Purrfect Holiday Decorating for Pets

Crackling fires, snowflakes, colorful lights, and the anticipation of Christmas is all around.  As the excitement of the holiday draws near, and pets young and old await the arrival of Santa Paws, here’s some decorating ideas to help get your pet involved in the holiday spirit.

The Treat Tree: Mix homemade dog biscuits into your tree decor.  There are some great recipes online.  Place a hole into the unbaked cookie with a straw, bake, and set to cool.  Place ribbon through the biscuit to hang on the tree. 

To make these treats interactive, attach a small label to each ribbon that lists a trick or behavior you would like your pup to perfect. Each day you can pull a treat, or allow your pup to pick, and have him complete the task before receiving the treat.

For cats, simply use a soft treat and add ornament hooks. Many cat owners express a problem keeping their cat out of their tree, if your kitty likes to use your tree as a hiding place, the treat tree may not be a good option; consider a pet tree without edibles or create a second tree as the treat tree to act as a decoy for your cat. 

The Pet Tree: In addition to homemade treats, add candy cane rawhide, embellished pet ribbon, small picture frames with your pet’s photo, and pet related ornaments to your tree.  Finish it off with a small picket fence to keep create a barrier for your pet for the ultimate pet themed Christmas tree.

The Treat Wreath: Make a wreath out of dog treats.  Purchase a Styrofoam wreath form at your local craft store.  Simply make additional dog biscuits or purchase Milkbones at the grocery store.  Hot glue each bone to your wreath form until the entire wreath form is covered, layering and overlapping bones.  Add dog embellished ribbon and your wreath is ready to great your guests at the front door or anywhere in the home.

For cats, substitute Milkbones with small cat toys.

A Mantle to Bark About: In addition to stockings and traditional holiday décor, include your pet by adding black and white photography of your pet in a silver or gold frame.  Take a photo of your pet dressed in the holiday spirit or simply in front of your Christmas tree.  You can easily alter this photo to black and white using your computer or take it to your photo center.  Print your photos to the size of the frame and add to your holiday mantle collection.  You can also search for pet related holiday accessories at your local HomeGoods store.  Don’t forget to add a stocking for your pet.  Petco offers some great stocking stuffers.

Incorporating your pet into the décor can be fun for the whole family, whether you go all out in a pet themed holiday décor or simply include your pet by adding a few pet friendly embellishments.  It’s the purrfect holiday reward for your perfect pet.

Question about my amazing/weird skin electrical conductance?

I get electrically shocked all the time.
It is a serious thing... Let me explain.
Sometimes, I even get shocked when I touch an ["inert"] piece of metal, some parts of a computer (mouse, tower,etc..), when I open a door, when I turn on the TV, or just by touching a 1.5V battery! I got shocked a couple of times a few years ago by just touching WOOD !! Amazing, right ? Painful too !
That's not all.
I got burned once by a spark (produced by electrons) created one day when I took off my sweater very quickly (and I got really short hair)! Also, every time I wear or take off my sweater, I hear that scary crackling noise for a few seconds.
Oh, and my hair sticks to the interior of the sweater. In my case, let's just say the electrostatic force is as strong as glue !

If somebody has any idea of what kind of weird disease I may have, please let me know ASAP !! I'm sick and tired of getting electrically shocked all the time.

I.Q.

As a person that has the same problem, I can empathize with you. The build up of any static electrical charge takes place best on things that are by nature poor conductor. If it were a good conductor you would lose the charge readily. Skin is not a very good conductor by nature and if it is very dry skin it is even better. Wet and salty skin is a good conductor of electricity since the mixture of salt and water makes a good electrolyte.
During the low humidity days of winter when those poor conductors you wear on your feet come in contact with the rug on your floor. The electrostatic potential difference is built up on your body surface. This potential difference is not a small one it can be a voltage in the thousands. This means it can discharge on to almost anything that has a low charge. Contrary to what people think it isn't your feet rubbing the carpet, all that is necessary is the your feet come in contact with a lot of carpet.
So what it adds up to, is that if you have dry skin and you walk around in your room on a dry (low humidity) day you will build up some wicked charges. The easiest thing to do to reduce this phenomena is to install a good humidifier that would keep the humidity around 50% in your house. This will increase the ability of early discharge which will prevent those very large voltage build ups on your body.

Carbon is one of our favorite elements. It makes diamonds, it makes all known life possible, and it makes pencils (and who doesn't love pencils?) Also, it seems that carbon fullerenes (buckeyballs, nanotubes, etc) are going to do a lot in our future. Time to bring a little of that microcarbon goodness into your home and make it work for you now. "Wire Glue" Conductive Glue uses microcarbon technology to make a glue that also conducts electricity. That's right - no need for solder anymore; now you have Wire Glue!

Put simply, it sticks bits together and allows electricity to flow between them. Wire Glue is great for repairing wires, gluing together electronic kits, and really, is a great safe (i.e. no heat) way of introducing children to electrical engineering. Get some now, and get in on the microcarbon revolution early. "Wire Glue" Conductive Glue Using the latest advances in microcarbon technology, this glue actually conducts electricity. Lead free.
