With our Master and Mistress having to spend a lot of time in different places they felt the need to sit down with us and having one of those difficult talks. What would happen if anything happened to one of them and what would happen if anything happened to one of us. You hope it\u2019s the sort of thing in life you next have to plan for, but as they pointed out it\u2019s best to have that discussion when everyone is feeling fine and not leave it until there is the stress of a difficult situation to deal with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remind your humans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Mistress said you should remind your humans how important it is to make provision for you if something happens to them. Sometimes the best option for you is not one that others who are dealing with a situation may be aware of. They even asked each of us where we would like our ashes scattered when it came to it. Oh dear, that was difficult. Let\u2019s just hope we don\u2019t have to face that for any of us for a very long time to come. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">On a brighter\nnote<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At least on a\nmuch brighter note, yesterday did not involve alpacas. We had our Mistress\u2019s\nundivided attention and she has promised that it will be quite some time before\nshe goes to see Pasha again. She did tell us about one of the other little\nalpacas who has been born with problems with his knees. He has splints for his\nlegs and is really struggling. I felt very sad for him as I know what it\u2019s like\nto have poorly legs. His front legs have knees rather than elbows, but it\u2019s\nmuch the same thing. I wish I could take him swimming as that has helped me so\nmuch. Our Mistress did tell his owner how good my hydrotherapy is, but I don\u2019t\nknow if there are any hydrotherapy pools for alpacas. I hope he can get to be\nstronger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a great\nSunday<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aristotle<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Difficult talks There are difficult talks which are best avoided and there are difficult talks which really need to take place.
