The Benefits Of Being Generous

When it comes to finances, sometimes being generous can fatten your wallet. Let’s face it, some of us can be quite stingy when it comes to our money, and the thought of giving it away can really put a damper on our mood. Although, it may seem scary at first being generous can actually benefit you. One of the best things about giving is how good you will feel about yourself. Start small, and give some change to a homeless person, you will be overwhelmed with warm feelings knowing you did something noble. Another way to feel good about giving is to give to charities. Not just any charity, but one that is personally a reflection of you. You will see that giving the money away is not a waste, and you’re actually contributing to a good cause (I recommend the Canadian Federation of Sexual Health). The spiritual aspects of giving is something that cannot be ignored, once you give to someone, your sending good karma your way, and ultimately something amazing could come your way, as a result of your charity. The next thing you have to ask yourself is how much money can I give? No one is asking you to go bankrupt with your charity contributions; you have to balance your expenses as well as your charitable donation in the same token.

Cats are no exception to the general fact that pets can be pretty costly. Besides the initial money that is required to buy a cat, you have the recurring cost of food and litter. Another item on which you have to spend money regularly is the cat toys which can get completely off the wall. The amusing news here is that cats get tired of their toys very quickly. As a loving owner of your pet cats, you then need to buy some new toys to keep them happy. Given here are some cat toys which cost less than ten dollars. You can also exchange your cat toys with the toys of another cat owner and thus offer variety of toys to your cat to play with.

A toy which most cats love to play with is a string. The next is a card board box made up from some strong cardboard pieces. Instead of making a box, you may also shred the cardboard, bind it together in a circle and give it to your cat for playing. If you want to buy something, then go for laser pointers, bouncing balls or simple paper bags to get your cats all excited. Put your cats’ favourite food inside the small, plastic, Easter eggs and let then enjoy their discovery. If you want your cats to be all worked up, then offer them some mice toys from a pet shop. You can also go for the cat dancer and crinkle balls which are available on Amazon.
