yup, gotta love those id-10-t probs! my favourite was an un-named medical professional at a hospital i worked at. her 'doze box was acting flaky. after all else failed, we were trying a memory swap. when i went to pull the cover off her 'puter, i had to move a memo holder from the side of it. it appeared to be stuck, i thought it was adhesive, turned out to be a 4"x6" magnet. i told her she would be better off if she stuck it to her file cabiniet instead of her pc. problems vanished.

actually i'm lucky, our cats are strictly indoor cats so we got them declawed. just the front paws though, you'd be surprised how quick they can twist those back paws into position! i find it safer just to leave the evil things alone, or throw them far enough that they can't scratch you. my dog, on the other hand, is the only living thing in the house that always meets me at the door when i come home and is always happy to see me. dogs rule!

I have cats and dogs (and ferrets and a chinchilla). sooner or later they will need medication, here's a handy guide.

Carefully sweep shattered figurines and vases from hearth and set to one side for gluing later. 8) Wrap cat in large towel and get spouse to lie on cat with head just visible from below armpit. Put pill in end of drinking straw, force mouth open with pencil and blow down drinking straw. 9) Check label to make sure pill not harmful to humans, drink 1 beer to take taste away.
