Out of the Blue

Well, Hudson the wonder dog further confirmed that future birthday presents shouldn't include special meals, as she ended up throwing up during the day yesterday. I am not surprised even her hearty system had trouble dealing with three-quarters of a pound of steak cut into large chunks considering she didn't actually stop to chew any of it... ground beef would probably avoid this, but that's not so different from her regular food, so what would be the point? Anyway, hopefully she'll be feeling better today... second only to the guilt of giving her a bellyache is the displeasure of the fact that she just won't stop letting loose with these really nasty doggie farts.

... . on feeding cats!! It wasn't an invitation to discuss what kind of food/animals you'd launch up with a D size engine or if you could bring a few pinkies back down to earth safely. I don't want to launch 'dog food comprised mostly of grains' off with model rockets or wish to raise pinkies myself for miscellanous other 'shennanigans'.

It's curiously funny what other people think, but, I was just interested in feeding them to cats.

Im still waiting if anyone has comments on feeding pinkies to cats.

Anyway, I've known from prior postings that Bronco is 9:00 am to 5:00 pm in poop. Poor wage earner in teh 9-5 crowd, I weep for him and the poop he works with.

What was really bad, I mean get into your skin and clothing and no matter how much you wash it you can't get it out bad - MUSHROOM FARM.

My god.

I still eat them.

I knew there was a reason I hated them.

Chicken egg ranches smell pretty bad. Friend's dad had one when I was a kid.

Anyone recall the last time they followed a rendering truck down the highway?

Try/try not to get a good whiff of bat shit, which makes any other herbavorial rodents waste smell like Herbal Essense.

We've done work in:

  • Meat packing plants (hogs - a hint of bacon, to be expected I guess?)
  • Wastewater Treatment plants (humans - bad to worst)
  • Dairies (milk - much worse than I expected)

  • What was really bad, I mean get into your skin and clothing and no matter how much you wash it you can't get it out bad - MUSHROOM FARM.

My god.

I still eat them.

All in all you get used to it after a while.

I'll second that -- I was at Angkor Wat really early one morning and the bats that live in the temples there were still quite active. Holy sweet merciful HELL did it ever stink!! Noisy little buggers, too.

There was a lady there who was standing in the middle of one of the rooms wondering out loud why it was 'raining' inside.

"Actually, I wouldn't stand under it if you can help it," I offered from the doorway. "I think it's the bats.. erm, dropping... stuff.. on you."

"OH! BATS! COOL" she says, and stares straight up into it all, mouth agape.

That was nasty (although perversely funny at the same time)

Air rifle target fun, free meals at restaurants, quadrapedal test pilots for RC vehicles, Freudian experiments, and endless other exploits.

I guess this falls under "other", but make them astronauts in your own model rocket fleet. There are rockets big enough (and engines powerful enough), aren't there?

Yes. They're expendable. Buy 20 of em! Few for the cats, a few to breed (hence, infinite amount of rodent hijinks!), and a few for entertainment value. Air rifle target fun, free meals at restaurants, quadrapedal test pilots for RC vehicles, Freudian experiments, and endless other exploits. All in all, a good time at thier expense

>Dogs are carnivores

Behaviorly dogs are largely carnivorous. Biologically, however, they are omnivores. It has to do with the surface area of their gut. While cats are obligate carnivores whose digestive systems do not have the ability to gain nutrition from vegetable protein, a dog's gut, on the other hand, has enough surface are that they can get some nutritive value from simple vegetable proteins.

There is so much bullshit and propaganda in the spheres of human and animal nutrition, that it is hard to tell the floor from the wall.

Ours will occasionally fart, but she then sometimes turns her head quickly with a "What the heck was that?" look on her face
bwahaha ours used to do the same, he'd fart, instantly prick his ears up and look around ASTONISHED as if someone invisible had just poked him in the butt. funny as hell.

Warhawk, you have a mini Schnauzer? Rock on man, we have 2 ourselves. A salt and pepper, and a pure black one. Although they yap quite a bit, I wouldn't trade them for anything. They are a great breed.

Yeah, my wife's family has had them exclusively for years (since she was a little girl) and she loves them. I love the fact they don't shed. Every once in a while we discuss getting a Standard if we ever get the room and inclination for a larger dog. Anyone know any pros/cons between the mini/standard (besides the obvious - size, food consumption, etc.)?

I grew up with shepherd mixes and wanted something bigger when we talked about getting a dog, but we got her for free from a local family and she's a great dog. I've really come to appreciate her, especially since we live in town and have a small yard - a larger dog wouldn't be a good idea. I hate dog hair all over stuff, so she is one of the few breeds we could have as an indoor dog, which my wife wanted.

DJ is also salt and pepper, about 7-8 years old or so and is great with our 19-month-old son. Yes, she gets yippy at times, but she's a lot of fun. I still say anything under 15-20 pounds isn't a dog, just a large rat.

OMG somebody could have USED it? Would have been a terrible tradjedy in Babylon.

Have you tried whole turkeys and live food? I know a Rotweiler that does nicely by a whole turkey once a week .. it's the pre-plucked and cleaned, but still has the liver and whatever else they leave behind inside.

Or how about live rabbits? I know a pit bull that occassionally gets live food treats.

Probably a bit more natural that a huge hunk of slightly cooked cow meat.

Anyway, I am thinking of trying live food with two kittens. Just gotta wait till the g/f//kitty mother leaves the house for a few hours. These kittens don't have a real kitty mother and so the duty to teach them falls on their human companions. Mom cats bring back live mice for kitties to play with so a few live mice from the pet store might help these kitties to become good mousers.

Thought I'd pick up a mouse and a pinky. I'd let the kitties play with the pinky first to get used to blood and something live. I think I'd release the mouse on the lawn in front of the kitties and just let the mouse fend for itself.

Anyone got any thoughts on pinkies and mice? [the kind you buy at the pet store for feeding birds, reptiles, and amphibians]

We hit a sewer main during drilling about 2 years ago. That was enough for me. No, thanks, but I'll pass.

And yes, we had called USA to locate utilities. The city marked their larger line and failed to mark a parallel smaller one.
