唉~每次夏天都會有蟻災 如果沒有用外面的pest control 就。會。遭。殃! 因為現在幾乎家家戶戶都用專業pest control 每個月都按時來服務 所以沒有用專業pest control噴藥的那戶 就是螞蟻大軍搶手的open house 山寨家兩年沒有用pest control 我們要是有見到螞蟻爸鼻就在屋外噴藥 噴了幾次有控制住 但是這次螞蟻似乎都是從水槽流水口跑出來 螞蟻利用比較不常用水的出水口 和房子縫隙間出沒 所以堵了這裡就從另外的地方出現 幾次噴藥後螞蟻都學乖了 專往高處爬 所有食物都得冰冰箱和封緊 就連爐子邊緣縫隙或有甜味滷汁的痕跡都會出現螞蟻 連貓的乾糧都不放過 所以爸鼻媽咪每天都得日出而作地大清掃和螞蟻作戰 媽咪拼命用吸塵器吸螞蟻,封雜貨甜食 特別直得注意是 螞蟻不吃玉米片,棉花球糖,也不愛盒裝賣的喜瑞兒麥片 即便這些都是包裝早就開了洞的碰也不碰 但是只要是有機棒棒糖,零售裝的有機香草麥片,和灑了晶糖義大利手指餅 螞蟻都鑽也要鑽破封套去吃 爸鼻猜說那些用了改良基因的玉米糖漿或玉米片 螞蟻知道有蟑螂基因不敢去吃 媽咪倒是覺得這些從阿根廷來的外客 阿根廷螞蟻Argentina ants真是無孔不入 而且人類長期用噴藥控制 這些螞蟻早就有抗藥性了 人類發明大量使用殺蟲劑,殺菌洗手皂,抗生素 想和細菌小蟲們作戰不共戴天 最後自然生態的反撲 造成下一代和年老後許多疾病的產生 就有醫學界一派見解 說新的一代有對許多食物過敏 抵抗力減弱容易得流感是因為 人類過度用殺菌洗手皂保持環境乾淨 剛開始有異位性皮膚炎的新生代 多半出現在中上階級 現在新生兒有皮膚呼吸疾病越來越普及 這和人類不當控制生活環境 應該是息息相關 媽咪廢寢忘食與螞蟻奮戰第三天 螞蟻大軍没東西吃就改喝抗過敏藥 因為給小孩吃的抗過敏藥超甜而且會想睡 一堆螞蟻堆在角落慵懶地散步 其他還沒嚐過滋味的螞蟻大軍繼續搜尋可食甜食 希望天氣繼續冷下去 螞蟻冬眠我們才有好日子過 山寨家其實環境還不錯 唯一無法改變的是這山區還沒被人類開發蓋住宅前 本來就是個大蟻窩 所以院子常有螞蟻是稀鬆平常 但是每次天氣熱螞蟻就躲到家裡找食物 必須要與蟻共存的日子實在頭大啊

10 Things to Pack When Traveling with Your Cat When we think of traveling with a pet, we usually picture a dog happily jumping into the car and drooling over his owner's shoulder during the ride. Or we think of a calm, sleeping dog content in his carrier. The thought of a cat traveling to destinations unknown tends to conjure up an image of a scared, neurotic feline hissing through the gate of her carrier. Many dogs are comfortable traveling short and long distances but few cats are so inclined. So knowing what to pack to make your cat's and your trip more palatable is essential. Many cats don't like to travel for several reasons, the main being that they are territorial creatures. Your cat has worked hard to establish his territory in your house and, when you move him from his kingdom, he thinks he is trespassing on another's space. This puts your cat on guard and, at the same time, frightens him because he might have to defend this new territory at any time. Another drawback is the motion of a car, plane or train. A cat is designed to detect motion and the movement of the vehicle both confuses and disorients him. So, how can we make the trip less traumatic for our cats? Packing Well is the Key If you are prepared for your cat's needs and choose the items that you take carefully, you can alleviate a lot of the anxiety for both of you. An unprepared traveler will find that his stress rises as he finds along the way that he does not have the tools to care for the traveling cat. And his stress will affect said feline. What Things to Pack 1. Carrier: Some people opt for a special harness that secures to a seatbelt, but we highly recommend you stick to a hard shell carrier when traveling with your cat. A secured carrier is the safer way for your cat to travel and, if you get her used to it slowly before the trip, she will feel safe and comfortable in it. 2. Harness: Do bring a harness so your cat can stretch his legs at rest stops along the way. Stop every couple of hours at least. 3. Carrier Pad: Use a pad that your cat has been sleeping on at home. Bring additional pads or towels in case your cat has an accident during the ride, which is more than likely to happen. Keeping your cat dry and comfortable is essential to curbing his anxiety. 