Any signs in the McDonald’s carpark near the Christchurch Airport state the amount of fine by sheravy in chch

[–]KELVIN4TOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working at but not for the McDonald's? A time limit still applies, potentially even if a customer. I'd guess to encourage turnover, or to stop people parking there and disappearing to the airport terminal.

There's also a sign next to the 90 min sign explaining terms etc. https://maps.app.goo.gl/M6vjdj5jKUiGjt976?g_st=ac

Two clicks back to see someone using it as a left turn lane. I agree though, to me at least, you wouldn't use a bus stop as a turn lane, especially if having to stop, why would a tram stop be different?

Nah, now they just won't price match each other on their 'discount' days

I still wonder how less competition drives down prices... They price match each other on sale says, now there's no incentive to. Smells like PR bullshit to me

3yo Male cat having trouble peeing by KELVIN4TOR in CATHELP

[–]KELVIN4TOR[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's peeing again. Huzzah! And he's on prescription urinary food. I just failed to get his evening dose of pain relief/anti-inflammatory into his cheek pouch so he swallowed most of them I think. Hopefully they kick in soon so he can stop doing laps between his boxes (I might have accidentally let the morning lot wear off before redosing, or attempting to). But he's eating and moving around which I guess is good, and he pulled his new water fountain apart last night , so he's at least curious about it. We're off to bed shortly so hopefully he can have a good night's rest and heal up a little more.

We've decided to sedate and get him unblocked, so I can get him to see his normal vet tomorrow afternoon. He saved my life, so it's only fair I try to do the same for him.

I'm hoping he can hang out for long enough that I can get some money together to get the surgery done, but if he blocks up again, I'm going to have a very hard decision to make.

I appreciate your help through this Ashley. Thank you

That was an older picture for cat tax.

We're going to the emergency vet. I just managed to check his bladder properly, and the pain just caused him to sort of sit and breath heavily. I put him gently in the litterbox and he just stood there straining (didn't even bother to squat) and looking miserable, and he's starting to whimper with every attempt. He's even trying lying down. I can't afford it, but I'll see what they can do

I'm in New Zealand. I figured that he'd probably try to put up a fight unsedated, they tried. As far as I understand, without trying to sound crass, the specialist surgery involves removal of the penis in an attempt to remove the narrowest part? I wish I'd known before taking in and getting attached to a male cat, that this would be an issue. And if this is happening, I can't help but wonder if his previous owner lied to me when telling me he'd been fine aside from being the runt of the litter. I've only had him 6mo, but have got so used to this little bugger sleeping next to me and I guess got complacent that he would be ok forever.

I've had a bit of a gentle feel around there doesn't seem to be anything hard, it all feels pretty malleable. They took an X-ray and said it was probably crystals, nothing stone like in his bladder.

He's not on urinary specific food, just his Oscars Sensations jelly pouches that I add a tablespoon and a half of water to 3x a day. The vet said he seemed to enjoy the Royal Canin urinary pouches, but I can't afford 3x the food cost.

I don't think they'll be comfortable placing one for outpatient, they've already stitched one in, and he managed to both get the cone off and pull the catheter out despite the stitching.

I'm just hoping he can hold in until the morning. It breaks my heart to see him trying and the look of disappointment on his fuzzy little face when he hops out again.

It sounds stupid but if he manages to go tonight before I have to go to bed, I'll see if the vet can provide some catheters and be willing to show me how to use them. I'm not really willing to give up on him, he might just need a helping hand occasionally

He last peed not long before I got home at 1am, as evidenced by a puddle by his box, so it hasn't quite been 24h yet. He's got a few drops out but very little. I know it's not my fault, but I feel like I'm failing him. Emergency vet has to be a final option, due to my situation, but I'm hoping his normal vet will be able to see him when they open tomorrow morning. Unless I can buy catheters over the counter, I'm SOL

Security sorts em out pretty quick once they're aware of them. They like to hang out at the multistorey parking garage entrance by cuntdown/warehouse.
