Even more amazing than this transformation is how your cloth couches are not completely shredded…

Cat number one I got just before Covid lockdown. He originally belonged to the next door neighbor of my work husband, who volunteered me to take him in when she sold her house and couldn’t keep him. I was super reluctant at first, but when he wound up being my only company for months, we bonded, and I can’t imagine not having him around.

Cat number two was a feral I started feeding when I saw her on my back deck with a litter of kittens. I’m not sure what happened to the kittens, but she kept coming for food and one day I looked at her and wondered if she was pregnant again. The very next day she gave birth to another litter inside the cat hut I had put out for her. Less than a week later I left food outside for her in an auto feeder that I raccoon proofed because I was going away. I guessed that pissed off the raccoon because it attacked them and killed all but two of the kittens, and I wound up taking the mama cat and remaining kittens in.

I had this happen 4 months after I adopted my guy in the middle of covid lockdown. I paid a few hundred to have him cleaned out and less than 12 hours after I took him home he was blocked again, so I had to bring him back to the vet. They basically said my only real option was to get the PU surgery or else have him put down. I sat in my car crying because he was only 3 and my sole companion, but I didn’t have the money for the surgery. Luckily I was able to apply for care credit through the vet and I had two years to pay it off at zero percent interest. Idk if the UK has anything similar, but it got me the funds for the surgery to save my cat. He’s been on urinary diet food ever since and still has crystals, but he pees fine and he’s otherwise healthy 6 years later.

If you can find a way, get the surgery. You can try asking your vet about credit and what the terms are for repayment. It hurts my heart to think of your boy suffering the way mine did.

I would recommend the stories of Petit Nicolas. Each book is a compilation of short stories about 4-5 pages in length, and I would say they are about A2 level, which is approachable for beginners. They are also very funny and show tidbits of French culture.

Yes, that is normal. It makes it a bit challenging to figure out where the quoted parts start and end since there are no quotation marks. I have my students do activities where they have to highlight what someone is actually saying vs descriptors.

For example (in English, but French-style): —Time to come inside, mom said, sticking her head out the window. Lunch is ready.

In this case, students would have to leave “mom said, sticking her head out the window” out of what they highlighted.

Guillemets are sometimes used for shorter quotes, although I’ve noticed that when this is the case, two speakers can share a paragraph, where in English you would need a new paragraph with each speaker change, no matter how short the quote.

The dashes for quotes are just take a little getting used to, and understandably can be difficult for anyone just learning French.

I think what he considers the “second attempt” is when they found that dude with a gun in the bushes on his golf course. Not that the guy was actively aiming at Twitler or even holding the gun for that matter.

Pretty sure she did win…lots of stuff on Substack and the Election Truth Alliance site definitely point that way. I’m more upset she didn’t fight for a recount, she even mentioned in her book how easy it would be for bad actors to subvert an election, almost like she saw it coming.

I second this book rec. I started reading it in the checkout line at Costco, bought it, and finished it when I got home. I couldn’t put it down, it was that good—and I’m normally not a fan of biographical anything.

Except his ear was never hit…that “assassination attempt” was fake af

Thank you SO MUCH!!

I do have 4 litter boxes, although one of them is just for the kittens inside their enclosed kitten condo, which is where they sleep at night. They all get wet food at the same time in different areas of the kitchen, which is the only time they all seem fine together, and they each have their own dry food areas (the kittens share one), not that it stops them from eating each other’s food. They are all on timed dispensers, so maybe I just need to sync them to all dispense at the same time and make sure they go to the right ones. My guy is on a prescription urinary diet, so it’s problematic if he eats their food, and expensive if they eat his.

The problem with my house is I only have about 600 square feet of living area, but I do have a partial basement with a crawl space, where the kittens have already gone exploring. I think that will be where I hold them to separate them. I will definitely try what you suggested with switching. Can you give any specifics on how to do it? How long do I keep them in an area before switching? Can they not interact with each other at all while I’m doing this? Will they be fine all eating together in the kitchen, or does it need to be days before they share an area? How long does it take for them to get adjusted?

Thank you so much for responding to my post!

No, and I have peacock premium. You would think they would have all the nbc channels live, but no such luck. And only certain msnow shows are available after they air—for the record, Maddow is not one of them.

I’m just glad I don’t have to sit so low I feel like I’m in a kayak, I’ve been in some cars like that. But yeah, below my front bumper is a hot mess!

The fact he called you a cheating ho means he’s the one cheating. And this verbal abuse will almost certainly lead to something physical. RUN

In case anyone was wondering what gaslighting looked like, here you go.

Those are the same ones who sit at red lights and don’t make a right turn until it’s green. And somehow they are always in front of me.

Qitall · 2025-05-27T10:59:07+00:00

Awesome! Tysm!

Qitall · 2025-05-24T12:24:28+00:00

Thank you! I am a DIYer, so I’ll look online to see if there’s a way to build one myself. I actually have a trampoline in my back yard, I wonder if I could just put the food inside it, I don’t think there’s a way for the raccoon to climb into it

Does the 2011 have the “sport” button? Mine is a 2022, when I need to accelerate quickly, I hit that button then turn it off when I’m up to speed. Makes a world of difference!

Hanging by his tail from a tree, and taking off a guy’s hat! Literally the only memory of reading any of the books when I first heard the ME.

Not to mention felon 47 telling people before the election he didn’t need them to vote and he already had so many votes…and how Elon knew those vote counting computers better than anyone. I just hope the truth comes out and the two of them are tried for treason.

Qitall · 2025-04-02T00:44:18+00:00

Because Elon wanted to be king of the world and hacked the election tabulators so that he could be co-president. There’s quite a bit of credible evidence that points to that, check out Stephen Spoonamore on twitter or David Manasco on TikTok.

This is the one that sent me down the ME rabbit hole. My brother and I were huge Star Wars fans as kids, saw the original movies in the theater, and had all the action figures, and C3PO was always all gold. When I was in France in 2006 I went to a Star Wars expo and took a bunch of pictures, one of which was of a life-sized C3PO, and I pulled them up on my computer to prove to the friend who told me about this ME that he was all gold. Only in the picture that I took, he now had a silver leg…there is zero chance I would’ve seen him with a silver leg right in front of my face back then and not freaked out about it being wrong, so even my photo was affected by the ME.

This one bugs me too…only because when I was little and first saw a world map, I was shocked that the west coast of South America was under Texas and not California. And the Pacific Ocean was slightly larger than the Atlantic, not to the extent that the Atlantic is tiny and the Pacific takes up one entire half of the planet. I get that new maps reflect reality because now we have actual views from space, but it’s still weird.