4. Toys: Many cats will ignore anything you place in their carrier yet familiar toys still seem to help calm kitty. Often cats will just lie on them instead of actually playing, but you might get your cat to play with a dangling toy in the vehicle at a rest stop. 5. Pheromones: Using a feline pheromone mimic collar or spray can help your cat relax on the trip. These pheromones are naturally secreted when a cat rubs his face on something so that, on returning to the spot, he is familiar with the scent and finds it comforting. Feliway spray can be used on your cat's bedding in his carrier or you can try a Good Behavior collar which creates a calming atmosphere for your cat anyplace. 6. Food and Water Supply: Calculate how much food you need to bring based on your cat's daily consumption. Bring enough for the whole trip so you don't possibly have to substitute a different brand at some point. It's better not to feed your cat while you're out on the road as it will likely just result in regurgitated food. Always bring more water than you think you'll need. It'll save you having to make stops just to get more. Offer it to your cat at every rest stop. 7. Bowls: There are many options for bringing along bowls for your cat - many people like the collapsible travel bowls but you can also get some that fit on the door of your cat's carrier. Keep in mind that water will splash as you roll along so only fill it half-way. 8. Treats: Bring several kinds of treats along and offer them to your cat at the rest stops. Don't be discouraged if she turns her nose up at them. After all, why should she trust something coming from the person who is putting her through this indignation? Leave a few in her carrier and she'll probably eventually eat them. 9. Litter Box: For the rest stops it's important to have a good little box system. The easiest place to put one when you stop is the floor of the passenger's seat. Let your cat roam around the car when parked and gently show her the box if needed. Your best bet is to get several disposable boxes with litter already in them so you can toss them after she's used them. 10. Medications and First Aid: It's easy to forget any medications that your cat takes so throw these into your bag early on in packing. Also bring a first aid kit which can be purchased at any large pet store or make one yourself with the following: gauze, medical tape, hydrogen peroxide, Neosporin (or similar product), tweezers, scissors, towels, sterile saline solution. And Don't Forget... Remember to pack your cat's vet records when you travel in case you need to bring her to a clinic during the trip. You should also gather information about vet clinics along your route so you know where to take her if there is an emergency. Check out this website for emergency clinics across the country. Also make sure any hotels you book are cat-friendly well in advance. With a little planning, a trip with your cat can be fun (or, at least, tolerable). And keep in mind that cats tend to recover very quickly once they've reached the destination and re-established their role as ruler of their kingdom.
