    Grids Free cube grids in Missoula MT

    I am cleaning out my storage shed and have lots of cube grids to giveaway. I don't plan on having Guinea pigs again so want to give them away. Going to ask the Humane society when they are open to see if they want them but thought I'd try here also.

    Old pig

    My Ingrid is starting to show her age. I'm not really sure how old she is but according to the pet supply store owner who gave her to me she was around 5 when she gave her to me 3 years ago. She eats and drinks well but has lost some weight. Is there anything special I need to do for her?

    Before and after cages

    Londo the bunny is gone

    Londo died yesterday morning. He was a little over 7 years old. He had a tough year with his sister dying and getting a chicken egg sized bladder stone removed from his 4 pound body. I think he had a stroke or kidney failure. I miss his cute little black face.

    Veronica Mars

    Did anyone see the Veronica Mars episode last night? How they portrayed animal rights people was very on tract. They didn't show them as crazies as so many other tv shows do, just people who care about the well being of animals. It is such a well written and acted show I can't figure out why the...
