    Ticker Generators

    Ok computer savvy ones! I'm usually awesome at finding these kinds of things on my own, but am coming up pretty much empty this time... I was updating my MySpace page today and I wanted to create a couple of those small countdown/up tickers. I have one already that's like a big box with a...

    Semi-urgent... Soft Paw possibly into pad

    I've been using the soft paws on Ollie for years now with no trouble but I just noticed a problem now... He was holding up his paw at dinner tonight in a way that wasn't just his usual begging so I just crouched over him to have a look and it appears that one cap has refused to fall off - I've...

    Ollie's healthy as a..... horse?

    Ollie went to visit Dr. "aunt" Kathy today... the original reason for taking him was he chipped off a chunk of one of his fangs and I wanted to make sure that nothing needed to be done to it, but I got his annual done while we were there since he usually goes in October for that. Lots of good...

    We've joined the Furmi-nation!

    I order Ollie's Frontline and Heartguard from Entirely Pets online and when I go to place an order, I always check out what they have on sale and this time around they had the furminators on sale for a decent price, so I got the yellow medium sized one - I plan to use it on my black lab as...

    Noticed a possible tooth problem :o(

    This morning, Ollie gave me a big sleepy breath yawn right in my face (thanks, kid) but I noticed that it looks like the tip of his one fang has either broken off or worn down (I know my 14 year old dog's teeth have worn down - she's only ever eaten hard food thus far and although they're worn...

    Swiffer Wet Jet harmful to pets - legit?

    My mom got this email forwarded to her from a friend about how using Swiffer Wet Jet has killed a few pets - I'll copy and paste it below... I want to know if this is legit or not.... we use it in the kitchen, but the critters are not allowed in the kitchen while the floor is still wet from the...

    Where to buy Rescue Remedy in-store?

    I know I can get it at Whole Foods, but our Whole Foods is kind of a pain in the butt to get to (I will go there before ordering it from online though)... but are there any other common in-store places to get it? I've never looked in Petsmart or Petco for it... It's actually for my 14 year old...

    But that was my buggie mama!

    I was just in the kitchen to get some juice before bed and Oliver was in there with me... I noticed a small spider on the wall, so I flicked it to the floor for him (eh, better than leaving bug guts on my wall lol)... well he pawed it and watched it and tried once or twice to sniff/eat it and...

    Kenny on Conan - I'm drooling!

    OMG Kenny Chesney was just on Conan O'Brien (and my idiot brain didn't DVR it ) Like most women into country music, I'm gaga over him and I'm going to see him ON SATURDAY! I'm soooo excited and can't wait! I went last year too and tickets to this year were actually my birthday present I've...

    Ollie being crazy over something in the yard

    So I started about the nightly routine of rounding up Oliver to get him into my room so we can get to bed (He gets shut in my room with me at night so he stays out of trouble and off my parents' bed - mom's a little allergic)... I go downstairs and he's in the living room but darts towards the...

    So I'm adding a movie thread now haha So late last night I'm flipping through the digital tv guide basically for something to fall asleep to that wasn't SportsCenter (I watch that show like a million times a day thanks to nothing else being on the 79462784256 channels we have)... I came across...

    Oliver mesmerized by virtual pet!

    So Facebook has an application where you can "adopt" a virtual dog to your profile... I'm not huge on adding a zillion Facebook apps like some people, but I do have a few and when I saw that this app had a black lab to adopt I HAD to do it haha (my real dog is a black lab).... well you're...

    Oliver's a kibble crook! (Health Q though)

    I'm posting this in health cuz I do have a question about the health end of this story and not a "hey look what Ollie did" story... but move if needed! So the set up to my eventual question: Oliver's food dishes are in my room and the dog (black lab) has an elevated feeding station downstairs...

    Oliver is NOT a Cardinal fan!

    Ok, not talking baseball (this time) although Oliver is a Red Sox fan by default cuz his mama is a Sox fan (I even have the Orange Tabby Build-a-Bear in a Sox uniform... his name is Ollie Sox) Oliver was just out on the deck in his harness and tie out since it's nice out... well I kept hearing...

    Remifemin free sample?

    Ok so this is really about my mom but I know we have people of all ages on here, so I thought maybe people could help I frequent a "Freebies" website like once a day - it's apparently a woman who kinda checks out all the freebie offers and lists the ones that are actually free for others to...

    Oliver, you're not a desert cat! Why choose the heat?

    So Oliver baffles me yet again! (I think that's part of his purpose in life) We're finishing the last day of a 4 day heat wave here - temps in the high 90s with index in the 100s (it's starting to rain right now though yay!!!) Well I've been keeping the AC on in my room all day on energy saver...

    Gnats in kitty grass

    I've been growing Oliver oat grass from seed for years now and he loves it... I used to let it sprout by the back sliding door then bring it up to my room but I've recently found it lasts much longer if I just leave it by the door... well I had noticed in the past that when the grass would get...
