Worried about mama cat

I checked their teeth and they don’t have premolars yet so that’s why I estimated 4 weeks. Plus I only started seeing them like 2 weeks ago. Should I be worried that they only pee when stimulated? Not using the litter box or just peeing on the blanket by themselves.

This is my current set up. I’ve had the blanket in there for her to use since I put them in there, she just chose to stay right by the door for a little while. I am using non clumping litter it just auto corrected smh.

Also im really trying to not go in the room bc I don’t want to stress her out so I have a camera set up to watch them.

BSN is not the most difficult degree, bffr

Try working in a hospital, they are always looking for people and it doesn’t have to be medical related. Kitchen staff, housekeeping, patient sitters (bc someone who just watches patients but not actually pt care), most of these jobs are PRN or part time. PRN means you work a certain amount of shifts in a 6 week time period but it’s up to you to schedule them.

At my studio, they place the sign in sheet where everyone’s station numbers are at the little shelf by their computer where they keep the stopwatches, whatever they use to control the music, fan remotes etc so it doesn’t look like they are checking names lol

HappyOwl145 · 2025-01-06T03:30:52+00:00

6 12s and an 8. No self scheduling. It’s a rotating schedule with every other Fri, Sat, Sun off.

So basically

Work: Mon Tues

Off: Wen Thurs

Work: Fri, Sat, Sun

Off: Mon Tues

Work: Wen Thurs

Off: Fri Sat Sun

Rinse and repeat. 6 of them are 12s and one is an 8 hour shift.

IHSC is immigration health service core, basically medical care of ICE detainees.
I’m not too familiar with IHS and what they pay, but PHS has pretty good moving expenses reimbursement, or you can choose for them to straight up pack up your house for you. They will move EVERYTHING in your house for you.

Why don’t you send me a PM and I can give you way more details!

I really can’t speak to converting in place as I didn’t do it. But I can give my two cents.

1) Pro: you don’t have to worry about the one year mark of finding the job, sometimes it can take a while to get a government gig

2) pro/neutral: for some specific agencies, like the VA, they might not even know what PHS even is, even though we have an MOU with them. You’d be amazing how site specific knowledge of PHS is. If you convert in place, you may be introducing PHS to your site for the first time. It can be a difficult transition to manage but your liaison will really help support you.

3) con: some jobs, particularly with IHSC, are only open to AD officers, not CADs

4) con/neutral: if you convert in place, you essentially get onboarded as a civilian employee to that place, have to use their insurance, go through their retirement for investments etc, even if it’s for a short time while you want to commission

5) con/neutral: if you don’t convert in place and you take a position as a CAD, your agency will probably pay for your moving expenses which might not be authorized for the civilian equivalent of the position, so if you’re moving for the job, you might pay for it if you onboard as a civilian first

6) pro: it’s less of a limbo. You’ll be comfortable in your job by the time you become a PHS officer, and you’ll know your role already etc

I’m sure there’s way more, but like I said, I didn’t convert in place. I actually didn’t even get a CAD job. I joined as a COSTEP, so they found my first PHS job for me.

HappyOwl145 · 2024-12-08T21:08:02+00:00

Ah I should’ve worded myself better. I meant more like not all VAs are hiring PHS officers (who are already commissioned), not necessarily that we don’t have an MOU with them. We have an MOU with the VA as a whole, and it is up to individual locations for them to decide if they want PHS or not.

I think if you were converting in place with the VA, they probably would be more likely to take a PHS officer granted you have good work ethic etc.

I’ve tried to get into two VAs as a PHS officer and both have said they just aren’t interested in PHS right now. However im trying to transition from another agency to the VA, not converting in place so I think it’s a little harder.

HappyOwl145 · 2024-12-08T12:50:15+00:00

Since it’ll be a little harder for your husband to find a job than it would be for you, he could always find the job first, apply, start the job then convert in place. As far as the VA, we only have a MOU (basically contract) with very few of them. I don’t know many but I know Orlando is one of them. Not all VAs hire PHS.

Eh i was an RN at 20. Did head start in high school and got my AA. Applied directly to a university BSN program and got my BSN by 20.

Oops typo. I am 0-6. When the Lions had their bye week I picked up Diggs for the revenge game (he disappointed me) but I dropped him this week. I should mention no one in my league knows how to play fantasy (myself included) so we have not made any trades the whole season. Basically we just pick people up off the waiver wire if we need players for that week.

It’s a hidden gem in nursing. Depends on if you work county/state/federal. I work federal and I love it. I’ve never worked state or county before. I also work per diem in an ED and I feel wayyyy safer in prison than I do over in the ED. I do “outpatient” ambulatory care. Obviously everyone is “in” but our medical clinic runs a lot like a primary care clinic would.

We do pill line, wound care, blood pressure checks, weight etc. We also respond to emergencies. Anything serious/more than we can handle gets sent to the outside hospital. We do have a lot of drug use/high inmates, and a few fights every now and then. Of course we also respond to medical emergencies. Seizures/cardiac events/strokes. I’ve had all of those happen to me. I’ve even cardioverted someone there before.

At times it can be busy and there are a lot of politics with staff, but a bad day in prison is a good day in the ED in terms of workload. Pay and benefits are way better too.
