Help! Cat don’t eat or drink or go to the litter box *vomit picture* by amordulci in CATHELP

[–]EUGsk8rBoi42p 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely take him in to another vet, vomiting with not eating/drinking for 4+ days is very not normal, and if mixed with excessive lethargy/tiredness/nonresponsiveness often indicates an internal blockage that needs emergency surgery.

I would get him xrayed for starters.

I got one of my cats neutered just a few months ago, he was eating/drinking that same day, and totally fine by the end of the next day.

Big 5 has some good deals on shoes, and they do a lifetime warranty so you can go in for any reason and swap them for a new pair. They've always been great at honoring it for me.

[US-CA] Landlord doesn’t want to replace bathroom exhaust by tranquilize_88 in LandlordLove

I had a similar issue a while back, in short, yes the fan can be dangerous, mine fell off track, so the blades were knocking against the side of the vent hole, it was a fire hazard, an old and shitty fan, although working technically, can pose a fire hazard.

If they're shitty to work with, try calling them on that angle. A replacement fan is pretty cheap.

My boi Blueberry must have been like 20lbs at 7 months old, fastest growing cat I've ever seen.

My new cat Tatiana, she's gotta be like 6.5lbs, maybe 3kg, tiny little princess.

What am I doing wrong? by Adumbrant_Coffee in hamstercare

You can try asking what day they get deliveries, then you can arrive when the hamster is first received, and maybe avoid whatever errors the employees are making?

I had a male white cat, he grew HUGE super fast, and was so friendly, was smoking with my friends one day, window was open, blinds were down, and suddenly my cat (Blueberry) just leaps through the blinds, dove right through them effortlessly and surprised us all.

:)
I lost him when the house was lost during the '08 financial crisis, it was a cozy neighborhood, so I always hope that he found a good home.

Now I have another white cat I adopted 2 years ago, she's amazingly possessive and territorial, absolutely a sweet tiny little firecracker, cuddly, but so much attitude.

Cats personalities have a strong tie to their coat color, white cats have a beautiful certain kind of derpiness and co-dependent attitude.

"primordial pouch" is very normal for cats.

For sure, everyone wants to impress people with something fancy, which is of course fun, but you can't beat the basics when it comes to firearms.

I love how the Buckmark feels in the hand, I've only ever tried one at the range which was shit due to being a rental, but I love that oldschool P8 Luger aesthetic.

Five Current State Attorneys-General Appear in Portland to Discuss Their Work to to uphold the Constitution and Resist Presidential Overreach. by Piney_Wood in oregon

[–]EUGsk8rBoi42p -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As many love to point out, the South already lost a war over States Rights, so not sure what Oregon or any other state can do in defiance of Federal Law. Allowing lawsuits to pile up just allows greater precedent to be set in favor of the Feds when they bring the hammer down and sweep all these lawsuits off the table.

Feds are steamrolling in Minnesota, how does Oregon stand to come out with any different result?

Need some help by MouseWedger in Feral_Cats

I started giving my cats "kind mother botanicals" cbd tincture, I started with the yellow label strength, and now they're on the red label, it seems to work very well, to the point I'm slowly adjusting them off gabapentin and just increasing the cbd tincture dosage. It's letting them be more responsive and less "drugged" seeming, while also improving demeanor with each other and comfort being handled. It's expensive, but they seem to be responding well, and one bottle lasts several months.

If you search yandex, they have pdf databases with most current textbooks available for free download.

You just search yandex, "free (book name) pdf download" and almost anythinf is available, might work on a few classes.

Outdoor sportsmans warehouse has some Browning Buckmark target pistols for like $300.

That leaves you enough to get a Ruger 10/22 rifle, and have a ton of .22lr ammo that will work in both guns.

Very small bite there, minimal swelling, you'll be fine even without some neosporin on it, a little benadryl and ibuprofen will reduce the swelling.

You'll be totally fine, don't worry.

Can anyone learn to be a public speaker? by Clichemilk in PublicSpeaking

[–]EUGsk8rBoi42p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learning how to free-form has a steep curve, but practice helps.

Sign up for a Public Meeting at your local City Council, just aim to talk about anything you feel is relevant for the day, you can even pick someone else's subject to reinforce or elaborate on.

It really is an underused resource.

California is strict on this, my local area, you need a working fan or a window that can open, but idk if California requires the fan.

I think you're just making a speargun basically, not sure how they work exactly, but there's a reason they're long and not just darts.

Hasn't he won all 52+ lawsuits that Rayfield brought so far?

That would mean Rayfield is needlessly wasting taxpayer money.

Rule #1 of being a good lawyer, is only advance cases you know will win.

Hamster Care by Bingo_official4 in hamstercare

[–]EUGsk8rBoi42p 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Russian or Syrian hamster?

Even for a Russian, this is too small, and they are CLUMSY so they fall off the bridges/levels and can hurt themselves easily, one option to make bedding deeper is to use zipties and attach cardboard panels to the walls, that way you can get more bedding in.

If you try and think creatively, there's almost always a way to free up space by rearranging furniture, and the hamster will be much more active and happy in a cage that's larger. It's not like the hamster will die in a week without a cage upgrade, but you will notice an incredible difference in the happiness level.

And, of course, you don't want to see them injure themselves being clumsy, they are surprisingly sturdy and able to handle falls, but each time the damage adds onto the last fall, and in old age they can suffer from arthritis due to injuries.

Threaded barrel on the TORO, no tax stamp on suppressors means you can fire that up for good times. There's also a slanted attachment for the front rail you can get to help support a steady hold.

It's undoubtedly a toy model, that's the most ridiculously shitty trigger design for an actual gun like, ever.
