My friend had a Yorkshire Terrier named Pooh Bear for yeas and then she bought a Manx kiten. Pooh Bear was extremely jealous and felt he was being replaced because she paid more attention to the kitten than to him. I told her to buy him special things too and show him equal time so he wouldn't resent her.
Pooh Bear was an only child, his mama's pride and joy.
Everything he did was cute, he was her little boy.
Now suddenly all that has changed, he has a little sister.
He must share his all with her, that painful little blister.
Climbing everything in sight she goes where he cannot.
Special treats Mom buys for her and she must share them not.
She doesn't bark, she says meow, how can she be his sister,
But Mama says she is and so it seems he's been indentured,
As her personal guardian to watch her and take care,
To see there is no accident and see to her welfare.
Pooh Bear is the dog 'round here and so he'll do his duty.
He is the guardian tried and true and dogs don't shirk their duty.
He'll watch that little fur ball that Mama loves so much,
Show Mom she cannot do without her Pooh Bear's gentle touch.
