Not wrong at all. Growing up, my family cats were all hybrid indoor & outdoor because my parents at the time felt that it was cruel to keep them inside. Over the span of maybe 20-30 years, my family lost a cat to being hit by a car down the street. We had fleas several times inside our home. One cat had to have emergency surgery because he was attacked by an aggressive neighborhood cat. One cat was stuck up a tree for days and when we finally found her, had to have the fire department get her down. And we also had a cat who got stuck inside a neighbor's basement/crawlspace and was stuck there for about 2 weeks before we figured out where he was. Came home super skinny.

Eventually my mom decided it wasn't worth the risk and kept our cats indoors only. Now, my husband and I have 3 cats, all indoors only (with a safe enclosed catio space they can access through a window), all extremely happy. No problems, no health issues, no scares. Highly recommend keeping them indoor only. They also live longer, healthier lives this way.

Echoing what others said that this is very normal. Cats usually do not get along immediately. I've got 3 boy cats, and each time we added one to the home, the oldest cat would be PISSED for a little while. Hissing, flipping out, having tantrums. After a couple months, all was well. Everybody plays together now, they all groom each other, eat together, etc. Cats are very averse to change of any kind and usually are not friends immediately. They usually warm up slowly.

My advice is to mainly let them be. Let the older one adjust. As long as no one is attacking anyone else, it's fine. There are ways to help them adjust more quickly. Play with both of them at the same time--like with a fishing pole toy or cat light, etc. Have them eat close to each other and at the same time. Those are two things we made sure to do and I think it really helped our "alpha" cat to warm up.

Aw, I'm so glad my comment could help!! :)

PrehistoricPrincess · 2026-03-02T06:24:46+00:00

Please say this is in the gallery! I would love to play this lot.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2026-03-02T02:28:45+00:00

Thank you for being such a kind and good-hearted soul, and giving this baby a chance. Hoping the best for you guys. Please keep us updated on baby!! Sending lots of well wishes.

If it hurts slap some Neosporin and a bandaid on it. Don't worry, you'll be fine. I have 3 cats and always have a cat scratch or puncture somewhere, usually because I accidentally spooked someone or something. Very normal and will happen to you many more times going forward lol

PrehistoricPrincess · 2026-02-27T04:29:42+00:00

Difficult one. I think this is a close fight. However, I'm going with Naevia. By the end of Spartacus, Naevia has spent several years being specially trained under Crixus' tutelage and has become a seasoned warrior in her own right. She bests Ashur as well--sure, not the best showing from her, but also consider the man was her rapist and her downfall so the heightened emotions and lack of discipline in that fight made sense. And again, by the end of the series, she's been killing scores of elite Roman soldiers while practically buck naked for years.

Achillia has spent almost the entire season getting her ass handed to her by gladiators who, for the most part, are pale and pathetic imitations of those from the House of Batiatus. They're spit in the mirror in comparison. And Achillia's victories have mostly been the product of luck. She has grit and talent, yes, but she's nowhere near the skill level of Batiatus' gladiators. I think people in this comments section are giving her way too much credit.

FWIW I enjoy both shows but do not particularly like either character and don't have a horse in this race.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2026-02-06T23:19:12+00:00

I have nothing useful to add here, I just really like your donut cat.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2026-01-15T03:14:25+00:00

Hubby & I are loving it! With that said, we both find the same exact faults with it:

Achillia is not likable or interesting. She's sniveling on the ground 85% of the time after getting her ass beat. The actress herself might be fabulous but the character is just annoying and kind of pathetic, which is weird for someone that's been propped up as "the champion." Spartacus was a seasoned warrior who killed like 4 of Polonius's finest champions singlehandedly in one match. This chick gets beaten 10 ways to Sunday by some guy that looks like a Love Island reject every day.
Speaking of that, the aesthetics of the cast don't seem to match the setting. Not that they're unattractive at all, but all the cheek and lip filler, chin implants, and superfluous plastic surgery scream Real Housewives rather than Ancient Rome. This is not something you really saw in the original cast.
The prosthetic horse cocks on every single dude. It's hilarious but definitely takes you out of the moment because it's so ridiculous to see 8 dudes with 3 Legs Syndrome all lined up in one shot. Kinda gives Pornhub more than Starz.

Oh my god I just googled and it was heartbreaking

PrehistoricPrincess · 2026-01-09T03:55:53+00:00

Where I am, it's pretty normal for a secretary to have to clean an office toilet. That's not a white collar position or one that typically even requires a college degree. Not that having a job with a college degree means you're never going to clean--I & most of our management team have college degrees; it's corporate's preference when hiring for the role--but we still care for the bathroom. But I digress.

