Just a reminder for your pets

This summer is shaping up to start to be a warm one here in Chicago, IL. In an attempt to save money in my household, we aren’t using the AC as much. One important thing to remember when you have pets and you are doing something like this, most of the warm blooded pets have fur. Putting Ice in their water dish is a great way for them to cool off. Which is easy if you have a dog or a cat. Not so much if you have a bunny who drinks out of a bottle. Thankfully,  my mother has ice cube trays that are long narrow shapes, for putting in bottles. Some parts were a little thick, I just ran some cold water over them when they got stuck, and now I have a very happy bunny.

Cleaning Your Sponge/Dish Towel

One great way to prolong your dishtowels and Sponges is to microwave them between uses. It kills off the mold and other bacteria that grow on them. Simply wet, and put in your microwave for 2 minutes.
