    Poo Question

    just remembered vet sait it would be ok to occaisionally add some immodium (regular not the bung you up for a month stuff) to a meal if things were really bad
  3. will add you back into rescue group
  4. will be a bit like the lottery draw... this week the bowl is..... the stainless steel one and the dog is.... Ellie in previous draws ellie has drawn ....
  5. thas cos you are in the rescues group you are green already nominations will be lobbed into a food bowl and one of the dogs will pull a bit of paper out. unless a particular rescues is obviously having a really crappy time of it. the rescue will have to have a paypal or nochex account though.
  6. tbh i dont use paypal except to pay for things so i dont really know at the end of feb we can tally up how much has been donated and then sarah can compare that to the amount actually recieved. this should give an idea of the fees and exchange rate gubbins. then can review the packages. looks like its about 23p per donation
  7. k there are now options for £5 and £10 just to let you know that oince the month is up there may be some interesting bits depending on what happens once the subscription ends. It should just move you back to the members group but as i have been unable to test this yet if there are any problems I wil have to address them then. In testing the test account reverted to its former group but testing is one thing.. doing it for real is someting else. So if thing do go a bit squiffy in a month bear with me. there also seems to be an issue with the exchange rates... so just leave it at GBP
  8. currently the only way is to have seperate packages for diff amounts so i will be setting up a £5 and a £10 one later on tonight
  9. on the paypal screen it should allow you to change the amount to a higher one. if it doesnt could you let me know. ta ooh it doesnt does it? will see how that can be gotten round
  10. we have put in place a way of allowing you to help a rescue out. Each month a rescue will be chosen to be the recipient of this scheme. What happens is this. from your "My Controls" bit you have an option to do something called paid subscriptions. Normally this is used to raise funds for the board or to manage subscriptions to customer areas etc. However providing a rescue has a paypal or nochex account it is possible to have this gateway point to that rescues account. Currently you will need either a paypal account or a credit\debit card. There is no way at the moment for any other methods - sorry, if you wish to donate you will need to contact the rescue directly. The donation is for a pound, five pounds or a tenner and you then become a "rescue supporter". In return you get: Your name in a differant colour (currently blue) more PM Space A nice warm glow There are no special forums that this gets you access to. The subscription lasts for 1 month from the date you make your donation then you revert to being a normal member. Its kind of fitting that the first organisation is Wiccaways given the post by Sarah. you can access the subscription bit either through your "my controls" or by clicking on the link below. At the end of the period I will post how much was raised for the rescue. here is the link. Link to payment gateway The payments btw are handled by paypal and the refuge cannot see anything to do with them other than the fact that you have made a payment (we dont know your card details etc) Pingu IMPORTANT if you are in the rescue group or a moderator you MUST use the first option (for mods and rescues) otherwise you will lose membership of your respective group. If you choose the second one by mistake PM me and I will move you back to the appropriate group

    Poo Question

    sounds like the joys we had when misty first arrived which was colitus
  12. blown away by the simplicity and yet highly complex structure then? or still trying to make a haiku out of it? (i gave up bw)
  13. The forums features Aka wot can I do now I am ‘ere? This is an interim guide until I do a full one Forums Well first of all you can post threads. If you are reading this then I am assuming that you have a grasp of what is involved so will move swiftly onto the next bit. Gallery The forum has a gallery feature where you can post pictures and view other peoples pictures. If you go into “my controls” ( http://www.rykat.org/forums/index.php?act=UserCP&CODE=00 ) you will see an option for creating your own gallery. The pictures cannot be viewed outside of the forum and if you try to link to them on another forum it wont work. This is to help save bandwidth. You can rate pictures and discuss them. Blog This is a form on online diary. Ramble away or view other peoples musings Live Chat A chat room. My Controls Load of bits to play with here. For now take a look at the online help feature for more details here http://www.rykat.org/forums/index.php?act=Help
  14. i was going to make it into a haiku but couldnt find the motivation personally i feel its a highly underrated modern classical minimalist piece of poetry. simple in its construction and yet conveys the dark depths of angst felt by a lot of todays yoof...
  15. move over wilfred owen... :lol:
  16. 36 views and only a few replies.. i am wondering how many are still clicking....
  17. I once played this over a warehouse tannoy system ... "Uh ... attention! attention! we're looking for the chick with big boobs." "Yeah, yeah ... we are ready to do you now." Beavis and Butthead

    smelly ears?

    if there is a reddy waxy build up then it can be caused by ear mites or, and dont get frightened by this as its not that common, a growth or other obstruction inthe ear canal. dogs ear canals have a bend in them and if there is an obstruction then the airflow to the ear is restricted. this means stuff builds up and infection sets in. thus the smelly stuff. i would ask your vet to take another look and to look for any narrowing of the ear canal which could be causing the problem. This is what happened to Dino and despite regular cleaning with LEO it got to the point where he needed a total ear canal ablation. Dinos case was severe though and even so it was treatable. or it could just be you have a stinky dog
  19. when he advertised for an assistant he placed an ad in one of the vets magazines "submit CV and best joke to..." hes a good vet
  20. Rob McNulty of Hoylake Vetenary on the Wirral We have used Rob for years and he is a very popular local vet. he is great with the dogs and keeps a stash of biscuits handy. He is the only vet who Dino will let examine him... He is also meant to be very good with horses
