Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use a carrier in good working order. Put the carrier out a few days before the move. Make the carrier smell like home. Consider using medication to calm the cat for the move. Consider closing the cat into a room during the move. Try a test run.

Answer: If you're going to move with a cat, it's important to use a good quality cat carrier, not a temporary one used in some pet stores, and certainly not a cardboard box or other type of carrier. Use a carrier big enough for your cat to turn around comfortably, but small enough to keep them contained and persuade your cat to bed down and hide. Even if you have a really calm cat that's a good traveller, keep it in the carrier during the move. Don't try to let cats move freely about the car during a road trip, unless you want to spend time herding them around rest stop parking lots. It's a good idea to carry along a roll of duct tape to make repairs if necessary along the way. Sometimes, cats will claw, push, or chew at the carrier if they get a bit anxious. If you've never moved your cat in a carrier before, it's a good idea to keep it out and open for a few days to let your cat become accustomed to it. Cats will typically rub their scent onto the corners of the carrier, which will make it more familiar when you close them inside. Give your cat as long as possible to explore the carrier and get used to it. It's best to give it a few weeks or even a month or 2. If you can, place a comfortable bed inside the carrier to encourage your kitty to rest and relax inside it. Some people like to feed cats inside the carrier, but since the cat won't actually be eating in the carrier, it's not necessary. Just leave it out, throw a toy or two in there, and let the cat explore alone. A lot of anxiety can be alleviated for your cat by treating the inside of the carrier and making it smell more inviting. Natural cat pheromones are commonly used for this purpose, but there are lots of ways to do this, with both commercial products and things around the house. Feliway is the pheromone emitted through cats' faces, used to mark territory. Synthesized Feliway wipes can be used to apply to the inside of the carrier and calm the cat. They're available at most pet stores. For a quick and easy remedy, try putting one of your t-shirts into the carrier. Your smell and the smell of home will calm your cat in many cases. Cat toys or blankets can also be used in the same way. If your cat tends to be skittish and nervy, it's a good idea to talk to your vet about anxiety meds that you can use during the moving process to make it easier on everyone. Bach flower, valerian, and kava are natural herbs sometimes used to calm motion sickness, and mixtures are widely available at pet stores. Meclizine is an anti-nausea medication that you can use with a prescription from your vet. As moving day approaches, the stacks of boxes and general hubbub can be quite anxiety-inducing for your cat. Some people prefer to isolate the cat during this transitional period, closing them in a bedroom with food, water, and litter, in a quiet corner of the house. This is an especially good idea if you're hiring movers to come and go, which usually requires the door to be left open for a longer period of time, increasing the odds that your cat may make a dash for it. If this is a concern, close them up for a while. Check on your cat often, and make sure it has everything it needs. The cat needs food, water, a litter box, toys, and a place to hide. You know your cat better than anyone else. If being closed up in a room will stress your cat out more than letting them roam, don't do it. If you've got a long move ahead of you, it's probably not the best time to put your cat in the car for the very first time. Instead, try making a few shorter trips, driving around long enough for the cat to calm down. This way, your cat will learn that they'll eventually be let out of the car and the trip well end.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Talk about something going on around you. Ask him a question. Pay him a compliment. Ask for his help with something small. Pretend to know or remember him.

Answer: When you're looking for an excuse to start a conversation with a guy, start with something that's going on around you. For example, you can comment on an event flier you see nearby ("Hey, do you live in this neighborhood? I see that there's a farmer's market but I've never been. Is it any good?"). You could also comment on another person, if you see someone doing something nice ("Did you see that? It's a shame you don't see that more often."). If you see that he's wearing something interesting, like a shirt with an event logo or university, you can ask him about it ("Have you actually gone to Burning Man? I've always want to go."). You can also ask him about an item you see him holding, like a book ("Is that book any good? I'm looking to add to my reading list for this summer."). Look at what he's wearing. If he's wearing something nice, he's probably pretty proud of it and paying him a compliment will be a great way to grab his attention. Especially if he's wearing nice shoes. Watches, ties, and cuff links are also often sources of pride. Everyone likes to feel like they have a purpose, so help him feel like your hero in order to break the ice. Ask him if he'll help you reach something nearby. Ask him to hold your place in line while you grab something really quick (run and grab the nearest item around the corner). Ask him for directions. These can be great ways to start a conversation. Catch his eye and let him see you looking at him with a confused expression. Then, go up to him and say something like, "I'm really sorry to bother you, but I'm sure we've met before. I can't remember where but...I didn't want to be rude and make you feel like I was ignoring you." Then do a quick game of trying to figure out where you've met before. (Where do you work? Do you volunteer? etc...)

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Do your initial styling on a foam head. Use a stainless steel brush on synthetic wigs. Avoid using any styling products. Use steam rather than heat tools.

Answer:
Styling the wig white it's on a foam head will give you the freedom to work on the style from every angle. You can get a foam head from a wig store or beauty supply store or online for about $5. Rather than using your regular hair bush, get one made of stainless steel. Use it to carefully brush the wig hair, starting at the ends and working your way to the roots. Brushing the wig will "wake up" the fibers. Synthetic wigs are inexpensive and therefore aren't made to last very long. However, using styling products can cause the wig to deteriorate even faster! Don't use any products, like hairspray or heat protectants, on synthetic hair. Heat tools, like a curling iron or straightener will ruin the synthetic fibers. However, you can use steam to remove kinks or set a style. If you often wear synthetic wigs, you should invest in a handheld steamer, like the ones used to get wrinkles out of clothing. If you want to add curls to the wig, put the hair in foam rollers, then go over it with the steamer. Let the wig cool and dry, then remove the rollers.
