: supplemental stuff I give him outside on newspaper (mixed in
: small electric chopper to blend it all), I rinse off his legs and face
: so as not to attract ants. We're not having an ant problem and
: I'd like to keep it that way. He lets me wipe his messy mouth
: without objection and even use a hose to rinse him off (hot/cold
: water is a GOOD idea outside).

: Also, in the car when we go down to visit my parents, he rides
: in his carrier, and using a big towel as the "substrate" (Good
: idea, thanks Heather), he doesn't slide around like when I tried
: newspaper. He does really well in the car with his towel in
: there. Granted it's only a few minute ride but he's relaxed.
: Then when we get there, I open the front and he walks out ready
: to explore.

: Giovanni, I can see the collard pic, but the other ones aren't
: there according to photopoint. ? niki
