Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day to all!

Today, on the petsjubilee etsy team page the team will be doing a special activity called Hearts For Valentine's Day. This activity involves team members going through other team member's shops and finding new items that we like. We heart those items and then post a link to the item in this forum thread here. At the end of the day, I will count up how many hearts we got for the whole team (or at least the thread posted ones). Then, I will let you all know how many we got for the day in the comments area below. Feel free to take a guess on the end number of hearts for the team we will get today in the comments are below, too.

Sasha and I found this video on You Tube that is so fitting for today.

Vomiting- Best Not To Read While Eating

It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there. But it’s also a dog-eat-rancid-garbage world. And cat-eat-dead-mouse world. Your pet came into this world with a vomiting reflex to match his adventurous appetite. Dogs do it at the drop of a hat, and cats are pretty good at it too. While dogs usually vomit because of dumpster diving, eating too much or eating too fast can also upset their tummies. To help your pet hold down his lunch, try these tips:

-Give him fast relief: When your pet is vomiting, his stomach needs a time out. Don’t let him have any food for 24 hours. A short fast may be all it takes to get his stomach back to normal. If he’s still sick in 24 hours call your vet.

-Fill the water bowl: Once the worst of the vomiting is over, encourage your pet drink water during his fast. The last thing you want is dehydration.

-Let him lick ice: If water makes him queasy, give him ice cubes instead. He’ll lick the water off more slowly and it usually stays down better than when he drinks. To make sure the water stays down, don’t give him more than one cube every 15 minutes.

-Keep a lid on it: To prevent your pet from drinking too much, keep the toilet lid down.

-Make the menu bland: Start with a bland diet to gently work his system back into digesting. Vets recommend mixing two parts cooked white rice with one part cottage cheese or boiled skinless chicken.

-Bring back his favorite food -- slowly: After two days on the bland diet, you can start re-introducing his usual fare.

And one question answered -- No one knows why all dogs and cats occasionally eat grass and then vomit as a result. Some vets think they do it to purge their systems of unpleasant things. Others suspect grass-eating may be more of a be a culinary thing. As long as the grass isn’t treated with chemicals and it isn’t eaten in excessive quantities, grass-eating probably isn’t anything you need to prevent your pet from doing.

*These tips are home remedies only and should not ever be used as a substitute for any treatment that may have been prescribed by your veterinarian. If your pet has a medical problem, we urge you to seek competent medical care.

1. Some of us were bred for sport, but one of my kind was bred specifically to accompany miners underground to detect poisonous gasses in the shaft.

2. Those bred in captivity tend to make better pets and are considered preferable to those caught in the wild.

  

3. I came to my height of popularity during the Victorian Age in England around 1875 when Queen Victoria began giving us as gifts to visiting heads of state.

4.  I was believed to be an agent of the devil, and to possess magical powers. Pope Gregory IX declared me to be a "Diabolical creature”.

5. One of my favorite activities is to climb on objects so I can be in the sun.

6. I will quickly find that my most comfortable spot to sleep in is also YOUR most comfortable spot to be in, whether it's a bed, large bean bag chair, or couch. 

7. I am welcomed anywhere you live, be it a rented house, flat, or apartment.

8. In the wild, I am a nuisance to farmers. I have been known to hide in excess of 60 pounds of grain to feed myself through the winter.

9. Other than people, I am the most widely distributed mammal. 

10. I am easy to feed and very hardy with few health problems.
