    Other causes of chin acne? Litter?

    When we got Cici from the rescue last year, her chin was pristine white. The acne started up within a couple weeks of her coming home with us, so it seems like some change must be at fault? We use stainless steel bowls, which are washed after every meal. She was on 50/50 kibble and canned (Blue...

    Anyone get married in Vegas?

    As you might have guessed from the subject line, my fiance and I are planning to get married in Vegas. But it is proving quite the headache to pick out a location when I've never even been there! Does anyone have suggestions for good places to consider, or places to avoid? We're not looking to...

    Raw as a treat?

    Is there a benefit to feeding raw as a treat of sorts, maybe once or twice a week? Maybe if it was something with some bone? I know a little about raw and dogs, but not much about cats. I used to give my dog raw turkey necks once every week or two to keep her teeth nice and clean. I'm...

    Slowing down a fast eater

    This has probably been covered somewhere before, but I can't seem to find it, so.. here goes. Does anyone have suggestions for slowing down a cat that scarfs her food like she's starving to death? I've seen a lot of toys that are supposed to release a little kibble at once as they bat it around...

    California Natural vs. Wellness Simple Solutions?

    We finally broke down and had allergy testing done on our Cocker with bad allergies. And well, she's pretty much going to have to end up with a very simple food. As far as foods go, she is allergic to chicken, turkey, duck, barley, potato, carrots, peas, and I may be forgetting something but I...

    Canidae Formula Change

    I was concerned to find out that Canidae is changing their formula. The Cockers do pretty well on it, better than anything else I have tried. But now they are adding in several more grain sources, and I worry about the effect this would have on them with their allergies. They claim they have...

    Preventic Collar?

    It's kind of strange.. only one of the dogs is picking up ticks. I haven't found any on any of the other dogs. None of them have fleas, I haven't seen a single flea all year on anyone. Our vet just started carrying this collar this year, and I was just curious if it would be safer and more...

    Bird cages?

    I know I've seen people here mention having birds before.. so I thought it was worth a try to ask. Has anyone ever made their own bird cage? They are sooo expensive if you want a bigger one, and they just don't look like they're worth those prices at all! If you don't build them.. do you find...

    Scratched glasses

    My glasses have so many tiny scratches, it drives me crazy.. so I'm going to be looking into getting new ones as soon as I work up the courage to go out and face the people for an exam and all. I don't clean them perfectly like they tell you to, but I'm not hacking at them with paper towels...

    You'll be missed, Chase

    Unfortunately, despite all my best efforts, Chase passed away sometime early Tuesday morning while asleep in his bed. In those last couple of days, he started to go downhill pretty quickly. He lost what little weight he had gained back, and it was obviously time for him to go. I take some...
