If there were proof of a deity, then we would be forced to accept that God doesn&#039;t help us, really, until the afterlife. If not, then how could a loving God allow for so much pain? And, I&#039;m not just talking about pain, I&#039;m talking about...

Are they used as a filler to hold costs down or did they forget they are carnivores?<br /><br />OK. Tough question and many, many opinions on the &#039;correct&#039; answer. In nature, cats are primarily carnivores and do not eat grains, veggies, or fruits. However, the overlooked fact is that the house cat&#039;s life rarely mimics the diet of the true design of the feline. A...

I plan on holding off on opening them up in case they call. Can they trace these PC's thru internet access as stolen?<br /><br />In all honesty, it is unlikely they will be able to discover exactly &#039;who&#039; they incorrectly shipped the computers to. &#039;Someone&#039; was supposed to receive those 4 laptops and it will be &#039;their&#039; burden to prove to Amazon that they only received one.

She sleeps a lot, mopes around and whines. Is this normal adjustment to a new home? She also just had her rabies vacc, so could that be making her lethargic?<br /><br />Did you get the rabies vaccine from a vet or from the shelter? If the dog hasn&#039;t been to a vet for a complete check-up, that is the first thing that you should do. Animals adopted from shelters are usually not checked out. It is possible the dog is ill.

My wife and I pretty much spend as we wish, at each person&#039;s discretion, within reason of course. Only on large ticket items do we usually discuss the purchase with each other.

Incredible! The place is huge and you can spend days there, trying to see it all. My personal favorite part was the &#039;impressionist&#039; wing.

He seems very unhappy, every time I pick him up or play with him he hisses at me. He has never hissed at me before in the 5 years I've at him. He is eating normally, but using the bathroom less. Should I be worried?<br /><br />Very. It&#039;s quite possible your cat is suffering from a urinary tract blockage. They are very common in male cats and they can be fatal if not treated quickly.
