There are the 2 different shows on hoarders, and then there is also the Animal Planet show on animal hoarders.

I've read that there is an epidemic of personality disorders nowadays, but of all things, I also recently read that ... I think it's the Brits... are deleting Narcissistic Personality Disorder as a diagnosis.

Perhaps that's because narcissism is so prevalent as a key trait in other personality disorders?

It seems to me that PJ-Comix is so experienced at couponing that they don't have multiple dozens of cereal boxes -- although they obviously ADORE pizza, LOL

I'm thinking that it would be nice to figure out how to get Extreme Deals on pet foods and pet products --- as the animal shelters all have such massive needs and long wish lists. I don't know whether many Extreme Coupon Deals exist for pet-stuff, but I'd be interested in learning about that.

A few months ago I picked up a TON of FREE Chef Michaels cans for a friend's dog and also for my sister-in-law's dog. The latter dog LOVED the stuff since she ATTACKED it hungrily. I also got her a lot of Whiska's for her cat for almost nothing. Ditto back in March when I picked up 3 lb bags of Good Life Recipe for cats.

My belief about deleting personality disorders from the diagnostic manuals (IIRC, the US is doing that, as well), is that there is no cure. Cognitive therapy helps, but it has to be ongoing and is expensive. Some meds for anxiety help some people, some of the time, to some degree, but, again, it isn’t a cure, per se.

I have no idea about pet food coupons, but some beef or pork producers who process their own animals for their own use might be willing to make a deal for liver and other offal and scraps. I am actually working on this for beef liver from a farmer, as we have discovered that liver perks up our elderly Akita to am amazing degree. His vet suggested fish oil, which I add in capsules when he has canned dog food, but I also give him canned mackerel (about $1.42 for a large can) as often as possible. He loves it!
