The Beagle is a breed of small to medium-sized dog. A member of the Hound Group, it is similar in appearance to the Foxhound but smaller, with shorter legs and longer, softer ears. Beagles are scent hounds, developed primarily for tracking hare, rabbit, and other game. They have a keen sense of smell and tracking instinct that sees them employed as detection dogs for prohibited agricultural imports and foodstuffs in quarantine around the world. Beagles are intelligent, and are popular as pets because of their size, even temper, and lack of inherited health problems.
These characteristics also make them the dog of choice for animal testing.

Father Yod
Thank him for all the organic, vegetarian healthy restaurants you guys have in L.A. I'm seriously jealous of your endless vegan food choices out there. He also was the leader of one of the sickest bands in history.

Healthy life
If you are a vegetarian or vegan, don't forget about calcium, vitamin B12, omega 3s, iodine, and vitamin D. Paying special attention to these, eating a varied diet (with many raw foods), and exercise will allow you to live a long, healthy, and compassionate life.

Kitty weed
I have cats on the brain. If you are interested in the lengths I am now going in order to save my kitty from death from diabetes and need some motivation to get your kitties off kibble junk food, check out Morax's diabetes spreadsheet: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=t7p0GxonEx5pk-tatz11KAg#gid=0. I've been a head case since I started home testing and I have no idea what is going on. Also, he got diabetes from a steroid shot so please don't give your animals steroids unless it is absolutely necessary. You probably wont understand it but each number requires me to poke him in the ear and make him bleed and the cells in black, well you can guess what that means. I'm aiming for blue numbers. I am hoping to get him on the right track soon. Send him some good vibes for me.

healthy kitties
So I've been doing a lot of research about the proper feeding of our kitty friends and it turns out that most cat foods are complete crap. So if you want to have a healthy kitty and one that doesn't need two insulin shots a day like mine, you may want to feed your kitties a grain-free diet that is as close to the real thing they eat in the wild as possible. Unlike dogs, they are obligate carnivores so sadly part of owning a cat usually involves feeding them meat. Well, of course there are many cats that do just fine on vegetarian diets but I don't feel good about doing this especially because of my little diabetic kitty Morax:
High on catnip!
Oh yeah,so not only do I have to give two shots a day, I also just started testing his glucose levels which involves stabbing him in the ear and testing his blood. I'm lucky to have such a sweetheart that tolerates all this stuff but it has been a long road to understanding this disease and how to control his high glucose levels. Poor baby! So, it's worth it to feed your cats the good stuff without the grain and mostly if not all wet food that is as pure as possible. I may even start raising chickens again to feed to him. I don't know, I don't feel that good about it but I would rather raise them myself then not know where the meat is coming from and how the chickens were raised. And many people who feed their cats holistically grind meat, bones and all, and feed that to their kitties, which is probably cheaper than buying all this expensive wet food and I would know that gross stuff isn't in it, like dog, horse and cat meat. Yuck! And all the pet food recalls....it's disgusting! So, I'm going to think about it and see.
This food table tells you the nutritional information of different types of cat foods:
I would like to make my cats vegetarian but I just don't think it is going to work. Oh well, they are killers at heart and I adore my kitties and want the best for them. So today I am starting to replace their dry food with the Blue Buffalo Wilderness cat food and keep supplementing with pure meat wet food:
Sorry for the cat food obsessed post! haha