Do Cat Families Have a Hierarchical Structure? If you have more than one or two cats and are an astute observer of feline behavior, you've noticed that cats do seem to adhere to established feline social structures. One of your cats may have "Alpha Cat" status, with other cats deferring to him. You may find pairs of your cats choosing to relax in proximity to each other to the exclusion of other cats, and each of your cats may have established her own "territory" however small it may be. Traditionally, Cats Were Not Thought To Be A Social Species Until fairly recently, cats were not thought to be a social species. A social species is one whose members form "stable relationships," as dogs do within their packs. For years, scientists considered lions to be the only true social cats with a hierarchical structure within their prides. Later, they discovered that Cheetahs and Bobcats had unique social structures, and more recently, that the domestic cat family (whether feral or house cats) has an established social hierarchy. Although some cats require a solitary lifestyle, others are content to live in small groups, particularly if all of the cats are neutered. Many pet cats thrive in the company of other cats especially if they have grown up among other cats. Though its ancestors may have led asocial lives, the domestic cat has evolved into a far more sociable animal both in a feral and a household setting. As recently as the 1970s, scientists viewed feral colonies as consisting of nothing more than a number of individual cats drawn to a common food supply, generally tolerating other cats in the area. The prevailing theory was that the cats' attraction to food was stronger than the instinct to fight off other cats. Since the cats did not exhibit well-established social behavior in the same way that dogs did, scientists assumed that they were unsociable. Many cat owners knew otherwise. Feral Colonies Exhibit A Complex Matriarchal Hierarchy In the years since those early studies, scientists studying the social behavior of cats have found that domestic cats, like lions, are definitely social cats with established cat social structures including complex matriarchal hierarchies similar to the lion prides. In feral colonies, observers have noted that related females in colonies are sometimes bonded so closely that they will den together when birthing, act as midwives for each other, and nurse each other's kittens, with kittens being raised cooperatively by all of the females. The mothers even join forces to drive off intruders and threats to the colony, including fighting off tomcats seeking to kill kittens so that the females can be brought back into estrus. House Cats Also Follow A Social Hierarchy In multi-cat households, domestic cats also adhere to a hierarchical structure, although it's more complex. In neutered colonies, the feline buddy system is not restricted to closely related cats and there seem to be no gender preferences. Studies over the last 30 years suggest that cats develop complex matriarchal hierarchies and that they have preferred buddies. Even strictly indoor cats have both hierarchy and territories. For example, you may have a cat who rules the couch, and another who favors the love seat, and neither will cross into the other's kingdom unless they are bonded pairs. Upheavals occur when a new cat joins the household and must carve out a new territory for himself. This usually requires that the resident cats adjust their boundaries, sometimes by force. When a cat in the household dies, her old territory will be annexed by another cat, usually the next one down in the hierarchy. Behavior patterns in a household of cats may change when another dies or leaves. A shy cat may assume a higher spot in the hierarchy and adopt behaviors consistent with that higher status. Rubbing Establishes Hierarchy How often does your cat greet you by rubbing her body affectionately against your legs? It's your cat's way of letting you know that you rank higher than her in the household hierarchy. Cats rub against their companions to mingle their scents and reinforce their bond. A cat's social standing can be measured by how often other cats rub against her. Cats higher up the hierarchy are rubbed against a lot, while lower ranking cats do most of the rubbing. So as you observe your own little house lions, take note of the feline social hierarchy within your household. Understanding it can prove useful in resolving behavior issues like inappropriate marking or territorial disputes between your cats. The napping tabby at the end of your couch sees himself as a fierce lion protecting his territory at the north end of the living room. Understanding that role can help you preserve household harmony.

