I spend half again that much.However, it's not a numbers game, it's what you can handle. I know of someone who has 40 colonies in three cities. She gets up at 2:30 a.m. each morning to do half each day, and then goes to work full time. (BTW, she spends $1000/month on mostly kibble.) Do yo

That is so awful.  Unfortunately this happens often - parents getting frustrated because their kid can't seem to get the hang of the potty.  A client of mine told me her husband hits her son because he isn't well potty trained.  I told her that the husband should be put out and tied up to the fe

That is especially true of my Harley, he will chase, catch and eat anything that moves. He was chasing a moth one night an it flew to the ceiling. He jumped and hit his head on the ceiling. I didn't see if he caught the moth, I was laughing at him. Had the funniest look on his face. K

Yum!  It's lunch time here.  So glad I'm a vegetarian and don't have to face a plate of meat after that tidbit of information.  But yes, cats do eat the whole animal and I won't get into the things that they have so generously given me after they caught a bird or lizard but they don't eat cows o

Lisa, You were lucky because 9 1/2 years is a long time for a FeLV cat, especially if he had it as a kitten. Most cats that had FeLV as a kitten don't live past 3 years. Many live less than a year. If you were giving him interferon then maybe that was it. I have heard of some that lived abo

Actually, a lot of ferals live on/supplement with insects. We don't have water bugs inside here, but I've seen them around, so the cats must be eating them.(BTW, just read that insects are the healthiest meat humans can eat, as they are low-fat and animal fat is hard on humans.) On Sat, Oct
