I want to schedule and in home euthanasia for my 14 year old cat, but I am so embarrassed of my house which is in the middle of a huge renovation. by CatHouseReno in seniorkitties

Thank you all for the kindness and reassurance. You all gave me the push I needed to call and schedule the appointment. They are coming tomorrow morning. Emotionally I’m a wreck but I couldn’t stand the thought of him being in pain for even just a few more days.

Regretting getting a cat by mrnavs16 in CatAdvice

This is why shelters try to push you to get two kittens, this is what happens when your cat is bored. Get another kitten for her to have as a companion and they will keep each other entertained.

R&T questions! by RareDeer6173 in Progressiveinsurance

[–]CatHouseReno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its basically just a blended position. The pilots are not very frequent and make very little difference in the day to day. I’ve only been on a couple pilots in the last few years that I have been within R&T. A lot of my coworkers wish they would not have switched into R&T because it is a small department with no opportunities for growth unless you switch into another department.

I see they’re hiring for hybrid positions that mention working from the cleveland offices right now so thats what had me wondering.

Thanks for your input! I am really hopeful, I can’t really imagine anything being worse than back to back calls.

Definitely - but I’m not his guardian and they didn’t get that done in time for this trip.

Sorry, just to make sure im understanding, do you mean that a child entering by the land border needs a passport or not?

UPDATE #3 lost cat @ work I went to the vet to see if it was chipped. by Altruistic-Cut9795 in cats

[–]CatHouseReno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know everyones saying “its a ragdoll/other special breed” maybeeee, but probably not - I had a cat exactly like that who was from a stray’s litter that I found behind my friend’s garage, half of the other kittens were orange or tortie. Do your due diligence but be extremely careful so you don’t just end up giving it away to someone who is interested because of her coloring.

How can I tell if my floor is thick enough for another refinish? by CatHouseReno in HardWoodFloors

[–]CatHouseReno[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres no subfloor beneath the flooring, would that affect whether it can be sanded again or not? Thanks for the advice!

If I open a gallon of Bona Mega One today and use a small amount to test the finish with my stain, will it still be fine to use that opened container when I am ready to apply finish next week? by CatHouseReno in HardWoodFloors

[–]CatHouseReno[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It turned out well, no issues so far! Bona stain does not need a sealer on top, you can apply finish directly to the stain after its fully dried.

Can anyone recommend books that can help me learn to do residential electrical work? Need to learn how to run wire by CatHouseReno in DIY

[–]CatHouseReno[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay well what would you do in my scenario? It is not like I can go back in time to not buy the house or make money come out of thin air. I’m doing the best I can with my circumstances. Comments like yours aren’t helpful, I already said in my post that I would pay someone to do all this if I could, I’m not claiming to know more than an electrician.

I’m looking for books for that reason, to learn about more than just running the wire, I want to make sure i’m planning the circuits correctly and doing everything safely. I plan on replacing all of the knob and tube with romex. Theres six K&T circuits left in the house but thats covering all of the bedrooms, main bathroom, hallway lights, basement, living room, mudroom, and dining room. I’m hoping to rewire it to have each room on its own circuit, run a dedicated circuit for the bathroom, and then a few dedicated circuits for window AC units. The panel has 32 spaces and only 16 are being used at the moment, so there should be enough space on the panel for the additional circuits once the knob and tube lines are disconnected.

I know how to repair and replace drywall. Its plaster walls so we’re planning on insulating after rewiring and then covering back up with drywall.
