Doggies and hooman food revisited

Does Doobie look like a wolf? Srsly.

---

Despite what the premium pet food brands tell you, your dog is not a wolf and he doesn't need to eat like a wolf. A dog can live quite well on human food, with a few exceptions, including chocolate and onions. Please read about them on the Humane Society site.
Foods potentially poisonous to pets : The Humane Society of the United States

It goes without saying that you should never, EVER give hooman drugs to a pet unless your vet gives you the ok. Something as harmless as aspirin can be a killer!

There are a number of good books on making nommy homemade foods for dogs (and cats). Dr. Pitcairn's New Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats explains the dietary needs of dogs and cats, and gives recipes for healthful meals you can make in batches. The book even has recipes for supplements you can spoon onto commercial dog or cat foods to replace nutrients lost in the canning process.

Farewell @BunnyJeanCook

Farewell to Bunny Jean Cook

Oh oh oh we lost a dear furend today!  Bunny Jean Cook did cross RB.

I loved dat pretteh bunneh. She always had the BEST costumes and she a GREAT DJ.

@PepiSmartDog greeted her at Rainbow Bridge and is showing her around. We hope dat when she gets settled OTRB she will stop down to DJ at #nipclub.

Best wishes to her mom and her cats.

Can Cats See Colors?

To make it simple, cats and dogs can see some colors, but not all. Cats and dogs have deuteranopia, commonly called red-green color-blindness.

The inset picture in the image above shows what a cat might see when looking at the larger picture.  To sum it up, cats see blue and yellow fine,  but other colors are problematic.

The image was created in Gimp using the colorblind filter and a screen capture. To use the filter, click View → Display Filters… and select what type of colorblindness you want to check.
