I just read on one of the post that cats have to have both dry food and wet food. I was told that wet food has no nutritional value for them and that they should be fed a premium dry food. When we had the pet food scare I did a lot of research on different dry foods and came up with...

I recycle everything from the plastic kitty litter pails to cardboard food containers. I also reuse the rope from the old scratching posts to make new scratching posts.

My cats are indoor cats but I do let them go out with me in the yard when I am out there gardening. They love to go out and get fresh air and roll around on the patio maybe eat some grass and play for awhile. I had problems with fleas one time since they adopted me so I have been very lucky. But...

I use my old coffee grounds as compost (or get some for free at Starbucks) and try to compost as much as I can.
I also use eco-friendly laundry detergent and cleaning products.

- Allergens collect in rugs, drapes and upholstery, so do your best to limit or eliminate them—and take care to regularly steam-clean whatever fabrics you do keep as part of your décor.

I think my kitty does. Last night she jerked in her sleep so much that it woke me up. I started to pet her and she did it again and woke herself up. She looked around a little dazed, then went back to sleep. Is it possible she was dreaming? Has anyone experienced this with their pets?

Shortly after posting about HoBo the found dog, I found out that he was micro chipped and his owners were located. Bad news is that HoBo didn't leave all intact. The only way that his owners were allowed to take him home was to have him neutered.

Whew! A long long day in the OR -- 8 hours -- but the case was really interesting. Esophageal cancer. Part of the esophagus and upper portion of the stomach were removed and the remaining esophagus was reattached to the stomach. I had been at the hospital for 14 hours so...
