Izinja zidinga ukuzivocavoca nsuku zonke, ngisho nasemvuleni naseqhweni. Uma izilwane ezimanzi bese zizithintitha efulethini, amanzi, nokungcola kuvame ukuphelela kufenisha nephepha lodonga. Kodwa-ke, ngamasu ambalwa alula, abanikazi bezinja bangagwema imiphumela ecasulayo yokuphuma ngaphandle.
Icala elifanele: Inja izithintitha ngamandla ngaphambi kokungena efulethini. “Ungazifundisa izinja ukuba zizithintithe lapho ziyala,” kuchaza u-Anton Fichtlmeier, umbhali wezincwadi eziningana zezinja. “Ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho inja izinikina, abanikazi bezinja bangathi, ngokwesibonelo, ‘yinyakazise kahle’ bese kamuva bayincome,” kweluleka uFichtlmeier. Ngemva kwesikhashana, inja ifunda ukuphendula umyalo. Lokhu kungenziwa unyaka wonke ekuhambeni. “Noma nini lapho inja iphuma emanzini futhi izithintitha, kufanele uzilolonge umyalo futhi uyidumise,” kusho u-Fichtlmeier.
Kodwa ungakwazi futhi ukuqalisa ngenkuthalo isikhuthazo sokuthuthumela. “Mane usule inja ngethawula okusanhlamvu,” kusho u-Fichtlmeier. Inja izobe isihlela uboya bayo yodwa. “Kufanele uhlale ugobe phezu kwenja ngaphambili ukuze isilwane singabi namandla okubaleka uma inkosi noma inkosikazi yaso iphikisana nokusanhlamvu,” kusho u-Fichtlmeier.
Kwezinye izinja, ukuhlikihla ikhanda kwanele. “Uzwa ukuthi kukhona okungahambi kahle abese enyakazisa wonke umzimba eyedwa,” kuchaza umbhali. Nalapha futhi, inja kufanele ihlale iqinisekiswa ngomlomo ukuze umyalo othi 'nyakazisa kahle' uzifunde wona ngokwawo.
Uma ngabe usunethawula elidala elilungele ukusetshenziswa “njenge-paw mat”, umata uhlala uhlanzekile.
