For me at least. So the cargo pants are what I wear and they have pockets to spare. <br />And hey- congratulations on finding jeans that fit. You should buy about ten pairs now.

Started using it when i found the best fitting jeans for me of all time—like Tailor made for me, this brand, but the pockets are shallow. I walk the dogs a lot and need deep pockets for outdoors. The vest does it for me. Can even carry pepper spray, as well as treats , flashlight, dog poop bags in there as well as safely zip in cell phone and keys Rebecca yourighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280799506632923546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-31540966367638925152018-05-17T07:48:56.085-04:002018-05-17T07:48:56.085-04:00Holy Crap!

It comes in a stick-deodorant formulation. You can probably find it online - I've never seen it for sale in a store, only at the expos you see before big running events. I use it for long runs - anything where I'll be out for more than an hour. It is a miracle substance and will preserve all your tender bits. ...Update - OK, they might have changed it to "Body" - this looks like the same thing, same packaging color and typeface - here's the link to Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/BodyGlide-AB1-Original-Anti-Chafe-Balm/dp/B00288L2N6/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1526555029&sr=8-4&keywords=glide<br /><br />You can use this anywhere - inner thighs, under your bra straps, anywhere. good luck!sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00433184291061135740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-1950465975348069152018-05-17T06:32:54.493-04:002018-05-17T06:32:54.493-04:00Hooray for rescuing the kitten!

Hope it heals up fast.<br /><br />Having bottle raised over 300 kittens for various cat rescue organizations in the past 35 years, i can tell by the kittens pointed ears that it is at least 4 weeks old (younger than that and the ears are still very rounded). <br /><br />For eye goop, colloidal silver. One drop in each eye a couple of times a day will take care of it in about 5-7 days.<br /><br />For worms, Strongid-T. <br /><br />Since the teeth are in, continue to give it some kitten formula but if you are going to want it to eat dry kibble, get the Baby Cat small kibbles from Royal Canin and get it started now -- giving them canned food for too long spoils them and they don't want to bother with dry.<br /><br />Besides fleas, it may also have coccidia and ear mites. Most of the on the neck flea treatments tell you to wait until the kitten is 8 weeks, but the shelter treats at 6 weeks with a half dose. Consult your vet about that, as well as about Ivomec for ear mites and something to prevent or treat coccidia.<br /><br />Once it weighs two pounds, it can be fully vetted and even spayed/neutered, depending on your vet (we do it that early and don't let people adopt until it is done to cut down on the stray population).<br /><br />Until it's had all that, make sure everyone in the house washes up really well after touching the kitten.<br /><br />Welcome to the newest member of the family, and bless Jason for his compassion.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-4908733697116538812018-05-16T19:42:52.052-04:002018-05-16T19:42:52.052-04:00Oh I am sorry to hear of the damage, but boy you m...Oh I am sorry to hear of the damage, but boy you made me chuckle.
