Plinky said, “Pick a new pet to take home for free.” Great Pyrenees There’s no such thing as a free pet, as any responsible pet owner knows! Beyond the costs of housing and feeding the animal, you have to provide for health care such as preventive medication for heartworms and other parasites (for dogs and cats, […]
Meow vs. Arf
Livejournal’s Writer’s Block question of the day is, “Cats or dogs– which do you prefer, and why?” I don’t prefer one over the other. I’ve shared my life with cats and dogs from my earliest years and love both. My parents wouldn’t consider allowing dogs inside the house and weren’t happy about having cats there, but […]

Silly Beast
Oh, for a working camera!1 Katie cleaned the top of the file cabinet next to my chair with a Method cleaner that is strongly mint-scented.
