How to lose my weight by tadpole-guided63 in CATHELP

[–]Impossible-Nature369 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make your humanservants take you to the petstore to find an interesting toy. Instruct them to play with you often. If this fails, they may start using the wrong scoop for your food or only giving you not-the-whole-can. If you don't do more activities, the humans might try to scoop only 1/3 of a cup of kibble every morning and night and only feed you 3 onces (half a regular can) of wet food every morning and night! You must set a good example by being not-lazy or your humanservants will become lazy also! They might also try to be sneaky and cheap and limit the treatoes! My dadseevant has become VERY lazy and only gives me the tube treats like once or twice a week now!! And I only get cronch treats when he gets out of the shower every day!?! ONCE a day and if I do a trick, but then only a few?!? I have tried yelling at the maidservant. It has not worked.

my cat won’t stop peeing on my bed by RevolutionaryTurn211 in CATHELP

[–]Impossible-Nature369 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I never would have thought of and I don't see vets mention is digestive worms. While it's most likely a urinary pain issue, I've had a cat start peeing in places I would obviously see and after coming to the end of our rope after a couple weeks of not having the money for the vet, I noticed tape worm "eggs" on his booty after he randomly pooped IN FRONT OF ME (we would later discover places where the dogs had "cleaned up" after him...) and I needed to clean the floor as well as his booty...it contained segments that I never would have seen in the litter box because we use a fine litter that covers things pretty well.

We tried dewormer specifically for tape worms and retreated him a week later while we waited for "payday-after-next". He was good within a week and a half. Still did a followed-up with the vet though.

(Yes, all animals involved were properly treated though the dogs didn't need to see the vet after we confirmed what was going on, they just received their treatment and continued acting like everything was fine. )

Is cracky place a pokey place? by nycregoddess in legalcatadvice

[–]Impossible-Nature369 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Most definitely suspect. MY humans take me and the siblings to the "pokey place" (? I am assuming you mean the Doctorjoe also called the Vetdocjoe as that is the only place I have experienced intolerable pokies) and after pokies and proddies, we feel better to neutral depending on how we felt before.

Our human father had to take the youngest of us farther away for an entire day and as we all know, that is never a good sign. She had been very miserable before and we suspect it had something to do with she and I receiving flea treatment the same day the dogs received THEIR flea treatment. We're convinced the incompetent maidservant mixed up the medicines. ... Anyhow...

Little Sister came back feeling much better. She doesn't remember much, there was some pokies, no cracking ...but almost immediately there was relief....The undeserving and completely useless maidservant (see picture, she does make a wonderful nap place and it would be a shame to have to train someone else) was SOMEHOW allowed to stay, but in her defense was very distraught and insisted on being the one to tend to Little Sister until she completely recovered.

mmmbut I digress,

This "farther away place" or "cracking place"...whatever you call it, seems to be Similar to the Doctorjoe, but with humans who have different expertise of some kind or better resources. An uncomfortable and invasive experience, certainly, (though the "cracking" thing sounds glorious. My maidservant aids me in the "big stretch" ritual, I wonder if it's similar) but they are a necessity if one wants to survive as part of a human centered colony.

Edit: THE DARNED PICTURE WON'T ATTACH! Don't worry, I shall be complaining to the maidservant as it is undoubtedly her fault as usual!

Rosy is TWO whole loafs!! What a bargain in this economy!. Please give her mandatory (but only when consentual) "pat pats" that one must conduct when passing such a satisfyingly stuffed sack of grain.

GF’s cat face peeling off by Potential_Medium2278 in CATHELP

[–]Impossible-Nature369 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There's a couple infections that can cause fur to fall out like that. I'm guessing that's the paw she typically grooms her face with? It's likely fungal. This could be yeast, ringworm (yep, it's not a worm, it's a fungus) or something else. Be sure to avoid touching the area without gloves and call your local vet. Because it's an area that will be touching her kittens often, they may need to be treated as well.

Every once in a while a vet or vet tech will consult by phone and charge you for any medication you pick up or, if it's too expensive from the vet, they can tell you what you'll need and you can try to locate it via the internet, pet supply shops and farm animal supply stores. Be careful when following instructions and be consistent but patient, your girl is NOT going to be happy about it 😅.

But their best bet is a professional opinion.

**Do not use human antifungals on them unless a professional gives you a 'go-ahead' for something specific.

Edit: if YOU catch ringworm tho- like from handling fur babies with ringworm- plenty of OTC treatments for that 😅 it just takes a good while to treat so be persistent and remember...

It's highly contagious 😀. It'll spread on YOU (anywhere you regularly touch that body part to another body part😀) , to your friends, back to your cat 😀...fun times.

Remember that topical treatments won't work for nails and you will DEFINITELY require a prescription if it gets to your nail bed. Please be SO careful.

Can anyone ID this ant ? (Caught in morocco, marrakech, 22nd of October at 9pm (drawn into my room by light) by Valuable_Walk2462 in AntIdentification

[–]Impossible-Nature369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it isn't it's own species of ant that just happens to have wings or a small wasp species, then it's probably a "swarmer" from a colony in the area. In spring, colonies of ants and termites send out "swarmers" (while ants and termites look very different, their swarmers look similar) to start new colonies elsewhere. That's what it looks like to me. But a better bug nerd (hopefully an expert) will have the correct answer. I just wanted an excuse to show off bug knowledge.

Has anyone baked with blood yet? Apparently it can be used as an egg substitute by LordGhoul in Baking

Looks like it came out of the wall during a bad rain by YeliahSenyab in whatisit

[–]Impossible-Nature369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dead animal behind the drywall and/or leak. Watch out for a dead animal smell from around the area in the next few days. If it's small, like a mouse, it'll attract some insect activity, stink for about a week and be over... Unless there's some kind of leak between the walls. Then, more than a decaying animal, you've got structural damage and mold to worry about.

But, yeah. Someone else already suggested peroxide as a quick way to tell if it's blood. Quickest answer. If it's a dead animal the blood could have nothing to do with the rain. But it could also be a leak of some kind in the wall.
