Pet Tips 'n' Tales
If you don't water the birds, who will?
TIPS
It is HOT out there and humans are classified as animals.

A handy TIP is placing your daily quota of FULL drinking water glasses onto the kitchen counter, beside the computer and bed.  

This way as you walk through the house seeing a full glass reminds you that you 'forgot' to drink water.  

Our bodies are made up of 65% water, so there is no way we can refuel ourselves with enough water replacing the moisture we breath out/tinkle and excrete daily unless we ‘fill 'er up’ with clean water.

I assumed that tea and coffee counted as body liquid.  Big ooops, as they apparently deplete our water level, by being big time diuretics, requiring us to actually need to consume more water!
SO drink up!

- Also, place a water bowl outside for birds, wild animals and stray pets. 

Even bees and butterflies need water and with the heat and water shortage, many communities are not watering laws or running city water fountains leaving insects/birds/animals without a water source.

Thank you for helping the wild life, birds, squirrels, feral kitties and bees who all like your water gifts.
