Ha... PETA people have so much potential to do so much good... but they waste it on stuff like this. I don't like idea of animal testing, however it is a necessary part of sceince (now i don't know if mars testing is qualified as a scientific necessity), but if they boycott this, I hope all those PE...

She's almost 2 and has a new love affair with the leather couches.. which are expensive to fix, I'm...

So if animals don't have rights or shouldn't have rights as you are arguing, and if we are animals (which I agree with, we are animals) should we not have rights either?? Do I need to spell everything out? Or not be as figurative, maybe you as a male don't understand.... Escaped, not as in prison bu...

I check the inside tummy area to see if it's warm.... but ears are a good idea too, thanks Karin. Gabbana was out most of the day yesterday and it was - 20C...

I use baby gates and if the space is big I conntect several of the with zip ties, although it`s ...
