The Year of the Bitch

Chinese New Year begins today and 2018 is the Year of the Dog...


Or as we here at Infomaniac like to call it, THE YEAR OF THE BITCH.

Chinese people believe that what you do during the Chinese New Year festival will affect your luck for the entire following year. You should avoid crying children, don't do laundry, don't sweep the floor, and don't wash your hair. Can you manage that?

We hope the dog in the photo (above) has purchased his book prior to the new year because buying books during the festival will make you lose your luck. Book (书 / shū ) is a homonym for lose (失去 / shīqù).

Happy Chinese New Year, Bitches!

Following the previous post in which we discussed our animal friends sharing our beds...

... we now turn our attention to a line of feline furniture from Japan. The pieces consist of scaled-down, miniature versions of human-sized furniture...


More to see here....

And closer to home...

Your cat or dog can now have his/her own bed thanks to a new line of pet furniture from IKEA...


Although try telling that to Norma's baby...

Dalmatian Dog Rides a Bicycle

Watch a video clip of a Dalmatian dog riding a bike by himself in Japan.

Apparently, this dog was always interested in bicycles since he was a puppy, so the owner trained him to ride a bike by himself.

Mind those bollocks!

Poop Happens

Over at A Long Way From Om, Ginny discusses her reluctance to pick up the “doggie bombs” on her lawn.

Ginny needs a company like A-1 Pooper Scoopin’.

You might say it’s a crap job. Diane Blanchard is a professional pooper-scooper. She makes a living picking up after people’s pets.

The snow in Calgary, Alberta can really pile up so Diane has her work cut out for her. But she has an eye for excrement and can spot a frozen "poopsicle" even under a blanket of snow.

Diane guarantees her work. If she misses a doggy deposit in your yard, she’ll return to pick it up. She’s number 1 in the number 2 business.

So if you’re sick of patrolling your pooch’s poop, see if there’s a poop scooping service in your area. Look in the Yellow Pages under ‘Pet Care Services.’

In other dog poop developments, Make Your Own Dog Waste Composter.
