1 (one, unit, unity) is a number, numeral, and glyph. It is the first and smallest positive integer of the infinite sequence of natural numbers. This fundamental property has led to its unique uses in other fields, ranging from science to sports, where it commonly denotes the first, leading, or top thing in a group. 1 is the unit of counting or measurement, a determiner for singular nouns, and a gender-neutral pronoun. Historically, the representation of 1 evolved from ancient Sumerian and Babylonian symbols to the modern Arabic numeral.
In mathematics, 1 is the multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number. In digital technology, 1 represents the "on" state in binary code, the foundation of computing. Philosophically, 1 symbolizes the ultimate reality or source of existence in various traditions.

A box (plural: boxes) is a container with rigid sides used for the storage or transportation of its contents. Most boxes have flat, parallel, rectangular sides (typically rectangular prisms). Boxes can be very small (like a matchbox) or very large (like a shipping box for furniture) and can be used for a variety of purposes, from functional to decorative.
Boxes may be made of a variety of materials, both durable (such as wood and metal) and non-durable (such as corrugated fiberboard and paperboard). Corrugated metal boxes are commonly used as shipping containers.
Boxes may be closed and shut with flaps, doors, or a separate lid. They can be secured shut with adhesives, tapes, string, or more decorative or elaborately functional mechanisms, such as catches, clasps or locks.
Purple is a color similar in appearance to violet light. In the RYB color model historically used in the arts, purple is a secondary color created by combining red and blue pigments. In the CMYK color model used in modern printing, purple is made by combining magenta pigment with either cyan pigment, black pigment, or both. In the RGB color model used in computer and television screens, purple is created by mixing red and blue light in order to create colors that appear similar to violet light.
Purple has long been associated with royalty, originally because Tyrian purple dye—made from the secretions of sea snails—was extremely expensive in antiquity. Purple was the color worn by Roman magistrates; it became the imperial color worn by the rulers of the Byzantine Empire and the Holy Roman Empire, and later by Roman Catholic bishops. Similarly in Japan, the color is traditionally associated with the emperor and aristocracy.
According to contemporary surveys in Europe and the United States, purple is the color most often associated with rarity, royalty, luxury, ambition, magic, mystery, piety and spirituality. When combined with pink, it is associated with eroticism, femininity, and seduction.
Soft may refer to:
- Softness, or hardness, a property of physical materials

Had no problems with getting my dog her monthly meds delivered on time. Loved how fast my order came. Would highly recommend checking CHEWY’S first for your monthly’s
by Brittany
Only in the first month of treatment but so far, so good. This product works!
by Macy
No surprise that using the pharmacy is a simple and easy process. It’s so nice to have a one stop shop for all her needs knowing that Chewy has whatever she needs, great prices and terrific help.

I ordered Nexgard Soft Chew (purple box), 3 month supply, for my 7 month Corgi. So easy to order, especially when we had repeated snow storms and ice. Product was delivered, to my front door in two days. This item is generally around the same price wherever it is sold…the difference is…I had a $15 off coupon from Chewy, plus, the delivery was a big bonus!
by Brett
So much easier than going to the vet. Also cheaper. Love the auto-reorder.
by Joey
Vet recommended and so far no more Ticks. Pulled 3 or 4 off our dog in as many days prior to giving him Nexgard.
by Pagu
Love to shop here, the price is less than a regular vet, plus they check with your vet to make sure you are getting the right one for you pet.
by Cooper
Easy, fast, couldn’t be better! We will continue buying from this place.
by Debbie
Elkie is growing fast and I should be able to use all 3 doses to 60 pounds. After that…who knows.
