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.

I consider myself immune to most forms of advertisement. Of course I “like” certain commercials better than others (herd cats or make frogs croak the name of a beer and you’ll get a chortle or two out of me), but I honestly can’t remember the last time I went out and did something because a…
The Gemini effect:
I don’t believe in horoscopes. I do believe Slippermander and I were separated at birth. You’re a dreamer at heart and have a great looking Goblin King. You are everybodies favorite, but most won’t accept you. What movie are you? made by

Finally got a chance to take an accurate count of the little buggers last night. Yeah, I know. Color me bored. Since the operation, I have been doomed to sleep on my back. This is not a good thing. I never sleep on my back, but always on one side or the other. While the…

Another year, another caterpillar
It’s that time of year again, when the geese in formation fly in uneasy short bursts and the last spring’s fawns are nearly as big as their mothers. The Prof and I headed to the local Natural Lands Trust reserve to hunt for the elusive monarch caterpillar under a sky that threatened rain but delivered…

CAUTION! As with all allegorical remarks, don’t assume I’m talking about you I’m not. If you feel the allegory is false, misleading, or incomplete, feel free to tell me why.

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!
