Here is a helpful tip on feeding stations for your feline friends. The station should be situated in a low-profile area that’s mixed in with the immediate surroundings so your cat-companions can feel safe eating there. Ideally, you should feed them once a day and at the same time. To keep ants from trespassing your food area, create a “moat” by filling a 23 x 33-centimeter (9 x 13-inch) baking pan with 2.5 centimeters (an inch) or so of water and then set the food bowl inside it. Be sure to add fresh water each day and make sure the water bowls don’t get moldy. Keep the station clean as uncleanliness poses a health risk for your feline companions and attracts insects and wildlife.
Your day will go more smoothly with some chuckles, so let’s check out the following joke. It’s entitled “Smart Politics.”
A new reporter asked a veteran congressman:
“As a seasoned politician, what have you learned from the rough-and-tumble political arena?”
“Well, I’ve found that it’s not so much whether you win or lose, but how you place the blame.”
?!
