When I was 14, I was asked what I would want as my epitaph. The best I could come up with, after a few minutes of serious thought, was "It seemed like a good idea at the time." Twenty years later, that's still the best I can explain about why I do anything.
She dove right in to a pan of beet pulp from the new bag. :headdesk: Lesson learned, yet again: if the not usually picky horse gets picky, don't assume it's the horse's fault.
Kind of odd. The day before you found the "offending article" in your beet pulp, I had talked to Juanita about how we could use pellet stove pellets or beet pulp pellets as cat litter. I figured it would smell better.
We've used wood pellets for cat litter (and pellets made of recycled paper "Yesterdays News") Wonderful, if your cat will use them. Less odor and you don't get that litter dust tracked everywhere.
Oh shit (pun intended)...I had that happen when the colts first got sick. Forgot to put the lid back on the BP tub after morning feeding. Colts wouldn't eat their afternoon feeding. Thought...OMG...They are off feed...Call the vet ASAP.
Nope...Found the turds in the next feeding. Damn cats!! LOL
Cats can be so gross...sometimes I wonder why I bother to keep them around! Between the hairballs, the eviscerated critters around the house and shitting/pissing in random places, they are lucky they are still allowed to live.
*chuckle* It's NEVER horses fault - it's always something (one) else.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear she's back to eating the beet pulp... I've learned a lot of lessons from Lilly the hard way too. LOL

ReplyDeleteOnly I figured on throwing it out afterwards.
"Say... this beet pulp tastes like $#!T."

That's right, its the cat's fault. lol
ReplyDeleteDixie forgives you... ;)
ReplyDeletePine horse bedding pellets makes excellent cat litter, and cost about a third of the "Feline Pine" brand.
Glad that Dixie ate the beet pulp... I'm still chuckling over the cat using it like a litterbox. Darn cats! ;-)

ReplyDeleteCFS, GREAT tip on the kitty litter! I might have to start using that!
ReplyDeleteAnd I KNEW there was a reason I keep all my feed in metal trash cans. It's not just to keep the rodents out, you know!
Dixie Knows Best.
