| Pets and Emergencies
|
|
Many of us live in areas where there are earthquakes, floods and tornados. I live in an earthquake/flood/lahar zone. Sometimes, we may be forced to evacuate to a safer place. If you have a cat like I do, and need to grab them quickly to take them to a safe place or shelter, they usually have a mind of their own.

| Garden Plants That Can Be Toxic to Pets
|
|
By Ellen Brown
|
 At times it seems as though our pets like gardening just about as much as we do. They love to stay close to us when we are out working outside. And sometimes all that beautiful black dirt is just too irresistible to pass up digging up and rolling around in.

| Borax and Pets

|
Borax has a skull and crossbones on it for a reason. It is very dangerous to animals. Please remember that our pets are so much closer to the ground than we are and that they have to lick themselves to get clean.
