Better at going outside, or better at using the toilet inside?

Both! I no longer have a "doormat " of yellow snow... they aim to the sides..

And

Their bathroom is actually walk-in-able and no longer smells of pee.

'Al's' place - home of the yellow iced snow.

True! But I no longer have to walk through it!

I saw this on my FB feed. My mind went to adapting this to my chickens, so I could safely let them free range. It's called a Coyote Vest, and protects from a lot more than coyote attacks.

Important life lessons from bachelor SCG:

Do not try to make rice pilaf in the microwave for 25 minutes while you do the outdoor chores.

No yellow iced snow around here- unless someone's dog ventures over. So far it hasn't happened this winter.

Never leave a micro wave or Kitchen aid mixer kneading bread un attended

Wish I could afford one of those vests for me - haven't seen coyotes around in years. But see hawks daily.

Reminds me of the time my father was microwaving his Banquet tv dinner. He wandered away but, before doing so he must have pressed the buttons to hard and probably jumped to hour(s) instead of minutes.

After a while the house was smokey and the stench was fierce. None of the smoke alarms went off.

The dinner was totally dehydrated - the tv tray was fused to the turn table. Somehow he got the gunk off and cleaned up the turn table. Microwave (Panasonic) was bought in July'96 and still working.

Bad thing about the protective doggy vests is, the owner and other folks, kids are subject to great injury IF the dog is very friendly(or mean) and wants to engage them.

Would you want that dog jumping up against someone or trying to get in their lap?

Plus the vibrant color might attract bees, wasps, whatever that will be really ticked off when they can't find flowers.

Ok if I hold down the part in the picture it doesn't leak sound.
Bf replaced that gasket and it is still leaking so I need to buy the whole thing?

Sorry I'm no help working on the inside stuff. But am great at serious clogs.
