Hello to all.

Though my chosen line for writing is poetry and short stories, I have a deep interest in "Pets and Animals." Next to our literal family, pets are way up there for needing nurturing and their love is unconditionally.

Recently I gladly accepted the role of Channel Steward for Pets and animals. I hope to be seeing many of you writing to the Pets and Animals Channel, as well as visiting the Helium Board Forum sharing your expertise and successes you have or had in caring for our beloved animals.

James Herriot, a Yorkshire Vet and creator of "All Creatures Great and Small," is the best at expressing what an impact animals can have on our daily lives.

"I hope to make people realise how totally helpless animals are, how dependent on us, trusting as a child must be that we will be kind and take care of their needs." James Herriot

"If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans." James Herriot

There is no animal to big or to small who doesn't need love.

By speaking straight from the heart and sincerely, we can as parents communicate to our teens clear messages regarding these areas without the worry of their misunderstanding what we are trying to get across to them. We always want to let them know we have their best interest at heart.

We as parents don't want our teens to turn to inexperienced ones for advice ...
