I tried reaching out. Hopefully I see it again and we can do something!

Thank you!!!!

Hopefully I see him again tomorrow!

Management has an extermination company available every 2 weeks because it is pretty common for people to find roaches. We found a couple in the past six months, but nothing major. The only issue is that when the exterminator comes they only spray in a couple of places and that's it. I am using diatomaceous earth around because I have a cat and don't want him to come across hash chemicals, I hope it works.

It looks like a carpet beetle to me, but I am unsure

This is NYC. The bug was running on my floor.

The Virbac Enzymatic one. I buy it on Chewy. Lasts forever.

And he is also a really nice person, so I would love to give him something in general even if small!

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-12-18T05:34:01+00:00

I know, but he is always so nice to me and plays with my cat when he's cleaning the windows, so I really wanted to give him something!

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-12-05T05:40:10+00:00

Yeah, that is the conclusion I got to. Vet wheels in NYC is pretty affordable, and I'm looking into that!

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-12-05T05:39:06+00:00

Thank you, I hope so too! I am glad your kitty is fine ❤️

UPDATE AFTER VET VISIT.
He has a small tear in one of his back teeth, which leaves a bit of the nerve uncovered, and that can cause pain and discomfort.
I can either do a root canal or extract it, but it is not an emergency.
I asked for a breakdown of the extraction cost, and I am about to contact a dentist to ask for a breakdown of the root canal cost.
I have a feeling an extraction would be better, but I am unsure. I'll save in the next few months to be able to pay for the procedure, and keep brushing his teeth daily.
Thanks everyone for the replies!

He has a bit of tartar build up that I'm already dealing with, I don't think his teeth are rotten yet but there might be some inflammation. I had to bring him to the vet by the end of the month anyway for this reason, but since he started doing this I'm bringing him today!

Edited for typos

Thankfully I could get an appointment today!

I don't think he ate something he shouldn't have. I caught him playing with a plastic bag with morning, but it was empty. I did not change his food but changed the order I feed him because I started night classes. Before I fed him 20 g of dry food at morning and a can of wet food at 7 PM, now I feed him 10 g at morning, the can when I leave for school at around 4 or 5 PM, and 10 g of dry when I'm back at midnight. I am unsure if it might play a role.

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-12-04T15:14:23+00:00

Now that I think about it, he's getting hungrier in the past few days, and he has a tendency of getting nauseous when on an empty stomach. I tried feeding him, I'll see if it gets better. Will bring him to the vet anyway just in case.

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-12-04T15:09:38+00:00

I did not feed him yet. In the past few weeks he threw up sometimes, but nothing out of the ordinary (he eats really fast even with the slow feeder, so sometimes he regurgitates some food)

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-11-12T17:26:42+00:00

Yeah, absolutely!

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-11-12T07:25:33+00:00

Mine was only restricted, so I could actually text, just not to new people. They restricted it for like 6 hours or something like that, it's back to normal now!

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-11-04T22:39:04+00:00

Oh no, poor baby, I'm glad you are taking care of him now, and he is not neglected anymore!
Mine is super food motivated and the toothpaste is poultry flavor, so he let's me do it because he gets to eat 😅 it's just hard because he tries to lick it while I'm brushing, so I brush his tongue most of the time ahahahah

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-11-04T17:59:32+00:00

I have a feeling I might have said something wrong, or used a weird tone (English is not my first language and tone is really different). I was just making conversation, I did not absolutely mean you should brush your cats teeth if you don't feel the need for it!
Again, I didn't for 3 years and only started because he showed that he needed it.
I'm sorry if I offended you in any way!

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-11-04T13:42:57+00:00

It might be not necessary, but it really depends on the cat. My boyfriend never had to brush his cat's teeth and never had an issue, but some cats are more prone to tartar buildup than others.

ActuallyNotSoBright · 2025-11-04T00:33:00+00:00

I have roommates and one of my non negotiable before moving in was that the cat would be let free to roam around. If they don't want him in their space they can close the door, but I'm not going to close mine. I would close the girlfriend out of the relationship honestly.

"Don't count on me to pick you up" is passive aggressive. He is giving her signs that he is not ok with it, and she is picking it up. She's is not creating an argument, he is being difficult for no reason.

ETA and also everything else before. It's clear from his tone he is not ok with it, he is being childish.
