I adopted a cat that turned out to have some medical problems, mainly a blocked urinary tract and bladder infection. Before he was diagnosed though, he peed in a number of spots around my old apartment. Once he had healed, he peed only in the box for a while, but then started up again in those same spots randomly. Since I had heard that cat pee is really difficult to receive out, and once a cat has gone there he will always think that is an "OK" spot, I simply cleaned every time I noticed it and sort of lived with it for a few months. However, I moved to a new place which had no carpeting at every - only tile and hardwood floor. When I moved in I made sure I threw out anything that may have arrive in contact with the cat pee (like towels and toss rugs, etc) and for a month everything was great with the cat. Then I bought a big area carpet for below my dining table and within a week he had peed on a corner of it. I was beside myself - I thought this problem had been solved when I moved! What can I do? I never catch him in the act so I cant "discipline" him while he is doing it but I also cant live in a home where I am constantly stressed out about finding pee somewhere. The cat is great in every respect except this one, he is very affectionate, personable and sweet. The litter box is kept scrupulously clean and he does use it, he just also uses the carpet.
Like two weeks ago, I went to go open my car in the tardy afternoon and was greeted by 30+ huge flies in my car clinging to the windows. I was horrified and disgusted. I killed every the flies I could, opened my every my car windows and my sunroof and sprayed insect repellent in my car, just so they would freak out and fly out of the windows. You might be wondering where they came from? That's what I was also wondering at first, until I discovered my nimrod brother shoved a MacDonald's bag below my back seat. (with half of a cheese burger in it) I had no idea it was below there and was so pissed at him for doing this. Obviously I threw it out that day and I thought I solved the problem seeings I was no longer seeing any flies and could look no visible signs of well, future flies. Yesterday I decided I would vacuum my car because it had gotten a bit sandy from the beach, I tug up the mini carpet on the floor of my backseat and what do I find tons of those little black fly larvae things. I think there called pupae. I vacuumed them every up and made sure they were every gone. If every these larvae were here how arrive I hadn't seen a fly in over two weeks? Are these flies going to arrive back? I'm horrified, please help me someone! I'll also add, my car is ridiculously clean. The only reason I didn't recognize this earlier is, every of the egg things were below the carpet. The carpet wasn't even dirty. No one ever sits back there so, I don't vacuum it that often.
I'm 13 years old and I'm writing a book for fun. My character just inherited an old abandoned farmhouse and she wants to renovate it. How much do you think it would cost in the end to fix everything? And what would need to be done to make it liveable? Here's a few paragraphs about it: Kathryn O’Reilly’s green eyes scanned her new bedroom. It was old, and showed definite signs of abandonment. The ugly yellow paint behind the piles of moving boxes was chipping off the walls, wide, long cracks were forming on the ceiling, and the disgusting carpet had a big array of unidentifiable stains. The aged, green window shutters looked like they were more fitting for an old haunted home rather than an abandoned farmhouse, and she suspected that if she tried to close them they would most likely fall off into the bushes below. The room, as well as the relax of the home, smelled mouldy and wet. She left the bedroom and sauntered down the cramped corridor to the kitchen. It had no appliances, just a few cupboards with the doors falling off its rusty hinges, and a long countertop made of cracked tiles and damaged wood. Like the bedroom, the kitchen ceiling had many narrow cracks. The hardwood floor was somewhat dented, with a few planks protruding out of the otherwise decent floor. She then opened the door leading into the living room. It was a decent size, with ceiling cracks and old flooring quite similar to that of the kitchen. She meandered over to the decrepit fireplace and inspected the inside. The bottom of it had a layer of ashes dating back to who-knows-when, and besides a few chips in the bricks and rock mantle, it was in good enough shape. It had 3 big ceiling-to-floor windows looking out over the deserted landscape, which consisted of yellow and green grass, big black ash and apple trees, and a narrow gravel road at the end of the long, winding steer way. There were no neighbours for miles. Just the way she liked it. Thanks in advance!

