Pellet heads!! What's up today?

Contract review and AS9100 guru = I read a lot, type a lot, cuss at my computer a lot, and explain what the words "is" and "shall" mean a lot .

 

A real cutie there!

 

I'm pretty sure I tried it both spinning and not spinning. I'll try again next weekend.

I'll bet ivanhoe nailed it. I hadn't had any vodka to help! Maybe I'll try that next weekend instead

 

Got 2" of rain this moring in 30-40 minutes. I dumped out my official measuring devices (straight sided and flat bottomed cat bowls) to measure what falls while I'm here at work. Glad the weather gurus were wrong - we were only supposed to get around an inch. At least a (small) dent in the 16.75" deficit has been made

 

7 cats, That's a lot of litter box duty. I hate doing it, but have to stay right at it to keep the odor down. Found if you don't keep the boxes clean, they will go elsewhere.
I order my supplies from Amazon. I have prime, so my deliveries are all paid for. I buy precious Cat Ultra premium Clumping Litter 40 lbs. $15.19 and Arm and Hammoer Cat Litter Deodorizer 30 oz. @$3.75. I also use the Self Cleaning Litter Box by Omega Paw.
No scooping with that. Use the pellet bags for the used cat litter.

 

Wow, I have 2 cats and someone is trying to get me another 8 week old. Resisting it so far........luckily I havnt seen the little guy so its easier to say no. For now.

 

Last night's overnight maintenance was to replace AC, DC caps and fans in this GE 40kVA UPS....my maintenance widow was 1:30-5:00, didn't finish up until 7:30 What a PAIN-IN-THE-azz the get to the caps on this thing

 

two is a good number of cats. More cats, more work, and more money. But it is whatever works for you. My cats are all loveable and gentle. Not scratching. They don't damage my furniture because I set a lot of those scratch poles around. They go to them first. I don't know why, but my cats won't touch people food. If these last three hadn't been born here, I wouldn't have so many. We got attached. I had sworn off cats until a desperate scabby emaciated female cat wondered into my yard. I couldn't take her to the shelter because I was sure they would euthanize her. But the time I got her healthy, we got attached to her. She passed on, but not before we bought two Himalayan kittens. We took in another Himalayan rescue, then the first two had three kittens. All blue points. Hard to tell them apart.

 

Took a tour of the maine wood pellet plant today. Very interesting and informative. Met richard and scot linkletter and got some samples of their not so new softie to test out. Learned a lot. Thanks to everyone at mwp. I'd have more to say but the tiny keyboard on my phone makes it difficult.

 

Very cool Larry. Good for you on saving an animal in need. I would have done the same thing.

The scratching posts do work. I have several around the house and they leave the furniture alone. One of mine started on a corner of the couch and I used a trick told to me years ago. Line the area with tin foil for a while-they hate that feeling. After several days or a week take it off and generally your done because they have found the scratching posts. Maybe a 2nd treatment will be needed.

Also a water bottle with a good strong spray stream gets their attention to not do something. A little training and neither of these will be needed after too long.

 

Yeah using the Lint Eater and a drill I can easily get it through a 90 deg about 2 feet in from the outside with 3" ICC piping. No drill it it isnt going through.

 

Dpopps. You need a brush with a ball on the end to get it to go up all the way. Forget the bbs go online. Been there done that

 

I have two, then there is the story about the Concord SPCA gaining 40 animals in one day - mostly cats/kittens. Makes me want to run over and get another one

 

Thanks for the info!

 

Me too.

 

Were you using a drill? If not, make sure and use it only in the forward (clockwise) rotation or you can unscrew the rods

 

Waaaay Cool!
