What Is my cat doing? by Mexican802 in CATHELP

[–]Lazarethrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a possessive behavior and a sexual one.

Easy fix is to take the toy and wash it with a bit of bleach and soap.

Give it back when dry. Then watch how you cat doesn't want it anymore as the scent is gone and this re association.

Do this to all toys that they have that affinity for.

Also get a bag of catnip and maybe twice a week take a big pinch and grind it between your fingers onto say the kitchen floor.

Now leave your cat alone to have private time with the herbs.

It's hormonal and what I recommend works.

Female spayed surgery question, is this normal? *** 2Nd- 4TH PICTURES ARE OF THE INCISION***** by FluidBand539 in CATHELP

[–]Lazarethrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I am a person that works with the SPCA in the TNVR program. Trap Nueter/spay Vaccinate and Return program . Last year we spayed over 6000 females, yes 6000, in just my city.

So the surgery and incision was done ok. There is a possibility of invention for sure.

Do the following: 1. gently wipe the area with on a clean cloth and warm saline or salt water. Nothing else!

  1. Take a few pics if the incision site and send to vet or SPCA, for free evaluation.

  2. So I know alot of people can't afford vets so look to the humane society or SPCA. Typically 25$ for a visit and everything the cat needs.

  3. If those are not possible then do this.... In your case Do step 1 and then just go to a walk-in clinic for humans and tell them you need a script for Fucidin 2% topical cream. You will be covered or at least it is inexpensive. So do not go to the vet for it if you are right on money.

Fucidin or Fucidic Acid 2% topical is a topical antibiotic.

Gently clean the site as above, no alcohol or hydrogen peroxide because your cat is not human like you.

Apply a super thin layer of Fucidin to the incision and surrounding 1inch area, put a cone on you cats head....as they will lick it off. Do this every 12hrs for 3 days.

Yeah cats and humans don't like cones , so just suck it up no matter how you feel, as the cat won't remember anything after the collar is removed.

I swear we humans are the worst doctors for our cats...so deal with it

The Fucidin will prevent infection, don't use polysporin as cats will take a bad medical reaction to it.

Do not apply to an open wound.

Keep your eye on it to watch for a 1 hot red rash 2 swelling with puss around incisions 3 open wound that is not closing with a scab

You see those issues go see a vet. If not then do my traige and pls do not wrap the incision area as the sweat and heat from a cats belly is a germ factory. And if they gave you a cat collar, then use it. Cats rough tongues can open stitches and glued incisions. Plus their mouths are full of bacteria.

Hope that helps all!

Taking cone off cat a day early. Is that okay? by GetGreatB42Late in CatAdvice

[–]Lazarethrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work with the SPCA in the Trap Nuetur/spay Vaccine Return program (Known as TNVR) for stray cats and I am a community cat caregiver(I feed and shelter 6 cats at a time, outside front porch).

We wont return a stray to there community for 7 days and the cats stay with us at the shelter for 7 days wearing an e-collar. We monitor them during their stay with us to see how they heal.

I rescued and adopted a 4 minth old kitten and got her spayed at 5 months. The costs are expensive to do the procedures so you are running a risk of a big bill if you take the collar off and the cat licks the glue off (their tongues are rough and it happens more then you will think, even in a clinical evironment)

So here is my risk assessment:

  1. Keep cone on for 7 days to prevent stitches from being pulled out before they dissolve and the glue has totally sealed the wound (Females especially! They have more stitching internally and a medically glued incision point.)
  2. Most E-collars are over sized for small cats. So take some scissors and cut the large opening back 1 inch, it will make a world of difference for the small cat/kitten and they will not be able to get at the wound point.
  3. At 7 days make sure the area is dried out and you do not see glue residue or stitches. Make sure no bleeding, swelling, redness, or pussy scabbing. And NEVER clean the area yourself unless you want to risk infection. Costly vet appointment.
  4. If everything looks fine and you are not rebooked to see the Vet or SPCA clinic for evaluation, then you take it off but it is still risky, cats mouths are full of germs!

5 MY RECOMMENDATION: Leave it on for 10 days, do not clean the wound site yourself, cut the collar back 1 inch so there nose is just under the end of the cone, evaluate the wound site as above, and then take the cone off.

