Still unpacking.

Fishy the betta fish seemed to have a white spot on his head a few days a go and some sort of growth in the middle of his dorsal fin.  Put extra aquarium salt in and that seemd to take care of the white spot.  Bought some all purpose medicine for fin  rot, fungus, etc at the pet store, but haven't used it yet, as i was hoping the

I hope Fishy is back to his normal self soon.
I never noticed any changes in Phil before he passed, so I just assumed it was old age that took him away from me. He never suffered any visible health problems.

Fleas, ick. Aldy has never experienced fleas. I checked her all over after her tumble out the window, but she's clean. She'll be happy to be in AK again. She can roam free in my mother's backyard without having to worry about anything. (We don't have heart worms, ticks, or fleas up there.)

Wow, it seems that soccer is the popular sport among littlies. My bros each took soccer by the time they were old enough to kick a ball without falling over. :P I hope he has fun.

any squitos up in AK? I'm Wondering about the west nile virus... I haven't chcked them much cause theyre *SHOULDN'T* have come in contact with any fleas.. we'er on the thrid floor, there's not grass all over.. i carried them up, but who knows if there were animals in here before us since they didn't deep clean it like they should have

Oh, I remember clearly when my parents forced me to play Basketball at the Y. I hated them for it. =P

I hope he doesn't hurt himself leaping from table to recliner like that. My sis and I were once jumping back and forth between our beds (we shared a room at the time) and I fell on one jump and severed an artery in my face. One of my many deadly tricks.

Oh yes. They have 'squitoes up in AK. They're hugs and there are SO MANY of them. Blech! We have to use DEET when we go hiking or biking or anything where we'll be outdoors for more than a few minutes in the summer months.

well, if he donest wanna go he dont have to.. its only 10 bucks for 7 weeks! it's not goign to hurt my feelings!

Naw he's fine.. was watching him the whole time chairs practically one big cushion no hard spots or anything else he could have whacked on if he missed the jump. Just maybe get a 'rug' burn from the chair. Table's probably not even a foot of the floor either. I was just amazed he could leap that far. I would be hesitant to do so in a similar adult sized situation.

oh boy.. tons of squitos they seem to like to eat me.. i'll remember to bring deadly sprays if i ever go visit!