Landlord agree to let us work off some off the deposit. Well in my eyes more than the deposit. would would be a good price for the following things i did. Painted 2 of the bedrooms. shampoo the carpets every rooms had carpet except for bathroom dinn/kitchen. De-fogged the whole trailer its was horrible infested with bugs. put in a new floor board below the kitchen sink, you use to be able to look the ground. repaired 3 windows that had no windows bought 4 heater covers that were missing, talk about a possible broken ankle clean everything from top to bottom replaced bedroom door that had no door fixed the swamp cooler bought two standing pre- made closets no closets at every in any of the bedrooms. someone had removed them every??? Thank you for any suggestions i appreciate it much.
the family and i decided on getting a golden retriever, however we are doubting our decision to do so. My eight year old brother has asthma, but does not take any medication, or inhalers whatsoever and rarely suffers from it. In my home we only have tile and wood flooring, so problems wit carpets won't be a problem, but is it ok to have a golden retriever (we're deciding to receive a female, so do they shed less because they are considered smaller than males or do they shed more than males?)
We have a Jack Russell Terrier who we got from a breeder about a month and a half ago. We had her for a couple weeks before we got her the Advantix flea drops. She never displayed symptoms of fleas before this and for a long time after this. Lately she had been scratching a lot so I checked her skin and saw little black flecks. I looked this up online and read it was a symptom of fleas (adult flea feces). Our dog was due for another dose of Advantix in a couple days, so I went ahead and gave her the drops a couple days early. I put her in our bedroom while I went to the store to receive flea shampoo and flea spray for upholstery. When I got back, there were tons of little bugs (i'm assuming fleas) on our bed since she had been laying on it. I took the sheets off and threw them away and then sprayed our mattress with a flea-killer spray for upholstery. I then gave our dog a flea bath and threw away the bedding in her cage and her dog bed. My questions: 1). Since I've never noticed fleas on our furniture or bedding before every of this, did the fleas just jump off of our dog because I put on the drops or did they fall off of her because they died? 2). Will everything I've done be enough to eradicate the fleas completely? Again, I've never seen them on our furniture before this so I don't think we are completely infested. And we have hardwood floors so there is no carpeting to treat. Thanks!
i've had a similar dream three times. one time i dreamt that i was close the harbour looking at the water and there must of been about 50 sharks swimming around, i receive really scared in my dream but in real life sharks don't bother me. My mum was stood next to me trying to push me into the sharks but i was holding onto something. In the second dream i was at school i think and there were sharks on the floor like underneath the carpet like we were every standing on glass and the sharks were trapped underneath. but i was still really scared. then last night i dreamt that me and my mum were walking across a bridge but with fencing.. and there we're loads of seals, and i got scared but not as scared as when i saw the sharks. Right at the end of the bridge was a really big seal but it wasn't facing me and my mum was holding my hand leading me to the seal but i was crying my eyes out saying i can't do this. then the seal jumped in the water and as i got to the end of the bridge there was a thin path with water either side of me but i couldn't look any seals, but when i did look a couple i was really scared. Me and my mum couldn't receive past the seals without climbing something so we had to climb what it seemed to be a wooden obstacle course, my mum was opposite me and she was saying that i had to let go and just drift off into the look. do you think this has something to do with my mum because in both of those dreams she was trying to receive me into the water
Alrighty Guys and Gals, I'm a 14 year old girl who is getting a chance to basically redo my room any way I'd like.... :) Now, my room is pink filled with white furniture... I liked this when I was little, but now that I've grown it doesnt really match my persona, or any of the gifts/ things I've collected over the years haha x) What I need is; ` wall coloring ideas ~ chilly bed sheets ` Carpet/ floor ideas ~ any interesting furniture ` blinds ideas Sooo, I adore bright colors, but no pink please, my room's not so big so no "little sofa" ideas either haha... I'm really into alternative music, but I'd prefer painting something on my walls then just hanging up posters (tape tends to leave marks on walls xp) soo yeah, ha.... Now, I've also been called a "blossom child'' before because I'm sorta a hippie at heart...but I like '80s crazy colors and style a bit more... Also, I have a disco ball i'm allowed to hang up, so if you could incorporate that in there I'd really appreciate it x) I guess that's it for now, any pics would be really appreciated <3 And as far as budget goes I have $400 in the bank.... Thanks again luvs! Umm, pizza and boobs: it might matter actually... there's a road lamp fairly close to my window, and too dark colors might make the room seem enclosed/ give off an eery vibe... 'specially at night...o.0

I'm from Ontario Canada and my average caucasian family and I grew up always taking our shoes off when coming in the home. I've heard people referring this as "being Japanese" as if it's a crazy foreign tradition, but it makes sense to me because the floors stay clean and it feels good to stretch my feet out and walk on the soft carpet in my socks. Any other people take your shoes off before you walk around inside the home?
