowing of horror, who can cold-bloodedly beat a bleating goat and dine on a bird that he himself gave food - how far is such a person from crime? "

Compassion for animals is so closely related to kindness of character that it is safe to say that he who is cruel to animals cannot be a kind person.
- A. Schopenhauer

A state that treats animals badly will always be poor and criminal.
- Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy

Plutarch throws down an open challenge to meat-eaters: "if you now have a desire to assert that such food was given to you by nature, then kill yourself what you want to eat, and do it with what you have by nature, but not with a butcher's knife, club or with an ax. "

Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519, Italian scientist-genius): "Man is truly the king of beasts, for he surpasses them in cruelty. We live by the death of others. We are walking cemeteries!"

Even in my youth, I renounced meat-eating, and the time will come when people, like me, will look at the killer of animals in the same way as they do now at the killer of man.
- Leonardo da Vinci

Jean Paul (1763-1825, German poet): "O just Lord! Of how many hours of hellish torment of animals a man milked out a single minute of pleasure for the tongue!"

- Thomas Alva Edison (1847-1931, American inventor, invented, among others, the incandescent lamp, gramophone and microphone)

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900, German philosopher): "All ancient philosophy was focused on the simplicity of life and taught some unpretentiousness. In this sense, few vegetarian philosophers have done humanity a greater service than all the new philosophers, and as long as these philosophers will not muster up the courage and go in search of a completely different way of life, and will not show it by their own example, they will remain an empty place. "

"If a person is serious and sincere in his search for morality, then the first thing he should turn away from is eating meat ... Vegetarianism is considered a criterion by which one can recognize how serious and true a person's striving for moral perfection is."

“I would go away to live a vegetarian life, even if the whole world began to eat meat. This is my protest against the state of the world. Atomic Energy, want and hunger, cruelty - we must make efforts against this. Vegetarianism is my step. And I think very important. "

"Cruelty towards animals, as well as indifference to their suffering, is, in my opinion, one of the worst sins of the human race. This is the source of human corruption. If a person creates so much suffering, then what right does he have to complain when he suffers himself?
- Romain Roland (1866-1944, French writer; 1915 Nobel Prize Laureate in Literature).

In the book "Paedagogus" (II, 1) by Clemens of Alexandria (15O-215) it is said that the Apostle Matthew "lived on vegetable food and did not touch meat."

And the Apostle Peter testifies in the Clementine homilies (XII, 6): "I eat bread and olive, and very rarely add vegetables."

How meat-eating entered the Bible Up to the 4th century A.D. traces of early Christian communities in Palestine, Byzantium, Greece and Alexandria (Egypt) indicated that alcohol consumption and meat-eating were not allowed.

"The one who kills animals and gives them unjustified suffering, as people do in slaughterhouses, will be killed in the next and in many other lives in the same way. Such crimes are never forgiven. If a person kills many thousands of animals in a professional manner, so that other people can buy meat for food, he must know that in next life, life after life they will kill him in the same way. "

When an animal does something, we call it instinct; when a person does the same, we call it intelligence.

In order to love the Creator, one must first learn to love His Creation!

We offer you a selection of statuses, aphorisms and quotes about animals. Philosophical statements help you rethink your relationship to nature, and funny phrases about pets will cheer you up.

Animals are an integral part of nature. Some of them represent the world wildlife, others feel like masters of human homes.

How can you not love animals? After all, they amaze us with their devotion and ingenuity. Unlike humans, pets do not betray. They patiently listen to their masters and keep their secrets. Someone has a pet so as not to feel lonely, someone to discipline themselves, someone so that their children do not get bored. And someone, maybe, was just walking down the street, saw a fluffy lump and took it to him. Not many can decide on such an act. Most still prefer to wind up purebred cats and dogs, royal pigs or fish. In fact, the breed of your pet is not important, if you sincerely love him - he will definitely reciprocate you.

Most often, cats, dogs, fish, parrots and turtles are brought up in city apartments. The most loyal of them are dogs, the most affectionate are cats. A pet is not only fun, but also care and responsibility. Animals discipline their owners. They often act as alarm clocks, but they are not very interested in the fact that you need to wake up at 7, not 5 in the morning!

