Countdown to New Year

[GRUMPY PIRATE]

That's why I love my puppydog. She doesn't bother hiding the fact that she's a nasty, dirty little shit. :p: One of my roommates sometimes gives her baths and, if I'm not watching, she'll go outside and immediately roll in the dirt to get the clean off of her! She's my baby, though. For anyone who is into pampering their puppies or kitties, I just found a neat product from Basin (the Bath stores in Downtown Disney at both WDW and DLR and there's also a store in the Grand Floridian) It's "Fluffy Pet" soap. It's all natural glycerine based soap (like all Basin soaps) and it's got a good smell. My pup and I love it, even though she hates baths. (It's pathetic, really, she'll fight to not be dragged into the shower--I usually end up just picking her up and carrying her--and then she'll just stand there as I wet her down and soap her up, all the while staring at me with those big, sad eyes like "why are you doing this to me?") I'm not sure if they have the pet soap at the stores, I ordered it online (basin.com) but it really is good stuff. Supposed to be good for pets who scratch themselves, too, because it has aloe and good stuff like that in it.

Will have to give that a try. Our guys have to be put into the spare bathroom and have to be lifted into the tub, doing the tourtored puppy look the whole time.

Yeah, but think about all the horrible germs and bacteria and diseases that we humans carry around inside us.

Yes but generally speaking we have anti-bodies to take care of them!!

I have a beagle that we call the "diabolical infestation with fur" he is NASTY and creates his own funk cloud, hates baths and fights them tooth and nail. Sometimes I think its pointless to try to clean him but then he tries to snuggle up and UGH

I think hes proud of his funk

What? Ted Nugent didn't come and sing his famous song? Actually that nasty little disease is caused by a bacterium calles Bartonella Henselae. Nasty thing,that cat scratch fever. And there is yet ANOTHER disease that is caused by cats and it comes from pregnant women cleaning catboxes. That is why is why they tell pregnant women to NEVER clean the catbox. That is caused by something known as Toxoplasma gondii, AKA Toxoplasmosis. It comes from the cat poop! Cats are dirty little critters, even though they wash themselves and use a box and do not like to go in a dirty litterbox. They carry nasty cooties! That is why I garden with gloves. People who let their cats out...I have found cat poop in my planters and it is nasty and can make you sick.
Still I love cats and always will have them in my house and take good care of them so they and we dont get sick from their cooties. You just need to use commom sense when cleaning cat boxes or wash your hands after you pet the cat or dog , especially after you pet the reptiles, you don't want Salmonella. That is what reptiles and turtles can carry. Nice, huh?
sues

Toxoplasmosis is nasty stuff. My Mom's mom got it while pregnant with my mom and it caused her to be born blind in one eye and nearly blind in the other.