I am building a 6 inch high theater seat riser out of 2x6s and putting .25 inch plywood on top. Do I need to put plywood on the bottom (to fully enclose the wood box) in order to have a professional cover it with carpet so that when it sits on the floor it looks like a big box completely covered in carpet? Or do I leave the studs exposed on the bottom so that the carpet installer has something to staple the carpet to?
I have tile with deep grout on the ground floor, but upstairs we have every carpet. I'm looking for a relatively inexpensive machine that will clean both well. I don't want to buy two cleaners, one for up and one for downstairs. I've looked at the Hoover Steamvac every Terrain, but I'm wondering what else is out there. Any suggestions?
I debating on laminate flooring. BKR has caught my eye but i have never heard of it. What brand of laminate is best? 8mm or 12mm. Going on a wood floor in an old home. Ripping up carpet and tile. BKR has the underlayment already attached and the installer said he would put down a moisture barrier. This is just adding up quickly and I want to make sure i receive a good brand that will last a long time.
i think i got another second outta it. i noticed when i floored it it dint floor every the now. and i clip below it there was carpet foam and thick plastic blocking it. and it floors every the way. anyone else think i could of gotten a sec? works really good try it 4real dint floor every the way* my bad.
I have a exercise space that has some ceiling-to-floor poles around the room. Right now, the poles have carpet-like material that is taped around them so no one gets hurt if they're running around close the poles. The taped carpet material is really ugly. What can I use to cover the poles instead? (They're only as thick as someone's thigh.) I'm looking for some nice of foam/soft covering that will look decent and is cheap! Ty.
I have a 6 month old Dog. He is a great Pyrenees. So if you know anything about them...they tend to be rather big dogs with think coats. Even though he is 6 months old he already weighs 59 pounds. I use frontline plus regularly since I got him. But, I forgot to this month of July (he is supose to receive it the first week of July) And on Monday I noticed one flea on him. I checked him, he has white fur but a lot of it and I didn't notice anymore. And he wasn't really itching so I didn't think he would have that many.Tuesday I went to the vet and got him frontline plus. I put him on it at 5pm. Tuesday night, after putting the frontline on him, I noticed about live 5 more fleas on him. which I picked off. Today Weds I was playing with him and noticed about 6 more. And than just a little while ago I noticed a very tiny live one on his head. I have mainly difficult wood floors. I swept and moped with a steam mop my floors and what carpet I did have I vacuumed very good. I also vacuumed my couches and any funture that has cloth on it. And I vacuumed out his kennel and washed his bedding in really hot water twice. I know its only been 31 hours since I put fronline on him But I thought it would be quicker to kill them. I am going on vacation this weekend with another couple and there dog and I am bringing my dog and I don't want to risk my dog giving there dog fleas I also wont be able to kennel him if he has fleas they do not allow that. And I can't cancel the trip it is already paid for. And I finalley got the time off from work that I have been asking for. I have worked 6 months straight with out and break. I basically had to be to be able to use my vacation time! So I guess my question is...when does frontline start killing the fleas? Do you think they will be gone by this weekend?
