I work as a caregiver in the home of an elderly woman who is about 85. There are family dynamics that I cannot begin to understand. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I had assumed they wouldn't need me, that she would be spending the day with her family. I was wrong. She has at least five children...

Unknowingly my puppy dragged an apple into my room, and under the bed. I have been sleeping on the couch the past week due to being ill. I did not notice the fruit flies. I had my brother feeding my chins to cut out the chance of me making them ill. I killed a bunch of flies today with soapy...

My girls are brats. Their cage is about two feet from the end of my bed (only place it will fit). Every morning and every night before bed I find two or three droppings on my bed. It's never when I'm awake in my room though, only when Im sleeping or not in there. I have a feeling they are...

I've checked out a couple of black Friday ads, but probably won't be doing much shopping. I think I'll go to Persmart for cheap dog treats (Beggin Strips), and hamster food. The food my hamster gets is like $10 a bag, and it's 50% off black Friday. After working one black friday at Walmart a...

I work as an in-home caregiver with an elderly lady. She is very sweet. I went to work this morning and was horrified. Someone had spray painted on her car, her house, her barn, her windows and deck. I called the office, but they had already been informed. My client is very elderly. I don't...

In August I began too see my supposed best friend in a negative light. I needed her to be there for me and she wasn't. It's a long story. This past month she was in the hospital and could have died. I texted her a few times and asked if she needed anything. I got a text that said "okay". I tried...

I'm going to begin by saying my brother is not a nice person. He is arrogant and full of himself. He made my own childhood miserable from my teenage years into my twenties. He called me a fat witch with a B daily for years. I don't even like my brother as a person. but he is family so I do love...

Thought it was cute :) I don't have a hedgehog, but thought you guys might enjoy.

My kitty Sasha pictured above hit the 14 year old mark this month. She was my first kitty at the age of 15. She recently had a physical just to make sure she was still doing okay for her age. She weighs in at only 8 1/2 pounds, but has maintained a steady weight. She also does not groom herself...

Marika (white female), and Jett (ebony male) are below. I think I have yo much free time :p Found an iPhone app with wigs.

I had a dream the other night my baby girl Marika got into my boy's cage and got pregnant. I woke up in a panic and checked the cage to make sure! I always lock the cages, but the dream seemed real :p I'm not sure the actual scenario counts as a nightmare, but to me it was!

My doctor recently told me he thinks I have sciatica. I have pain radiating from my right buttock down my right leg. It hurts to sit for long periods of time, which stinks during my three hour lectures :p I saw a physical therapist about five weeks ago who thought it was a pulled glut. My...

I know that whisker chewing is a dominance behavior. My girl Marika has been chewing her mother's whiskers off since she was six weeks old. While Marika has nice long whiskers: She has chewed her mom's down to nothing: Is there a way to discourage Marika from doing this? I'm not sure it...

I have been unemployed for a year, and have finally found a job. I have orientation later this week! I will be working as a home care aide for the elderly. It's only $8.50 an hour, but it's a job! I'm really excited :D

I used hot glue to attach the glass pieces, but I wasnt sure now to go about sealing them. Or if I had to? My mom said something about putting them on etsy, but I'm hesitant. I would even know how to price them :p

I heard grunting from my girl's cage last night. I went to investigate and Marika would not let her mother (Mira) near the food dish. She was grunting at her. Mira tried to approach again and Marika stood up. The girls got into what I would call a boxing match. I'm not sure what instigated it...

I've recently have been storing some of my Lighter chinchilla supplies on too of the cage. Not very much, but their toys, treats and things. Some are stored in plastic, but I have a half inch thick layer of fleece underneath where the supplies sit so the chins can't get to them. Is storing...

I have always said I don't believe in ghost, or the super natural. I would have to see it to believe it. My dog of 13 years (Sakura) passed away at the end of August due to cancer. About two weeks ago when I arrived home from an outing, all of my dogs started barking. I swear I heard my...

My girls Mira, and her daughter, Marika, often seem to be attached at the hip. They do everything to together. They sleep together, eat together, and beg together: It seems as though Marika copies her mother. She used to imitate her brother's when she was younger. Marika has never known...

With winter coming I was debating switching my chins to carefresh for a few months. I normally take fleece outside to spray it off with a hose before washing it. It is becoming to cold to take it outside and spray it off anymore. I have never used carefresh with my chins, it has always been...
