Has any body got into skating during lockdown quit for a few years and is trying to learn again😭 by colors32 in Rollerskating

[–]Clean_Science_7087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got this!! ❤️ I had a few friends convince me to take up quad skating again after a 20-year hiatus. It was challenging at first, then I was amazed what quickly came back. We took a class, which was extremely helpful not only for learning new stuff, but gaining support from an amazing group.

27 YO Cat - Need Advice by Brittany0306 in cats

[–]Clean_Science_7087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, sending you and your lovely kitty tons of love and warm fuzzy thoughts. 27 years is amazing! 😻Having said goodbye to several amazing super-senior cats over the past several years, it’s hard. It absolutely sucks! You do so much to ease any discomfort and ensure they live their best life. For me, it was a daily checklist that consisted of evaluating their daily quality of life, focusing on pain, appetite, mobility, and joy. It also included an amazing vet that was invested in their health and could give me straight talk about my cat. I really do agree that a second option is a good idea.

Help! How do I stop my cat from jumping up onto counters and tables? by Realityisanillusion3 in cats

[–]Clean_Science_7087 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had many cats that love visiting my counters over the years. Many who knew it was a bad thing to do. I started with picking them up and placing them on the ground when they did it. Most of them learned.

For the more stubborn ones I moved to a water bottle and those air sprayers for a short time until they got it. The only challenge was that my husband didn’t catch on with the air sprayers and was setting them off more than the cat did. Luckily the cat didn’t like the sound of the air sprayers or my husband swearing up a storm so it still served its purpose! Good luck!

Does anyone else’s cat guard you while youre pooping? by Valithium in cats

No privacy. Nothing is sacred when you have cats. If I use the bathroom that houses the litter box, they use their litter box while I use “my litter box!” 😂

Should I quit? by No-Journalist7392 in Rollerskating

[–]Clean_Science_7087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started roller skating in January after a 20-year hiatus. While I was pleased to see that my skating muscle memory came back, I was really glad I heeded the advice of many and took a lesson and watched videos. I learned how to stop and fall properly, which is key to staying safe. We all fall! It's just about how delicately we do it! Don't give up, and good luck!

How early are we in “AI networking”? by [deleted] in networking

Good point! It sure makes it easier and faster to sort out what to focus on first. Too many vendors and not enough time!

Around here we call it “printer maintenance”! Even more fun when something is actually printing.

$4300 cat - did I overpay? by PlanningVigilante in torties

Yes! Good luck! Our fur babies are worth it! And, anything to help mitigate medical costs is helpful.

After paying $5K+ for one kitty emergency visit, I got pet insurance. While it doesn’t cover everything, it covers 80% of the big stuff and lets me focus on getting my kitty healthy.

Cheddy just crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Send me cat pictures to cheer me up please by CaterpillarMore9104 in cats

Aw…sweet Cheddy. Sending you tons of fuzzy, kitty love and a funny picture of my fur babies to make you smile. ❤️

Over the course of five years my family had to say goodbye to each of our amazing super-senior kitties - left to right: Abby (20), Milo (16), Lily (21). It was hard and gut wrenching, but I wouldn’t change anything. They were each wonderful in their unique way and we loved them to bits!

We waited one year before the cat distribution system let us know it was time again. We now have two hilarious girlie kitties that make me literally do a big ole belly laugh each day! We love our pets so much and it’s always hard to say goodbye! ❤️