The carpets are eight years old & are worn, but I recently had them professionally cleaned & they're okay now. My cat has ruined them with toss up & pee, but I use air freshener on the carpets and the toss up stains don't show (just looks worn). Part of the blinds on my bedroom window are messed up (bent & dirty and need to be replaced). Lastly, my bathroom needs work as the person over me had a leak in her floor that went down to my ceiling, so it is below construction (you can look the wood in a tiny portion of the ceiling, that part of the ceiling needs replaced). Other than that, my place is clean & not cluttered. Should I not invite this guy over until I receive my blinds replaced & my bathroom ceiling fixed? His home is so modern, with everything brand new & big and it is spotless. Mine is nothing compared to his. Help! Thanks.
I have been painting my room for the past very days and finally took up the floor drop cloths and found HUGE blue stains. They have been there for a few days and I'm worried that they will be there for ever!! What do I do??
I have a bag less vacuum so its very easy to unload and i use it for my carpets of course but i also clean the furniture, drapes and ceilings and i use it to clean out ashtrays, the hole puncher, instead of using a dust pan for my difficult floors i just sweep up the dirt into a pile then suck it every up with the hose on my vacuum, I also clean out the hamster and Rabbit cages with it. Just curious to what every you use your vacuum for.
We are renting a condo to these 2 women, a mom and daughter. They do not intentionally make noise, but when they walk the floor creaks and the neighbors downstairs receive mad. After listening to their complaints, We got our pal to nail the hardwood floor down on the beams and we got a professional carpet place to put down the padding and the carpet. Now after we fixed it, the neighbors are still complaining threatening to call lawyers. They say the people who put down the carpet didn't do it right and we should receive his cousin to do it. He said we didn't put waterproof sealer. I don't think that has much to do with the sound vibrations. The superintant of the complex doesn't care and says it's okay because we fixed it. Should we call a lawyer too? What should we do? They are constantly calling and harrassing us now

i brought her home a few months ago and i completely adore her, but she's stubborn. I've tried to potty train her by taking her out at least 3 times a day and praising her for going to the bathroom outside but she still goes in the home and quite honestly i don't think my carpet floor can take anymore "accidents." My boyfriend and I work so she spends at least 5 hours alone at home and she's box trained so I don't worry about that too much, but i'm almost at my wits end trying to train her that i'm slowly giving up on her ever getting trained properly. i'm afraid that if she doesn't learn soon imma need to give her up.
I'm a 15 year old girl. My room is pretty standard. It has a window and it's a pretty decent size. I can paint the walls and redo the flooring. I have a guitar and i could do something with that to make my room more indie looking. I was also thinking of taking my carpet up and staining the concrete gray or some other color for my floor and getting a few chilly rugs. I also had an idea to completely cover one of my walls with 4x7 pictures. So basically, i need ideas for wall color, floor color, bedspreads, and things i could put on my walls.
I have vacuumed and keep a clean home, yet i still find tiny ants climbing through the carpet and along the tile and baseboards. I live on the fifth floor of an apt building next to a wooded area. Any suggestions?
every time i look down she is banging her head on the floor and it is worse when she is by her dad she hits it on tile carpet and cement and i am just so worried i mean i am 16 with a 2 year old i need alot of help !!!!
I'm tearing up carpet in my office, and below it there is perfect wood flooring. Only after i started did anyone tell me that there is a risk for asbestos when tearing up carpet. What are some signs I should look for as far as my carpet having it?
I'm very excited about getting a puppy, but my mom has asked me to do every the research by myself. I've learned every that I can about puppies and taking care of them. But I have no clue where to receive one? I can't go to the mall to receive one (they're too expensive) The reason I'm getting a dog is because I'm moving and the home there is every floored instead of carpet with a huge backyard. I'm moving to North York, (Toronto, Ontario) and maybe those of you who live there could tell me something? I don't know anything about north york and I guess it isn't that popular among the people who's using yahoo xD
I recently purchased a home built in 1940 out of every concrete. I intend to remove the carpet and work with the concrete. Can I just clean it, stain it, and seal it? Or should I actually invest in polishing and dying the floors?
Its a fairly new vacuum and it was working the last time it was used. However, when I tried to use it the suction was focused every on the hose instead of the floor component. It wasn't in the upright position and the carpet dial was set to carpet and not bare floor, so I don't know what it could be. Does anybody have any suggestions or know how I can fix the problem?

