    Earlier I took Carli dog to Pet Supplies Plus for some new toys for her and Angel cat.

    While there I came across this level 4 Nina Ottosson interactive game. That's a product photo. There are 24 hidden compartments. A dog has to slide the blue tiles to find a treat.

    View attachment 986883

    The lady at the store told me I should start my dog at one of the level 1 games not level 4. I laughed and told her you do not know my dog. She said she never heard of any dog starting a Nina Ottosson interactive toy at level 4. I said "perfect, I'll take the level 4 then".

    We get home and I place a tiny piece of a treat in one of the outside compartments and place it on the floor. LOL... it took Carli all of a couple seconds to figure out how to move the sliding tiles to find the treat.

    Okay, next I placed a very tiny morsel of a treat in one of the inner compartments. Placed it on the floor and again Carli figured it out quickly.

    Angel cat was watching this all with great interest. So I tried it with her. Cat figured it out almost as quickly as Dog.

    Scent, they know the scent of treats and regular food. Okay, let's up the ante then!!! Next I took some gross smelling canned dog food and smeared some in each compartment. Then wiped out each compartment. The scent of the canned food was still present in each compartment. Then I repeated the test with a very small morsel of Carli's regular dry food. It took her a little longer but she still found it quickly. Same with Cat.

    LOL, I need to look around for more difficult interactive puzzle toys for both Dog and Cat. :lol:
    Smart doggy and kitty.

    Good evening. One day closer to vacation. My Stubby AIO arrived today. I opened it to look at it but think I’ll wait until I’m on vacation to play around with it. I still have four reviews to do.

    I ended up going to my doctor today. He wanted to check the incisions as well as the drain. Bad news. I need another revision, this one not as elaborate as the last, but I'm going in for surgery on Thursday. This time my daughter will be here to drive me, but I'm getting sick of this. Doctor said this time he's not going to use the buried stitches, but regular non disolvable nylon sutures that will have to be removed. At least I'll get another good nap out of this.

    I have Hulu. They have all 218 episodes (11 seasons).
    I don’t have Hulu plus so would have to watch with ads just like on prime. YouTube tv had all the episodes but have reduced the list to three random seasons.

    You will become expert at giving up nicotine for short spells.

    I still hadn't started back on nicotine since the second surgery. I was thinking that the nicotine might have been the cause the first time, but now I'm not so sure.

    Good morning. Our storm has been downgraded for tomorrow to one inch of snow but it’s still going to be 4 degrees with winds 20-30mph. Beats the heck out of the 5-8 they were originally calling for.

    At least that means you won't have to steel yourself to give it up again for this next procedure.

    I'm sorry that the road to healing has been so rough for you.

    That’s what happened to our last big storm.

    Morning all, I made it to season 4 of the X Files last night. Season 3 really had some great episodes. I have a foot dr. appt today but will probably reschedule to next month. Other than that, no plans.

    No but I have some new parts! :D

    Morning, mixers.

    Plans... depends on how far off the weather guessers are. Claim was down to the low 20s for last night. 33 is a bit off the mark, but in the right direction! And, of course, all that could change by sun up. Then again, they could be right on for 10 miles away!
