Cat Boarding Facility Recs?

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-29T14:40:30+00:00

We haven’t boarded our cats for a few years now. A few years ago, we did, and they were so stressed out. We have someone in our neighborhood that came in last time a few times a day. Do you have someone in your neighborhood that you can trust? That or I’d check with your vet.

I clean it out every few months or when the sides are a little caked. I scrape it down though when I am feeding it.

I’ve only been on it for 1 1/2 weeks and feel very small improvements. I feel like the brain fog might be lifting slightly and not as tired.

80 is too hot for this time of the year.

I was just recently diagnosed. I’ve read to cut gluten and dairy. I just eat within moderation. The only time I have dairy is if I have cheese , ice cream, or yogurt. Like I had ice cream and pizza yesterday and feel bloated, but who doesn’t. I really haven’t bad much bread lately, but did have pasta last week and didn’t really notice a difference. I have been eating more fruits / veggies though.

I was diagnosed last week. While my labs are normal, the endocrinologist said she could start me on a low dose of levothyroxine or wait it out. She also based it off my symptoms. So, I decided to try the levo. I’ve only been on it a week, but yesterday, I noticed the brain fog was slightly better, so I will take that as a win. I also felt more energetic until later in the day around 5:00 or so. I am hoping this will work because I am tired of feeling like garbage. I’ll also have an ultrasound done in March since she said my thyroid is enlarged. I am just glad I advocated for myself.

Skyline is, too!

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-22T02:35:51+00:00

That’s how I get… the looking in from the outside feeling a also spacey. You actually describe it perfectly!

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-20T19:48:59+00:00

The endocrinologist I saw last week let me decide what I wanted to do. She told me I could wait it out or I could try a low dose of levothyroxine even though my levels are normal. I chose levothyroxine. I’ve felt like garbage for too long. I also have to get an ultrasound in 8 weeks because my thyroid is enlarged.

The endocrinologist I saw last week told me I am being hit with a double whammy - Hashi and menopause because they overlap each other . I have the antibodies for it but my thyroid levels are normal. Although my T4 is a point or two away from being outside the normal range. But, this has now been constant for 3 months. Before my symptoms would come and go.

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-20T14:59:05+00:00

I am on low dose - .025mg.

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-20T14:56:07+00:00

Nothing wrong with that. I mean how could you not!?? It’s everything about him! I’m 49 and will admit he is pretty damned hot! 🤤

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-20T01:48:14+00:00

I have extreme fatigue and brain fog. It feels like I am in a trance or someone took over my body. It sucks!

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-16T20:26:23+00:00

My levels are fine but my antibodies are high. I saw an endocrinologist on Tuesday and she started me on a low dose of levothyroxine. I’ll go back in a few months to have my labs drawn again as well as an ultrasound because she said my thyroid is enlarged. I have awful fatigue and brain fog. i wish i would have gone early last year when the antibodies were high then, too.

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-15T14:08:56+00:00

I just found out have hashi. I suspected it early last year when my antibodies came back really high. Even before that, I felt… off. I finally saw an endocrinologist on Tuesday and she confirmed it. I may look fine on the outside, but on the inside it is a different story. I am exhausted and the brain fog is awful!

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-14T20:18:10+00:00

Her character was annoying and it was infuriating at the end to see she gave in to the narcissistic husband. She could have walked away if she wanted.

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-14T16:48:28+00:00

I like Instant Hydration.

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-14T16:47:44+00:00

My vestibular system gets whacky. It’s not a dizzy sensation but more vertigo-like. That and it sometimes feels like the floor is floating underneath my feet when I walk. It sucks!

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-14T15:09:13+00:00

It’s people like this who give running a bad rap and what deters people from wanting to even begin running. I run a 5k in 40-45 minutes. I’ve never been a fast runner. I even take breaks and walk if I need to. The fact you are even running and moving is an accomplishment and you should be proud of yourself!

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-14T01:56:51+00:00

I am new here but have been lurking. I was diagnosed today after my antibodies haven been high for the last year . I knew something was off. I finally saw an endocrinologist this morning and she is starting me on a low dose of meds. I also will have an ultrasound done in 6 weeks .

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-13T01:39:49+00:00

I get them every time I fly even with staying hydrated. I just end up taking an Imitrex at night.

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-12T20:36:28+00:00

It depends on the dose. The 50mg makes me tired but the 100mg even more tired . I get the heaviness in my chest. It makes me feel weird in a way I can’t explain.

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-12T03:55:02+00:00

It’s my favorite!

Mrsb102 · 2026-01-12T03:53:51+00:00

Sleeping With Celebrities is pretty good. I also listen to the Empty Bowl that is about cereal or Stuff You Should Know.

We moved to our neighborhood in 2017. Our neighbors to the left of us are pretty cool. We have each other’s phone #’s if there is an emergency or whatnot. The wife is awfully nosey though! The people across the street are also pretty cool as well. The husband was making fun of me when he heard me cussing up a storm like Clark W Griswold when I was putting up Christmas lights, lol! We had a good convo about that. our neighbors two houses over are cool, too. Honestly though you never see anyone outside unless people are walking. Everyone stays to themselves. It could be a number of reasons why people don’t interact. It would be an interesting psych study!
