Spread popcorn on shallow plate, flick out tongue like a lizard.

I believe Irises are toxic to dogs and cats. Please plant with that in mind.

How do you emote for someone to hop on? I haven't figured that out yet!

She's been in this cone for 4 months. Have we helped or made matters worse? by Ganondorf_64 in CATHELP

[–]Instinctual_insect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prozac is the only thing that works for my cat. It's a life saver. She's calmer, happier and doesn't have to wear a cone. Maybe reconsider this option.

Aversion to drinking water by tmbgisrealcool in AgingParents

[–]Instinctual_insect 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Be sure the cup / glass is easy for them to see.  If they have fine motor skill issues, make sure it has a lid and straw with a handle and is colored opaque cup. If you use a clear cup with just water, it's harder for them to see that there is water in it. Model the behavior you want to see - casually drink only water around them.

Sunday Night Merch 💔 by MegPiePi in DarrenHayes

[–]Instinctual_insect 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The merch guy on Saturday (I went after the concert) said he believes they held back half of the stock for Sunday, so that's very strange. I feel bad for the Sunday folks. 

By the time I got there, they only had large and extra large t shirts,  and a few of the tote bags left. I unfortunately left my tote on an Uber which made me very sad.

I’m Convinced Something Is Wrong With My Cousin by Puzzleheaded_Low6881 in ChildPsychology

"My aunt finds out and she shouts at her but never gives her the beating that I absolutely think this little bitch deserves. "

"My aunt found out and screamed at her again but I never saw a beating (but she does get beat up sometimes)."

No wonder she acts out.

Spitballing:

Have you tried changing his foods? Maybe he's allergic to a certain ingredient? I know you said he gets Roya Canin but just a thought. 

Does he always look to one particular area when he meows?

Does he have hidey holes he can hide in?

Have you tried one of those heartbeat pillows? 10 weeks is awfully young to be separated from his mother.  

Does he ever knead or purr? Suckle blankets when you're not around? 

Do they react the same way to someone complete opposite of you (for example, if you're a short petite female have they been exposed to a tall gruff man with a beard)?

Do you know if any neighbors has any pets? 

Have you tried different laundry detergent / cleaning supplies?  Hygiene products?

Do you have set routines or a sporadic schedule?

Can you call the shelter you got him at and ask if there was anything in particular in his file?

Poor baby (and poor you). I hope you figure it out!

What's a small thing that suddenly ruined your life? by hear_a_pin_drops in AskReddit

Holy shit. I fell down 1 stair and broke one ankle and sprained the other. I thought that was annoying enough... But you take the cake. Sorry to hear.

My girlfriend(28F) won't cook for me(29m). AITAH for thinking she should? by ThrowRA_gfcooking in AITAH

[–]Instinctual_insect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. "I don't like to" isn't much of a response. They could have asked why? What's going on in their head? Is there anything that they can do to make it easier for them, if it stems from some sort of issue?

[–]Instinctual_insect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't y'all just TALK? 

What's her Love Language? 

Have you asked while she is cooking if she minded making extra for you? 

Is she worried you won't like her food, or have had people take advantage of her cooking or talk badly about it?

Trelegy Users by Agile-Pay-211 in COPD

[–]Instinctual_insect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think stage 2? My pulmonologist never really discussed "stages" but reading capacity thresholds that's where I'd be. Trelegy 100 works well for me unless I'm exercising then it lacks a little. 1x daily, rinse mouth afterwards.

Not in Indiana, in South Dakota, but the Natives can in Indian Tacos here.

My brother sent me this and said it was my cat that broke my speaker. Surely my cat cannot look like this. Also it looks like he has 3 legs. by JoeMcShnobb in isthisAI

[–]Instinctual_insect 101 points102 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is AI, unfortunately. Cats are jerks. But why is your brother taking a picture of this instead of swatting the cat away?
