TV Crazy

In our house a TV is always on...I know, not good. The funniest part is that some of the pets have taken to watching too! We used to have a bunny that loved a commercial that showed a big, green, grassy field. Both of our cats like watching TV with us. Sometimes, I'll get a stern look from Jasmine when I turn it off! LOL ZuZu decided on this day, that she'd sit and watch Stuart Little.

Entrecard Droppers...Sorry!

I want to post an apology to all of my fellow EC droppers.

I have been having trouble with some of my linked blogs and can't pass security for some reason. I have brought this to their attention twice so far.

Since this has been going on, I cannot drop back or drop at all on some! I am really sorry and will definitely get you back once this is all fixed.

Do you Believe?

Yeah, I know...not quite the animal we had in mind for today's discussion. Sorry.

Today has revealed some of the weirdest news. Not often do we hear on our sets of a bigfoot body and video of a chubacabra. I did not post any photos here due to copyrights and such but photos and video have been released of both and you may see them via the links following this post.

The Bigfoot body was found a few weeks ago, sometime in late July, in a Georgia forest by two men, Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer of bigfoottracker.com, after claiming to discover a family of them. When disclosing this information to a radio show, they announced that no one person except for famed Bigfoot hunter/expert, Tom Biscardi (www.searchingforbigfoot.com) would be allowed to examine the body. BTW, Tom Biscardi is a local in my area. Currently, DNA test and scientific examinations are bring done on the body and will be released at a press conference on Fri. 8/15 from 12:00pm-1:00pm in Palo Alto, Ca. Too bad it's only open to media, I'd love to go to that one!

The chubacaras that have been found or seen in Cuero, Texas raise huge controversy. Most people say it is some type of hairless dog or coyote. Others swear up and down that it isn't. DNA tests have been done on a body found earlier have found that it is in fact a type of coyote. I don't know what all the fuss is about, really. I think they should be publicising it as a new breed or hybrid.

Thanks for sticking with me on this one...I couldn't help myself. LOL!

We Are Sad Today

I was just 'dropping' my cards for the night on entrecard and I stopped by one of my favorite blogs, Daisy the Curly Cat and saw a post pertaining to the loss of a somebody. I thought I was reading wrong but sadly I wasn't. A mommy blogger has lost her baby this weekend.

Baby "Sprout" had a terrible fall on Saturday and did not recover. She passed away on Sunday in her mother's arms. Please stop by and offer some comforting words to Tracey, who has just lost her dear Violette Noelle at Survival of the Furriest and her Godmother Lynne at Darling Millie. Currently, donations are being raised to fly Lynne out for the funeral. If you happen to have anything at all to spare, I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated.

I know we mothers fear this kind of reality all the time, whether we address it or not. I know that I can let it get to me if I think about it too much. My heart is so heavy right now. I do not know Tracey, having just found her blog, but as a mother with a baby girl, I can't help but cry. As a mother who has had a miscarriage, I can only begin to feel the pain she must be feeling.

My Favorite Bears

So, I know that it may be a bit cliche to be talking about panda bears during the Olympics but I'm going to do it anyway. lol

I've always loved pandas like most other people. Their coloring and body language is so cute and innocent. They just look like giant stuffed animals. Some people let this fool them and they try to get too close.

Good thing he was wearing a jacket!

After the huge earthquake in China, the first thing many people thought about was the panda bears. Although I hate knowing that there are so many living in captivity, I have to admit that I'm glad they were in a place where they could be saved quickly.

Awww...So cute. I'm glad they are safe and okay. One even gave birth to healthy twins after she was moved.

What's Your Brand of Food?

I've always been curious...what do other people feed their cats?

As we know, I used to work at a boarding facility for cats. We had about 6 brands of dry food and 3-4 of wet and owners could also leave their own if we didn't have it. One lady even cooked her cat rice and chicken or turkey and froze it!

When it comes to feeding my own, I've always been at a loss in front of the numerous choices of food. What each cat needs varies so greatly that it becomes dizzying. My cats are indoor pets so I've always stuck to a hairball type of dry food. Then they came out with the indoor formula. And there are some that say hairball and indoor. I naturally assumed that they are one in the same. Some are too high in fatty protein but that's also supposed to be good for active kitties.

Here's the dilemma...I have one that's more active than the other. It is completely impossible for us to separate them every time they eat so I have to use the same food. I can't ever tell if they are benefiting from any particular one so I never know if it's the right one. *sigh*

What do you use?
