can I do?

He's home from work today because of the snow storm, thought the cat (always indoors) would like the snow and ice, put a harness on him and had him slipping around out there "skating" trying to make a funny video ... probably for about a half an hour to an hour.

He finally brings the cat back in the house, and the cat is limping and can barely walk .. he calls me all in a panic!

I told him to take the cat to the vet immediately, but he's afraid to drive in the snow, and I can't leave work.

Help, anyone know what I can do?

If any of this helps, I have a moderate skill level, I'm 5'8, I weigh about 140, and I prefer performance over speed. Also, I don't want a board that requires bindings. I want the kind where the boot snaps directly on and off the board.

What is the best snowboard size for a female, 5'4" in height and 138 pounds in weight? I am just a beginner and do not want to invest a whole lot of money starting out. Any suggestions would be great! Thank you!

It has started to snow here in Chicago, and we are to get 1-2 inches. I am wondering if that is enough, if not, what is a good amount of snowfall to go sledding? 6-12 inches, more, less?

Hey, I am debating this topic at school and want to get some perspective about it. Do you think the X Games are Extreme? Extreme Enough? Not Extreme at all? Are you an X Games fan? Why or why not? I'd like to hear what you think. It would help me think about this a lot. Also, if you have any cool sites I could check out, I'd like to get the links. Thanks!

Is it legal to wear regular winter boots while I go snowboarding?

Because I ordered snowboarding boots and they haven't come in yet, and today is going to be a beautiful day.

They almost look like snowboarding boots, so im just wondering if I could get away with it.

Hi all

I am new to snowboarding,i can link turns and do the odd trick here and there however when i get to hill of little gradient which i have to go straight i begin to panic as i feel like i`m due to take a tumble because the back seems to feel like the back is going come round to the front.

How can i stop this? what am i doing wrong i am fine doing a red run e.t.c but the slow stuff catches me out and its beginning to put me off.

I have already dislocated 3 fingers and torn the ligaments and broke a bone in my arm and stretched my ligaments/tendons on my knee.Not very lucky but i really wish to progress.I am away to meribel in 2 weeks time and wish to be in the right frame of mind.

When I snowboard there are a select few songs that I listen to when I want to get pumped up, but I am getting tired of listening to the same songs over and over. So for all of you snowboarders out there, let me know what you like to listen to while boarding. I want to make a couple more playlists.Thanks dude.

I'm 18 years old and I only just started figure skating lessons one year ago. By the time I am good enough for ice shows like Disney on ice, will I be too old? It's something I really want to do.

I am going snowboarding in March. I haven't been in about 7 years and I imagine alot has changed. I remember the last time I had to strap in but was later told I could have used "click-in" bindings. Should I get these? I will be renting. Also, how do you know what size board you need?
