Give a man a fish and you'll feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and he'll feed himself for a lifetime. Give a cat a fish and you'll feed it for a lifetime. You'll never teach a cat how to fish because now it expects you to do it.
I work for a pet sitting business and also do pet sitting on the side with my own business, Creature Comforts Pet Sitters. I have also written for ten newspapers and some magazines.
