This disease warrants a friendly reminder.

We are traveling, but this time it is for pleasure instead of work. We brought Bow of course and I did my normal item/toxin sweep of the room and this is what I found: a small tennis ball (dog toy) hiding in the drapes, a plastic dow from a manicure kit, a cotton ball, several bits of small dog kibble under the couch, and this weird small plastic box. Everything is easy to identify except the for the box. I did a Google Lens search and came up with nothing. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm glad that I found all of these things before Bow did!

It’s nice to see the Irvine crew again. And for those of you who have followed my stories of finding “goodies” in my hotel rooms, my room is clean this time!

You guessed it, I’m working in Irvine again this week. 😋

As rattlesnakes head to their den this season, don't fall for myths about treating snake bites like cutting the bite site, applying ice packs, or using tourniquets. These methods can delay critical care and worsen your pet's condition. The only effective treatment for a rattlesnake bite is antivenom.

Here's what you need to know 🐍 :

- Don't delay: Get your pet to a vet immediately if you suspect a snakebite.
- Keep the bite site below the heart: This can help slow the spread of venom.
- Know the signs: Look for swelling, bruising, pain, weakness, and difficulty breathing.
- Prevent bites: Keep your pet on a leash when hiking, stay on open trails, and avoid tall grass.

Even if your pet doesn't show immediate symptoms, a snakebite can still be serious. Early treatment is crucial.

I’m not really on fire, nor do I feel like it, but isn’t it a cool filter!?

I’m covering night shifts at BluePearl Olympia Fri and Sat night. It’s nice to be home in Olympia, especially as we gradually crawl toward Fall weather.

Here’s another very common place for toxic things to hide in hotel rooms! This was 200 mg Ibuprofen.
