What did your pet(s) do today?

What I like about it is that it keeps the dirt and trash from sticking to the skin as well as hair. A big gallon jug cost me about $40.00 back then but it can be bought in smaller bottles for way less. If you have a big old wad of hair all snagged up just spray a lot on the snag, let it set then take a small knitting needle then hair by hair you can detangle the mess.

Thank you, that is a good tip.

I've had several long-haired cats get this way as they grow older. It's like they just don't have the energy to groom that much fur any more, or they've lost interest, or something. In any case, as my cats have gotten older, I have groomed them too.

(Did you know that the surface area that the average cat has to clean, including all the sides of every single hair, is enough surface area to cover two football fields?)

Happy grooming -

They had a bad day...

I was very preoccupied with a massive project..I didn't go near the kitchen so I didn't know they all were out of food and water...but they all did come and go freely as I toiled.

I think I'm forgiven; yoda gave me a big slurpy kiss after he got a nice drink...

My pups lied on the sofa with me until the heat subsided. Then we prayed in the yard with a neighbor dog. Now they are worn slap out!

[cinnamongrrl]

They are both very sweet and curious about the teeny tiny dog I took in (ie stole) from My neighbors.

Poor thing is 5 lbs maybe and they leave her alone outside for days with no food water or shelter. I don't care the consequences ; she's not going back.

I'm sure the boys are jealous; she's in my bed right now. But she needed a quiet place to adjust. Now I just need to figure out a doggie babysitter for the day...

The cats are desperate to catch up on belly rubs after being home alone for 2 1/2 days and the dog is sleeping off 2 1/2 days of camping by a lake where he swam laps day and night.

My smallest Boston, Bo, got himself a case of pancreatitis. He is a special needs dog to begin with, and when he gets sick or upset he is just beside himself and can have terrible seizures.

[GeorgiaMa'am]

After I climb in bed, I call Tiny Dog and tell her it's time to sleep. The first thing I see is just her tail, bobbing along beyond the foot of my bed. Then she appears on the side closest to me, and oh joy! It's time for head rubs.

Diva Kitty sits in the hallway, looking at us snarkily, wondering if she'll get a better offer.

You can pick up a wet brush from Sally's Beauty Supply. I have one for my pup and it works very well. It doesn't pull on her fur and she enjoys it.

Ate another chew toy. Is there anything that's actually strong enough to where it's not chewed to pieces (or eaten) within a few days to a week tops? Lol

They need to test them on this dog before claiming otherwise.

beef bones u get at the grocery stores ~ their raw and delicious to a dog get the larger size ones. When they become dry several weeks later throw them out . Their great for training dogs as well they chew the bone merril not your house.

The baby kitty is in my lap with her paw in my hand. Purring.

[cinnamongrrl]

They played nicely with the neighbor's dog when he came to visit ( we used to be roomies many moons ago!)

The baby kitty is sitting next to me enjoying pets. She gained weight and now has to diet. Shhhh....don't tell her it is a diet. Haha! We are giving her kisses instead of snacks.

Mine barfed in the house a total of 8 times. She has been overeating lately, so I think that's the cause, we now have to pick up the food bowls so she won't overeat.

[GeorgiaMa'am]

Tiny Dog has been very pleased to find that she is the lucky recipient of all of my Pop-Tart crusts. (You know, the corners where there's no gooey filling, and no frosting?)

It could be parasites too. Hope your furbaby feels better.
