What’s your village?

There is a saying it takes a village to raise a kid, and I started to believe it too.

Having 2 cats is nice, just that I keep missing my fur kiddos when I need to travel. Because I need to make arrangement for them.

So I was helped by my mom, to take care of them. Or kind and trusted cat sitters, or boarders. They are my village when it comes to my fur kiddos.

Or extended fur kiddos, community cats. Recently one of them are injured with open wound at the back of one of his ear. Some advised me to do this and that. Some provided me with some medication to help. I made friend with stranger because of the cat too.

The kid can be you as well actually.

There are times when we are at pinch, we reached out to different people, and we receive some helps.

So, I feel touched with this spirit of helping each other. Especially if someone really go above and beyond in helping you by looking into their network.

In the end of the day, every problem we face, is a learning opportunity for us. About the problem and about the people around us.

Do you have similar experience? What do you think?
