cat food

I don't own a reptile, but am doing some research as my son really wants a snake or lizard. I have read the articles on kids and reptiles so am leaning towards a corn snake or a bearded dragon. Rest assured that I am the one with ultimate responsibility for any pets in our house so I'm not...

I always like to reflect on the year's events before the new year arrives. 2004 was a mixed bag for me. I lost a job I enjoyed a great deal and suffered from the mental consequences from it. On the positive side, Dave and I finally moved from our psycho neighbours and are now enjoying a...

Mike and I were being silly this morning, and we were talking about what kind of animals our kitties would be if they weren't kitties. The reason that this conversation got started was because I said Jasmine reminds me of a cheetah. She is so long and lean with a small head, and she is really...

Well we have everything gathered and it is off to the shelter tomorrow morning!! I just wanted to share with you everything that we got! It was amazing to see it all together! I got a pic that I will post as soon as I put my camera software back on my comp! Final Count! 2 - 4lb bags of Iams...

Liz brought this big girl home today.. We have named her Jasmine I weighed her as soon as I seen her because she looks so big, her current weight is 581 grams.

And the race is on... What's the deal with the new glider fad? It seems like when people see something they've never seen before, there is suddenly this obsession with possessing it. Even if they're not equipped to possess it. Even if they really have no idea what properly caring for that...

When I was at the vet today, I was reading Cat Fancy magazine, and I saw pics of a breed called "Pixie Bob." This breed supposedly may have bobcat in it, though it hasn't been proven. They are really cool looking cats and they do look a lot like bobcats, complete with a bobcat tail and ears with...

:( Tiger is acting weird. I noticed that he slept a lot yesterday and didn't seem right. Now today his nose is chapped because he keeps licking it, and he is just lethargic and kind of curled up. Whenever Ollie or Jasmine comes near him, he hisses at them like crazy. His pupils also look really...

Hey, I have wanted a pet rat for many years now. (Long post sorry, if you don't want to read scroll down to the question part please.) I finally had the chance to get some I was at the pet store, and there was A Mommy Mouse, and all her babies. They had been someone's pets (the mom) but she...

I'd estimate they're about 4 weeks old...if that. White/smokey one and two grey/black striped ones. Cute but malnurished and dehydrated. I'm doing what I can with them with what I got, but I can't hardly take care of myself in prime conditions. There were four, one died tonight I have to...

Here are some pics I took this morning. She is sooooooo hard to take pics of because she moves so much! Hope you like them! :) Here she is. Listening to the gardeners outside. Getting sleepy. Drinking water. She is a lot smaller than she looks in these pics! Sticking her head in...

And great news! We're adding a THIRD hedgehog to the family! :D His name is Spike and he belongs to my friend Ryan, but with school and work Ryan can't find the time to care for him anymore, so he is coming to live with my two. I am so excited to have him come here as he is one of the sweetest...

Since I'm still feeling way too chicken about the BARF Diet and still feeling way too weary of the popular brands, and trying real hard to find the most appropriate pre-made food I can due to my own fear of "screwing something up" I'm wondering if there's much opinion about this brand...

I had to take Sneakers in again at midnight. :( I was there until after 3:00 am this morning. I am soooo tired. I am like a zombie today. He was straining again late last night around the house and he wasn't producing urine. He had a ultra-sound because they were short on x-ray techs or...

My dog has this icky habit of eating poop from the cat's litter box. Nothing gets her to stop, unless you actually catch her going to do it. The only problem is, she does this while no one is home. Probably some sort of separation anxiety, right? Any ways to get her to stop? If we're only...

I want to say Jodi started a thread like this before LOL..but I was thinking about it last night as I was cutting out coupons in the paper for going to the store. Do you all cut out coupons to go grocery shopping? :) I actually have a coupon box I got, but I am way behind on it. :blush: My...

ok, i seriously don't know if i can live in this neighborhood anymore. and it's not the cat thing, cause every neighborhood has those (unfortunately). it's the treatment of the dogs around here! :mad: it's 12:30pm here right now. about 30 min ago i hear a dog whining and barking. i...

Once we sell our 6 rescued chins to good homes, we decided to get a ferret. I have read a lot about them and was a teeny bit confused on whether or not kitten food is too bad for them to feed them as their main diet. Some sites said it was fine, others said "would probably be best if..." Also...

Are you a Vegetarian? If you are for how long and why? If not could you be? What do you think about farming, and the treatment of animals?

What grocery store do you usually shop at? Since we're scattered all over the country (and world), I'm just wondering what stores ya'll shop at for groceries.
