Well it’s alright by me.

Pets.  Gotta love ‘em.  And what a great way to teach responsibility to your children.

Pets.  When you get home, who ALWAYS greets you with happy smiles, wagging tails, and slobbering kisses all over?

There can never be a bad day when you have a pet around.  And the more the merrier.

Dogs: Huggable, lovable, affectionate, loyal, obedient, and protective.

Cats: Huggable, lovable, affectionate, loyal, independent.

Fish: Calming, peaceful, beautiful, relaxing, serene, the wonder down under the sea.

Hamsters: Huggable, cuddly, affectionate, and cute

Snakes: Yeah right!  No way should one EVER let a snake in to your life or in to your house.  Slimy, Sinewy, Sneaky.  They hide behind rocks and then pounce on their prey. They’d probably eat your cat if you weren’t careful.  Oh, they eat mice and rats.  Nice.

Pigs: Handy, cute, adorable, intelligent, and you’re built-in garbage disposal.  Might have to get one of those one day.

In a nutshell (no pun intended, Squirrel fans), a house is a home when you open your hearts to all living things and expose your family to life lessons of love, caring, nurturing, responsibility, trust, loyalty, and respect.

• Cold Weather Leads to... Colds.  I don't care what people say that you can't get a cold from a chill.  And that it's a virus and the only way to get it is to come in contact with someone with a cold.  I say the cold (as in weather not the illness) reduces ones......
• Cats and Mice What came first? Can we have one without the other?  How do these symbiotic relationships develop?  Are we (others) drawn to those that have that which we desire?  What kind of force of nature is this? How do we bottle it?  Can we bottle it?  Do we want to bottle......
• Spring Cleaning Yesterday, feeling guilty watching Tracy, Tom, and Matthew cleaning the backyard (raking, picking up rocks, planting, mulching) when I got home from picking up Chris after his sleep over at his friends house, I pitched in. I need more exercise. I'm aching all over. To make matters worse, I tried......
• The Rolling Stones The price of everything is going up and up and up.  Who knew that someone would be interested in rock?  Well, it is Live Rock (don't ask if you don't know)... My tank got a major reduction today.  Virtually all the Live Rock (again, no questions) was taken today... three......
• Getting Caught Up... Downloaded, edited, cropped, arranged, uploaded, a whole bunch of pictures to the Squirrel Forum today.  Included in this massive update were pictures of: The hamster, Max The cats, Jerry, Cookie, and Velcro The dogs, Beethoven and Webster The car (BEFORE pics --- For after pics, just look at the original......

• When the Pigs Fly [/caption] If you are a long-suffering wife married to a gruff household tyrant making up for certain physical deficiencies by demanding unfailing obeisance, chucking beer cans at a family cat, cheating right on his executive desk, or lubing up his muscle truck, I guarantee you have, at least, once......
• Link roundup: Rat snake edition My wife is the snake-killer in our family. At one point we had over a dozen baby copperheads nesting under the ramp in our shed. My wife, the quick thinker, torched about two-thirds of them, and we got rid of the rest of them one by one. Well, she recently......
• Cat Parasites-Don't Read This While Eating There are a number of different cat parasites, but the ones that probably are the most seen by cat owners are: roundworms and tapeworms. These gross blood sucker just drag down the health of your cat. If you ever wanted to know if you could treat cat parasites naturally,......
• Buy a pet guinea pig by Walter Francios Have you ever considered a guinea pig as a pet? Guinea pigs are often classified as pocket pets, small pets which do well and live the majority of their lives in cages or pens. You may be surprised to know that these rodents make excellent companions. If......
• Machu Picchu - Cusco, Peru [/caption] One of the most popular archeological sites of the world, and therefore, the most visited attraction in Peru. The Citadel of Machu Picchu (in Quechua [an Andean language] = Old Mountain) is known throughout the world for its amazing ruins and its unusual location on a high mountain overlooking......
