Even through a beach blanket

The reading selection at the vet has a
lot of info about worms.

For hookworms it says,

People most often get infected when they are lying on the ground at the beach and the larvae penetrate the skin. Yes, the larvae can penetrate through a beach blanket



For tapeworms of type Echinococcus multilocularos

Treat these tapeworm infections aggressively in pets, because if humans get infected, approximately half die.



Call me cruel, but if my pet had those I would definately consider wrapping it in a plastic bag and throwing it out.

At the vet with tortoise b

So the new tortoise has been straining to poop for three days. It's so sad to see it trying so hard. Today I tried to give it a mini tortoise enema with a pop bottle and was able to fish out a bunch of wood chips and a plastic plant material but I could tell he was totally impacted.

The poor guy must have had nothing to eat but the wood chips that lined the cage.

The vet just brought out an entire bowl if wood chips. She is going to xray and see what's left. Luckily he isn't bleeding at all.

Normal Urine

So my rapid response urinalysis test strips finally came in. I am fascinated with medical tests. Anyhow these fairly sophisticated test strips show I have no abnormalities in my urine although as the previous Ph strips indicated its slightly acidic.

The Lexington Coop on Elmwood is a Ripoff

I used to love the coop. I have shopped there since the 90s and have been a member owner since. I still shop there all the time because its convenient and because they have a lot of tasty things. It was always kind of expensive and I was ok with it.

Somehow they really crossed a line for me recently. I cannot believe the prices anymore. I mean it was always expensive but now its absolufricking ridiculously expensive.

Vegetables should not be overpriced at harvest. If anything they should be local and cheaper. I could not believe this mini cauliflower cost $4.59. And berries? At the height of Berry season they are almost $5.00 a pint!

I overheard someone say they hope the coop keeps getting more expensive and expands because it will finally attract the attention of a Whole Foods and bring them to Buffalo. I am starting to agree.

Mike's old room

Not sure how this is fair but (e:Mike) moves out from the parents' house and I end up having to paint his old room.

My dad helped out a bunch although we had differing views on what constitutes complete. Strangely, I was the more picky one which makes me question if I am more of a pain in the butt then my father.

My mom chose bright yellow to paint over the blue. It was hard to make the blue not shine through. I know we could have primed but the paint didn't call for that.

Creepy Cutey

I found this weird little animal on the net. Not sure what it is and there was no additional info with the pic. It looks like a baby bat.

At Niagara Gorge

I had a nice day hiking the gorge with (e:Mike) and (e:libertad). They are perfect for each other. I found some really delicious wild grapes. Hiking the gorge is way easier in the fall than in the spring when I am much more out of shape.

The bird sat in the tree with me while I collected them. He kept calling to me every 10 seconds when I went a few feet away. Unless I responsed he would freak out.

Bird Bath

The bird freaked out when I left the computer where he was perched to take a shower so I decided I would take it with me.

At first he perched on the curtain rod. I kept splashing him and he freaked out until he jumped on my shoulder and got blasted with the shower. At first he seemed scared and ran down my arms but then it was right back up under the water where he seemed to really enjoy splashing and cleaning his feathers.

When it was time for me to soap up I put him on the soap rack where he preened his feathers. Its amazing how much smaller he looked when wet.

Afterwards, I blow dried him while he sat on my shoulder. It was so cute.
