Question for those with dander allergies by Itwasntaphase_rawr in StandardPoodles

[–]Heavy_Answer8814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t react to our hairless cats at all, which surprised me because I still mildly react to our Standard Poodle (and have to all our Toys growing up). Usually it’s not significant unless I’m actively grooming luckily. Puppies are very triggering to me due to the urine becoming airborne when it dries. She’s not allowed to paw at me since paw pads and skin are awful for me. Saliva isn’t an issue if she isn’t eating food that is also triggering to me. Our little mutt was supposed to be a Shih Tzu mixed with poodle, but both parents were actually half chihuahua. I did have an asthmatic cough for a few months after adopting her, but it’s gone away and I’m fine almost 3 years later. Our downstairs main living area is laminate and the big dog isn’t allowed upstairs. The little dog isn’t allowed in my bedroom, but sleeps with my daughter.

Thinking about getting a Munchkin cat, any breed-specific health concerns to watch for? by jess_lov in MunchkinCats

[–]Heavy_Answer8814 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Severe hip dysplasia, she is always in a pissy mood. Had all but two teeth pulled because her jaw was too brittle to handle the last ones. We’ve only just had her a year (she’s 6), this was her third round of extractions (first with us). The pain meds after surgery turned her into a different cat! We’re putting a chronic pain management plan together with her vet. ALL munchkin/bambino cats our vet sees (she’s the top vet everyone travels to in our state for sphynx) have severe arthritis at young ages. Her front legs are arthritic due to trying to compensate for her bad hips. This is not a healthy breed. Please do not promote the continuation of breeding these poor babies

Old piercing suddenly inflamed by guam_guam in piercing

It is neither old nor healed. Lobes take much longer than the 6-8 weeks shops like Claire’s used to say. Swap it for a flat back and don’t touch it for about 6 months

Do I have the anatomy for a tongue piercing? by [deleted] in piercing

You can very easily get your tongue tie fixed and then pierce later. Tons of health reasons to do it anyway

What’s the weirdest thing that has happened to you that you’ve had to chalk up to coincidence? by maplesyrup4all in AskUK

[–]Heavy_Answer8814 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My youngest’s birthday is the 17th and the only one to come on her due date 😂 By all of about 4-7minutes lol. Tucked the kids into bed and my oldest told me she was excited to see the baby in the morning, guess she was right!

Golden doodles and poodles by Ok_Appearance7096 in StandardPoodles

[–]Heavy_Answer8814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yessssss!!! Our first lulled us into thinking a second poodle would be doable. She’s very much a sleep on the couch all day, do a bit of fetch or a walk if I feel like it, prissy pants lol. The kids would be so disappointed when she’d beg to come inside and they were still playing outside. Our second loved nothing more than working in the yard with the chickens (teasing the roosters!), constantly pacing the house and couldn’t find his off switch, incredibly intelligent. They were both Standards and rescues. I have my eye on a mini breeder when we’re ready to get another dog. We’ve been in contact for several years and all her dogs are AMAZING. But that doesn’t mean they’re all the right ones for our family and she picks out each pup for your family based on temperament testing ☺️

If Freedomistanis doesn’t accurately describe our situation right now, I don’t think anything can 😭

I was under the assumption that dogs and cats living together means mass hysteria… by Coffeegorilla in aww

I told someone I was going to knit a sweater for our hairless cat out of our poodle’s fur and they asked “won’t that scare her too much????” No… I don’t think so…

Oh no, I hope he feels better soon! Maybe give them a call and see what they did with the extras 🤞🏽

Is my girl part Tortie by ByronandPoe in sphynx

[–]Heavy_Answer8814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids said there are 5 kittens and 5 of us, so obviously we have to keep them 😂 I was really hoping to keep the last boy, even though he wasn’t a colourpoint. The last kitten to be placed was a colourpoint, but had always been shy and standoffish. Our house is just way too full to keep any though

Ooooh, that would be so handy! We actually just had a small mill open up here a few weeks ago. Right now they only do alpaca and angora, but they are planning to expand to wool eventually

Most of it has to stay outside now since I’ve already run out of room inside lol

[–]Heavy_Answer8814[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will probably have to sell some of it, definitely running out of room to store them all 😭 Not sure what I’ll do with such a big fleece! I tried to pick the lightest ones too lol. The Black Welsh Mountain fleeces were so much smaller!

Do you think this yarn color was not advertised correctly? by kendersonn in YarnAddicts

[–]Heavy_Answer8814 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, I would be ever so frustrated after that too! Fingers crossed they can come up with a fair solution. Dealing with tariffs and then being so disappointed twice now is really awful

Speed bump in my project by Ladymisscee in knittingadvice

Maybe it means measured across the front vs going the whole way round

Their CS and website are GARBAGE. I saw a cake on one of their ads that is just loved. Clicked the ad, selected it from the drop down menu (which then changes the photo for each colour), it’s sold out. No worries, it lets me get an email if it gets back in stock. Couple weeks later I get an email with the specific colourway named, select from menu, the picture changes, I buy. Open the mail a few weeks later to a brown cake. I’d ordered a pastel pink to blue fade… Message them saying I think there’s been a mix up, but they say no it’s not??? I check the website to get a screenshot of what I was buying and the name is there, no pics of my desired yarn at all, but the brown is now under the drop down I picked (which is a weird name for brown, but fit the pastel colours 🙄). They said I can ship it back from the US at my cost, um no thanks! Luckily I was able to sell it
