Glad Charley is doing so well and having lots of time with you. Hope your foot heals fast.  It is always fun trying to learn how to use a new computer isn't it?

OK I will give Charley an extra nut today from you   I decided to clean Chucks room with water and peroxide today instead of Clorox clean up.....I read if you dilute it in hot water it cleans better than bleach and disinfects better....I got an email about all the uses, I should copy it and put it up here....I think I will, well anyway i washed his floor with it, it looks cleaner and it doesn't have a funky smell like bleach/bleach always smells like stinky feet to me until it dries   OK just a little FYI   I need to give him his first shower since sometime in December before all his belly issues sprang up.....but it was warm this morning, now cooling off and I have to make sure he is completely dry before I can put his vest back on   so what to do what to do....guess I will just sponge bath and then wait till maybe the end of the week when I can bring him outside in the sunshine to dry   I hope everyone is having a great day and enjoying their fuzz butts

Here is the email I got about peroxide......................

CLOROX VERSUS PEROXIDE
Clorox vs Peroxide VERY interesting and inexpensive. This was written by Becky Ransey of Indiana
(a doctor's Wife), and I want to share it with you. She was over recently for coffee and smelled the bleach I was using to clean my toilet and counter tops. This is what she told me. 'I would like to tell you of the benefits of that Plain little ole bottle of
3% peroxide you can get for under $1.00 at any drug store. What does bleach cost?

My husband has been in the medical field for over 36 years, And most doctors don't tell you about peroxide. Have you Ever smelled bleach in a doctor's office? NO!!!

Why? because it smells, and it is not healthy! Ask the nurses who work in the doctor's offices, and ask them if they use bleach at home. They are wiser and know better!

Did you also know bleach was invented in the late 40's? It's chlorine, folks! And it was used to kill our Troops. Peroxide was invented during WWI in the 20's. It was used to save and help cleanse the needs of our troops and hospitals.


Please think about this:
1. Take one capful (the little white cap that comes with the bottle) and hold in your mouth for 10 minutes daily, then spit it out. (I do it when I bathe.) No more canker sores, and your teeth will be whiter without expensive pastes. Use it instead of mouthwash.

2. Let your toothbrushes soak in a cup of peroxide to keep them free of germs.


3. Clean your counters and table tops with peroxide to kill germs and leave a fresh smell. Simply put a little on your dishrag when you wipe, or spray it on the counters.

4. After rinsing off your wooden cutting board, pour peroxide on it to kill salmonella and other bacteria.

5. I had fungus on my feet for years until I sprayed a
50/50 mixture of peroxide and water on them
(especially the toes) every night and let dry.

6. Soak any infections or cuts in
3% peroxide for five to ten minutes several times a day. My husband has seen gangrene that would not heal with any medicine but was healed by soaking in peroxide.


7. Fill a spray bottle with a
50/50 mixture of peroxide and Water and keep it in every bathroom to disinfect without Harming your septic system like bleach or most other Disinfectants will.


8. Tilt your head back and spray into nostrils with your
50/50 mixture whenever you have a cold, plugged sinus. It will bubble and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes, and then blow your nose into a tissue.

9. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot get to a dentist right away, put a capful of 3% peroxide into your mouth and hold it for ten minutes several times a day. The pain will lessen greatly.


10. And of course, if you like a natural look to your hair, spray the 50/50 solution on your wet hair after a shower and comb it through. You will not have the peroxide-burnt blonde hair like the hair dye packages but more natural highlights if your hair is a light brown, reddish, or dirty blonde. It also lightens gradually, so it's not a drastic change.


11. Put half a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help get rid of boils, fungus, or other skin infections.

12. You can also add a cup of peroxide instead of bleach to a load of whites in your laundry to whiten them. If there is blood on clothing, pour it directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.


13. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors. There is no smearing, which is why I love it so much for this.

14. Another place it's great is in the bathroom, if someone has been careless & has peed on the floor around the toilet & it's begun to smell of urine. Just put some peroxide in a spray bottle & spray. In the blink of any eye all the smell will be gone & the bacteria eliminated!



I could go on and on. It is a little brown bottle no home should be without! With prices of most necessities rising, I'm glad there's a way to save tons of money in such a simple, healthy manner! ' This information really woke me up. I hope you gain something from it, too.


Pass it on! Clorox vs peroxide VERY interesting and inexpensive e]

Oh what cute photos! He is so cute with his little cummberbund on. And all though one misses that fluffy tail he is so cute with his nub because he looks like a cross between a squirrel and a ground hog or chippie. Really adorable looking.
Does being tails affect his balance any?  What type of limb/branch is he enjoying?
And yes, sunshine and warmth! I am so happy to see something besides overcast skies and feeling chilled to the bone from the damp humidity. This has been one of the coldest winters in Florida in centuries I think. The only good thing that I hope comes from all this hard winter we have had is I hope it will cut back on the mosquito's and fleas some.

Hi Hennawi yes his cumberbun  I should color it like a tux  it works and thank goodness he doesn't mess with it  the branch is from a live oak tree I have a whole yard of them so he was having a good time  do chippys not have tails  guess I didn't realize that....well I always wanted a chippy  he use to go on a high branch we have in his room/but he stopped doing that, it never effected his balance/however he doesn't have full use of his back legs but he can get from point A to point B in no time    /you want to see how cold it was in my yard this winter....I will post a pic I took of my pool  even my brother in Dallas twice had 6 inches of snow....never had that happened before  hope we never have it again...I don't have heat/just fire place so lucky we always have a surplus of wood ...but this was crazy .....but I really doubt if it will kill any fleas or skitters  hope you have a great day 
Skye Thanks Charley is doing very well and he has been enjoying the outdoors with me    hope you have a wonderful day

Hey C.C.; you said that your boy does not full use of his back legs. I have a friend who has a sweet little girl (about 4 years old now) who had no use of her legs either. We thought and tried everything and then one night I saw a thing on T.V. about hydro therapy and told her about it so she started putting her girl in the sink in warm water twice a say every day. Supporting her under the belly and letting her doggie paddle. Well now she has complete use of one back leg.  Actually she has caught her running and bouncing on both legs and only a slight notice of her not putting weight on the other one. We have decided that when she favors the one it is now just to get sympathy and attention because she uses it to well when she wants or doesn't think anyone is watching. It took about a 6 or 7 months before she started using her back legs but the joy and happiness my friend experienced when he did see her improving. Maybe you should consider hydrotherapy also. It can't hurt and might help.

Wow Hennawi that is great news.....I didn't explain Charley's paralysis very well....he moves his back legs when I hold him all the time ( it does look like he is dog paddling)      ....he does a peddling motion....I have kidded with him tell him he could have peddled many times back and forth from Florida to Calif. many times by now.........he just doesn't have the best coordination/and can't use his back legs to spring  far like a normal squirrel does....but I have given him therapy since I got him.....he does have regular baths/showers....but he just cant hang by his toes upside down like a regular squirrel would do.. he does stand using his back legs and bounces off the screen using them, and is very fast you really wouldn't know he was handicapped at all   in fact he has no idea he is  ........I am glad your friends squirrel will let her put her in water/Charley is use to that too....did your friend always bath her squirrel   thanks for the tip