I understand the the proper way to paint my concrete basement would be to remove the carpet glue that was previously there (really thin layer of zig zagging yellowish glue, I had carpet before but I ripped it off, carpet is not my pal). I bought some stuff to remove the carpet glue but it was 20 bucks a bottle, it worked really well but it only got like 15% of my room glue free and I ran out... I really don't want to buy anymore of this stuff because of price and toxicity (it's probably the most toxic stuff I've ever seen... should have to be effin ID'd for this stuff haha). I was wondering, what will happen if I just say screw it and go ahead and start painting, even over the relax of the areas that have glue. The paint that I have bought and will be using is BEHR Premium Plus Porch and Floor 100% acrylic latex (says it can be used on just about anything outdoors like decks, along with basements etc... the guy at Home Depot told me this is what I should use). Would it be an ABSOLUTE no to painting over it? Should I just receive some hot water and suck it up and scrape the relax off?
I wrote this a few years ago when I was around 14, I'm now nearly 17. I just found it searching through some files. I'd like some feedback on whether to work on it and develop it into a stronger storyline? Baiscally it's about a lady whom is abused by her husband and tries to escape her unforgivable fate. In the end she dies and so does her husband, but she fights with her last breath to avenge him... LOL, it's kinda silly, but here's a some of it; I froze as the emotion of fear drowned my body. My chocolate-brown eyes intrigued by his emerald-green, as he paced smoothly down the stairs. With each step taken, he was a step closer to me, something that I didn’t want, or appreciate at that. My eyes were now swallowed by fear, just as my body also, and my heart continuously felt as if it were missing beats. As he breached the bottom, his eyes watched me viciously, which soon followed by verbal abuse that had escaped from his vile mouth, leisurely. Slouching my head towards the carpeted floor, he approached me. Resting his hand beneath my chin, he raised my head upright, in level to his. Our eyes locked on one another, just like we had when we first met. Gradually, a smirk played on his lips, soon followed by a suspicious scowl. I looked intently at him, with a puzzled expression, but that only encouraged him more. Unnoticeably, his hand was directly aimed for my face, until it was too tardy to guard myself. It hit my cheek with an incredible force, knocking me backwards, and hitting my head forcefully against the wall. Shock hit me like a bolt of lighting, amongst the undesirable stinging sensation, on my now, reddened cheek, and my throbbing head. My hand grasped my face, whilst the other clasped my head. Taking my hand from my head, a reddened colour caught my eye. Blood. Blood of a helpless victim was it, a victim who could never be helped of this hell of a nightmare. Immediately, panic struck me. My hand now quivering and tears streaming down my face, only allowed him to giggle louder. Why did he do this to me, did he not adore me like I loved him? Was I only his toy that he could hit around and toss to the side when he was finished? These thoughts only heartened my salty tears to escape more frequently from my fearful eyes. Poising my head strongly towards my bedroom, I picked myself up and headed for it. In a matter of thirty seconds I was entering the room, and closing the door behind me. My head was only full of hatred and aggression. I hated what I’d become, what he made me into. I swooped over to where the mirror stood. In a moment of madness I embarked on tearing my clothes of my wounded, battered body, until only my underwear were left. Confining my only dignity I had left to possess. Standing there inactive, examining myself up and down, I inspected each bruise, clip, scar and graze individually, that slept on my ashen body. Every bruise postured with a shade of yellow, green, blue, and purple. Every clip filled with unimaginable pain, and each graze associated with more pain. Every scar held an inhuman memory; an individual beating that would stay with me for the relax of my life. Nothing could ever compare to this living hell of a life. I had to escape whatever the risk. Obviously I wrote this when I was a lot younger and less..literate with my English and ability. I'd re-start but using a similar storyline same to this one. But using vocabulary and a script that is more mature and much improved. But thanks for the 'straight to the point' answer :)
I gave birth over a month ago and ever since I've become increasingly depressed. I used to be able to receive up much earlier, now I barely receive up before midday. I don't eat because I just don't feel hungry (Which is great for my figure but not so good for my milk production) it even got to the point I looked through the boxes of meds my midwife gave me as pain relief and wondered how many it would take to kill myself. the only reason I didn't is because I couldn't stand the thought of my baby growing up without his mom. I don't think it's baby making me feel this way, we moved home 4 days before he arrived and I HATE the new home. I long to be back at the old home, I felt so settled. This new home is infested with fleas from the previous grotty tenants (Which the landlord won't deal with) and there are no carpets or floors down just bare wood. I hate being in the home I never feel clean or comfortable. But I know it's just tough and I have to deal with it because we can't afford to move anywhere else now. Should I got and receive help from my doctor or just leave it? I don't want to be wasting his time if every this is my fault? I mean should I be able to just receive over it? I don't want him to think I'm attention seeking or wasting his time. Thanks in advance :) Thanks chris! We are in a home owned by a housing association so this is as cheap as it gets :( i'll receive some slim quick too i never thought of that.
