Hi guys,
My friend's friend have a cat. He has an illness and will be dying soon. He is concerned about his cat. I gave some thought to taking care of the cat myself but I decided not to.
Is there anything I can do for the cat while its still alive so that the cat can have a favourable rebirth. I think it will be put to death by spca.
Get many friends to chip in the money to enable the cat to see a doctor if there is a need.
Chant OM MANI PADME HUNG & dedicate it to the cat.

Ask your friend to recite this
"Dear xxx[name of cat] , illness is part of our existence in this world
As trees shed old leaves and new leaves grow,
As Winter gone and Spring Comes
All are but part of cycle
Pain is temporary ,viewing such pain as temporary and will not last
Up there in the 10 Billion Buddhalands
Amitabha is now teaching in the Western Paradise
Seek rebirth in that land
Once Realised , do not forgot those who you have gratititude in this world
Our bodies are just an filthy shell, subject to decay and destruction
Look above you , a ray of soft radiant Light .
Recite in your mind ,Namo Amitabha
Reach out for the soft radiant light of Yellow , auspicious and calm
You will be born in Western Paradise in one thought
You have not come to this world in vain ,and you will come back to save all you can
Namo Amitabha "
recite this verse many times in a day ,preferably 100 times to the cat
upon the death of the cat ,the cat will be reborn in Western Paradise
Another one is the simple recitation of the
Treasure Accumulated Tathagatha ,who liberates wandering cats and dogs
'Homage to the Tathagatha of Treasures Accumulated
May You Guide my cat to the Western Paradise
Up there , xxxx[cat name] practise Buddhism and
Do not forget to come back to liberate us from this heart wrenching ,troubled , wartorn saha world '
