'Nighters to all!  Sleep well!   

[mytime]

OMG - Crystol was so happy to see her boy - she ate about half her food for him.  I put everything on the list you guys mentioned and I will call vet in am and ask to be 100% sure before I give her the chicken -- in case as MT said, it is too much protein.  But since he didn't say anything - my guess is it would be fine.   
I am hoping when he gets back she will eat some more.  She is sad he left!   What am I chopped liver?????????    LOL

Yep!!

They all screamed and ran inside!!

Freak show owner gets cash, but no 5-legged puppy

By KAREN HAWKINS


CHICAGO (AP) -- Thanks to a Chicago TV judge, a Coney Island freak show operator is up $4,000 but down a five-legged puppy.

Judge Jeanine Pirro ruled during a taping of her show Wednesday that freak show owner John Strong is entitled to the cash after the dog's owner backed out of a contract to sell the Chihuahua-terrier mix to him.

Calvin Owensby agreed to sell the five-legged puppy formerly known as Precious to Strong on June 29. Strong sent Owensby $1,000, with a promise to deliver $2,000 more when Precious got to New York.

But Owensby, an unemployed electrician from Gastonia, N.C., balked days later after researching Strong online.

"I didn't know it was a freak show," a tearful Owensby told Pirro. "He said it was an amazing animal show."

Hoping things go well for little Crystol today, ANJ.

About a month ago, son and I found an Eastern Box Turtle on a street behind his house in east Texas.  It's about the size of the palm of my hand.  I believe he was an escaped pet and we put signs and such up and no one claimed him.   He had a very deep scrape on top of his shell.  He lives at my house now, and his name is "Silent Bob".  Normally if I found a turtle/tortoise out somewhere, I would just move it on across the road out of harms way.  But this one was found on a street with houses, two streets over from a very busy commercial street.  And the street he was on had really high curbs.  He was sitting on someone's front lawn.    I think he was an escapee.  "Silent Bob" is really friendly and follows us around like a puppy. 

My little blue parakeet "Cindy Lou Who" died on Sunday.  She was companion to our cockatiel "Bird".  It's sad when we lose our pets. 

I don't have any pet snakes.  Not too fond of snakes.  Most other creatures, but will take a pass on snakes...

I'm sorry, MBee!

 

[MuffyBee]

Thank you Bearly.  It's quiet around here without Cindy Lou.  I'm contemplating finding Bird another companion, so he won't be lonely.   

[Bearlyhere]

Thanks CBB, but that would mean I would have to get in my car or a car!
I was planning on going to a nearby church at lunch, maybe I'll just pray here.

And I'm not even that afraid of snakes just the thought of one under your car seat while driving. Wow!

Sunny how did you make it in TX.

On the brighter side I rescued a turtle from a parking lot road this AM.

PS MyTime, nice skating the other night last week.

NM - we sold our dream home in TX at a loss because of snakes. After only living there 4 months.
On the brighter side...bless you for saving the turtle!!

Sunny-N-Tx - glad to see you all cool again. 
So how come you had to sell it due to snakes?  Did they get inside and couldn't be exterminated or was it too dangerous to go outside?

there was a huge pasture behind us and the guy that owned the land had a very large compost pile near our fence.....I was so afraid of the snakes, it got to where I wouldn't go out in the back yard or let the dogs in the back. I no longer felt safe even walking to our pool.  The day I poured charcoal starter on one of the ground level decks and lit it , was the day my husband knew we couldn't stay there any long.  BTW...there were 5 snakes under that deck!

Thank you Bearly.  It's quiet around here without Cindy Lou.  I'm contemplating finding Bird another companion, so he won't be lonely.   

A good quiet or a lonely quiet?

[MuffyBee]

Is Sunny gone now?  Here's a SNAKE story:

Parishioner mistakes coral snake for rosary
http://www.khou.com/topstories/stories/khou090812_jj_snakes-in-rosary.d2556644.html
 SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Father James Galvin has served at Mission San Juan de Capistrano for 11 years. In that time he's seen plenty of coral snakes in his rectory and even inside the church.

On Sunday, a woman in line to take communion spotted what she thought was a rosary; instead it was a colorful coral snake. The woman threw the snake and caused quite a scare.

Despite the scare, no one was hurt.

As for the snake in the church, a greeter took care of it and threw it outside. The coral snake was about a foot long.

Father Galvin said keeps at least five cats around, including two in the house, to alert him when a snake sneaks in.
