Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2005I won!
My lovebird's vet started up a web site (don't ask me the URL, I haven't a clue!) I got email from the vet saying they were giving away prizes for testimonials. Well heck, since he's the only avian vet in the area and Persia's vet recommended him... I wrote some nice remarks. I like the way he handles Peaches. And he gave me samples of different foods and treats for her to try and when I board her they give her slices of apples and fresh greens just like I do at home. So I emailed my testimonial. He (personally) called me yesterday. I won a $10 gift certificate to Best Buy. Hmmmm, could have been to PetCo, but what the heck. I *never* win anything so I'm tickled pink.

Congrats, Jill! Let us know how the samples are. >> My lovebird's vet started up a web site (don't ask me the URL, I >> haven't a clue!)

Let us know how the samples are. You have birds? He gave me some Avi Cakes and some Nutri-berries. And a tiny pouch of Harrison's pellets. Peaches loves them, but the Harrison's is a tad too expensive so I just get her a pellet mix and make sure she has plenty of fresh fruit, carrots and green leafy veggies like kale. You should see this bird go after fruit, greens and carrot sticks :) She's a sweet little parrot. And no, Persia does not bother her. In fact, I often find Persia meatloafing next to the cage. But no, I don't let the bird out of the cage when Persia is around... I'm not *that* stupid!

Helps that Felix is middle-aged and lazy :-). DH reports an interesting event a few days ago. Seems the bird was out and around and landed on the arm of the sofa. The same soft arm on which Felix was meatloafing. He just turned, sniffed her, rubbed his head against her, and settled back down, and the bird stayed with him for several minutes (he got a picture).

I have only ever won one thing. It was in a raffle and it was the cake I'd made myself and donated. Heh. Tweed >> I *never* win anything so I'm tickled pink. > > Well done, Jill.

Heh. > > Tweed The LunaChix are a charity organization, sponsored by Clif Bar, that promotes breast cancer awareness and also organizes free women's mountain biking clinics. At the end of the five-clinic series there was a raffle, and I bought 15 one-dollar tickets. ... I won the grand prize, a women's-specific down sleeping bag worth several hundred dollars. I was jumping all over the place and really excited ... until I brought it home. "Is it down?" asked DH. With a sinking heart, I remembered that he's extremely allergic to feathers. Can't even sleep in the same room with them. I ended up giving away the bag to a pro female mountain biker who lives near us. She and her husband have helped both DH and me on several occasions, and I knew she could use the bag for the many times when she had to sleep in her vehicle overnight at a race. So I guess it's all good. But I'm still kinda sad =/ Signaturemonique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca |
