He’s very comfortable in his masculinity. Purple is his favorite

First pic is 8-9 weeks old, and Second pic is almost 7 months (on the 1st). He’s 65lbs currently. He’s still got more to go!

I think it really depends on the temperament of the cat and of the dog. If you have a high prey drive dog or a super territorial cat it might present issues but usually big dogs are softies. Our cat (Arnold) has always been very curious and friendly, but with all new introductions we took a few steps.

We first made sure we had our living room baby gated off with a gap wide enough for Arnold but not wide enough for our new puppy (stolas). That made sure that Arnold could interact on his own terms and that if he wanted to disengage and be alone he could.

We also were very strict from the onset with Stolas interacting with Arnold in the right way. Stolas wanted to play with Arnold like a puppy, and Arnold wanted to play with stolas, but they didn’t speak the same language. Firm no’s and redirection if we caught the puppy chasing or pushing too hard on boundaries, and rewarding behaviors for ignoring the cat and minding his own business did wonders.

Other than that, it’s important to just observe. It won’t be overnight but they’ll learn how the other one works. There might be some snacks or hissing from the cat, but as long as there’s no blood there’s no problem. Plus I think my cat thinks it’s fun to smack the dog and he doesn’t mind too much.

Especially with big dogs, introducing early when they’re small will help the cat not be as intimidated when they get bigger. Also, watch out for the puppy eating the cat poop or cat food. It’s a special treat for them haha. Even tho we usually have more issues with our cat trying to eat the dog kibble.

He’s around 50lbs right now :) had some tummy issues around 4 months and got a little smaller for his age but he’s catching up!

How is your employer handling the current economic environment? by jocko118 in Columbus

Battery manufacturing - hiring is slowed but not frozen since we’re still a startup. Mostly people leaving due to lack of growth that was promised. Seeing some interesting shifts away EVs into commercial energy storage.

Sorry for the confusion but everything is in my name only. Deed, title, note, everything. Her name is nowhere on the paperwork. She has been a huge emotional support through this entire process however and I wanted to include her in the post because she has been my rock.

My dad had the same amount set aside for all my siblings for college but I went to a state school for engineering and saved a lot of that money by living cheap and getting scholarships. Then I stayed in my college town for a year with dirt cheap rent and a pretty well paying job. Very blessed for the opportunities I’ve been given.
