So today I took my bunny to the vet to get some stitches removed. And also to pick up my sister's cat who got neutered. Poor thing, they de-gendered it. Anyways, they gave my dad some meds to give to the cat, and the vet lady jokingly says to my dad, "You can take some too". And so my dad laughs and says, "does that mean I can just give him some tylenol?" The Vet Lady gets all serious and looks at us and says, "No, that'll kill him". Which made me very sad, because obviously, Tylenol is tested on animals. Just like everything else you can buy at wal-mart.

speaking of the board-wide okapi obsession
Oh . . . my . . . gosh . . .
the okapi just got even more interesting, if you can believe that. They don't produce solid waste for between 30 and 50 days! Read more on the most recent member of the domesticated okapi family, out here at the Brookfield Zoo (and thanks for the tip, Dan!):