The only drawback of the KITTEN is that sooner or later it turns into a CAT.

Children also have such a disadvantage)

How much more beautiful life would be if we were all the way our dogs see us.

If every person had a pet, society would be more responsible and kinder.

Anyone who says you can't buy happiness has never bought a puppy.

Or a kitten ...)

If the dogs spoke, people would lose their last friends.

We are friends with animals, because we do not hear from them the truth about ourselves ...

Honey, let's get a kitten!
- No, you know I'm allergic to animal fur.
- It's strange, there is an allergy to a cat, but to mink coat- No?…

You don't need to feed the fur coat and you don't need to clean up after it either ...)

The only member of my family who has a personal fitness trainer is my dog!

Train and do not be jealous!)

It's good that my cat can't talk - she knows too much!

Pets are like a diary: they know everything, but they won't tell anyone)

The guinea pig is a unique animal. It has nothing to do with the sea or pigs.

People also have nothing to do with deer, but some walk with antlers ...)

Is it okay to throw out pets? If you have a cat, a dog, and no matter who, they become a member of the family! This is the same as throwing your child out into the street!

Having an animal at home means taking responsibility for its life.

A dog only hurts when it dies.

Leaving life pet is tantamount to the departure of any family member ...

Judging by the character of the cat, Ozverin and Tsarapun are added to the Whiskas food.

It would be better to add Antibloch there)

About man and animals

Only someone who had never been a beast himself could come up with signs prohibiting feeding them.

If people were allowed to feed the animals in the zoo, can you imagine what they would bring them? Chips, popcorn, cotton candy ...)))

My wife loves animals.
- And my vegetarian.

Mine loves to look after them, not eat ...)

They say that a dog is a friend of man. Hopefully this huge, muzzled Rottweiler is running to see how I'm doing ...

In the meantime, you hope, look for a tree and climb it ...)

But do you know how nice it is to wake up not because the silence is pierced by the alarm clock, pumping up your nerves from the very morning, but because the cat purrs over the ear, sings its cat song ...

And the chorus of the song sounds like this: feed me, feed me ...)

Do you know why the oceans and seas are salty? The ocean is salty from the tears of sharks who just want to cuddle, but no one understands them !!

Say also that they are just flirting with people, and not attacking them ...)

The beast knows who he is and accepts it. A person may and knows who he is, but he questions everything. He is dreaming. He hopes. Changes. Is growing.

Animals always have specific goals. It would not hurt for a man to learn from animals ...

In fact, at the zoo, children learn their first lesson in cruelty. Take a closer look at how ponies look there, especially those that ride children. Tortured, old, sick, poorly fed. Because no healthy horse or pony will allow a child to be put on it. And you need to go to the circus from the very early years instill disgust. The circus teaches children to have fun by looking at the suffering of other living beings. I do not want my son to go to performances, the performances of which are built on humiliation and mockery of other creatures. When our children become adults, there will be another world around, better and more humane, and old cruel amusements cannot be dragged into it. (A. Nevzorov)

And here it is the other way around: cruelty turns into a spectacle and brings pleasure to everyone.

Animals know much more than humans. Dogs can sense an earthquake beforehand. Birds fly by half the globe to find your nest. If people listened to animals more often, they wouldn't make so many mistakes. (Helen Brown)

People think they are smarter ... naive.

But the fact of the matter is that for centuries a person was lifted above animals and carried upward not by a stick, but by music: the irresistibility of unarmed truth, the attractiveness of its example. (Boris Pasternak)

If animals could play music, they would listen to it too.

Quotes and aphorisms

Lion is the king of the animals. Until the lioness woke up.

The male leads everything until the woman comes.

A house without a cat is not a house, but some kind of dog kennel!

And a house with a cat, a dog, a turtle and a parrot is like a zoo ...)

To understand whether animals have a soul, one must have a soul oneself. (Albert Schweitzer)

Without a cat there is no home, without a dog there is no yard.
