I read most of the books below listed and they are very superior to Amsterdam. I don't have any small pets, though, other than fish and they are already clean in the water. I wouldn't put it past my dh to do a couple of these, though. I love the name of the book you are reading. The toilet is a handy place for pet baths.

I'm having that problem with The Poisonwood Bible as a matter of fact. I started to read it, but realized right away that this text calls for a slower than normal reading, so I've put it down. I'm in the mood to steamroll through books this week. Upon entering house remove contact lenses. Do not, repeat, do not, put on eyeglasses.
