    How did you know it was time?

    I feel I"m at a loss because she has good days and bad days. I feel in my heart when a bad day is "bad enough"... for instance today she came out and greeted me and ate like normal. Like nothing was wrong with her little body. Today will probably be a good day. She still acts like Isabell and a...

    How did you know it was time?

    I've not posted about my furkids in a little while. To be honest things have been rough... and this is an understatement. Isabell my eldest who was diagnosed with CRF has been not doing well. She has gone steadily downhill starting about April. I've not really posted about it because I've been...

    Distraught -- Maggie missing

    The technique of sitting down with a bowl of food at like 3am is actually a very good technique. You can use normal trapping techniques to, KFC etc... if you think she is very close to your house. Depends on her personality but she most likely very close but hiding under the house or something...

    Why do people do this

    Some dogs can be easily trained to fight because of thier personalities. Still that does not make it right. I find the best way to discipline my puppy is actually to pointedly ignore her.

    Play biting, do you allow?

    As far as my two Isabell was a biter when we got her. She would bite, scratch, hiss, spit... Well she was an unsocalized adult what do you expect? She has been trained not to bite, she will give love bites or warning nips now but that is about all. EG was never a biter but will give attention...

    Anyone with allergies have this torture?

    Is your skin itching like eczema? I've had problems with eczema all my life and I can describe a similar thing. Though I only have a dust/dustmites allergy so it is not as bad. Cold showers do help and are better for your hair. Unfortunately for me I also have Reynaud's phenomenon so I tend to...

    Dogs die in heat

    Man, I just can't believe that and it happened in AZ a southern state. It gets very hot down here in TX. We have left our puppy outside in the yard at my grandmas before but there is a porch with a big bowl of water and fans for when she gets hot/tired. By big bowl of water I mean one of those...

    Has anybody here tried Align (probiotic) for IBS? Experiences?

    I have a mild case of IBS (just pain usually...) so I kind of bear with it. I did try this for a few days before realizing I was allergic to it. As far as the pain.. it did lessen but it was kind of offset by the hives. Are you allergic to any medications? I'm allergic to practically all...

    I just need to vent... *long*

    ...with some anonymity to be honest. I guess the story starts back in August. This mainly about my job. If you have read some of my posts you might remember that I work in a call center handling inbound calls. The call center I work for has one client, a cell phone company for the sake of this...

    Mexican Food

    Man I was born and raised in Texas so I happen to love Tex-Mex. I also love traditional Mexican food as well. I've had some of that as well... served in Mexico. In Chicago we were hard pressed to find a good Mexican food place but we found a couple. In Chicago it is closer to traditional...

    Traveling with Cats in hot weather

    One thing I've done is freeze water bottles then tape (lots of duct tape) them up against the back of the cage. Make sure you secure it extremely well if you try it. Yes it melts but even my cats who hate water curl up against the thing... because its cold. You can also try rope to attach it to...

    I'm moving with 3 cats . . . any ideas on how to make it easy on my kitties?

    I've moved with my two cats... I dont know how many times... 10? 12? 14 times? Something like that. These two have even moved several thousand miles. Is this a long trip? How far are you moving them? I can say from experience that my two no longer get worked up when they see the boxes come out...

    Trapping for 2nd time?

    As far as dominance thing this is something you have to let the cats work out. they are trying to figure out who is alpha kitty. Batman was there first, but that doesn't really mean anything. If Patches challenges him she can easily end up being alpha. As far as dominance problems if there is...

    Why is litter not being sold in plastic buckets anymore?

    I suppose it was for someone like me who bought a plastic bucket like once a year and refilled my plastic bucket with the litter from the cardboard boxes. Every now and then I'd buy another bucket and I actually use them as real buckets for cleaning stuff nowadays... what can I say I'm poor.