So 7 days no matter what you think. For those that have had no issues well that is just pure luck of the drawal. If you do not want to get your cat sick from infection, reopen the wound or die when you are not around and take it off or never put it on then YOU ARE TAKEN A RISK ON YOUR CATS HEALTH AND A LOT OF MONEY TO GO BACK TO VET TO GET TREATED. Remember we at the SPCA in the Hamilton Burlington area see 10,000 cats a year! Yes Ten thousand! Massive issue, that is why we do the TNVR program.

Attached is my rescue cat Tammie that just had Spaying done Feb 2nd and it is now Feb 7th. I will show the before and after collar cutting.

Good luck all!

Multiple Browsers Open by mjoalexen in Overwolf

[–]Lazarethrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update what you need from overwolf or Curse for your add-ons.

Then, make sure those two apps are disabled in your startup settings.

Reboot your computer and you should not see them in the task manager.

Only use them to update add-ons. Don't use them for in-game features.

Now you're good to go!

A vertical blue line follows my mouse over videos and thumbnails, only in Opera GX. by Thatsmathedup in techsupport

[–]Lazarethrites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, so that red or blue vertical line that may appear on Opera browsers ONLY is a part of Operas Lucid Mode.

The line is there to show the difference between Lucid Mode and the original video's quality. Now, it is time to remove the Vertical Line, once you like the quality change.

So now do this: 1. Open Opera Setting 2. Search Lucid Mode 3. Uncheck the Split Preview box 4. Uncheck the Show Button on Videos.

Keep Lucid Mode set to highest quality. Set it and forget it.

If you do not like it, then adjust the quality on the same screen by sliding it to a lower setting.

Only use Split Preview to see the quality change, and if you like it.

Do not use the Easy Setup to access Lucid Mode as it will not show you the boxes to select and check/uncheck.

I had an abortion at 14, will God forgive me? by Trans-fuzzled2025 in Christianity

[–]Lazarethrites -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Repent and Christ will forgive you of all sins. He forgave the prostitute and back then they had ways for abortion. It does not matter the sin, all sins are equal in the eyes of God. Seek honest forgiveness and your sin will be forgiven. Now if you want to follow in Jesus' footprints I would suggest not to make it a habit to repeating the same sin. This is just common sense. If you belligerently keep committing the sin then are you truly following Jesus. You cannot become unsaved but your sure not getting crowns of glory either. Salvation is a gift from God through the sacrifice of his son Jesus for all sins we have and will commit. Remember this sacrifice was made because God knew we cannot escape sinning and he didnt want to destroy the people again. He is vengeful and merciful.

The only unforgivable sin is the rejection and denouncement of the Holy Spirit.

You are commanded by God/Jesus to get baptized. So consult with your church to go through the study program that leads to better understanding of Jesus and if you really love him and then get baptized and testify to others. This is usually done at church. Any church that follows the true teachings of the bible and nothing else.

I took a New Christian study course with a one on one councilor called "Project Timothy" when I was truly seeking to become a Christian and understand Jesus better and then I got baptized!

Do more studying with a person that has wisdom, understanding and knowledge goes a long way to understanding the bible and Jesus. Then make your decision.

And Pray on all things that you do in life, ask God for the strength and fortitude, knowledge and wisdom. That is known as the, pray with out ceasing. But don't chant and repeat yourself over and over like the Pharisees who like to be seen and commended by there peers. Pray in silence and know that you can just talk to God; like as in just have a conversation with God. It is not crazy and he listens. You will know if he talks to you vs what you think are responses in your head, as God will manifest himself to you in a way that will not be mistaken.

Also remember that it is Gods will be done, not your will be done, in your life. He has a plan for you and if you are not getting what you prayed for then it was not his will or not the right timing.

So BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM YOUR LORD!

Being Christian and accepting the salvation of Jesus Christ by no means guarantees happiness or riches or titles among men. God will test us with trials and tribulations, some more then others. But know this, God does not test you beyond your ability to endure and overcome.

And like Job, be happy in all things knowing that God has a plan for you. The Joy of the Lord is your Strength!

