I discovered the Best Alarm Clock Ever this morning...
Edited on Tue May-22-07 08:21 AM by Richardo
Let me tell you, there's no snooze button necessary when your uber-affectionate Jack Russell Terrier sleepily snuggles into the crook of your arm at about 5AM :loveya: ....then throws up all over your hand. :eyes: (so warm!)

There's really no going back to restful sleep after that, especially since the REAL alarm was set for 5:10.

The bright side: the rest of the day is bound to be better.

1. Awww, that's sweet!
Doggie barf! I think you have the right attitude - it can only go uphill from here, right? :hi:

3. I've found that the canine proscription against messing in one's own bed does NOT extend to vomit...
...so much for 'intelligent design', eh?

:hi: Bunny!

2. I told my aunt what you said. She said, "Oh yes, I know about that."
I don't know why my cats sleep with her instead of me but they do. Of course, when I learn that Domino has gotten on my aunt's bed with her butt about 2 inches from my aunt's face and farted, I am just glad it wasn't me. She makes a sound when she does it too. Talk about stink. She's rotten. :rofl:

My aunt also mentioned something about being disabled, not being able to move her legs and having a cat make that sound they make before throwing up right over her feet first thing in the morning. I have spent more morning running to my aunt's room to try to run interception so the cat doesn't do that.

And you are right. After something like that, the day can only get better from there.

6. Well, what did you feed it?
If you have been feeding your companion animals commercial pet foods, you may be jeopardizing their health. Supermarket pet foods are often composed of ground-up parts of animals deemed by Agriculture Department inspectors unfit for human consumption. The flesh of animals who fall into one of the categories of the four D’s – dead, dying, diseased, or disabled – is what often goes into pet food. Many of these animals have died of infections, dehydration, or exposure to extreme heat or cold. In all but a few states, it is legal to remove unusable parts from chickens and sell them to pet food manufacturers. For example, some cheap or generic kibble-type dog food contains ground-up feathers. In the chicken inspection lines, deformed or tumorous legs are often cut off and put in a separate area for nonhuman consumption. Also, most pet foods contain the same hormones, pesticides, and antibiotics that are found in commercial meat products for humans. If you are concerned about your companion animals’ health and if they've been soul-coughing on you while you sleep, now is the time to STOP buying meat-based pet food.
