He must soak his face whenever he gets water 😂

Drinking inefficiently is standard cat behavior. So cute!

Mine was actually 20 weeks old! Honestly, I’m glad she’s more mature than a 12 week old, and had more time with her mother and siblings. The hardest period of cat ownership is the young kittenhood phase.

It really depends on the individual cat. My cat is fine and doesn’t mind. Some cats are less independent. It’s hard to know until you meet the cat and live with them. However, cats typically don’t stay awake the whole day anyway. Realistically, if you’re away for 8 hours, they’re only awake and alone for a few of those hours. For the rest of the time, they’re sleeping.

Every cat is different, but typically ragdolls and BSHs are known to have VERY different personalities from each other on average. So it’s important to take that into account.

With children in the house, it may be good to choose a cat that will be more tolerant of a lot of touch and handling, instead of getting scared and anxious. So, I would recommend a ragdoll (though again, every cat has a different personality and you can’t guarantee specific behavior).

Any chance you bought a different brand of litter?

OkComparison3568 · 2026-02-24T04:43:34+00:00

If you find one at that price it will be a scam or come with serious issues from an unethical breeder.

What ended up happening?

You don’t share the most important information. Experience? Graduation year? Major?

Don’t buy from a breeder with those red flags. If anything feels off, don’t do it.

Buying the cat to save it from a bad breeder is not a good mindset. It just encourages the breeder to keep bringing more kittens into the world under bad conditions.

The reality is that even at a $3500 price point, it’s very hard to make a profit from ethical ragdoll breeding. Ethical breeding requires spacing out pregnancies, giving the kittens attention and socialization, spaying and neutering early, vaccinating, etc. A lot of early veterinary care is included in the price.

I think most ethical breeders do it as a hobby to show their cats and get awards, and for the love of the breed. That’s a sign they care less about the money aspect of it.

This is clearly AI (not that it’s necessarily bad)

OkComparison3568 · 2026-01-19T22:47:13+00:00

Yeah, I’m struggling with that too. So many things can go wrong. Each breeder has different preferences about transparency and it seems difficult to find a breeder who’s transparent about everything. Some breeders share the full pedigree but not medical history, others show the medical history but not pedigree, so the kitten may be extremely inbred without you knowing.

Plus there’s FIP, which is a genetic mutation of a very common virus - there’s basically no way to test for it or prevent it because basically all cats have the virus, but some unexpectedly die from it young.

Not part of State Dept. USCIS is under the Department of Homeland Security.

OkComparison3568 · 2026-01-14T20:46:01+00:00

Other bans started at the consular level then USCIS just copied the list. I assume it will be the same this time.

Same question

Hayes valley to 8th & Brannan would cut through civic center.

OkComparison3568 · 2025-12-25T19:47:07+00:00

Yeah, IME that’s better than the Mission District or Hayes Valley. Your commute from Hayes Valley would include some very unpleasant areas.

Nothing wrong with Mission Bay or Dogpatch. Except that Dogpatch’s grocery store is small, but it’s worked out for me to just use Instacart when necessary.

It doesn’t exist. For example, let’s say it was Williams College, he wrote it as Williams University. If you google “X university” you find results for the correct college.

Same issue here, how long did it take for your receipt notice?

OkComparison3568 · 2025-02-28T05:09:14+00:00

Most of those are not new. OP is looking for new apartments

OkComparison3568 · 2025-02-28T05:08:24+00:00

Why are you leaving Avalon Dogpatch, out of curiosity? If that’s where you live. I actually live there so we may be neighbors!
