These Hot Days of Summer

Please remember your animal kids during these hot days of summer. We, humans, wear light clothing, drink lots of water, find a cool place to be, etc. We probably look forward to going to our air conditioned jobs just for the relief of the heat. Well, about your animal kids? Do they have plenty of water? Do they have a cool place to rest? Have you thought about giving them a summer hair cut? Maybe you could buy them a kiddie pool and fill it with water for them to play in. Remember to leave a fan or the air conditioner on during the day for them. If you want to exercise them, do it in the morning or in the evening when it is cooler. Remember to take a water bottle for them. Please leave them home instead of taking them in the car. Did you know the temperature in a car can rise 40 degrees in one hour? Most of that increased temperature occurs in the first 30 minutes. It does not matter if it is a cloudy day or the car is parked in the shade. So please remember your animal kids' comfort and safety on these hot days.

Change in this Saturday's Format

A big change to this Saturday's (July 22) format - Is there someone on the other side you would like to be able to communicate with? Do you have issues in your life you would like some guidance about? Maybe you need closure with a soul who has passed over. Perhaps you are seeking a different perspective on life. You can talk with humans or animals who have passed over, or with your Guides/Guardians or Souls. Joy will be at New Woman Books from 1-3 PM facilitating this fun event. New Woman Books is located at 213 West Meeker St., Kent, WA. The cost of the seminar is $25. To register for this seminar, please contact Judith at New Woman Books at 253-854-4311 or Martha at 206-522-5157 or e-mail her at Martha@talkwithyouranimals.com.
