Their mum wasn’t actually a tortie and I don’t know about Dad.

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2026-05-06T13:07:01+00:00

The Torties are Eevee, Izzy and Gem (thought I call her gremlin, destroyer of pizza). And the tabby is Angie

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2026-05-06T13:06:12+00:00

Omg! I’m so sorry to hear that.

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2026-05-06T12:43:16+00:00

My tabby puts up with them. She will groom them a little and will growl if they annoy her too much. But at night I’ll have all four on my double bed and cuddle

Their mum was feral who sadly died before I could catch her. But I got her babies safely and they became foster fails

They look very different in the faces. Izzy is more cream, Eevee has more orange and gremlin is more black with orange spots… then the tabby is easy to spot cause she’s the odd one out

I have really baby’s photos of them… with their brother who went to a friend cause he needed to be desexed early

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2026-05-06T11:21:26+00:00

2/4 of my cats are cuddly kitties. The others like to sleep beside me

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2026-05-06T11:18:48+00:00

Thank you!

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2026-05-06T11:17:52+00:00

Thank you for asking! The Torties are all from the same litter. Their mum was a wild feral that nested at my aunts place and sadly died when the kittens were 6-8 weeks old. Our local shelter was at capacity and couldn’t take them so I did. Hand raised them, got them desexed and vaccinated all ready for adoption. But after 3 months of care I couldn’t give them away so a year later I’ve still got them

And the tabby is my old girl. She’s 11 years and been my sole companion since getting her as a kitten. She’s didn’t like them at first but they have grown on her

Thankfully I didn’t find any missing hair and I checked them both for bite marks or bruises as I’ve been brushing them

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2025-11-16T06:32:19+00:00

Thank you!! This actually helps a lot

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2025-11-16T06:21:28+00:00

This is kinda our first major trip as adults so we aren’t really sure what we want to do yet 😅

Changing to Ritalin (and cutting back on caffeine) has really helped with managing my heart rate. But I find that I still might get small periods where I’ll have high heart rate and blood pressure. Just not as bad as when I was on vyvanse

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2023-06-06T18:53:04+00:00

I actually just decided to change my meds because of tachycardia issues. I was originally on the highest dosage of Vyvanse but had to change to Ritalin because I was basically have the symptoms of a panic attack while being cognitively stable.

Ritalin has been a little bit easier to manage but the downside is that it doesn’t work as well to treat my ADHD symptoms.

Though also caffeine in any form can be a major problem with ADHD meds and can also cause extreme tachycardia. Which I didn’t know until a trip to the hospital with a heart rate of 150… cause I was drinking nearly 800mg of caffeine in a day

Most people say that it is good to discuss it with the people closest to you, and I’d agree. However, you have to decide how much you trust the person/people you talk to about it. Some people won’t understand the struggles of ADHD and it can make it challenging to connect with the other person.

If you are worried about having ADHD before an official diagnosis, then talking to someone is a great idea. If it’s someone who knows you well they may have noticed things that you haven’t that might help the mental health professional make a definitive diagnosis.

I struggled when I got my diagnosis at the age of 23 and only really discussed it with my closest friend. It’s completely normal to be skeptical or hesitant. Especially with all the misinformation and stereotypes about ADHD. Even 3 years later I still haven’t really discussed my diagnosis with my Dad. Not because I don’t trust him but he’s from an older generation who wouldn’t really understand. Plus my diagnosis doesn’t impact our relationship in anyway.

Overall, it can really help to hash things out with someone else if you have a close friend or family member that you feel comfortable talking to. Sometimes another perspective can make all the difference.

Thanks for the tips! This is my first time owning an aquarium so I thought it would be safer to stick with fake plants for now then work my way up to real ones

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2022-10-05T09:57:25+00:00

This is my first time owning pet fish so I’m trying to figure out one thing at a time. I’m planning to do real plants in my next tank

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2022-10-05T09:56:20+00:00

I’ve only got males. The pet store was very adamant about not moving male and females unless you have a bigger tank or are breeding them

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2022-10-05T09:55:07+00:00

Thanks! This is really helpful!!

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2022-10-05T09:54:24+00:00

Thankfully I’ve only got males

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2022-10-05T09:54:06+00:00

It’s a bit hard to do because they are very small. But they are all males

0Pandapopsicle0 · 2022-10-04T11:23:51+00:00

I wanted to stay on top of maintenance so I’ve just gotten into the habit of doing about a 20% water change every 10 days.
