5 am wake up call

I can so feel your pain over this one! Our cat decided to do much the same thing about 3 nights ago...she started retching in the kitchen, on the nice, easy to clean linoleum....but could she stay there? oh heck no...she had to make her way onto the carpet...in 4 places, of course! *sigh*

Don't know whether to laugh or cry over your story. Don't dos just seem to know when you're deep in stress ---- and then add to it!

..she started retching in the kitchen, on the nice,

Oh they never go on the linoleum. Always on the carpet Dora

Well, if those were my only two choices, and I didn't have to consider the clean-up, I'd choose carpet too!

That's funny! It reminded me of a couple of nights ago... woke up to a smell that would wake the dead, except it wasn't the dogs. ;)

(I really should consider separate covers.)

Mine didn't, either! Lol! (I laugh now, but that night I didn't find it funny at all)

Aww, now that's *not* funny. Poor pup... and poor you! Those kinds of accidents on a carpet are such a pain to clean up, they make me want to cry :(

Oh Roxan! Poor you!

We laugh about the time one of our dogs ate Chinese food. Years ago, hubby and I had two dogs. One of them, a stray that I had before we were married, had an iron stomach, and the other, we adopted from the shelter, and we weren't yet aware of what kind of stomach she had!

One night, we brought home some Chinese food. We gave the leftovers to the dogs, not even thinking about it. Iron Stomach boy was fine, but the Tender Tummy girl was not! We went to bed, and early the next morning, I woke up to the most horrible smell! What didn't come out one end, came out the other! It was so gross!! And to top it off, she was a dachshund, and was sleeping under our bed. We had to move the bed to clean the carpet under it!

Oh poor puppy and Roxan! Hope tonight is better!!!

And this is why I'm also pet-free :)

Cheers, Carla

When Trinkett got sick it was coming out everywhere. That's when I almost lost her several months ago. I am so sorry you are going through this. And yes I know how well men sleep when there is work to do. Otherwise DH wakes up at the slightest noise.

That's when you grab the designated assistant by the big toe and wake him up. Then you say, "Do you want to handle the dog's butt or the carpet?"

He picks the carpet every time.

If it's the child having a problem, you do the toe thing and say, "Do you want to make the bed or wash the child?"

Again, he picks making the bed every time.

Fine with me. I have a handheld attachment to the shower, which takes care of whatever horrid thing happens in the middle of the night with no fuss. I'm back in bed sleeping by the time the carpet is clean or the bedding is in the washing machine.

Poor puppy.

I hope you have "Nature's Miracle". It is the best for cleaning rugs.
