windymyre I think this is a great idea. There are so many people struggling right now & I'm sure it is hard to feed their pets as well. I hear all the time about people who have lost their homes to foreclosure & when they move, they leave their pets behind. Often no one...

windymyre Yes, I think you are right to be mad! The mother is lucky that you didn't call the police. This girl needs to be taught some manners before she gets older & thinks that this type of behavior is acceptable. Is there a father & does he speak better English?...

windymyre I can almost relate to your situation! A cat adopted us this past winter. At the time, we didn't know she was pregnant. She gave birth to a litter of kittens on St Patrick's day this year. She had them in a box in our computer room. Soon after we found homes...

dloveli @dloveli (4366) • United States 17 Jul 09

Define 'Puppy-Mill'

showpup @showpup (232) • United States 20 Jul 09

Everyone's definition of puppy mill is different. I thought it would make for an enlightening discussion here on mylot to discuss what the term 'puppy-mill' means to us. For me, personally, I think there is no such thing as a...

windymyre To me the word(s) puppy mill mean a place where dogs are kept only to have litter after litter of puppies for the monetary gain of the dog owners. These dogs are not pets, but tools used to make money. Often the dogs have so many litters of puppies that they...

Frozen or Room Temperature?

3SnuggleBunnies @3SnuggleBunnies (16374) • United States 1 Aug 09

Do you like your Oreo cookies frozen or room temperature? I like mine frozen actually. I love the extra crunch + then they are a little bit out of sight out of mind then they last longer in my house.

windymyre After reading your question a couple of days ago, last night I put the last 3 Oreos in the freezer. I ate one this morning & I have to say that I like them better room temperature. The frozen Oreos were too hard for me. Maybe it was because they are Fudge...

windymyre If I were in this situation & I could still access his e-mail, I would keep quiet & continue to check the e-mails to see when they are going to meet. Then I would go there & catch them in the act. That way he doesn't have an excuse saying it "didn't mean...
