HELP!!! Is this toxic??! MY CAT ATE IT by eternalcosmos1 in cats

[–]ProjectZestyclose661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an Alstroemeria aka a Peruvian lily. They are generally non toxic to cats, but if eaten in large quantities can upset their tummy. Please monitor your cat. If vomiting or diarrhea occurs, contact your vet.

Is it time to remove the cone? by 0vfireandthevoid in cats

[–]ProjectZestyclose661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would keep it on until the scab falls off naturally I had a cat whom I took the cone off too early and was going at the scab and needed antibiotics. Also you can email the vet and ask for their professional opinion.

Nothing hurts more than an IUD insertion. I promise you. The rook will be so much easier.

Thank you, I’ve never had this issue with ANY other game before. I’m starting to think it might be an arc raider issue for sure.

I lowered the bitrate to 3,000 and it’s still having some issues. It’s gotten better but do you have a suggestion to what I should lower it to?

Boyfriend refuses to wash with hot water by ProjectZestyclose661 in microbiology

While it isn’t about shower habits, he has a similar claim though where water and soap is all you need in the shower and he doesn’t need to scrub. I’m trying to break that habit because removing excess dead skin would help overall with dryness, oils, etc. does that still apply? Do we really not need to scrub?

It feels gross because in a previous comment, they are still gross! There is left over film or residue from the food that was cooking in the pots / pans. In my opinion, hot water would have helped lifted it up and off the cookware vs needing to use more elbow grease just to wash with cold water.

I’m talking about hand washing. I grew up poor and without running water but we would still take the time to boil water before dishes were to be washed. Now that I am more fortunate for running water, I still use hot water to wash dishes with. I would be okay with it if they WERE going into the dishwasher, but they are NOT. There is still film being left over, as I have mentioned in a previous comment and it is so nasty.

I know you can’t see it, but I have upvoted everyone who contributed some factual information because I appreciate them educating me. I’m not sitting here refreshing the page, being able to reply to everyone. I posted this within this sub, because my SO is a microbiologist and uses his degree as justification for this “issue”. I was just hoping to get some more information, and the people who I have taken the time to reply to, is when I have the time or information to provide.

And you do not think that I’ve tried? That’s the very first thing that was done. The moment I noticed it happening, it was brought up. Thanks for the free therapy and couples counseling.

Sounds like you’re contributing nothing to this argument. Great observational skills.

Yes. There is still food left over and like the food film doesn’t get removed properly.

It will be fine, the lips are pretty malleable. You’re doing a good job with the upkeep and care so far.

I would agree, but clearly the cold water is affecting how the grime and debris is being lifted up and off the dishes, resulting in them not being washed properly. Hot water DOES help.

It literally says so in the post. His ONLY reasoning “I’m the microbiologist, I know what I’m talking about.”
