I feel your pain. We are in a blizzard here, too, in Nebraska. My husband worked an 18 hour shift so he could come home before the worst of the weather struck. Besides a few hours power outage, we're doing okay and all of the animals are hayed up and bedded down. I'm going out in a minute to...

Thank you folks for your suggestions. I'm going to try new litter and see if I can't find some mothballs as well. I have considered making the offenders into barncats, but I hate to start that at the beginning of winter. In fact, if I had a MUCH larger house, I might be tempted to bring in all...

Help! My six cats are in good health. They range from six months to seven years old and are indoor/outdoor cats. Ever since we had a blizzard last Tuesday, my cats have been spending a lot more time indoors. Three of my cats have decided that the carpet makes a great potty- and convenient, too...

I just wanted to say "hi" and welcome from Nebraska. I think your boy is handsome.

I loved the story and the pictures!

Okay, I'm going to risk sounding stupid but I'm confused: why did the ex-stallion have to be blood-tested to make sure he was no longer a stud? I have always understood that when a stallion is gelded his "parts" are removed making it quite obvious that he is now a gelding. Is there such thing as...

Which one's the poodle? Cute pic!

I know I've had several paranormal experiences, but one leaps to mind right now: When I was a teenager my folks put our old retriever mix, Trapper, to sleep while my brother and I were at school. Yes, he couldn't walk anymore or see, but I didn't get to tell him good-bye. What made it worse is I...

I honestly thought you wrote it that way on purpose. Sure, why not, I thought...and it was a bit funny.

I think my brother can actually do that. I called him and left a messege. I'll PM you when I find out if he does.

Glad to have you on the forum. Welcome (back) from Nebraska- right in the middle of the continental US. You have quite a lovely farm- so many great pictures on your website.

Welcome from Nebraska! All new members are required to post lots of pics!

Just wanted to add my thanks to Cheyenne. My husband loves them. I said, "Guess where I got the recipe? The Miniature Horse Forum! Ha!" He always shakes his head when I'm on here.

I am so sorry that your Zip is going blind and I don't know of anything to help treat it. Do you have any other dogs that you can put a bell on their collar? Seriously. I have seen several dogs with companion "seeing eye" dog that get around very well as long as they hear that tinkling bell...

Thanks for the comments. Goat repellent! Boy, I'd pay some $$ so I could spray that on my garden; they always try to get in there.

I don't remember if I had posted this before, but this is from earlier this year and one of my pygmy kids was using Bullet, my large mini, as a trampoline while he was snoozing. Hopefully this video will work for you guys. Thanks for looking, enjoy.

It ALWAYS freaks me out...for a moment. My three guys are fat, happy, lazy bums that enjoy a snooze in the sun when they can. I've even watched as one of my goat kids hopped up and down on one(he wasn't flat out though) and he barely noticed. For fun I'll try to post the video of that on the...

A few years back, my husband told me I could get a mini IF he got to pick the name. Well, I decided, why not? What's in a name...? So I got Trigger and no, he isn't palomino, but he's smart and loyal and a clown sometimes. Next mini was a rescue named Tyler. New life=new name. Tyler became...

For a good laugh, I look at the Craiglist horse posts with horrible spelling. For example: "For sale: Pure bread phillie, $400obo" What would that be? An expensive sandwich with no meat? Not the exact ad, but I've seen many like that. I've seen some folks trying to sell a "gilding" or a...

I have one too, and I have nearly the same situation as you. My surgeon recommended an U/S assisted vacuum removal of the lump which is an outpatient procedure, local anesthetic, minimally invasive. From what he told me you just have to ice your breast for a day or too, take Tylenol as needed...
