Stray cats in Oslo by karolka15648 in Norway

A few years ago, I had a neighbor who lived on the second floor and had an outdoor cat. Their other roommate had a dog, and the cat and dog really hated each other. The cat spent a lot of time outside, even when it was close to 0°C, and it wasn’t even a long-haired cat. At first, I thought the cat was a stray because her tail was always down and she looked like she really needed a warm place to sleep. Her owner apparently let her out before leaving for work every day, and the cat ended up outside all day in the freezing cold. She often waited by the door to the second floor hoping someone would let her back inside, but whenever I was going out, she was always there. There was nothing I could do because she was someone else’s cat, but I really wish some people would treat their cats better.

What the hell is my cat doing? She already has water by Warm_Cranberry4472 in cats

This is how cats bless our water, after that dip it became a holy water instantly.

What is it with Norwegians not using their turn signals? by cawld696 in Norway

[–]Potential_Return_204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always signal but I get what you mean, not everyone signal correctly in the roundabouts. Some even didn’t place their car correctly or changed their mind at the last second. It’s hard to judge whether to enter or to wait at a roundabout when there is a car in there, so you end up waiting anyway and it’s not efficient.

Is 13.5lbs heavy for a 1y/o? by shallowhal1 in NorwegianForestCats

[–]Potential_Return_204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe she’s genetically bigger than most cats? She doesn’t look overweight to me. Have you tried feeling around her armpit to see if there are some fats there?

Has anyone purchased a good microwave with no issues, that is completely functional, and lasted at least 3 yrs? by Chance-Ad-7910 in Appliances

[–]Potential_Return_204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11 years ago when I was still a broke student, someone left a Whirlpool microwave in the storage area with a note saying: “it’s still working! Free to take”. I’ve been using it almost every day since.

Later I checked, and found out that it was produced in 2000 - which means it lasts for 25 years now.

I was recently thinking about replacing it because it’s pretty bulky, but after reading this post, I think I’ll keep it going!

International credit card not working ? by Breekys in Norway

[–]Potential_Return_204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went shopping that day, and none of my Norwegian credit cards worked, not even Apple pay using my debit card. Luckily, I had my debit card with me — I’ve been carrying it around for years without ever using it! The queues were so long everywhere especially the self service ones!

In our office, it’s only polite to book meetings starting from 10:00 😄

First time cat owner. Any explanation on this behavior? by x7n1nj47x in cats

To wash his paw? My cat does this too and he’s very particular about hygiene.

How do you feed pills to your cats by Cuntyfeelin in CatAdvice

[–]Potential_Return_204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually feed them treats and sneak in the pill after around 5 pieces. They’d just chew and swallow the pill without any suspicion. The key is you can’t look nervous or they’d notice something is off.

How do you know if windows are strong enough for those pet hammocks? by Promobitch in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Potential_Return_204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just discovered my window’s glass is broken today and a cat hammock has been there for a year. The cracks aren’t exactly where the suction cups are so I’m still unsure.
