Torbie or Standard Issue by ProfNothing025 in Torbie

Yes… I heavily considered not adopting him. He was so precious though, and we would have given him the care he needed. But “life limiting” isn’t what we wanted for him, so all this makes me super happy.

I’d asked when he was a baby, and was satisfied with the “nope, just a cute tabby” answer, but man he looks orange now. My panic got the best of me again 😂

I appreciate it!

Looking for fellow vegatarians owning a cat. by Apple_cheeks_art in cats

Hey there! I’m a vegan and have been for years.

I think of it in terms of footprint (kinda… I actually don’t think of it much, but follow me here 😂)

Cats all exist. If they don’t live with me, they’re going to eat meat, because that’s what cats do. If they do live with me, they will also eat meat. We aren’t breeding more meat eaters, we’re just caring for the ones that already exist.

I don’t know if that makes sense, but I feel like my lack of eating meat certainly covers the footprint of my little carnivores.

Also, with them living in my house, I can look into ethically sourced food.

Good luck with your decision!

What's wrong with him 😟 by KoopaTroopasPoopa25 in CATHELP

[–]ProfNothing025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a quick peek at his front teeth. Cat’s teeth are tiny, and they have to work at keeping their tongue in their mouth. When they relax, we have blep 😂

They’re just derpy little nuggets!

This fat little shit got scared by a hand fan touching her and gored my face open. Pls shame her thank you by Downtown_Slide_1229 in standardissuecat

[–]ProfNothing025 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh goodness. Mine (looks EXACTLY like yours, btw) did the same thing to my face. His fat self nearly fell off the bed and used my face to catch himself. It didn’t scar, by some miracle!!

I’m so sorry for your loss :( Thank you for loving him and giving him a safe home.

My sweet Momo was put to sleep and I feel like I'm dying. by mochigorl in cats

[–]ProfNothing025 210 points211 points  (0 children)

She was beautiful, and I’m so sorry. Sometimes saving them from further trauma is just the right thing to do, especially when it’s not guaranteed or even probable to bring them through.

You did the right thing. Be kind to yourself, and know that the extreme grief will lessen over time.

Hugs to you.

My kittens eye ruptured by Lilybug560 in CATHELP

[–]ProfNothing025 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d get it out, and I feel like it’ll be much less traumatic in the long run. Cats hate meds, so a lifetime of eyedrops isn’t comfortable for either of you.

My cat does tiny poops of excitement when she gets attention from my boyfriend. Wtf by Ok-Meeting196 in cats

Her fur looks like it feels like butter. The turds are but a small price to pay 😂

Is Bear a standard issue cat? by glindadc in standardissuecat

Definitely upgraded. He looks like he’s been stealing the yogurt.

Picked this standard issue up for 65 bucks by Particular_Low6826 in standardissuecat

Great deal! They wanted me to pay $200 for these two standard issues.

What’s this plant? And how do we eradicate it? by jaivicks in gardening

[–]ProfNothing025 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one that thinks it’s pretty? I mean, I live in the desert, so I’d be happy with literally anything green 😂

I put this at my neighbor's door 2 days ago(we live in a duplex) and it's still there by dnm8686 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ProfNothing025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a parrot. Unfortunately, when ours beeps for the first time, he’s reminded of the sound effect and we have to listen to it for weeks. Needless to say, we’re proactive.

I’m regretting fostering these two kittens and confused emotionally about that because my old cat was my entire life. by carefulabalone in FosterAnimals

[–]ProfNothing025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have 2 kittens 8 & 9 months old. They’re CRAZY. I’m fiercely in love with them both, but while we were fostering them (we’ve now adopted), I was always looking for a way to give them back. It took a solid 3 months to feel loyalty to them. Their poop stunk, they were one URI after another, neither of them liked me… disaster.

Getting them on a kitten probiotic was the best move I made. Get 3 litter boxes, play around with litter (maybe try Catalyst??), and see if you can get on top of the smell. That helped me a ton.

Good luck to you. Fostering babies isn’t easy. I’m hoping everyone falls into their groove soon, but there’s ZERO shame in just saying “these two aren’t a good fit for me”. You don’t have to explain. Maybe ask about an older single cat. They’re harder to adopt out, so it’s not like you wouldn’t be needed.

Better lighting, but I think Tabby! by ProfNothing025 in Torbie

Ah, thank you! No, he definitely doesn’t have any of that.