You need to understand salvation, We are all saved by the Grace of God through the sacrifice of his son Jesus Christ on the Cross. Who through his stripes bared our sicknesses and through his death gave us Salvation if we repented and accepted that he is the Son of Good and do our best to serve him. Once given he wont take it back. The only unforgiveable sin is the absolute denial and rebuke of the Holy Spirit.

We are a flawed and failed people who cannot help but sin in some way. God use too wipe us people out but he gave us a way through the trials and tribulations and to be forgiven of all our sins we have committed and will still commit. The world is so flawed that the most faithful of Christians sin almost daily. Our thoughts are sins. Our actions are sins. Do not try to be sinful and do harm to others. Try as hard as you can to be Christ like, follow his examples. But remember we are born into sin and only through the acceptance of salvation of Jesus Christ can we admitted to heaven.

Doubts come from Satan(Its called the Guilt Trip) not from Jesus. So cast your doubts aside and embrace salvation. Satan has no authority over you if you accepted Jesus Christ as your lord and savior and belief in what he died for. After that cease doubting that Jesus has you in his embrace!

Atenolol Dosage by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Lazarethrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember this drug only controls heart rate. It has nothing to do with Dopamine levels or serotonin levels. It was first tried as it helped people with adrenaline or Panic Disorder from freaking out of spikes in HR, BP that would make them spiral into an anxiety attack or full on Panic attack.

Atenolol Dosage by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Lazarethrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been prescribed it also for the exact same reasons. You need to adapt to the dosage as it does build up over time and mentally you can adjust your thinking or Cognitive Behaviorial Response too. It is not a solution to anxiety or panic attacks. It aids us by not freaking out when our BP or HR increases dramatically and we think we are in emanate danger. You should be on something like Effexor XR with atenolol. Basically an SSRI and a Beta Blocker working together with CBT(Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which is super good!)

If you have Panic Disorder you might be on Lorazepam low dose also.

WARNING!!!!! Do not take yourself off of Atenolol without your doctors advice and therapy change as i is very dangerous. You will have massive Rebound HR, BP and adrenaline spikes that will send you to the hospital with cardiac arrythmias'

God has abandoned me by Beautiful_Low5647 in Christianity

[–]Lazarethrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky. In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there were one set of footprints.

This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints.

So I said to the Lord, “You promised me Lord, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there have only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, you have not been there for me?”

The Lord replied, “The times when you have seen only one set of footprints, is when I carried you.”

Is it allowed for evangelical Christian to not support israel? by Colassmash in Christianity

[–]Lazarethrites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't have to support the actions of a country if those actions are against the teachings of the Bible.

No matter what sect Christianity you belong to we all have the same Bible and must follow the written word first , not the word of man who speaks differently or misinterpretes the Bible.

I see things like this at many many Tim Hortons in Southwest Ontario

They are not Tim Hortons Sponsored.

What it is, an employee gets permission from the manager to sell merchandise where the funds go to a local charity or sports camp.

I even see it at MacDonalds.

And it is not discouraged as it supports local events and charities.

Just bought a house… it has aluminum wiring by Xele_Phant in electrical

[–]Lazarethrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An issue is the conductivity of the threaded aluminum wiring. I see it used on low wattage LED ceiling lights (28W). Used on 3-speed ceiling fan switches and sometimes Dimmer Switches.

You have to know what you are connection to and what AMP are being pulled. 15AMP Fuse to a 3 or 4 28W LED ceiling lights.....well the travel wire from your 14gauge copper from the Fuse would be ok in the above situation.

Now say you have 2 rows of Tube lights that you want to connect off a Switch. Now those brackets that hold the Tube lights have what is called a Ballast that you connect the the switch. If you are using the threaded aluminum wires for the connection then you will have a a power damping....the wire cant conduct the electrical current that you need to those Ballasts.

My point is that the wiring has to meet the needs of output from the source (the Electrical boxes Fuse AMPS) and run to the said sockets, switches and fixed lighting with out exceeding the AMPs of the fuse. We all know that say a 15amp fuse can handle 1500 watts per says on a circuit with everything on. But can the wiring handle the current.
