I think I won a chair last week at the auction, and if I did, I need to find room in my living room. My boyfriend agreed to sell the big screen TV since it uses a lot of electricity and it takes up a lot of real estate in here....

Loverbear My Mom was great when I started making the teddy bears as a business. The room that is my family room was where I was able to set up my shop. It is a twelve by eighteen foot room with a wood burning stove. It was a great work area. Mom took over the living...

Loverbear Good for you for getting rid of the big screen T.V.!!! I bought a flat screen a few months ago and LOVE it and especially love the fact that it is easier on electricity. I still have four of the older televisions that I plan to eliminate one at a time as...

When we picked up my computer chair from next door it came in a massive box, as it was stored upright due to it being fully assembled. Anyway, as soon as Flojo saw this box she was absolutely TERRIFIED of it, to the point where...

Loverbear It sounds like Flojo was abused with a box. If the people that had her had children they could have forced her into a box and closed it so the cat couldn't escape. It also could be that they threw boxes at her, or turned her in to the humane society in a...

A funny thing happened the other night. I was asleep, and Hubby got up to use the bathroom. He wandered into the bathroom, sat down on the toilet, and screamed. LOL Seems the CAT had decided to take that exact moment to jump up on...

Loverbear I had a Siamese in Montana that loved to drink toilet water, unfortunately he would crawl all the way in the toilet so you couldn't see him in the dark. I hate to admit the number of times I peed on him! Of course I would have to clean him up...

Loverbear I saw that video too, I am sure that if I allowed Khuay outside he would be the same thieving cat as the one on the video. I could imagine finding towels, shoes, and so much more on my front stoop. Then having to put a table out for people to reclaim their...

Loverbear It sounds like you were blessed with your own "Khuays". They make sure we're never never bored. It makes every day like a treasure hunt!!! I am still looking for the hiding place that Khuay stashed all my hair ties. He has at least 200 of the things!!! He...

Loverbear I am going to hang in for awhile and see if the site improves. I know that I was getting tired of the people who were on the site just for the money! I would open my email account for the Lot and there was one person who would have 20 or 30 discussions...

We just couldn't give Turbo up.. it killed us too much. My husband was crying and sick when he got home from the shelter. I was crying and ended up taking meds to fall asleep because my head hurt so much from all the crying. My...

Loverbear Dogs jump on you because they think that since you are the "alpha" in their lives you have food for them. If you watch any of the animal programs featuring wolves or other dog relatives the babies are constantly jumping on the mom to see if she has anything in...

Loverbear I am so glad that you brought your dog back home. It's obvious that he belongs with you!!! First start looking for classes for you to attend to start training your dog. It's never too early or too late to start training. Also realize that...

Loverbear I would speak to someone in charge about the situation. From my time working in an extended care or assisted living facility time is short and you are constantly rushing to help the next person. I always tried to take a little extra time with the people I was...

Loverbear Sorry about the half plain text and the half bold text...I was writing this with Khuay across my wrists. It's a bit difficult trying to type with seven pounds of Siamese boy across your arms!

Loverbear Ahhh, welcome to the odd ole man club! One of my neighbors was that way. He would have a snit over some of the dumbest things. Even when he was in extended care he had fits about the food and called 911 to report the bad food! (that made the...

Loverbear I HAVE to add that Bill called the insurance agent and didn't have a bit of trouble with the agent understanding that I hit a pig! It must be common place in our area. It's the first pig I've hit...I hit a deer quite a few years ago. It was on...

Loverbear The biggest point about this discussion is the fact that if the parents had taken care of the problem early it wouldn't have cost them so dearly! The other point is that animal owners do need to make sure that their vets aren't taking them to the cleaners for...
