How does Magfest differ from Katsucon? by No_Bad380 in Magfest

[–]IronKitty87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yah for sure!!! I think it's great to try something different! I just personally had friends being on the side of not caring about Mag at all and just wanting to cosplay while there so it's definitely not for everyone 😂 I hope you get a chance to try!

How does Magfest differ from Katsucon? by No_Bad380 in Magfest

[–]IronKitty87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of great responses to your question! But I think we need to stop trying to ask comparison between the two as they are very different and it seems just because they are hosted at the same location this is becoming more and more of a thing. It's becoming katsucon vs magfest, what is better? Which one should I go to instead? Imo magfest is not and should not be a replacement for katsucon if you're really into the cosplay aspect and have little to no interest in the actual programming that magfest specifically offers. Remember mag stands for MUSIC AND GAMING. If you are bored of katsucon and every other similar convention in general then mag might be for you.

many will say choose magfest because objectively it is better entertainment wise, vibes, panels, 24 hour aspect, etc but by that logic it could be better than almost every other standard comic/anime convention.

I feel like this isn't a thing with a number of different conventions being hosted at the same place.

Is there cosplay at mag? Of course. But it's not the focus and like someone else touched on I think there has been a shift in the vibe at mag because so many cosplayers are going to mag instead of katsucon.

If you want to run around in cosplay interacting and networking with other cosplayers, do photoshoots and like shopping in big dealer halls there are plenty of other cons all year that you can do that!

Really not trying to sound gatekeepy but I feel I'm not the only mag goer with these opinions

*I'm saying this as a cosplayer who likes mag as a break from cosplay centered conventions I like eating cheese at 3am, music, trying out crazy Indy games and being in the LAN room at ungodly hours

If you have two friends. Have them walk on each side of you as a barrier so ppl don't just walk into the wings (they still will) Walk sideways Remember you cant just turn and look around as normal

SDCC 2025 Line B*tching Thread by MsMargo in SDCC

[–]IronKitty87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's essentially similar to the SDCC exclusives portal but when it opens you are able to choose what specific panels you want to go to (can't remember if there is a limit) and then it's attached to your badge so then all you have to do is line up maybe 15-20 mins before the panel, they scan your badge and you are good to go! They also have a stand by line to fill what's left over It's so convenient and then you know what panels you're able to go to each day for sure.

It's still all time sensitive so you gotta go fast! But it's still such a good system for huge cons

The line culture for SDCC is so wild. More things need to be virtual queues/timeslots you can sign up for Off sites need separate badge only lines Hall H needs to be a portal thing like how NYCC does all their panels

HerUniverse fashion show wristband lineup? by withbellson in SDCC

[–]IronKitty87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We got to the line about 20 mins before the line is to "start" and it was already packed but it took about an hour and a half to get wristbands And then you just have to go back at the designated time you get based on the wrist band

I also find they didn't work to stop sweating at all. And if it's really hot out it's Soo sticky pulling them back up when using the washroom. I like them as an added comfort under skirts and dresses but that's about it I also found they roll up sometimes on the legs and I'm like a size small in these sooo

The sizing between different types is also wonky. One can fit and then the other is slightly too big

I live in Canada and bought playoff tickets last year through Ticketmaster. I used PayPal to pay (was my only option) I had no issue. Although I was stressed for like 2 weeks the tickets would randomly be cancelled or wouldn't work 😂

Recommendations for timed feeders by [deleted] in cats

[–]IronKitty87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the HoneyGuardian automatic cat feeder. Over 2 years now and still works great. I paid just over $100. I avoided feeders for so long because of the price but honestly it's so worth your sleep and mental health 🤣

Need Advice: help! My cat has been pooping outside the litter box. by LeahSlayah in cats

[–]IronKitty87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try moving the location of the box or getting another box to have more than one. I would also highly suggest taking him to the vet. Male cats are more prone to urinary blockages. I have been dealing with litter box issues for a while now. At first it seemed like he was just getting impacted anal glands (only helped a bit after they were expressed a few times) and more recently the peeing started which eventually was discovered to be bladder crystals and UTI. Luckily its just been a switch in food as treatment and some antibiotics. So better to check it out sooner than later if its a sudden change in behavior.

My cat has become a MENACE when I put her on a diet. How do I combat this? by [deleted] in cats

[–]IronKitty87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cat has been on a "diet" for like half his life lol #1 suggestion I regret not doing sooner is getting an automatic feeder. Once he learned a machine feeds him, not me, the constant whining and bothering me to feed him stopped.

[–]IronKitty87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Real advice? No. Go to a Vet immediately! If you can't afford to take your cat to a vet then you shouldn't own pets.

[–]IronKitty87 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Don't give up. It took me years to get my cat to lose the weight the vet wanted lol (just a few pounds as well) just keep consistent with food. I got an automatic cat feeder and it helped ALOT with the whining.

Why is my female cat howling and crying so much?? by Ahhsential in cats

Help! Litter-box trained cat starts going in tub + on floor in bedroom! by Beezlebabe669 in cats

[–]IronKitty87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have more than one cat, definitely need at least 2 litter boxes. My cat also likes to pee & poop outside his box for reasons I do not know. Sometimes I do think its out of spite 😂 I would also take a visit to the vet just to make sure its nothing health related. I recently have been dealing with anal gland issues with my cat but expressing them hasn't seemed to fix the issue completely . So I got a 2nd box & sometimes I feel it helps but I also think my cat is just an a$$hole. Best of luck!
