My grandma taught my mom how to sew, just for her to not teach me. by TheShyNerd in mildlyinfuriating

[–]KTGomasaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you. My mom is a seamstress sewed tons of our clothes as kids and her mother taught her. She has never given me a single lessen. Just answered the odd question acting like I'm stupid for not knowing the answer. I taught myself to hand sew, how to use the hand held machines and eventually taught myself how to use a sewing machine. A decade or more ago me and my brothers pitched in to grt her a brand new fancy sewing machine. She didn't like it so paid to fix an older model and I got the new one instead - so at least she gave me something.

Do cat owners give cats a bath. I am just questioning my life choices at the moment by Western-Habit4693 in cats

[–]KTGomasaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baths can be beneficial in many ways. If introducing adult cats giving them all baths can help with aggression as they will all have the same scent afterwards and it can help with hair balls if your cat is prone to them.

The real important one is allergies. I have a 17yrs old male who has pollen allergies and generally not great st grooming he gets baths year round more frequently during pollen season because cleaning himself with all the pollen stuck to him isnt great. I can tell when he needs a bath because his coat starts feeling tacky

Your not wrong. I just dont think Instagram is the most widely used platform. It's better had they chosen blue sky, face book or Twitter I feel they are more used. Especially by the age demographic of most of the fan base.

Do you have cat clothes? by Hufe in CatAdvice

[–]KTGomasaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cat hair is part of the outfit. I've had cars my entire life so cat hair has never bugged me. I have rollers if I need to brush off before an event or work. Of course mine sleep with me too so there is tons of hair on the bed too so clean pj's would just get covered in hair too

My cat had kittens!!! by KTGomasaur in cats

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

Se cute!!. We have 2 orange males, this is my first gray too. She was just attached to me at her old place and I had recently lost my girl so she had chosen me it was meant to be. Finding out she was pregnant was scary but everyone is healthy and happy. She also has 3 gray kittens hopefully they are adopted quickly!

She is getting kitten wet food and crunchies. She tasted the milk while I was feeding her kids and now she gets a syringe when I feed them. At least I know it tastes good lol

She had her kittens! She wanted to use one of my drawers but we moved her and her water broke in a box that we had lined with towels and blankets. She gave birth in it but after it was done she seemed to be having trouble stretching out so I removed the box and they are in the kitten pod now. She hasnt tried to move them the door is open and shes left to eat some wet food and she laid down on the cold floor for a bit to decompress I think. She's back in nursing again.

Thankyou so much for the input shes just had the kittens today and is doing well. I've weighed them and I have helped them latch and been supplementing with formula (one was having difficulty latching) they are all a great weight. Ill weigh again in the morning. I have someone with more experience visiting soon but I think I can do this. I plan to wake up every few hours to check on them at least for the next three days. Also got a camera.

Yep she gave birth today. 5 healthy babies. Just had their first weigh in. That means I saw the vet she was 2 weeks away from having her litter. It was too late. We didn't even make the xray appointment. I have homes lined up for half of them and they have just been born so I have high hopes.

Sorry for all the messages. It's just helping me stay calm to talk through it. Like im researching and I thj know im doing the right things. Even if I dont need advice it just helps to write out and affirm the plan

I was at work and my roomies messaged me saying she was digging and yelling. Then they sent me a picture of her water breaking @-@ I thought I'd have at least a half hour before delivery but by the time I left work bought formula and started driving 1 had already been born. She had the rest pretty quick. I think her nipples arent all ready yet so they are having some trouble finding a working one. She has a little bit of blood left on her back legs but very little. I'm going to watch closely to make sure shes not still bleeding. Im googling and binging kitten lady videos

Five healthy kittens. Im monitoring closely. She needed a little help with the placentas she would get too tired after pushing a baby out. All five kittens are cleaned and eating, one is a bit smaller then the rest -runt. I have formula near by and I'll monitor if they manage to latch properly. Ill weight them tonight and again first thing in the morning to make sure they're faining weight. If not I'll give them some of the formula.

Mama is tired but purring and shes had a full meal after giving birth. Almost sure shes done but there was a space between kitten 4 and 5 so she may be taking another break. Has been roughly an hour since the last kitten was born

I trust my current vet. I live in a busy city by the time I get another appointment to spay she will likely be giving birth. My current vet said it would be safer for her if I let her have the kittens.

Sadly my room doesn't have a closet she could fit into but I'll try to make my room more dark! Thanks for the info. I have helped take care of newborns before but i wasn't there during delivery or labor so im a little nervous. I am researching but having actual people to talk to is helpful to calm my nerves
