Those spots and the back of your knees are your "pressure" points, if you keep them cool, it will in turn cool off your entire body.

They actually make neck bands, with that stuff that freezes like ice, but takes much longer. They give these to runners, people who work outside all day, etc. Not too sure the exact name or where to buy them, but I do know they are out there! :rolleyes: Try a store that sells sporting goods....?

Thanks for all of the great ideas, I will definatly try them! :) My boss told me I can always sleep at work too, so I will try that if nothing else works, the shop is always nice and cool and then I won't have to get ready for work in the morning. :p

The rabbit barn at the fair has lots of industrial sized fans but Oslo still is not faring well. :( He's feeling bad. For rabbits we put frozen water bottles on their ears because ears are like temperature regulaters. In the winter keeping them warm warms up your body I think almost 10 degrees, so it should work the same backwards. Try holding ice on your ears.

CatsnClay, we put one of those on our dog sometimes. :)