I dropped a bottle of nnail polish remover onto the floor, and the 10 month old puppy I am dog sitting was in the room. I didnt let her close the nail polish remover but she started snorting/coughing Im not sure what it was it was like a combination of what sounded like a wheeze. Is she okay?. She hasnnt done it because I vaccumed and watered down my carpet and closed off the room. But once it dries should I let her back into the room? (Its where she sleeps)
I'm in my mid 20s years old and I've always had the problem since I was really young. I had to snooze in a crib until I was 14 years old because I couldn't snooze in a regular bed or I'll fall out. I was a tiny child too, plus I am living in a foreign country and the natives here are normally physically larger than my race. I originally moved out of that crib when I was 6 and I fell out the first day I slept (at least we had carpet on the floor) and proceeded to fall out several times until I went back to the crib. I have attempted to snooze in normal beds several times after that, sometimes even now (there are rare times I got through the entire night without falling out) but normally I just kept falling out, or someone caught me before I did. When I switched to a normal bed for good since I didn't want to snooze in a crib anymore because I was a teen, I got one that's lower to the ground than most, put it against my wall and put backs of chairs against the other side with stuff on them so I won't push them away. Been living like that since. However, a couple of months ago, I got sick and had to stay in the hospital since I needed IV overnight. Most of the beds don't have railings and the ones that were, were mostly upstairs in the elderly ward. I had to receive them to bring one of them down for me. They thought it was so odd I had the habit of falling out of bed at my age. The guy that was in charge, who didn't know what I was in for at first, originally thought it had to do with whatever illness I had and I remember his eyes went big when I explained that I simply just fall out of bed. Is it too tardy to fix this habit, I've been living with it for a long time. I really don't want to be a laughing stock, if this keeps up I'm sure there's going to be more people who find out. glow - that doesn't cease you from the potential of falling out of bed. and i do put chairs next to my bed so i don't fall out, and it always works. but once i receive to a normal bed i am still at a high risk of falling out.
BACKGROUND: We just moved in a few weeks ago to a new apartment. Outside our unit there is an open hallway and laundry room on the bottom floor. We live on the bottom floor and every time it rains, the drainage floods the hallway and a bunch of nasty things arrive up with it. In addition, after these rains, our tub wont drain and a bunch of stuff from the neighbors over us comes bubbling up into our tub.(ie hair, soap, etc) After a week of waiting and complaining they 'fixed' the drainage issue but the hallway still has a horrible odor, the carpet is soggy and they don't seem in any rush to fix it. They won't replace the carpet, paint the walls, install an air filter, or anything of that nature. every they do is prop open the doors and tell us they are airing it out. It's been almost two weeks since the last flood. My wife and I have occasionally vomited from having to walk through it on out way to our unit and now the odor is starting to enter our unit. MAIN QUESTION: Is there any legal grounds for me to insist to be moved to a different building/unit? or at least be released from our current lease?