The Top Cat Breeds for Apartment Dwellers The American Pet Products Manufacturers Association's 2009-10 Pet Owners Survey reports that there are approximately 93.6 million cats living in US households, while there are only about 77.5 million dogs. Part of the reason cats have overtaken dogs in the house pet popularity contest is that cats adapt more easily to indoor life and can cope better with their humans' busy lifestyles. However, some cats still make for better apartment housemates than others. The Apartment-Friendly Personality When choosing a feline roommate, look for the following temperament traits: •Adaptable, easygoing disposition •Doesn't need to be highly active to be happy •Soft-spoken •Can tolerate being alone for up to eight hours at a time (particularly if you work or are away a lot during the day) •Sociable •Not overly territorial Be sure to take your lifestyle into account when selecting a cat, too. If you plan to entertain a lot, be sure your cat will be able to tolerate --or even enjoy-- other people and the potential noise and chaos of parties (even a sedate dinner party is chaotic as far as some cats are concerned). Apartment-Friendly Breeds Below is a list of several breeds that are known to be good companions for apartment dwellers. Of course, personalities and temperaments will vary somewhat within each breed, so be sure to talk to your breeder to ensure that your feline friend will be a good fit for your living situation. The British Shorthair is particularly known for its ability to adapt well to apartment life. Quiet and friendly with its owner, this hardy breed is also a good fit for first-time cat owners. If you want a lap cat, this breed is for you. The easygoing and affectionate Persian, with its relatively placid demeanor, is a good fit for apartment life. However, the Persian does need attention and will not thrive in an environment where its owner is away a lot. The Persian requires daily grooming to prevent mats. If you like the Persian personality but would prefer a lower-maintenance coat, check out the Exotic, the short-haired version of the Persian. The Russian Blue is an affectionate but independent cat, well-suited for a life with working singles. They are known to be shy with strangers but very loyal to their favorite person. Their plush blue coat requires very little maintenance. They are moderately active and enjoy playing. The Javanese is playful, affectionate, and vocal. Although the Javanese can tolerate being alone during the day, they do need daily one-on-one time with their owners to be truly happy. This breed is best suited for first-time cat owners and would do best in the household of a retired senior. The Ragdoll is known for its laid-back and gentle temperament. If you're looking for a lap cat that enjoys playtime but isn't especially demanding, a Ragdoll could be your ideal companion. These cats should be kept indoors only and adapt well to apartment life. Other Apartment Cat Options There are lots of mellow, easygoing cats waiting at animal shelters for permanent homes. If you choose to adopt from a rescue organization, look for an adult cat. Once a cat is three years old or so, its personality is fully formed, and the shelter staff can help you find a feline friend that fits your lifestyle. If you can cope with the fact that your cat may not be with you for many years, senior cats tend to be especially calm and would welcome a warm and loving home for their golden years. Consider adopting two cats, either littermates or adult cats with compatible personalities. They can keep each other company and entertain one another while you're away, and you'll get twice as much love and affection when you return home after a long day. Special Considerations Your cat will benefit from having vertical territory. A tall cat tree or a special place on the mantel or bookshelf can give your feline friend the feeling that your apartment is much bigger than it is. This is particularly important if you have more than one cat; the extra space can help to prevent stress-related behavior problems such as fighting or inappropriate elimination. Ultimately, the most important factor in selecting an apartment-friendly cat is not its breed but its personality. Your breeder can help you choose a companion that will suit your living situation and your lifestyle. Be honest about your housing and your lifestyle--including how long you tend to be away from home for work or travel--and if a breeder tells you that a particular breed is not suitable for life in small apartments, take their word for it. Breeders want their cats to have good "forever homes" and will do everything they can to ensure a good match. When you take your time to find the right cat, you and your feline friend can be boon companions for life. Advice from Other Cat Owners The Best Cat for Someone with Allergies Cat allergies come from a protein made in the cat's saliva and skin but not the fur. When the cat sheds those skin cells (dander) are spread around. However there are two types of cats that naturally have lower levels of the protein. They are the Siberian (big with long hair) and the Russian Blue (smaller cat with low shedding short hair). Sometimes a hairless or Rex cat might be tolerable, but only because those breeds require frequent bathing which removes some of the dander. I have family members that are allergic to cats but they have lived with a RB without any problems. ~Kate B., owner of Korat Get more advice » The Least Aggressive Cat Breed Ragdolls (as their name implies) are extremely "laid-back," docile, non-aggressive cats. They tend to relax when held. They are said to possess a non-fighting instinct, which means that if attacked, they do not defend themselves. Because Ragdolls lack the instinct to defend themselves when attacked, they must be kept as indoor pets only. However, they can be easily leash trained so that they can go for walks with you outside. They are very "people" oriented and love to be around others, which often finds them greeting guests and/or following their owners around in a fashion similar to a puppy. They are often quite an attraction in a show ring because of their docile dispositions and acceptance of the judge placing them on their backs, holding them like a baby.

