There are times in the so-called real world where my kids and I will look at some advertised entree and say, "Neopets food!" (To be honest, poutine hit me this way!) I just took a look in my shop and only found one item for this thread {Christmas Pile of Soot, below}, because to be truthful I just donate anything that makes me go "ew!" (And I never feed my gang anything I wouldn't eat, although they do have an occasional Clay Omelette to help settle their tummies.) There's something about the pathos of the lack of mouth, the expression in the eyes . . . topped with a jolly seasonal hat.

I agree with what's been said about HTML changes. I got flagged on a list of my avvies I'd put on one of my pet pages. Reason? I'd used the forbidden word "crack"--only I hadn't: TNT had, in their name for the pteri egg avvie--"cracked." I had to do some fancy dancing, including using one of those name changing sites for the file. Sometimes TNT just doesn't think things through. I'm sorry you had to go through that!

(((hug))) We lost our beloved Ripley to cancer four years ago, and she is still missed. I was afraid of the grief, so I mourned some ahead of time--put on songs that make me cry, etc. So when "Dr. Kevorkian" came, I was as ready as possible. (If you can afford it, I very much recommend a house call for that final visit. Our vet was aces.) But maybe you will get a good surgeon; maybe the tumor is encapsulated and will pop right out. We're all pulling for you here. <3
