Of all things

These folks have the "scoop" on their business

Glad folks have the cash for such services in these hard times. But all the more power to them to make a success and rake the doo doo in!

  1. I remember the days before clumping litter, now that was a stinky pain. I use ceder laced clumping litter and my house doesn't smell like cat at all.

  2. A cat poop thread! LMAO! We're officially The Most Interesting blog in the world! :))

    Seriously though, I admire this couple's entrepreneurial spirit. They saw a consumer need and filled it. Good on them! It beats the heck out of languishing on unemployment. I hope they make a sh*tpot full of money.

  3. I wonder if they'd consider franchising? I'd do that in addition to pet sitting that I did in the USA. I made pretty good pocket money doing that.

  4. I'm considering pet-sitting. I could sure use the extra $$ for more plants.

    This couple has a good idea, no one likes poop-brigade duties :-)

  5. This is hilarious but such a clever idea too. I hate cleaning out our cat Joey's litter box. I have been tempted to use our newly delivered gas masks for the job. At least that way, when The War ™ comes (G-d forbid) I'll know if the gas mask works or not...

    On second thoughts I could use Joey's used litter as unconventional warfare if I could only figure out a long-distance delivery system... :))

  6. Not a new idea, at least here in the land of no employment. Their "peak" season is spring time, especially after a very snowy winter .... when you can't find the frozen poop to pick up until it is overwhelming when the snow melts. (Estimate roughly 20-25 lbs a week for my lovelies.)

    I hired a couple, one that advertises their service regularly, myself two years ago when we had one of those snows from hell winters. We had a virtual crap-scape out back. Took them an hour and a half plus to clean up the yard ...for which they charged $40 and I paid them $50.

    I was delighted to say the least. I get more than a week behind or two behind again, I'll hire them again. Bet on it.

  10. If ANYONE can achieve peace in the Middle East, it will be Annie, the poo-launching granny. All sides will be begging for mercy! Go Annie go! :))

  12. There was a local commercial in Anchorage about the removal of doggie doo as the snow was melting.

    As background, you need to know that dog doo in Anchorage creates little Stonehenges during breakup, as in, the snow aroung the dog doo melts, but that underneath it does not, since it is preotected from the sun. So after a few days the still-solid doo is elevated a few inches above the surrounding area.

    A local entertainer actually uses low-level shots of dog doo, so elevated (no, it is not a classy bar) in his homage to breakup show each spring.

    Anyway, the ad was for a encing company, and two guys were talking about their dogs and how they enjoyed their safe but roomy fenced in yards.

    The first asked, "But what about cleaning up dog poop?"

    And the second answered, "I don't know abour anyone else, but I use a nine-iron."

  13. A nine iron?!? LMAO!!! I guess it would work better than a pool cue or a tennis racket. :p

  14. If you check the Blogs We Enjoy sidebar, I added 'Mr. Whitekeys Fly-By-Nightclub.'

    That is where the show with the poophenge slides was performed.

    Unfortunately, there are no scenes from it, and only a single mention of 'Springtime In Spenard', which is an Anchorage neighborhood where I once lived.
