My mom has a saying that translates into..

Everything that has a use will eventually wear out.

Poop happens, so does hairballs, kids, mud......

There used to be an old Roseann comedy routine that went something like this.

"Close the refridgerator door!!!"

"Close the refridgerator !!!"

"Close the!!"

"Close!!!"

"PEH!!!!"

Don't worry about the pets who don't know the value of new carpet. Worry about the people who do.
