Inā loaʻa i nā pōpoki a me nā pōpoki ʻōpio ke loaʻa kahi ʻohana, a laila noho mau ka hapa nui o nā holoholona makua i ka home ʻole. ʻO ka hiʻohiʻona o kahi pōpoki kahiko i loko o ka hale e pili ana i kekahi mau pilikia, akā ʻo ke aloha a me ka pilina āu e loaʻa ai ma mua o nā pilikia āpau. E haʻi mākou iā ʻoe i ka moʻolelo o kekahi wahine i hoʻoholo e kiʻi i ka pōpoki makua.

ʻO Melissa lāua ʻo Clive

Ua hiki mai ka manaʻo e hāpai i ka pōpoki makua iā Melissa ma hope o ka hana ʻana i ka Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (MSPCA) ma ke ʻano he manawaleʻa. "I ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, ʻike wau ua loaʻa i nā pōpoki a me nā pōpoki ʻōpio nā mea nona, a noho pinepine nā pōpoki makua i ka hale hoʻomaha," wahi a Melissa. Nui nā kumu e maʻalahi ai ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi home hou i nā holoholona ʻōpio. Nani lākou, nani a lōʻihi ke ola ma mua o lākou. Akā, loaʻa i nā pōpoki makua nā mea maikaʻi. Hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻia lākou, ʻoi aku ka mālie, a makemake nui e lanakila i ke aloha a me ka nānā.

Ua hauʻoli ʻo Melissa i ka manawaleʻa a makemake ʻo ia e lawe i kekahi o nā pōpoki i ka home, akā pono ʻo ia e kūkākūkā mua me kāna kāne. "Ua launa pū au me nā pōpoki he nui i kaʻu hana - ʻo kaʻu hana ka wehewehe ʻana i ke ʻano o kēlā me kēia pōpoki - akā pili koke wau iā Clive. Ua wehe kona mau haku mua i kona mau maiuu a haʻalele iā ia a me kona kaikunāne, ka mea i loaʻa kahi home hou ma mua. I ka hopena, ua hōʻoiaʻiʻo wau i kaʻu kāne ua hiki i ka manawa e hāpai i kahi pōpoki.

I kekahi lā, hele lāua i ka hale hoʻomalu no ke koho ʻana i holoholona. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Melissa: "Ma ka hale hoʻomalu, ʻike koke kaʻu kāne iā Clive, e noho mālie ana i loko o ka lumi hoʻomaha me nā pōpoki ʻē aʻe ʻaʻole huhū a makaʻu ʻole. "Pehea keia kanaka?" i ninau aku ai ke kane. Ua ʻakaʻaka wau no ka mea ua manaʻo wau e koho ʻo ia iā Clive.

ʻO kekahi kumu e kānalua ai ka poʻe e lawe i ka pōpoki makua, ʻo ia ka makaʻu e ʻoi aku ke kumukūʻai ma mua o ka pipi. I kekahi mau hihia, pono lākou e kipa pinepine i ke kauka holoholona, ​​​​akā, ʻaʻole pono kēia e hoʻoweliweli i ka poʻe i manaʻo ʻia. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Melissa: “Ua hoʻemi ka MSPCA i ka uku no nā holoholona makua, akā ua ʻōlelo koke ʻia mākou ma muli o ka makahiki (10 mau makahiki) e pono ai ka holoholona i nā unuhi, a he mau haneli kālā ke kumu kūʻai. Ua aʻo ʻia mākou e kū koke ana mākou i nā pilikia olakino ʻē aʻe. Ua makaʻu kēia i nā mea nona.

Ua hoʻoholo ka male e ʻoi aku ka nui o ka hoʻopukapuka mua ma mua o ka uku me ka pilina me Clive. "ʻOiai ʻo kona mau pilikia niho, ua ʻike ʻia ʻo Clive he olakino maikaʻi a mālama haʻahaʻa, ʻoiai i kēia manawa i ka 13."

Hauʻoli ka ʻohana! Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Melissa: “Makemake wau he 'kanaka makua' a ʻaʻole ia he pipi hewa no ka mea ʻo ia ka pōpoki mālie a launa pū aʻu i ʻike ai! Ua loaʻa iaʻu nā pōpoki ma mua, akā ʻaʻohe o lākou i aloha like me Clive, ʻaʻole makaʻu iki i nā kānaka, nā pōpoki ʻē aʻe a me nā ʻīlio. ʻO kā mākou mau hoa popoki ʻole ke aloha iā Clive! ʻO kāna ʻano koʻikoʻi ʻo ka ʻapo ʻana i nā mea āpau e like me ka hiki. "

Aia kahi pilina paʻa ma waena o nā holoholona a me kā lākou mau mea nona, a ʻo Melissa lāua ʻo Clive ʻaʻole ʻokoʻa. “ʻAʻole hiki iaʻu ke noʻonoʻo i ke ola me ia! Wahi a Melissa. "ʻO ka lawe ʻana i kahi pōpoki makua ʻo kā mākou hoʻoholo maikaʻi loa."

No ka poʻe e noʻonoʻo ana e lawe i kahi pōpoki kahiko, ʻōlelo ʻo Melissa: “Mai hoʻowahāwahā i nā pōpoki kahiko ma muli o ko lākou mau makahiki. Loaʻa iā lākou ka ikaika nui a me ke aloha pau ʻole! He kūpono lākou no ka poʻe e moeʻuhane ana i kahi ola mālie me nā uku liʻiliʻi no kahi holoholona.

No laila, inā makemake ʻoe e hāpai i ka pōpoki, e hele mai i ka hale hoʻomalu e launa pū me nā holoholona makua. Malia paha ke ʻimi nei ʻoe i hoaaloha a nā pōpoki kahiko e hāʻawi iā ʻoe. A inā makemake ʻoe e hoʻoikaika iā lākou i ka wā makua, e noʻonoʻo e kūʻai i ka meaʻai pōpoki e like me Hill's Science Plan Senior Vitality. Hoʻonohonoho kūikawā ʻia ʻo Senior Vitality e hakakā i nā loli e pili ana i ka makahiki a e mālama i kāu pōpoki makua i ka ʻeleu, ikaika a paʻa.
