World Breastfeeding Week

Before I was adopted by my Mama, I was breastfed by my four-legged real Mama but, because I think I came from a puppy mill , the puppy seller stopped me from getting breast milk earlier than I was supposed to, so they could sell me to my Mama. I was sold! Just like merchandise...
Anyway, in my new home, my Mama fed me kibbles that contained breast milk so I could still get all the nutrients I needed to grow up healthily.
I'm writing this post because Aunty Claudia from Magia na Cozinha told me that bloggers are spreading the word about the World Breastfeeding Week 1-7 August 2008

Breastfeeding...
*protects your baby from illness and infection
*provides the correct food for your growing baby
*aids the development of your baby's eyesight, speech and intelligence
*promotes a special loving bond between mother and baby

My message to all Mamas is: Breastfeed your babies!

Great shout out for a good cause Sushi, special hug for you! Woof!

Don't feel bad abt being sold like merchandise Sushi. Now u have great parents who love you and a nice comfy home too. Perhaps a little brother or sister soon? :)

Hi Faizal, good to see you again! Yes, breastfeeding is really important for the baby and his/her future health. Have a good weekend! WOOF!

Sushi said...

*Hugs* back Marzie! Thanks for the words of support and yes, I keep bugging my parents to give me a little brother or sister, four-legged or two-legged, I don't care! I just want some more children to play with me! Have a great weekend. Woofies!

Agreed Sushi...
I do belive in breastfeeding!
Your 2 cousins were breastfed until they were 2 years old!!!!
This is the best thing to be done ever!!!!!!!
See you!

Sushi said...

Hi Aunty, you did a great job, I thought you stopped breastfeeding them when they turned 1. Wow, one extra year was really good for them. Have a nice weekend!X

MEOW Sushi! Yeah, u do need a friend! When we first brought Chubbs home, he was all alone for a few months before Benji arrived. Chubbs was so happy to get a friend and then Phoebe came a year later and the furry family was finally complete he he...keep on bugging ur parents! :):):)

Sushi said...

Woof Marzie, did you notice if Chubbs got happier with another brother? I think my next brother or sister, if 4-legged, has to be the same size as me otherwise, I think I'd be a bit scared...
