My wife & I got a real joy from reading (the whole thing mind you) But your Chet reminded us of our own buddy boy, who pouts when we pack for a trip.

I used to have a cat that would empty ab box of tampons, carry them around and hide them in the house-a goofy variation on an Easter egg hunt!Lynnenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19608656.post-1142903737291452082006-03-20T20:15:00.000-05:002006-03-20T20:15:00.000-05:00Dear KatDoc,<BR/><BR/> Thank you so much. I appreciate your letting us all know this. I am thankful to say that Chet doesn't eat things he's tearing up (but that's not to say he couldn't). He assures me this was a one-time revenge chew. I cleaned the mess up right away. He's been eating and eliminating well, but of course I will keep a close eye on him just in case.Warning taken!<BR/>On related fronts, Chet adores plain yogurt, gets a dollop every day, and his flatulence is no longer an issue, hooray.Julie Zickefoosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06654698829603424649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19608656.post-1142902288784449262006-03-20T19:51:00.000-05:002006-03-20T19:51:00.000-05:00OK, so the vet has to step in with words of warning again. (I know, I know - blogging humor suffers when reality steps in.) Forgive me.<BR/><BR/>Tampons are SERIOUS no-no's for dogs. While they are normally more attractive to the canine nose in their, how shall I say, less than pristine state, new ones can be just as deadly. Really, any of the modern ultra-mega-super absorbant products like diapers, etc, are very, very bad if eaten. They absorb gastric fluids, swell to multiple times larger than their orginal state, and create a GI blockage that requires major surgery in the least case scenario and can kill in the worst.<BR/><BR/>So yes, the photos are pretty funny (especially because they are not of MY dogs being bad) but please, everybody beware of this potential tragedy.<BR/><BR/>This has been a public service announcement. We now return your to your regular blog, already in progress.KatDocnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19608656.post-1142897868294984132006-03-20T18:37:00.000-05:002006-03-20T18:37:00.000-05:00Wow...that's really funny. I must admit that I am a Chet Baker fan mostly because he reminds me so much of my quadrapedal friend, Blue. Blue is not a BT (he's a wolfhound), but he does have a love for tampons...next time I'll have to grab a photo.Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03336289233465969061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19608656.post-1142896693147485672006-03-20T18:18:00.000-05:002006-03-20T18:18:00.000-05:00I do what I can. <BR/><BR/>Have been worrying you home.You still in NE, snowed in??Julie Zickefoosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06654698829603424649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19608656.post-1142895055839569712006-03-20T17:50:00.000-05:002006-03-20T17:50:00.000-05:00Thank you for finally breaking down the barrier to tampons in birding blogs.birdchickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05751235120097847798noreply@blogger.com
