Andrew was writing a book about how to live with crazy humans. He died before he could finish it. When Rita came on the scene, she decided to finish the book and really tell humans what is wrong with them.

This is a book of true stories about birds and animals that my family and I have fostered or adopted over the years. We enjoyed these tempporary, and sometimes permanent, members of our family. All of the birds and animals had distinct personallities. Some were bossy and some were very easy to have as companions. A lot like people. We learned that there is a "something" that runs all through living beings, be they human, animal or fowl.We have been the foster parets, or adoptive parents, to blue jays, cardinals, piegeons, African gray geese, ducks, a Guinea pig, swamp rabbits, a mockingbird, gray foxes and assorted other birds and animals that have hopped, flown and walked through our life, including a cat that hunted with predator tapes.

Despite their promise of a complete and balanced meal, most commercial pet foods are chock-full of dangerous by-products, indigestible fillers, and chemical preservatives. It's no wonder that owners spends thousands of dollars every year treating their pets' digestive disorders, tumors, joint and back problems, skin irritations, allergies, and heart, liver, and kidney disease. In THE WHOLE PET DIET, Andi Brown combines simple home cooking with natural supplements, dedicated playtime, exercise, and good old-fashioned pampering to help regulate pets' weight and tap into their natural healing powers.

This Book is based on the many experiences of which I was exposed to while living at my last Home during the dawn of the new millennium.

I have also included Poems of the following additional styles::: Ryhme, Name, Hiaku, and my own flavors. Many Poems draw you into an experience via many senses. One can almost see the big picture at the end of each Poem

It seems obvious that animals have emotions. Dogs bark with excitement when their masters return home, snarl aggressively at the approach of a stranger, and cower with anxiety at the vet's office. Our ordinary ways of talking about animals suggest that animals and humans are emotional kin.
In this exploration of our emotional kinship with animals, philosopher B. A. Dixon invites the reader to consider what is philosophically controversial about the idea that animals have emotions. Dixon guides the reader through a tangle of philosophical issues related to the concept of emotion and the various ways in which emotions are morally significant. She demonstrates that claims about animal emotion often stand in for a more fundamental property it is believed that animals and humans share--namely morality.
Do some animals have "morally laden" emotions? Dixon examines various arguments in favor of this idea and finds them lacking. Her close analysis elucidates the concept of emotional kinship, the role of emotions as virtues, Darwin's principle about evolutionary continuity, the nature of primate empathy, the possibility of morally appraising children and animals, and how the animal narrative should be used as a methodology for thinking about the animal mind. Each chapter begins with an animal story or anecdote to illustrate the theme to be covered.
Dixon concludes that we are unwarranted in attributing to animals morally laden emotions.

The society in which we were now to take our place is a unique one, an ever-changing kaleidoscope of dogs and their owners. The dogs represent most of the popular breeds and many of the mutt-like mixtures - and so do their accompanying humans, who come from diverse nationalities and from many walks of life: professionals and job seekers, young and old, family members and loners. They are united in their love of dogs, and on the central green of the park, on its walkways and at the cafe where they gather after exercising their animals, they often let this affection for dogs carry them into friendships that transcend park life and involve many of them in additional social activities.

Elinor De Wire has been writing about lighthouses and their keepers since 1972. During that time she found that hundreds of lighthouse animals wandered into her research notes and photo collection. This book is the story of all these cold-nosed, whiskered, wooly, hoofed, horned, slithery, buzzing, feathered, and finned keepers of the lights. Where else would a dog learn to ring a fogbell; a cat go swimming and catch a fish for its supper; or a parrot cuss the storm winds rattling its cage? Who other than a lightkeeper would swim a cow home, tame a baby seal, adopt an orphan alligator, send messages via carrier pigeons, or imagine mermaids coming to visit? The Lightkeepers' Menagerie gathers together animal stories from lighthouses all around the world, tales of happiness and sadness, courage and cowardice, tragedy and comedy, even absurdity. Sometimes, fur, feathers, and fins tell the best tales.

From the winner of the Forbes FYI Treasure Hunt comes a humorous look at living with a revolving door of roommates following the demise of his short training marriage. Roommates that were initially tolerated only because they were needed to help care for his Golden Retriever Sandy but inevitably became memorable characters that enriched his life as well as their own. Sandy was always at his side throughout this entire time, providing the stability and love that was needed, as they went through roommate after roommate together. Some of these roommates eventually became good friends and some did not, but all of them were unique and interesting in their own special way. Revolving Doors is full of funny, colorful and complicated stories based on these evolving characters as they gradually matured to meet their full potential in life. Many readers in the baby boomers generation will be able to relate to these roommate experiences from their own past relationships before growing up and settling down. Phrases such as You just can't make this stuff up and truth is more unbelievable than fiction will undoubtedly resonate with readers as they associate themselves with one or more of these endearing characters. The author also incorporates numerous other characters and events from his summers in a group beach house at Dewey Beach, DE spent with others who also were looking to escape from the realities of life. In addition, the author chronicles the adventures which led to the discovery of a buried case of 1982 Chateau Latour in the Forbes FYI treasure hunt contest of 1998, leading to his own fifteen minutes of fame celebrating the victory with the Forbes staff in their New York City corporate headquarters wine cellar.