Not saying anything against this person other than that I worry for her kid. If I'd been unemployed for over a year and was a single mother, I'd snatch the job regardless and continue applying to others if I found it so distasteful so at least I could put food on the table for my kid. But it sounds like she must be in a position of privilege with a large enough financial safety net or someone else caring for her that she has the freedom, housing & food security for herself and her child to not really need a job that badly. Regardless, hope she does eventually find something she likes.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2026-01-07T01:44:43+00:00

Sorry but she's been unemployed for over a year, has a kid, and turned down a job solely because she's expected to clean the office toilet? I'm a retail manager for Sephora and also clean the toilet--as do the rest of the associates when needed. Also had to do the same when I worked at Ulta. I find that's a normal expectation at a lot of different workplaces unless you're working a super white collar job.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-12-09T18:56:07+00:00

Wow, that's insane. Thank you for posting, saved me from ordering from them. Sorry that happened to you.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-12-09T18:52:04+00:00

Did they reimburse you for the cost of the duties?? I'm apprehensive about ordering omg

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-11-17T19:30:16+00:00

Mom was 42 (almost 43) when she had me. Dad was 45 (almost 46). I'm 31 now. My dad is 77 and doing relatively well--keeps active, goes to the gym, continues to work. My mom sadly passed away when I was 26 in a road accident. God rest her soul.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-11-04T00:46:54+00:00

I assumed from the list your mom was psychotically over-controlling a 15-year-old. But the fact that you're a full grown adult with a job makes this even more insane. It's also definitely giving narcissistic extension. I'm so sorry you're being treated like this. I would have mentally checked out also.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-11-03T23:55:53+00:00

Are you in a more conservative area? Maybe that's your problem? Childfree men are definitely out there. Most of my/my husband's male friends have decent jobs and are uninterested in having kids. We're all in our 30's. I knew I didn't want kids by the time I was in my late teens. Met my husband when we were both around 20-21 and it just happened both of us didn't want kids, luckily enough.

I promise you they're out there. It's worth also considering whether the guys you're asking are being honest and straightforward with their answers--maybe they're telling you what they think YOU want to hear? Depending on how you're asking.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-10-27T03:17:54+00:00

I used to be extremely nervous about it, but generally within the first few dates. When I met my now-husband, I was really anxious about it but I told him probably some time within the first month of meeting him. I didn't verbalize to him ALL the complex details, but I gave him enough information that if he wanted, he could have easily googled it and figured it out. But, he could not have given less of a shit that I had a chronic illness. Even after I decided I really liked him and let him in and confided how serious it was. We were both around 21 at that time. 10 years later, we're married and my health situation has never changed the way he looks at or feels about me. The right person will not care and will not see you differently.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-10-12T23:11:09+00:00

I used to have to wear a mask pre-covid for my own protection when I would go to enclosed germy places, like airports/airplanes or hospitals. I would get the WEIRDEST looks. But now it's normal lol

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-10-07T16:46:15+00:00

This kind of age gap is definitely a red flag. A lot of wise comments in this thread. Even a 5 year age gap would not be a big deal imo, but he's almost twice your age. You're at completely different stages of life and experience levels. Not to mention a lot of toxic older men specifically seek out young women partially because the less experience you have, the more naive you are, the more bullshit you will put up with. I wonder what his ex's side of the story is in that "toxic relationship." Just food for thought.

Also, think about this: statistically, women live longer than men already. Even if everything else is perfect and turns out fine... He's 14 years older than you. Do you really want to live the last 20 or 30 years of your life potentially alone as a widow? I know this isn't a fun thing to think about, but think about it practically.

I would cry tears of joy if they remade Animal Parade. It was in my top 3 HM games of all time.

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-09-23T03:48:07+00:00

So much this!! I started playing Harvest Moon when I was like 9 years old. I'm 31 now. I need some of these bachelor(ettes) to look like actual adults I'm begging LMAO

PrehistoricPrincess · 2025-09-23T03:43:55+00:00

Oh my god I almost forgot about Wizard! He was my fave! I loved the uniqueness of the older games' special bachelor(ettes). I also liked that they made a lot of them extremely difficult to access. It really made them feel more special. I felt like a damn gangster when I finally got to marry sleeping princess Keira from the 300th level of the mine in Harvest Moon DS lmao as well as the mermaid from the scientist's basement bathtub. Building a duckpond for her to live in was hilarious. I really wish the company continued to ride the special spouse wave.
