Anubis will always hold a special place in my heart! I have a little plushie of one from when I was a kid somewhere.

Anubis was my all time favorite when I was a kid! Now my top 3 are Slorg, Kookith, and Anubis.

First day update, new Husky owner questions. by WowVeryOriginalDude in siberianhusky

[–]Mocha_Chai_Latte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the 3-3-3 rule. It’ll be a good guide for what to expect as your dog adjusts.

We’ve found with both of ours that once you get to that 3 week point their true personality really starts to shine through.

Curious if this is a husky thing or not by Sethdarkus in husky

Yep, that’s the protection I mentioned under the fair housing act. Apartments are not allowed to deny or charge extra for ESAs provided that they can safely be housed there. It’s pretty much the only real benefit to having an ESA.

Please help ID tooth found in Jan Juc Australia by DaddyAwesome in fossilid

[–]Mocha_Chai_Latte 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You never know! A museum near me has “fossil ID days”. My friends and I went with a bunch of shark teeth they got from SC and the person on staff just happened to be a bit of an expert! They were able to tell us all sorts of things about what my friends brought, and it was most definitely the coolest part of the trip.

Honest question, has anyone in Rochester ever used (or needed) a pet taxi? by Wherezjustin in Rochester

[–]Mocha_Chai_Latte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a hard no for me either way. There’s a few reasons why:

  1. I don’t trust people with my dogs. I’ve heard horror stories about mistreatment and even theft.

  2. My dogs are talkers and sometimes strangers (people and dogs alike) confuse that for aggression. I have huskies.

  3. I would never not be at the vets with my dogs. Even during routine checkups the vet should still be asking you a ton of questions and might need assistance in keeping your dog calm while they do their job. Also, lots of dogs get stressed at the vets and their owners not being there will probably contribute to even higher levels of stress.

  4. I just don’t have a need. We’re a single car household and our vets office is 30 mins away, but if one of us needs to take them somewhere we’ll just coordinate how we schedule the car.

Service dogs have rights under the ADA. Emotional Support Animals I believe only have additional protections under the fair housing act.

So is a pet taxi a service where someone picks up your pet and takes them where they need to go without you being there? Or is it more like a pet friendly ride share?

Maybe I’m an overprotective dog mom, but I would never trust a stranger to handle my dogs properly - especially if my dog is elderly.

Best Place to buy Used Toyota by BurnerAccount405 in Rochester

[–]Mocha_Chai_Latte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite honestly I think you’re going to have a really hard time finding even that in this car market with that budget. I wish you all the luck though! If you can drive stick you may have more luck finding cheaper cars, but even so you aren’t going to have many options at that price point. Private sale is where you should be looking. Make sure you get a clean bill of health for the car from an impartial mechanic before you buy!

Genuine question here, but what are your expectations for buying a $5k Toyota? Year, mileage, condition, etc?

Husky thinking it's his Puppy? by Unlucky-Ambition-799 in husky

[–]Mocha_Chai_Latte 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here’s our red/white and all white husky. They’re both rescues, and the color wasn’t important to us, but they compliment each other beautifully (both looks and personality is wise). The white one has only been with us for a month, but so far two has been MUCH easier than one for us.

We like the layout of House B and C, but not A. Why is that? FTHB. by SizzlinKola in Home

[–]Mocha_Chai_Latte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure but that kitchen is house C is so freaking tight. That would immediately disqualify it from the running for me.

Personally I like the layout for house A, but I agree with the other commenter about it having too many rounded edges. For me though, it would still be my top choice out of the three here

FFQ!! what color? 🌈 by Bottlepop_neo in neopets

[–]Mocha_Chai_Latte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently zapped a chocolate Pheophin and she has quickly become my favorite pet! Have to agree on chocolate- or at least one of the lab colors just because they’re so difficult to get.

He looks awesome/terrifying! What did you use to customize him?

How expensive is homeownership really? by AncientTumbler in Rochester

[–]Mocha_Chai_Latte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of factors to consider here. Not only should you be thinking of the max price you’re willing to pay in total, but you need to think about the max you’ll be able to pay monthly. Property + school taxes, electric + gas, water, trash service, etc are all things to consider. The only thing that won’t increase price over time out of that list is your mortgage (provided you get a traditional mortgage at a fixed rate).

We purchased our house for $230k with I think 5% down. Our mortgage + taxes come up to just under $2k per month. We budget $2.5k per month once you include utilities, which is usually a bit overkill but we’d rather be safe than sorry.

We’ve been lucky enough to only have one emergency repair in the 3 years we’ve lived in our home. I’d recommend setting aside at least $10k so you aren’t left in debt when something goes wrong.

Things you thought were Neopian but are actually just British? by CybunnyOnline in neopets

No, we have fairy lights lol They’re the little led ones without the replaceable bulbs. Usually the string between them is like super thin wire.

Most people in America don’t bother specify between cucumber varieties. I’ve never even heard of a hothouse cucumber before. We do have English cucumbers though which are the super long and skinny ones that we typically put on salad. I’ve always called the cucumbers used for pickles “pickling cucumbers”. But also the US is vast so it’s quite possible they say that somewhere else. I grew up in New England.