Richard Lovelace (1618–1657) was an English poet in the seventeenth century. His most quoted excerpts are from the beginning of the last stanza of To Althea, From Prison: Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars a cage; Minds innocent and quiet take That for an hermitage Walk two moons-有關一名少女踏上尋找母親之途 而途中她所認識的另一名女孩 讓她從旁觀的角度看了一遍自己的故事... The BFG-故事內容比較像給小孩子看的 篇幅短 如果時間不多很適合 Holes-內容環環相扣 許多巧合安排縝密 有關一個被冤枉定罪的少年 被送到少年勞動營 而後發現... Wringer-意想不到的結局 有關一個住在喜好獵殺鴿子的小鎮 但卻喜愛鴿子的男孩 Tuck Everlasting-敘述一家人 因緣際會變得長生不老 多年來守著的秘密 一天竟然被發現了... ps.這本也很薄
連著兩週爸鼻都得出差 再加上這周學校老師從星期四到下星期一都要罷課 媽咪忙著孩子各種上課下課課外活動 還得計畫山大王的暑假課程 所以日記就缺少內容了 多半以照片畫面取代 自從開始養寵物後 媽咪就開始注意關於貓的柴鹽油米醬醋茶的特價 之前養魚是因為爸鼻同事給了除了魚之外的完整水族箱 雖然用過但是狀況都很好 魚也吃不多一小罐飼料就可以養好久 只有換水清魚缸比較麻煩 何況爸鼻都會照顧換水清魚缸的工作 媽咪除了清水缸裡的擺飾外 很少有照顧寵物的感覺 養了貓後 每天的工作就增加很多了 除了教大小兩隻待貓之道 還要清貓砂清貓餐具和貓窩及小毯子 同時得留心Petco和Petsmart各種促銷活動 當然最重要是有空要陪貓貓曬太陽摸摸牠 雖然說貓咪是送給山大王七歲生日禮物 但是山大王還沒有養成照顧牠的習慣 多半是跟貓貓玩 山大王很怕妹妹去"寵貓" 因為貓也很怕山大妞 但在山大妞勾住牠脖子壓著牠摸時 貓咪一點都不敢反抗 面對太熱情的山大妞 貓咪見到就跑 跑不掉只好乖乖就範 山大妞一次把貓咪放在她玩具寵物袋裡 貓咪一直貓貓叫引起山大王注意 山大王見到山大妞為了不讓貓咪跑掉 就把牠當玩具寵物關起來 山大王很生氣大叫媽咪幫忙 因為山大妞每次因為哥哥不讓她抱貓 也會"獸"性大發踢抓山大王 山大王很心疼山大妞把貓咪關起來 還難過地哭起來 果然快四歲的山大妞還是不太懂得待貓之道 教她好幾遍要讓貓來去自如 不要抱牠或把貓關在房間裡 山大妞都覺得貓每次都躲她自尊受傷 就跟媽咪說他生日也要一隻貓 但是要可以抱著的lap cat 要讓小孩可以抱著寵的貓就是布偶貓-ragdoll 但是Ragdoll很依賴很黏主人 就怕到時候幫她找到布偶貓 最後還是黏到媽咪身上就慘了 現在Stella二樓隻懶貓已經不躲床下了 喜歡伺機跳到溫暖的床上撒嬌 她是隻很聰明安靜的貓 雖然我們都不讓她待床上 她也會睡覺時間到了就乖乖走出我們臥室 去躺在臥室門前牠的pet bed 不過偶爾走進房間還是會見她窩床上 媽咪覺得養貓比養小孩要容易好幾百倍呢 雖然Stella很獨立但見到山大妞哭時 不管時白天晚上貓都會很關心地跑來看山大妞怎麼了 然後乖乖讓大小姐摸摸牠 已經習慣我們一家人作息的貓咪 也會喜歡在大家在的起居室活動 媽咪最新的目標就是幫她弄個cat tree 讓她有高的地方可以爬 提升她在家的地位啦
