Weekend Warriors: Mr. Sambolini’s Kitty Litter Castle

July 31st, 2009 · No Comments

Welcome to “Weekend Warriors.” Every Friday, we run a shining example of a reader’s recent makings—to say TGIF and send you off right into your own weekend’s projects .

Pill Pockets

July 31st, 2009 · No Comments

If you’ve ever tried to give a pill to a cat, you know it’s not only not fun, it can be downright dangerous. Dogs will eat anything. Cats, not so much. I had a cat that was on medication for years, and every day it was the same struggle to get a pill down her throat.

Do Not Go Gentle…

July 30th, 2009 · No Comments

You know, something cool like that, but that wouldn’t be the truth. Sadly, the truth is much less thrilling than any of that. The truth is that I turned 40 this year. Yep, the big 4 0.