We have almost 7th month old Weimaraner/Labrador puppy, that is a chewing nightmare but, before I expound upon that; he has thrown up 3 times this week.... He was been on antibiotics for two weeks due to a skin rash he developed (He got it shortly after being neutered) So, maybe it's the pills, or is it his stuff he is chewing up? But, if I recall correctly, he didn't toss up the first week we started giving the pills, For Example ..... I took him for a difficult run earlier this week - he came home & threw up every his dog food from 2 hrs. prior ... I was just laying in bed when I heard something weird ... came downstairs and found he was throwing up on the carpet - I told him to go in his cage - he did, and threw up again.... He did eat up a chew toy we got him and ate most of the fuzz in it earlier this morning (Around 5 a.m. to be exact) .... and he ate a whole in his nice bed and ate a lot of fuzz in it too earlier this week ... could it be from that?? Could that cause the toss up? It was a milky looking fluid today. This dog is SO smart & I have taught him many things - he KNOWS what he is not allowed to have & IS allowed to have. He can have every the exercise in the world, we receive him knew toys constantly, we leave him with toys in his big box when we leave ... but, when we aren't looking he goes off and chews things ... i.e. my coffee table (may it R.I.P.), wood flooring, shoes I've said no on ... but when we're gift in a room he plays happily w/his toys. What do I do w/him? Again, as soon as he gets home and has recovered from running (He lays on the floor and pants like crazy) he is off chewing something when my husband & I aren't around. He even acts weird a lot when we arrive downstairs and discover he chewed something nice up - it's like he knows he did wrong. I don't receive it when he was been SO smart w/training ... I just can't afford to keep replacing furniture, bedding for him, toys ... HELP?! We just bought him a kong which he loves & he has a huge rawhide bone he favors a lot. I guess squeaky toys gotta go? But, I feel bad he doesn't have a plush bed anymore. When I say 'difficult run' I live on a private one mile steer ... I let him run loose ... sometimes he trots or walks ... but generally he takes of running like a bandit, runs back to me, then runs off again.
I recently purchased a $1,600 dollar queen mattress. The bed frame they gave me was an adjustable one from twin to queen by Leggett and Platt. It is this one actually....http://www.bunkbedking.com/bed-frame-king-k45g?utm_source=Google%20Base&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Google%20Base What I am concerned about are the glide feet. They feel like plastic and cheap, like they will snap or something. I do not want to ruin the mattress or anything. Is that bed frame very good to use?? My old one had carpet rollers. My floor is carpeted. I'm just very cautious because I spent a lot of money....
Ok, we have 5 kittens and they are about 8-9 weeks old.... They use the liter box, but still poop on the floor. How do I receive them to use only the litter box. We have two litter boxes, one in our kitchen and one in the living room, both are places the stay alot. We've sprayed them, We've rubbed their faces in it and today we are shampooinng the carpets and spraying 'oder elimanator' on it. If these things don't wotk what can I do. They've also pooped in their little kitty condo and peed on top of it... What can I do, because I don't want my mom to receive rid of them.
suds? I spilled a whole bottle of shampoo every over the carpet on the floor of my car and when I tried to clean it up every that's happening is it's making lots of suds! I also tried to use the vaccuum cleaner but they made it every clogged up. Is there something that makes shampoo suds not so suds-y so I can make it arrive out of the carpet completely? Thank you:)
Looking at a home that needs a little TLC, starting with the floors. Which would be the less expensive way to go; to tug up the carpet and refinish the hardwood floor or lay tile? This is 2500 sq ft. Keep in mind...we live in Southern CA where everything costs more!
