DEAR PAW'S CORNER: My daughter and her family have two big dogs and a cat. I like giving gifts to the pets as well as my grandkids. Do you have any suggestions? -- Tammy, via email

DEAR TAMMY: Anything that looks cozy, fun and safe for pets is a good bet. I've always appreciated even small gifts like a cute bandanna for my dog or small catnip toys for my cat. If you're looking for gifts beyond stocking stuffers, here are some that most pet owners will appreciate:

--Dog and cat beds: These range in price from about $15 on up to a few hundred dollars. Look for a sturdy fabric covering that is easy to brush fur from, and stuffing that can't be easily pulled out and chewed on.

--Cat furniture: From a simple padded windowsill seat to "kitty condo" play complexes that cats can wander through, cat owners appreciate these combination scratching posts and rest areas.

--Travel safety: A number of products have come on the market to keep dogs and cats safe in the car, from traditional travel crates to adapted seat belts that keep Fido securely in his seat.

--Toys: For your daughter's big dogs, sturdy chew toys are probably welcome. I still really like Kong chew toys, which are nearly impossible to damage and can be filled with peanut butter or another treat. For cats, something beyond the catnip mouse could

include one of Bergan's "Turbo Tracks," in which a ball in-set in a round or figure-eight track scoots around with every swipe of the paw.

No matter which gift you choose, or if you decide to just give small, inex-pensive gifts to your daughter's pets, I'm sure they'll be appre-ciated.

CHIMNEY SERVICE


• On Dec. 18, 1777, the new United States celebrates its first national day of thanksgiving, commemorating the American victory at the Battle of Saratoga after the sur-render of Gen. John Burgoyne and 5,000 British troops that October.

• On Dec. 22, 1808, Beethoven's Fifth Symphony has its world premiere in Vienna. The concert venue was freez-ing cold and the orchestra played poorly enough to force the nearly deaf composer -- also acting as conductor and pianist -- to stop the ensemble partway into one passage and start again from the very beginning.

• On Dec. 17, 1903, near Kitty Hawk, N.C., Orville and Wilbur Wright make the first successful flight of a self-propelled aircraft. Orville piloted the gasoline-powered, propeller-driven biplane, which stayed aloft for 12 seconds and covered 120 feet on its inaugural flight.

• On Dec. 19, 1917, four teams of the National Hockey League play the league's first two games. At the time of its inception, the NHL was made up of the Canadiens and the Wanderers (both of Montreal), the Ottawa Sena-tors, the Quebec Bulldogs and the Toronto Arenas.

• On Dec. 23, 1968, the crew and cap-tain of the U.S. intelligence gathering ship Pueblo are released after 11 months imprisonment by the govern-

ment of North Korea. The ship, and its 83-man crew, was seized by warships on Jan. 23 and charged with intruding into North Korean waters.
