California Veterinarians Ask Governor to Not Tax Veterinary Services

State Veterinary Association says taxing pet and food animal health care could result in increased pet abandonment, euthanasia and public health concerns

The current proposal to tax veterinary medical care is contained in the administration's "Governor's Budget: Special Session 2008-09" document. The proposal recommends that on February 1, 2009, the sales and use tax be broadened to include services, such as "appliance and furniture repair, vehicle repair, golf, and veterinarian services."

"The Plant Pot that Walks Into the Sunlight"

All images: The Play Coalition

The nifty new ‘plantbot’ is a plant pot with the ability to seek out sunlight as it moves and changes over the day; ensuring optimum sunlight for indoor plants.

Created by London design group The Play Coalition, details of the plant bot’s inner workings are scarce but we suspect it uses a robot that constantly takes images of its surroundings, then evaluates whether the space next to it would have more sunlight than its current position. We’re not entirely sure whether it also senses furniture and errant pets but if it does then it’s pretty impressive.

Martyr, the Energy Saving Fundamentalist

The Play Coalition’s better known creation is ‘Martyr’, a monkey-shaped energy-saving lightbulb. The ‘energy saving fundamentalist’, as its creators have labelled it, is a simple visual reminder that we should be pulling all appliances out of their sockets when not in use – an environmental statement for your home as well as a conversation piece.

Flickr has Porn

clipper's remarks: As a Flickr member I can opt out of seeing pictures by people who post nude or pornigraphic pictures...but I wonder, who else is looking at them? Should I worry that my granddaughter who is 13 years old may mosey on into one of these porn sites on what I thought was mostly used for sharing family photos, like new babies, picnics in the park and pictures you took during vacation....I also know that some pictures of children are being stolen and used in ads or blogs....I found one of my pictures of my 3 day old grandson on a wordpress.org blog where they talk about having cancer.

You can imagine my shock, when I saw his picture displayed (he was yawning and if you didn't know it, he looked more like he was crying in pain)....Evidently the author was trying to lure readers who want to see someone (in this case babies)
suffering and in pain...I immediately set the picture to private...when I last checked the image was gone, but my name over it is still there, with a link to my Flickr

From our "Strangest Men's Room Activity Not Involving Larry Craig" file comes this item from sender-inner Crystal O. of South Texas. Seems a category 2 hurricane hit the area, and the staff of the Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville herded all their animals into the safest structures they could find -- which, in the case of these flamingos, meant the men's room. That's the thrill of working in a zoo; you never know what urine for. (runs away, dodging tomatoes)

New guidelines for pets

Wed, 05 Nov 2008 17:02:05 GMT

Absurd" new guidelines advise pet owners against allowing dogs to beg at the table

Failing to notice your dog is getting fat, feeding it at the table and chocolate treats are all animal cruelty that could end up putting someone in jail under new government guidelines.

Chocolate, raisins or grapes are "poisonous" for pets, according to the code, while a dog should not be disturbed when eating as this can cause "food-related aggression".

The new codes of practice for owners of dogs, cats and horses, just released for consultation, are part of the Animal Welfare Act 2006 to prevent cruelty. The guidance says that breaching the three codes will not in itself be a crime, but it could prove to be the deciding factor in whether an individual is found guilty in court of a pet welfare offence – which carries a maximum jail sentence of six months or a fine of up to £20,000. Opposition policiticans criticised the "over the top" rules that "take people for fools".

These aren't just lovely portraits of people posing with their pets, but look a little closely and you'll see that the owners are wearing sweaters and vests that resemble the fur of their dogs. And they should because they were literally made from them.

Below is a series of photographs (an ongoing project) by photographer Erwan Fichou of people posing with their beautiful dogs, sporting canine couture... actual sweaters and vests made from the hair (fur?) of their own pet dogs.

Dog "Leo" Saves Kittens In Burning House

Mon, 27 Oct 2008 01:03:33 GMT

clipper's remarks: LEO the dog risked his life to protect four kittens trapped in a house fire in Melbourne last night.

The plucky pooch tested the courage and skills of firefighters as they were forced to dodge fallen power lines to reach him and his young feline companions at the burning weatherboard home in Pilgrim Street, Seddon just before 9pm.

Commander Ken Brown said family pet Leo, which remained in the house guarding the family's four-week-old kittens, owed his life to the firefighters.

"They got him out of the house and successfully resuscitated him,'' he said.

Following a few tense minutes, the animals responded to oxygen and therapy, and were now fully revived. Commander Brown said the family was relieved to be reunited with their family pets, including the mother of the kittens, which had initially been lost in the incident.

She [11-year-old girl suffered smoke inhalation] was at the home with her 37-year-old mother, a five-year-old sister and 18-year-old brother. . . .

A Jack Russell Terrier named Leo went above the call of duty when he risked his own life to rescue a litter of kittens trapped inside a burning building in Sydney. Ten News' James Wakelin reports.

pay taxes for pet's funeral

Prayers for pets are taxable business, Japan court says

TOKYO -- Saying a final goodbye to pets at a funeral is a special moment for owners, but the monks involved must still cough up money in taxes, Japan's top court ruled Friday.

The Supreme Court ruled against Buddhist monks who argued that Japan's growing trend of pet funerals was a religious activity that should be exempt from taxes, like funerals for humans.

The Jimyoin temple in central Aichi prefecture offers last rites for animals that resemble traditional Buddhist funerals, with bereaved pet owners paying pre-set fees.

In Japan, bereaved families generally offer donations to monks who perform last rites rather than explicitly paying for their services.

"This is a profit making operation that should be regarded as taxable income under the corporate tax law," he said.

"The list of charges spells out prices. By no means does it show the characteristics of religious donations," presiding judge Osamu Tsuno said in his ruling.

So You've Always Wanted A Parrot

Companion parrots and how to research to try to pick a parrot that will be a good fit for you and your lifestyle.

So you've always wanted a parrot? Every time you see one perched on someone's shoulder, or talking and singing on some TV variety show all you can think is "How cool would that be?". You picture yourself dressed as a pirate for Hallowe'en, a brightly colored bird on your shoulder squawking "Polly want a cracker?", or cruising the park or beach while the cute girls literally flock around you, amazed at your talking, trick performing feathered companion.

Before you rush to the pet store and put out somewhere in the vicinity of or over $1000 for the beautiful bird you've chosen, or jump to volunteer to take that parrot or cockatoo that a friend of a friend is giving away, take some time to think about your lifestyle, and do a little research on bird personalities to see what bird would most likely be a good fit

for you
