Meet Rexie Ralphie Hoelzle-Brown, the newest addition to our team and we are all quite smitten. We have been taking about getting a kitten for a while in hopes to teach our Wonders some more responsibility and to serve as a grounding and comfort object when big feelings and anxieties arise. He has done a wonderful job at both so far!!!
There are also so many parallels in caring for a pet and parenting that we love to point out to WB and WG when processing hard feelings or negative self-talk. Especially when WB loses his temper, his next reaction is remorse and shame in acting out aggressively or meanly. We use his own feelings and love for his kitten and how unconditional that is (even he scratches and bites you 1 million times, you still love him just the same) to show him how we feel about him each and every day.
Our doors are always open if you need a little kitten love and cuddling in your life – come on over and meet him (proof of his love through scratches and bite marks included free for all our visitors).
