First you have to find a place that sells them. They seem to be more
common on television than in real life.

When I was a teen in west Tennessee, my father had a large garden. The
neighbors used to cringe when they saw him approaching their doors with
bags of produce. Please, we don't want any more cucumbers and tomatoes!
Enough zucchini! He didn't plant corn.

I would never turn down garden tomatoes. I miss my garden and
especially the month long glut of good tomatoes.

BTW - Good morning, Jill. You were up and posting early this morning.


Also...I think Carol might have confused Sheba cat food with another
when she said that here it's only sold in pet stores. Here, same town
as her, it's sold in grocery stores, CVS, Walmart, Target and probably
that Dollar General store too.

Dad tended to over-plant. It wasn't even a huge garden, but he always
had a glut of cukes, tomatoes and squash.

I don't have to worry about good tomatoes. There are fields of them
just down the road from where I live.

Good morning, Gary. Sometimes I can't sleep so I get up and read the ng
and post. I can always go back to bed if I don't have to do something
else.

I am aware of that. I'll just have to drive farther to purchase Sheba.
I just feed her what she likes.

When I adopted Buffy the caretaker couldn't even tell me what she liked
to eat. Some sort of dry food and maybe Friskies canned food. I was
flying blind since my previous cat, Persia, required prescription food
nearly all of her life.

Buffy, so far, has no ailments or illnesses and doesn't require
expensive prescription food. She's doing just fine and is very healthy
with the store brands.

I never plant zucchini. I am more fond of yellow neck squash, but I do
not even bother with that. To much of a muchness.

But no one is scared of being given home grown tomatoes - at least up
here in NJ.

Yeah. If your pet is doing good on whatever you feed it, that's good.
I've noticed too that even some of the more expensive pet foods sold
at pet stores are not all that. Everyone needs to read the ingredient
list on any food.

Cats, ferrets, dogs are all carnivores and need a high protein content
in their food. The fillers should be way down on the list. If there is
poo in the mix... well I don't know about that.

Funny, just yesterday I sent Ron over to the neighbor's with a
bag of tomatoes and cucumbers. It's just once a year, they seem
to appreciate it. Hey, Italians turning down tomatoes? Unheard
of. They have sunny yard envy, no vegetable growing for them.

I tried to grow zucchini once even though I'm not a big squash
fan. I managed to grow a lot of large leaves, no bounty of
zukes to foist on the neighbors. Oh, well. Never grew corn.

I did have grilled zucchini for dinner last night, to go with the
grilled Garlic O'Grady's (sausage) and cucumber/tomato salad.

I guess not all Italians are into making gallons and gallons of tomato
sauce. Most of the Italians I know just buy it.

Corn is easier to buy. I never had the knack for it and must of mine

Zucchins seem to appear overnight. The plants sit for a long time. One
day they blossom and a day or two later you have small zucchinis. Come
back later that day and get them at harvest size because they next day
they will be like balloons.

Getting on TV seems to be the only reason to make such a thing.

Having a big pot of sauce on the stove on Sundays is a pretty
common thing here, certainly in my house.

It seems kind of high maintenance like that, but what do I know.
I do know I'm not going to grow a whole lot of it, so why bother,
the farms around here grow nice corn.

I decided they must be like cucumbers in that regard, and I certainly
have the cukes piled all over to prove it. Difference is, I love
cukes and I'm take it or leave it with zukes.

I live in a rural area with lots of fresh produce stands. My wife
rarely eats corn. It is much easier and cheaper for me to stop at a
stand and buy a single fresh cob than to grow it. Plus, their corn is
much better than any I grew... that smutty mutant thing and all.

They are ok once in a while. It you have space in the garden it can't
hurt to grow one or two plants and have a couple meals with the crop,
but I tire of zucchini very quickly.

My favourite recipe for it is one my wife does. She slices a zucchini
and blanches the slices before frying them in a pan with a bit of olive
oil. Fry just long enough to get some colour and then flip them over and
sprinkle some freshly grated Parmesan on them.

Every store here that sells pet food sells Sheba, even convenience
stores... it's right alongside the Fancy Feast.

I need to inform you that dogs are NOT carnivores... I don't know
about ferrets but felines are true carnivores. Wikkipedia says:
Ferrets are obligate carnivores.[16] The natural diet of their wild
ancestors consisted of whole small prey—i.e., meat, organs, bones,
skin, feathers, and fur.[17] Ferrets have short digestive systems and
quick metabolism, so they need to eat frequently. Prepared dry foods
consisting almost entirely of meat (including *high-grade cat food*,
although specialized ferret food is increasingly available and
preferable)[18] provide the most nutritional value and are the most
convenient,[19] though some ferret owners feed pre-killed or live prey
(such as mice and rabbits) to their ferrets to more closely mimic
their natural diet.[20][21] Ferret digestive tracts lack a cecum and
the animal is largely unable to digest plant matter.[22] Before much
was known about ferret physiology, many breeders and pet stores
recommended food like fruit in the ferret diet, but it is now known
that such foods are inappropriate, and may in fact have negative
ramifications on ferret health. Ferrets imprint on their food at
around six months old. This can make introducing new foods to an older
ferret a challenge, and even simply changing brands of kibble may meet
with resistance from a ferret that has never eaten the food as a kit.
It is therefore advisable to expose young ferrets to as many different
types and flavors of appropriate food as possible.[23]

I love sliced cucumber on buttered bread with some coarse salt and
freshly ground pepper. I look forward to it all year.

From what I've read, dogs are basically carnivores but have adapted to
be more like omnivores now.

Forgetting dogs, for now...ferret are definitely carnivores like cats.
The both need a high protein diet....40% is optimal.

Your ferret report is spot on, Sheldon. I would grade your paper an A+
except it's obvious that you only copied all that. For that reason,
I'll give you an A-. heheh

Ferrets DO imprint their food and this is why I always buy a mix of 3
different kinds. If one formula is changed, the ferret still has 2
other tastes that it's used to and will not refuse the new food. You
can slowly get them to eat new things.

I've always offered every food to my ferrets. Most only liked their
ferret food, just like Mia does now. Whenever I eat though, they are
always curious as to what I'm eating. I always let them check it out
and taste anything that sounds appealing. Do I worry about ferret
germs in my food? Not at all.

Raisins are a ferret favorite but you have to soften them first and
cut up very small. Potato chips seem to be a favorite too. I think
it's just the salt on those. Jackie used to love mayo and would lick
it up until I finally stopped her. These things are just occasional
treats though, never given often.

Most of the Dataw residents are probably rather well-heeled and like to be seen at Le Clubhouse. Gotta meet that annual minimum too,doncha know.
