Harley D.

[Frostfrog]

Now, wait a minute! Lately, there has been an abundance of reports of COTD's possessing unusual, endearing, dog-like traits! Now, do not misunderstand me - I am a man who has lived with dogs his whole life through, and who has loved many dogs dearly and loves one now. But in its ability to sense ailments in a human it loves, and then go all out for that human, to comfort that human, and bring peace, soothing, and thus help that human become whole again, the cat is unsurpassed. In fact, in all areas of pure and simple companionship a cat can not be topped.

Now let me say that I am touched to read the story of Harley D and how he has helped his human friend. I hope that healing will continue; that Harley and friend will exchange countless numbers of those looks and glances that drive away trouble, fear and anger. May the two of you have many good years of love and companionship ahead of you, with an abundance of toys - whether designed for that purpose or not - spread about the house for Harley to spread about even further.

furpickle likes what he sees, harley d and what he sees is you, pretty kitty! from where i sit, you appear to be a shaman of sorts, a gifted and permeative healer. your owner must be thankful that he's found such a radiant, bauble-eyed medicine kitty such as yourself. or can i just go ahead and call you doctor, harley d?

best wishes to you this chilly may morning, fair beauty. furpickle and pretty kitties may go hand in glove, but you starshine deserve a little special attention this day. let's hope your owner gives it to you!

HarleyD, what a precious baby you are!! I can certainly understand your "healing powers", as I have experienced the devotion of a cat in my adult life too! She's still soothing and comforting me at almost 13 years old!

I wish the very best of Mondays for you, precious one. Lots of cat toys, whatever they may be! Have you tried the plastic ring off the milk jug? Or a rubberband? Those are some of our favorites!! Just don't swallow them!

Congratulations, Harley D, on being the Cat of the Day!! :D

HarleyD, what a cutie you are, I love the photo of you looking so sweet and innocent, but from what I read you love to play and not only that, you have made your human feel more secure and happy just being with you. I can certainly see why. I do hope your human is getting along much better and more healthy each day and I'm sure it will be due to the love and care you have given. Congratulations dear, sweet HarleyD, our Very Best Cat of the Day. I'm sure there will be extra special treats for you on your very special day.

The Doctors can prescribe the medications, the nurses can administer them, but when it comes to actually "healing" you, there is nothing like the spirit of a cat.

They will curl up at your side, purr forever, and give you eye kisses, head butts and a love bite or two. Cats can speak to your soul and help you heal.

Congratulations HarleyD - you are a very special little one aren't you? What an honor for us to read about you today.

[missprissy]

Harley D you are a very special kitty! I hope you and your momma/daddy share lots of kisses and treats today on your special day! How fortunate for you to have found oneanother. God bless and good luck!:) :) :cool: :p

HarleyD, what a cute and sweet little boy you are! And so compassionate!
Continue to help healing your friend and may the two of you have many good years of love and companionship ahead of you!

When my father was sick and came to live at my house, my beloved cat, Carol, decided it was her job to help take care of him. She spent all her days with him and slept by his side at night. She was loving and caring toward him and helped to make his last days happy ones. He joked by calling her his Nurse Carol. I think he might have been waiting for her when she reached Rainbow Bridge.

HarleyD, what a sweetheart you are and with a healing spirit to boot! I'm very impressed, sweetheart. Hope you have a marvelous day as we honor you as our very special healingest Cat of the Day!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

What a special kitty you are, HarleyD, to have brought so much joy and light into a person's life that can only see dark and doom. You definitely deserve to be COTD, and hopefully your human will join Pet Talk and derive even more pleasure and healing from hearing about all the other precious kitties we have here.

I'm sure you will receive many extra smoochies and treats for your special day, but be sure to keep bumping on your human. Those bumpies have extra healing powers. :D

Harley D is as sweet a little face as they come, isn't he?

You speak as though you're very new to cats, though. Dog-like traits? Hmmm. I think not. Not only will cats avidly chase things, there are many breeds that fetch. Many come when they call. Not because they're trained to do so -- as dogs are -- but because they WANT to.

Healing attributes? I tend to believe this is an ANIMAL skill, not simply a dog skill. Cats are reknown for knowing when its human needs quiet comfort and a soft head under the human's hand. I'm so glad beautiful Harley D was there for HIS human in a time of need and caring. Cats bring out the good in a loving human, even if they've always hidden it behind a hardened facade.

Welcome to the joyful, loving world of cats. I think you'll find they compliment the devotion and dedication a loyal, caring dog gives to your and your friend's life. I'm pleased dear little HarleyD is blessed with the opportunity to introduce both of you to him.

It's great to hear that little Harley found a home and made a difference in someone's life. As time goes by, he will be loved and appreciated more, and more. Congratulations, and good luck.

The healing power of cats proved once again! :)

Congratulations to you Harley D. !

[Merriweather]

Harley D. you are so much wrapped into one. Healer, shaman, priest, and dare I say, God. I believe that God can be found in kitten eyes, doggie smiles, ferret musk and baby laughter.

But Harley D. manages to snatch more than just a reflection of God's love, Harley D. is a small God in his own right. I love you Harley D., you are a Quezacotl to this modest Aztec.

Spread your love far and wide leaving everyone exhausted, panting and thirsting for more.

There can never be enough special creatures such as yourself.
