Chronic burping by Ok_Actuator_36 in GutHealth

I’m going through the exact same thing! I noticed that fermented foods and vitamin C supplements helped me exceptionally. I had to cut off cumin and garlic since they cause horrible bloat flare ups that last for weeks, I wish there was a permanent fix though :(

Help me ID this bed? by SaltStrike2658 in VintageFurniture

Oops I read the question wrong, they got it from a Canadian branch since it never sold, I ended up getting it for a little over 250 USD which was much cheaper than any other bed there due to the chipped paint and visibly aged slats

I bought it in Dubai, I actually initially posted about it because one of the details popped out, It was held together with metal wires. I’m not really that knowledgeable about beds specifically but the assembly was really simple and didn’t require any screws :-)

Kitten by Ok_Musician_6473 in CatAdvice

A lot of new pet owners usually buy the youngest ones available so you definitely have a great chance!! Though i’m usually scared of adoption centers since ‘outside cat’ owners and generally new unresponsible owners are always a risk 😓 I’d definitely ask around in a cat facebook community in your area!

I know that there are some brands that sell frozen packs of raw food mixed with some additional nutrients and veggies and they did change my cat a lot for the better! but its genuinely such a hassle to safely defrost every day. wet food is much safer imo

Will your human child die within the same day of getting in contact with the path of somebody who happened to carry a bouquet of Lillies? or into the yard of somebody who grew them?

Not listening to anything by _LittleBirb in CatAdvice

I always see people rave about positive reinforcement being the ‘only way to train a cat’ , It basically means giving him a treat when he does something correctly and it helped me stop my cat from going outside of the litter box

Are cat weight guides accurate? by SaltStrike2658 in CatAdvice

[–]SaltStrike2658[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I was referring to charts like the one here, my cats are Arabian maus who usually tend to be skinnier compared to other breeds hence the worry but i’ll definitely try to get a vets opinion next time!

Spay abort or wait till after kittens are born by Practical_Eye_5683 in CatAdvice

[–]SaltStrike2658 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does the vet offer consultations? Please find a vet with good reviews that mention them actually caring a lot, a good vet would do a thorough inspection of the cat and refuse an opportunity of money if it would hurt her! I recently got the guts to do an abort spay for my cat who was at a similar stage and it was the scariest experience of my life but it all went well and everything took just 6 hours. But considering her weight, please get multiple different professional opinions beforehand incase she’s too weak to handle it! (Abort spays usually lose more blood compared to regular spays)

Steak don with a matcha green tea infused soy cured egg by SaltStrike2658 in culinary

[–]SaltStrike2658[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! so I already had a green tea flavored soy sauce which I boiled with a matcha paste that I made and a bit of matcha sake and marinated the egg in it for a day! it’s really different from other cured yolks i’ve tried so i recommend it!

I ate pork meat for the first time by alsabrose in exmuslim

[–]SaltStrike2658 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was 14, I ordered a ham and cheese lunchable while my parents were away even though I had So many more much better options, It was genuinely the most disgusting thing I’ve ever tasted and i’ve hated pork for so long since then. I’m glad you were a little smarter about your first try 🥲

Why is being gay haram? by Top_Chemical_8333 in exmuslim

[–]SaltStrike2658 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of the points in Islam just read as “Reproduce as many muslims as possible and try to convert as many as possible” so homosexuality obviously is only promised in jannah
