Baking Soda

Six years ago, my family members consisted of four canine kids. The products I purchased to take care of my family members left odors, powerful fumes within the house and they were costly. I remember with one product my eyes were tearing up and I had a headache. The directions indicated to keep pets away until it dried. Gee, I’m using it to clear their items yet couldn’t have my canine kids around it.

Today within this economy, I’ve learned to maximize my money, use one product that offers multiple purposes leaving no odors or fumes. Now if you are like me you want to provide these loving family members with clean items such as the bowls they eat and drink from, the bathroom waste basket and the litter box free of lingering odors.

To solve this issue I began researching various products currently in my pantry to see if any of them could provide me with multiple purposes. Right in front of me was a 2 lb yellow box purchased for less than a dollar that met my requirements. This item can be used to clean all my furkids’ bowls, used in the litter box and in the bathroom waste basket after cleaning out the litter box. Of course, it has so many purposes I’m sort of embarrassed for not using it sooner.

I’ll bet there are some of you who already figured out the name of this product. If you guessed Arm and Hammer Baking Soda you are absolutely correct. Baking soda is pure, safe and natural and when I use it to wash the pets’ bowls it eliminates odors on contact as it goes down the drain. I sure could have saved money years ago had I thought about this one product. Usually I place one box in the refrigerator one box in the freezer then forget about it for three months. This is truly a beneficial product for all of us.

  • My First Feline

    Two years ago while visiting a family member on Father’s Day a magnificent kitten who I named “Prince” (aka – Prince Charming because every female should have one) walked into my life. He is my first feline family member! I never realized cats dont’ enjoy vehicle rides but he made the trip from southwest Texas to centeral Texas. The sounds Prince made during this trip were extremely unique. Much to my surprise Prince and his new older brothers all dogs united with each other as if they had been family members all along. They play with one another as seen in the photo. I was consistently told while growing up that “cats and dogs don’t get along with each other”. Now I giggle when I see them all together because we truly are a loving family.
