WRAPS, TOUCHES and SHIRTS...?

Clare: This is unusual. My two brothers- Marky and Barn2 are chickens whenever there's a thunderstorm. A few days ago, there was a thunderstorm. Usually Ko Ko Marky would knock kitchen furniture down and pace frantically around the place, whining all the time. Mummy did some wierd wraps around his body and....


He even laid down for her to do some kind of massage she calls the 'Tellington Touch'. His back was trembling involuntarily but he remained down on all fours without a fuss as she sang to him (an old Sunday School chorus-"With Christ in the vessel we can smile at the storm"!!)during the massage. Hmmm. The stunner came when she gave him Dada's dinner leftovers as a treat (Marky already had his own dinner). When fearful, he would not eat. But he was able to polish up the chicken rice.

Then it was Ko Ko Barn2's turn. When there's a thunderstorm, he would find the highest place to sit on. If in the living room, he would try the sofa or better, the old dining table top. If on the bed, it would be Mummy's head. (Yes, 19 plus kg of corgi on one's face is not a joke!). Mummy put the new THUNDERSHIRT on him.

No fuss. It worked.
Wonder what else Mummy has up her sleeve since she returned from Sydney from the Tellington Touch course?
