Prius in the news.
Reality hits on road to hybrid heaven
I definitely have to look into that federal tax deduction for purchasing a Prius.
Between the car and my medical bills, this is going to be a complicated tax year.

The first person who dares to defend the “dear little poppets” to me today gets decked. I got up early (for me on a Saturday). I woke around eight o’clock. The alarm was set to go off at nine (I have to take my pills then), and when I couldn’t get back to sleep by…

That’s all the room we now have for title display in the most recently updated list on DD’s homepage. I’ll have to keep that in mind, since I like titles that either fit completely, or cut off at a critical word, leaving people anticipatory or misled. A cheap trick I know, but paid authors do…

I have to order my parents not to give any chocolate to the dogs this Christmas. They always insist that a few pieces won’t hurt them but they can do without it. We can give them something not dangerous instead.
The vets I worked told clients that they could use a buffered aspirin, but that’s been years ago.
Regarding the spam issue, yes, I know it validates my email address. I only do it is there is a disclaimer stating they will not give my address out. 99% of the time I block them, but even that is useless. It does give me abit of satisfication though…
I also warn my friends with dogs about the dangers of onions, not sure if and how they affect cats.
I always refer folks to http://www.doglogic.com for more tidbits.
Alli
Yup, onions, and to a lesser extent garlic, can give dogs and cats a potentially fatal blood disorder called Heinz body anemia. Some people advocate putting a little garlic powder on a dog’s or cat’s food if they won’t eat, to make it more enticing. It does work, and in small amounts can’t harm them. I’ve never felt good about that though, and resort to other tricks to get mine to eat.
Not that they need me to resort to any of those tricks very often!
I remember the first time I told Mrs. Teabags about chocolate being bad for dogs she didn’t believe me. We didn’t have internet or anything like that then, and it took forever to be able to find something to show I wasn’t pulling her leg.
Thanks for the pet care tips!