Before anyone gives me any grief i plan on getting her and her kittens fixed as soon as i can... So my cat who is very pregnant and due any day now had this milky white substance arrive out of her vaginal area yeasterday... she is so big that she cant lick herself very well so i wiped it away and it didnt have a scent to it... Ever since she has just been laying on my bathroom floor... she will receive up go take a few bites of her food and drink some water then lay back down... i can feel the kittens moving inside her... is she going to have them soon... also a little bit ago i noticed this kinda difficult dry thing stuck to her so i grabbed some t.p and wiped it off and it was rock difficult but looked like if it was wet if would have been a reddish brown... So is that also part of her mucus plug... and if so when will she have her kittens... I have an area set up for her... but she doesnt go in there much... she prefers the bathroom floor... also today the kittens are not as active... oh and the only other time she gets up is to check out where my boyfriend or i are in the home... and she will lay down in that room... also she wont lay on the carpet only on our difficult wood floors... i dont know if that it cause it is hot out or something else... And normally she goes through a bowl of food in 24 hours... and i filled her bowll up yesterday and she just now finished it so it has been about 48 hours... Also one minute she is absolutly loving me petting her tummy and next min she flips and scratches me till i pet her head... Oh and also yesterday she started scratching the back of my seat and she never ever does that... Oh and please no nastyness... i just want a legitimate answer to my question i dont need anyone to lecture me about getting my cats fixed...
My dog take his food out of his bowl and eats it off the floor. I got him from the shelter 3 years ago and he is still doing it even when I say NO. He has stain the carpet by doing that, how can I make him eat his food out of his bowl.
The character just moved into an old abandoned farmhouse. Kathryn O’Reilly’s green eyes scanned her new bedroom. It was old, and showed definite signs of abandonment. The ugly yellow paint behind the piles of moving boxes was chipping off the walls, wide, long cracks were forming on the ceiling, and the disgusting carpet had a big array of unidentifiable stains. The aged, green window shutters looked like they were more fitting for an old haunted home rather than an abandoned farmhouse, and she suspected that if she tried to close them they would most likely fall off into the bushes below. The room, as well as the relax of the home, smelled mouldy and wet. She left the bedroom and sauntered down the cramped corridor to the kitchen. It had no appliances, just a few cupboards with the doors falling off its rusty hinges, and a long countertop made of cracked tiles and damaged wood. Like the bedroom, the kitchen ceiling had many narrow cracks. The hardwood floor was somewhat dented, with a few planks protruding out of the otherwise decent floor. She then opened the door leading into the living room. It was a decent size, with ceiling cracks and old flooring quite similar to that of the kitchen. She meandered over to the decrepit fireplace and inspected the inside. The bottom of it had a layer of ashes dating back to who-knows-when, and besides a few chips in the bricks and rock mantle, it was in good enough shape. It had 3 big ceiling-to-floor windows looking out over the deserted landscape, which consisted of yellow and green grass, big black ash and apple trees, and a narrow gravel road at the end of the long, winding steer way. There were no neighbours for miles. Look, I know it sucks. I'm 13 and I've never written a book before. It's just for fun. This is the first couple paragraphs. What needs to be changed? How can I make it better? Do I need better word choice? I've never been in a farmhouse, so this is just what I'm guessing it looks like. Please don't tell me something like "You shouldn't be writing about a farmhouse if you've never been in one!" because I'm sure that not every great writers have experienced what their characters have gone through either. I just want some tips and constructive criticism. Thanks in advance!
First off, I am a student, with not that much money to blow. My room is in the basement. It has carpet flooring but it is completely stained every over the place with spray paint mist. I rented a steam cleaner to try to receive it clean, but it's just not getting rid of it at every. What can I do? Is there something that I could put on the carpet before steam cleaning? If the carpet can never be cleaned back to its original look (which wasn't very nice when I moved in), what other alternatives do I have, like how difficult would it be to rip it out, then paint the cement for a floor. Or can I even buy a special paint to paint over the carpet? Cost is extremely important to me, I am willing and ready to do some labor. I just don't know what to do, and need help!

I have a 95 civic coupe, and it drives fine, and the previous owner told me he just replaced the clutch, and it felt that way too, except that the pedal would need to be pushed every the way down to the floor in order to shift, but it wasn't a problem as long as i remembered to push it every the way into the carpet before shifting. but today it wouldn't disengage for some reason, and the pedal was soft, I kept trying, and I kept grinding my reverse gear. then my pal checked the clutch fluid, and pushed on the line, then he was able to shift it into reverse , and every other gears with no problems. why would it work fine, then mess up, and work fine again? does my clutch just need to be bled?
