TUCKER and "The BULL"

This is my cat Tucker. He brings a lot of pleasure to me for sure. However, I let him go out and play in the yard quite frequently. However, he doesn't just stay in the yard. We have a pen of cows and a couple of bulls next door eating off the grass. There is one BULL, we (our friend John, Neill, and I) we think he was the runt of the "cows/bulls" that year. Tucker seems to like things Bigger than him, and the neat thing about it is I don't think he realizes they are bigger than him. Our friend John was driving down the lane one day and he looked in the pasture, and Tucker was sitting on the back of that BULL. He had to look twice. The Bull just let him. They just sat together for one hour as he watched. then Tucker jumped off the back of the Bull.

The next day John was driving down the lane again, and he saw this Bull trotting along behind something. He wasn't quite sure of what it was until he got out of his truck and looked, and sure enough, Tucker and the Bull were playing chase, or Catch me if you Can. The Bull would trot behind Tucker for a little while, and then they would change and Tucker would chase the Bull and trot after him at the same pace.

You know we can learn a lot from animals. Tucker and apparently this Bull didn't care that each of them were different and of a different size, or a different kind of animal. All they knew is that they had fun together. They didn't care what we thought even though we found it quite humorous a Cat playing with a Bull and vice versa.

I think as group of people we just need to take each other for who we are. That we are Heavenly Father's Children and be happy with that and not worry about all the little stuff. I could go on for probably another page about the horses Tucker plays with etc. I've learned a lot from my cats in a very humbling and humerous way. Hopefully we can all be less judging of our Heavenly Father's children and creatures.

Everyone have a great day!!
