ʻAʻole makemake ka pōpoki i ka mea nāna?

I kekahi lā maikaʻi, manaʻo koke ka mea nona ka pōpoki ua inaina ʻo ia iā ia. Heʻoiaʻiʻo kēia inā he mau holoholona kūʻokoʻa kāu, a ʻo ʻoe ka mea nona ka wā lōʻihi.

Nui nā moʻolelo e pili ana i nā pōpoki, a ʻo kekahi o nā mea maʻamau he mau mea aloof lākou. Heʻoiaʻiʻo he kūʻokoʻa lākou, akā he mau holoholona pilikanaka, ʻoiai he ʻokoʻa lākou i nā ʻīlio. Pehea ʻoe e wehewehe ai i ke ʻano o kou uʻi fluffy?

Nā manaʻo paʻa

Ua wehewehe ʻo John Bradshaw, ka mea kākau o Cat Sense, iā NPR e hiki i nā ʻano puaʻa ke hoʻolilo iā ʻoe i ka manaʻo ʻaʻole mālama ka pōpoki i kāna mea nona a mea nona paha: "No nā holoholona mehameha lākou ʻaʻole pono i ka ʻōnaehana kaiaulu."

ʻAʻole like me nā ʻīlio e neʻe nei i loko o nā ʻeke, ʻo ka hapa nui o nā pōpoki, he poʻe hahai holoholona mehameha, maʻa i ke ola ʻana iā lākou iho. Akā ʻaʻole pono nā holoholona ʻai i loko o ka hale e ʻimi no ka meaʻai (ʻoiai ke ʻimi nei lākou i ka mea paʻi ma ke ʻano o nā mea pāʻani a me kou mau soka) a hilinaʻi piha i ko lākou mau mea nona ke ola. Pono ʻoe i kahi pōpoki e hoʻokō i kāna mau pono no ka meaʻai, ka wai, ke olakino a me ke aloha, akā ʻo ke kūʻokoʻa - ma ke ʻano he ʻano o kona ʻano - ʻaʻole e nalowale ma nā wahi āpau!

Pono ʻo ia i ke kūʻokoʻa

Me he mea lā he mea kū'ē kēia i ka manaʻo maʻamau, akā inā hāʻawi ʻoe i kāu pōpoki i ke kūʻokoʻa, e ʻoi aku ka ikaika o kou aloha. Paipai ka Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals "e ʻae i ka pōpoki e komo i nā lumi āpau" ma mua o ka palena ʻana i hoʻokahi a ʻelua paha. ʻO kahi pōpoki hauʻoli kahi i loaʻa kona wahi ponoʻī (a ʻelua a ʻekolu paha) i loko o ka hale, kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke hoʻomaha mai nā poʻe hoʻonāukiuki.

Ke lawe mai ʻoe i kahi pipi hou a pipi makua paha i loko o ka hale, e ʻike paha lākou i nā ala he nui e hoʻohuli ai i kou manaʻo. Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, hiki i ka pōpoki ke hūnā mai iā ʻoe a i ʻole hana kaʻawale, e manaʻo ai ʻaʻole ʻo ia i aloha iā ʻoe. ʻAʻole naʻe pēlā. ʻAʻole pili iā ʻoe, ʻo ia nō.

Hiki iā ia ke hana me ka makemake wale no ka mea ʻaʻole ʻo ia i hele pinepine i waena o nā kānaka. No ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i kou pilina me kahi holoholona hou, ʻōlelo ʻo PetMD e ʻae i kāu pōpoki e hana i ka hana mua ma mua o ka hahai ʻana iā ia i ʻike ʻo ia aia iā ia, a i ʻole e hāʻawi iā ia i ka manaʻo. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻowalewale iā ia mai kahi peʻe ma ka hāʻawi ʻana iā ia i kahi meaʻai. E hilinaʻi nui kāu pipi iā ʻoe inā loaʻa iā ia kahi wahi pilikino e peʻe ai. Ke koi ʻo ia i kēlā wahi (ma lalo o ka moena, ma hope o ka moena), e peʻe ʻo ia ma laila i kāna makemake.

Makahiki o ka popoki

E like me ka loli ʻana o kāu pōpoki, pono e hoʻololi ʻia kāu ala e mālama ai i kāu pōpoki. Pono nā holoholona kahiko i nā kūlana ʻoluʻolu ma mua o ka wā ma mua. Ma waho aʻe o ka nānā ponoʻana i ka hoʻololiʻana i nā pono olakino, nā mea kākau o ka PetMD portal note, i mea e mālama ai a hoʻoikaika i kou pilina, ponoʻoe e hāʻawi i ke aloha a me kahi wahi maʻalahi e hoʻomaha ai. Ke hoʻomaopopo ka pōpoki hiki iā ʻoe ke hilinaʻi ʻia, e hoʻomaikaʻi ʻo ia iā ʻoe me ke aloha a me ke aloha.

Ua inaina anei kou popoki ia oe? ʻAʻole!

Pono ka popoki i kou aloha. Pono ʻo ia e noho kaʻawale e hoʻomaha a "recharge", akā ke ala ʻo ia, ʻaʻole ʻike ʻia ʻo ia. Nui nā pōpoki makemake e peʻe no nā hola ma kahi o ka hale, e ʻike koke ʻia a hopu i kou manaʻo. Mai hoole oe i keia lealea. Hōʻike ʻia kou aloha ʻaʻole wale ma ka pipiʻi a me ka pāʻani ʻana, akā ke hāʻawi pū ʻoe iā ia i ka meaʻai hou a me ka wai, kahi i kona lauoho, mālama i kona olakino a hoʻomaʻemaʻe mau i kāna pahu litter (ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kēlā me kēia lā, ʻoi aku ka nui o kāu mau pōpoki) .

E ʻimi i kahi waena ma waena o ka hōʻike lokomaikaʻi o ke aloha a me ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka pōpoki ʻO ke kūʻokoʻa kūpono ke kūkulu ʻana i kahi pilina lōʻihi a hauʻoli me ia.
