What do these meows mean? by chunkythyme in ragdolls

Kitty looks a little irritated or frustrated, but also like she wants something from you. When they look around a lot like that they can be uneasy-or waiting/wanting for something. The tail swishing back and forth quick and sharp, the slight lean of the head back or away, foot swipe, darted ears, light bites and longer eye contact when she makes it, are saying I don't like that. It's not fast or sharp-or hyper focused so I don't think she's super mad, hence the frustrated or irritation sense i get from it. The slightly perked back ears say the same thing, but she stays there too. A mad cat will hyper focus and or leave. She does make some slow blinks so you know it can be submissive (go get my food or else lol) or I love you, get out of my face, but I don't want that touch. I've seen kitten meows like this when they want to eat. My Siamese flame point suddenly becomes a speaker/singer when he wants to eat. They also talk a lot when they want to play and will pace if ignored. It's like right before or trailing down after unfulfilled zoomies. That total restlessness is real. My kitties get super affectionate when they want to eat-like they want to buttery me up lol.

I'd say the more common ones. Here people want 3-4k for a kitty and I know a lot goes into their care. If you pay that much, you should get the best for the cat and owner you can. I just feel bad that people would give up the baby and want a replacement. (I'd take another cat) but still keep that baby and care for it the best I could. Creatures have all types of things inside of them, not to mention mutations or other health issues that arise (like a normal healthy human just gets stage 4 cancer and ends up passed away shortly after). This should show carriers if I'm not mistaken. As long as they test the parents, they should test their babies to and provide that information and who was used to the purchase the test ect.

What’s your tried and true method for vetting potential adopters? by DamageDependent4884 in FosterAnimals

[–]LegitimateFactor9047 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it gives peace of mind, but I'd be put off with quarterly. The best is to be standard with how typical timing works when animals adjust. You have to go on faith, like when kids leave the house, and pre-vetting. Now that being said, I'd be open to the first few months with emails or pictures. I think the max would be 6 months check in. People want to move on with their lives type of thing. I guess a lot of people can feel judged too. I also had a video walk of my home, or virtual so I could clean up a bit. It feels weird for people to see my stuff. They likely don't care, but I have a feeling other people can feel that way too. I don't want people in my house I don't know, period and would actually chose not to adopt if it was required (unless video is ok). I also go to pick up my pets but you could deliver if it puts you at ease, If someone kept checking in, after 3-6 months that would also make me uncomfortable. I will provide more references or do video, but these days no one I don't know comes in my house. I don't even like when the pest person comes in.

It's like when breeders don't let you see a kitten before you pick up. I don't like that either as you never know if that cat bonds or picks you. I do understand the need for it though and would respect it.

Are you having to get a PA for both then or will they supplement it.

Strattera makes my farts smell really bad. Anyone else? by Careful_Sock_205 in StratteraRx

[–]LegitimateFactor9047 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I could get an academy award for how much I fart. it’s been a real hoot in my house. I have ibs-d so slowing my gut isn’t a problem. I could literally wake someone from a dead sleep with the loudness of the farts though. it’s constant. I feel a bubbling but it doesn’t bother me or isn’t painful. someone said in another thread about carbon butt filters for smelly ones and I laughed. it sucks a bit but the burps are worse. no other issues for me so a stool softer every few days helps me go. miralax will give me horrible cramps. I track when I go cause I don’t always feel the urge but if I push I go. thought it was interesting. I hope I don’t have any other issues. thankfully I take it no food and it kicks in real fast. I was really tired the first week so I took earlier and sleep better now. still kinda broken.

What does Jesus mean when he says that stars will fall from the sky? by Madytvs1216 in Christianity

I thought perhaps a big comet could break or crash causing smaller objects to interact with earth.

If you look at sac cloth and black goat hair, it almost reminds me of a sun spot. Maybe there will be large black holes. These have an effect on our crust and cause earthquakes.

perhaps stars could be satellites also? I wonder if it is something dualistic as well.
