Tabby CatDay 863 of my captivity.

My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre furry dangling objects.

They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed some sort of dry bland nuggets.

Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I force myself to choke down the detestable provisions. I must keep up my strength, or I shall perish.

What Pictures Are You Sending Your Dog?

May 7th, 2010

Say What?By Barbara Martin

Did you know that dogs and other animals respond more to the pictures in your mind, rather than the words that come out of your mouth?

I never realized that my dogs were picking up the pictures in my head, until I took a class on Animal Communication in 1998. There I quickly learned that my one year old labrador, Bonnie, was focused on the pictures in my head – and not the words I said. Sure, she knew the word COME, but when the picture/thought in my head was “She’s NOT going to come, she’s going to go over to the left and sniff those bushes”, then that is exactly what she did. She went to the left and sniffed the bushes! That is when I began to change my thoughts, and like magic, Bonnie started doing more of what I wanted her to do.

May’s Feature Dog – Chihuahua

May 3rd, 2010

Cream is a Chihuahua who loves fashion!Meet Cream, a two year old, four pound Chihuahua who loves to wear pink. Cream is an independent girl who likes to explore and make new friends. She enjoys long naps, short walks, and any clothes that make her ears look big.

Her favorite activities include hanging out with her friends, investigating the neighborhood, and running up to strangers just to say “Hello!” Cream enjoys rolling in anything smelly that she may encounter during her walks, and she doesn’t mind sharing her discoveries with friends.

The Chihuahua is the smallest breed in the world, and was named after the Mexican State of Chihuahua, where the breed was first discovered. There are many theories of the true origin of this little dog. Some believe they came over from Europe, originating in Malta, while others believe they came from China. Wherever their origins, the Chihuahua was considered holy to Pre-Columbian Indian nations, and is still popular today!
