Does anyone have any experience with this beautiful breed of cat? The more I see and hear of them, the more intrigued I become of possibly having one. We have a Bengal already and she looks like a smaller version of these Savannah cats. I'm curious as to how healthy they are as a breed; what, if...

We moved to our new home six years ago. Our Eclectus parrot was kept in the corner of our living room in the prior house. He was used to being in the center of the action and watching/listening to the TV. Since living here, he and the Quaker parrot are kept in a back bedroom where the computer...

Years ago I bought some soap chips that were made expressly for teeth cleansing. The maker stated that soap was far kinder to teeth than toothpaste. Flouride has been such a hot topic of debate, whether it is harmful in toothpaste or not - many studies have shown that it IS harmful. The tooth...

I bought the Mango Mandarin shampoo at Bath & Body Works recently. Today was the first time I used it. I was in a real funk right before I took a shower. I'd been reading a book that made me sad and got me thinking about depressing things. It felt like I was just sliding into a downward spiral...

I used to have the finest, smoothest, straightest hair. It's changed within the last 2-3 years and I'm so upset about it! I've been complaining to my stylist over and over and over, but she doesn't ever give me any solutions or reasons why. Recently, the manager told me it's because I'm getting...

I know there are scents that make a huge difference in how we feel. Avon had a great scent, Strawberry White Chocolate, I think it only came out just last year. I bought the shower gel and body lotion, and have just started using them this month. They make me feel HAPPY, uplifted and soooo GOOD...

My Tonkinese cat always has very goopy eyes. He's had the problem ever since he was brought home as a kitten from the breeder. When we were at the breeder's house, all the kittens looked fine, no eye problems (besides some having the typical Siamese crossed eyes). It's an every day occurence for...

I've always had problems with constipation, from as far back as I can remember. Several years ago, my mom was talking about how she found out that magnesium is of great benefit to people who suffer from constipation. I never knew dad had this problem, but she said he had been greatly helped by...

I have trouble sleeping sometimes, well, oftentimes, really. I've taken Ibuprofin PM and Excedrin PM before, but I don't like how I'm so groggy the next day. Recently, my husband gave me some Melatonin pills that did help. After a couple days, he asked if I wanted the bottle in my kitchen...

Who caught the miniseries of the Hatfields and McCoys on the History Channel? We recorded the 3-part miniseries and just watched the last segment last night. It was so good, my husband and I both loved it. It made me sad though to see what all the hatred between the two families brought about...

When we bought our Eclectus parrot several years ago, we extensively read up on how to care for this special bird. One author highly recommended feeding egg shells to pet parrots for the calcium they need. So one morning we gave our parrot a mixture of eggs and egg shells. Shortly after he ate...

We had two domestic tabby cats before we bought our beautiful Bengal kitten. Everyone got along great, after a short period of time. The two older cats died the same year and month, leaving the Bengal when she was five years old. We then bought a Tonkinese kitten. It was WAR from the first...

I know there are guidelines on how long we are to keep makeup before it should be tossed out and replaced. I just wonder how many of us actually stick to those guidelines. I for one keep using makeup until it's used up or turns "yucky." Like my lipsticks; I have many lipsticks that are over a...

Am I just being ridiculous or are there other adults who notice food portion discrepancies and get jealous just like when they were children? My husband and I were out with a large group of people for a birthday celebration recently at a local restaurant. Many of us ordered the macaroni and...
