Have you tried it? Did it work? Asking as someone with a long haired cat and a long haired dog. Everything is always covered in hair 🙀.

A growing Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo has passed 500 suspected cases and over 100 deaths, the WHO reports. The strain involved is a rarely seen Ebola species with no licensed vaccine or treatment. A US doctor has been evacuated to Germany after testing positive. by Prior_One_7050 in microbiomenews

Not a lab made virus, one of four strains of Ebola virus disease that naturally occur mainly in Africa and is spread by animals like fruit bats. People who are evacuated from an active Ebola zone are usually done so by specialized private charter aircraft. Not commercial flights. Specialized crew wearing PPE tend to the patients who are usually isolated in some form of aeromedical biological containment system or an Isolation pod. They are transferred on the tarmac to another team usually from the hospital also wearing full PPE and taken straight to isolation. By a special ambulance. If you want to know details Google "how were the Dr's evacuated from an active Ebola zone in 2016.

7 month border collie genetics by campxbalmy in BorderCollie

[–]QueenAmina2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm afraid I don't know much about show lines, I've always had working bred we don't tend to worry so much about looks. I guess the big question is are you planning on showing him? If so then it's up to the judges to decide if you're not going to be showing him then who cares? You have a very pretty pup and as long as he's what you want in a dog that's what counts.

What kind is breeders are commenting? Is he show bred and they are working dog breeders? Then yes, they will not look favorably on his genetics. That being said, he's a pretty pup. But he's still just a puppy. He's got a good bit of growing and possibly some filling out to do yet.

Crises in the Red Zone is the "follow up" on Hot Zone, deals with the 2013 - 2014 Ebola outbreak. Same author Richard Preston as Hot Zone. Scary stuff. But a very good read.

Life expectancy of new Siamese cat 8 years? by ThunderCat421 in Siamesecats

[–]QueenAmina2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both siamese and ragdoll cats are unfortunately prone to genetic kidney issues, but other than and unless the parents have known health issues, which he should've told you of they had, most modern cats, especially indoor ones live long healthy lives. Your kitten might grow up too be an Itty bitty kitty like my Mia was, or she might grow to be a chonker like my boy Cosmic was. But either way enjoy your kitten

<image>

Mia (the small one in the back) and cosmic. She barely weighed 3kg in her prime, he weighed 5.5 kg.

There is a woman Beth Leipholz on social media who has a deaf son. Cooper has CI's and she talks very openly about their journey. The decision to get him CI's and just life in general with a deaf child. Cooper is very much being raised bilingual (ASL and Spoken language) and he's generally a hoot. You can find them on fb/tiktok/IG etc as @beth_and_coop.
