I'm glad you are finding something that seems to be working for you and Gracie. Mandy cooks homemade for her girls - maybe the two of you can swap "fur kid" recipes.

I think it's a superb idea to cook homemade for the furkids. I have to admit, I don't, wish i did, and have no excuse why i don't...but i think it's good.

I'm really happy that the 'kids' are getting better. It does sound like fixing their food is easier. I had thought about homecooking for mine, but LOL I hate cooking! Plus, you have to make sure you get the right amounts of everything. I just don't feel like thinking that hard.

I never would either Sheryl, but had no choice and it's a lot easier than I thought.
I don't cook at all. Right now, I'm microwaving stuff I bought ready made and packed up for Weight Watchers meals.

For me, that's heavy duty cooking!

I'm also wondering what else they get in dog food, like vitamin and mineral and other supplements that I'm not giving them. I really don't want to make a career out of this domesticity thing, you know!

Judy, cooking for the fur kids is about the only proper cooking i do around here, i dont like to stand and stir pots, i'm not made to be a proper housewife/keeper, but one thing i make sure of, is that they get the proper meals they need, us people can help ourselves, dont get me wrong, my family gets a cooked meal every night, but i promise, i do not spend more then 30min. in the kitchen. I'll send you recipes i use. They easy, i make a batch once a week, and freeze the potions. I spoke to the vet about this, and gave her the recipe, she said it's the best they could have.

Thanks Mandy! I'd love that.

Gracie Leigh is finally making regulation poops since yesterday!

(I'd attach a picture, but I somehow don't think y'all want to see it as much as I did!)

That's one way to "capture the moment". Gives Kodak an entire new meaning.

Now I'm going to have to post it! A Kodak poop.

I needed that good laugh, Sheryl. I just finished reading 14 or 15 rough drafts of my college students' research papers. They e-mailed them to me. My brain is fried, but I only have 3 more hard copies to read and I am done!

Once I read the first draft, the revised and final drafts are a breeze.

I thought you were retired Judy? So you are still teaching? My brain would be fried too. What are the student's papers about?
