| Yay! No More Ice Cubes Bugaboo is my special needs child. He was born with a cleft palate. He had to be bottle fed very carefully. When he was 9 wks old he had a surgery to repair it. Sadly it did not work. I could not put him through another surgery. As he grew he ate dry food very well. But I had to give him an ice cube to drink. It goes down slowly. He was completely dependent on me. Some people said he was high maintenance. I didn't care because he loved life. Anyhow to make a long story short, he is now drinking from his lixit bottle on his own. I am soooo glad. Bugaboo Momma is So Proud of You.

| Bugaboo sounds like a special yorkie in a lot of way. He is lucky to have you take such good care of him. I bet he is a proud boy learning something new. How old is he now?

| Thank You Bugaboo wants to say for all your praises. He has been trying to use the bottle for a long time. When mamma put a piece of cheese at the tip, I figured out water came out. Thanks Everyone!
