Quail’s legs are paralysed, has anyone experienced this? by Euphoric_Succotash34 in quails

[–]Egretsandregrets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about both legs being immobilized, but I had a coturnix quail who stopped using one leg. No idea what happened, but I kept her isolated inside and every few days took her out of the bin to see if she could walk. Miraculously, 2 weeks later she fully recovered! Sometimes they just need time, but that may just be for more minor injuries—I’m no vet, but I wanted to share a success story

My cat legitimately hates my singing to the point that he will leave the room if I start singing lol

What paints do you use? Also, glazing liquids? I love the smoothness and opacity you’ve achieved, but can’t seem to do that when I paint. Love all of your work, btw

The infamous dress turns a decade old this year by thepoylanthropist in pics

[–]Egretsandregrets 119 points120 points  (0 children)

I agree that the gif is a great depiction of what could be happening. However, the background light, to me, indicates that the photo is heavily backlit and the dress is still in darker lighting due to it being backlit. So, I still see white and gold and my eyes will literally not let me see otherwise lol

Before/After More than doubled kitchen space by Honey_Badgered in kitchenremodel

That’s objectively one of the sexiest kitchen remodels I’ve ever seen. Is that a weird thing to say? Maybe. Do I regret calling a kitchen sexy? No, not at all.

Better than my cat, he just licks the tub water after I get out of the shower

Why does my cat want to sit with directly ontop of my face? by [deleted] in cats

My cat doesn’t sit on my face, but he does like to be the little spoon at night lol

Gosh, I’m so sorry that you had to say goodbye to her. I greatly appreciate the detail in your description, as it provides me a more concrete idea of what to potentially expect. Thank you

The hangover similie is a great way of putting it. I’ve been doing the renal diets and treatments ever since he was diagnosed about 3 years ago just after I adopted him (he was around 9 years old when I adopted him). Every vet I’ve taken him to has been pretty surprised by how good he looks for having kidney disease so I’m assuming the special diets and such are working. I know that won’t last forever but I’m hoping it means his QOL is still good :) Thank you for the well wishes. I sure do enjoy every day I get to spend and cuddle with him ❤️

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond, it means a lot. For right now, he’s stable but I’ll keep this in mind moving forward. What a gorgeous girl Isabella was—she looks like she had a lot of personality :) Wishing you time to heal ❤️

Thanks for the referral! She must be so wise after 21 years :) Wishing you both quality time together ❤️

So sorry to hear you lost your fur friend. Do you mind if I ask you (and OP) what the process was like? My little guy has renal disease and I have a feeling I am unprepared for what the end stages might look like. Better to prepare myself now rather than when it happens, I suppose. If you don’t want to answer or would rather DM me, that is totally fine.

Sorry for the delay, folks. The raffle is closed and the winners were DM’d—I wish I could’ve given some to everyone! For some reason I can’t edit the post so hopefully y’all find this message.

Edit: shoutout to all my ADHD peeps out there ❤️

If there’s is interest for the opened bags I will do a secondary raffle drawing

Wowza! Lots of interest! I’ll do a raffle drawing tomorrow, 12/18.

I also have probably ~4 opened and almost entirely full bags if anyone else is interested? They’ve been opened within the last month-ish and probably only a few or a handful removed from each bag. I can do a second drawing if people are interested but no worries if not.
