The Cat and the Carpet

Life is no fun until you have a cat take a nice healthy poop on your hallway carpet, but in all honesty, that's no fun either, especially when it happens quite often. In fact, it's downright irritating. And unfortunately my husband's cat has been doing just that for a while now.

Now before you tell me you know exactly what the problem is, or offer the usual, have you tried this... I'm pretty darn sure it's not what you think. He's an old cat who's dead set in his old ways and has been use to using hallway carpets as his litter box for many years, and no, not my doing!

Now everyone who knows cats, owned them, etc. have tried offering advice on how to solve the problem, but the problem is, I've tried it all and some offered solutions are not possible, or simply causes a whole new list of problems that I'm not willing to begin.

No, I'm just ranting and raving for the moment until the old boy leaves this world. However, I am curious, do you have any animals that possess odd behaviors? I've witnessed my husband's cat climb on our kitchen table and do his business right after I'd pissed him off by kicking him out of the bedroom where he'd been napping on a clean pile of clothes on the bed. Damn cat!

DogCents and Helping a Needy Cause

If you haven't been by Lily Ruth's Dogcents Blog, you should.

Now at first glance the page looks a little disorganized, but don't let that fool you. In the heart of this blog Lily Ruth shares with us her love for dogs and her great cause. A good example of her reason for DogCents is her post titled, "Why DO I Bother?" In it she talks about why she posts dog news, photos and jokes.

There are many really good articles that she shares with us about dogs. Some are disturbing as far as owners who abuse dogs and some are heartbreaking like the article about Ellie Lawrenson and her grandmother's responsibility in her death.

Dogcents isn't just about the articles, jokes and photos, however. As I said, there is a purpose... a cause behind this unique blog. If you donate $2.00 to help feed, shelter and care for medicinal needs for dogs Dogcents will review your blog and offer to post a permanent link to your site.

If you are as passionate about dogs as Lily Ruth is, then you'll definitely want to drop by Dogcents. It just makes Dog Gone Good Sense.
