Pooties and Woozles for Sunday, August 30th.
Today's Topic: Things a happy, healthy animal needs.
Welcome to the Pootie-Woozle diary. This diary is a politics free zone, meant for relaxing and unwinding for a few minutes, before going back to the serious stuff.
Feel free to add your own photos and comments. Pet care and concern comments are always allowed, of course, but otherwise, please keep it lighthearted and friendly. Enjoy the pooties and woozles and all kinds of other animal friends, with many LOLs and quotes.
The purity of a person's heart can be quickly measured by how they regard animals. Anonymous
If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans. James Herriot

TEETH CARE
Wikipedia link to information on animal teeth, by animal.
http://en.wikipedia.org/...
Excerpt: Dogs - In dogs, the teeth are less likely than humans to form dental cavities because of the very high pH of dog saliva, which prevents enamel from demineralizing.
http://pawsonline.info/... Feline teeth
Excerpt: An adult cat has thirty teeth, consisting of: four canines, twelve incisors, ten premolars and four molars.

Interesting and informative site about animals. The link goes directly to their Dental page
FOOD
I have noticed that what cats most appreciate in a human being is not the ability to produce food, which they take for granted - but his or her entertainment value. Geoffrey Household
CARE and CLEANLINESS
Horse Care Quote:
Give me food and drink; and care for me. And when the day's work is done, shelter me. Give me a clean bed and leave me not too small a place in the stable. Talk to me, for your voice often takes the place of reins. Be good to me and I shall serve you more gladly and love you. Author Unknown
A SPOT TO CALL THEIR OWN
Only animals were not expelled from Paradise. Milan Kundera
Prepare your house for your puppy's arrival. A special place should be designated for it to eat, sleep, and eliminate.

EXERCISE/PLAY
When I play with my cat, who knows whether she is not amusing herself with me more than I with her. Montaigne
NAPS
All of the animals except for man know that the principle business of life is to enjoy it. Samuel Butler
LOVE AND AFFECTION
Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened. Anatole France
