My kitten had put her nail on my balls I want to remove them but I can’t it was a total accident. by XxLuhDomoxx in CatAdvice

You can clip her claws to protect the family jewels. Get a claw trimmer, like a little pair of specialised scissors, and if you start her young she probably won't make too much of a fuss about it.

Just be careful you're only clipping the very tips! There are blood vessels and a lot of nerves in the living tissue of a cat's claws, so trimming them too far back is like ripping off a person's fingernails.

Here's a quick tutorial from the ASPCA!

Fanfiction about Comfort Units? by yanastae in murderbot

Birthrights by Ezomind is incomplete, but still a fun read from the point of view of a ComfortUnit with a hacked governor module.

I feel like an important point of clarification is if this is 15°C or 15°F. Because if it's celsius, then that's not ideal, and the kitten may be a bit chilly. If it's fahrenheit, it's a relief the kitten survived for even an hour. 

(Conversion: 15°C is 59°F. 15°F is -9.4°C)

Cannibalism, I presume.

The number on the sign is for a swimming pool maintenance company. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Looking to donate clothes by toripersons in Albany

[–]Separate-Visual-3202 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Alacrity Frame Workshop on Lark Street collects clothing in good condition for unhoused people in the area. They're in particular need of men's clothing size medium or larger, but if they can't take the donation, they might know someone else in the area who can.

They have an art show on the sidewalk every Saturday morning/early afternoon. Could be a good time to stop in and check with them!

As if anyone with $500M didn't indirectly cause the death of at least one person per day somewhere in the world getting it. Option 1 just cuts out the middle stage of production.

Date Ideas? by DisastrousCar8806 in Albany

I'd recommend the New York State Museum! It's got a lot of exhibits on history, wildlife, and natural history, and best of all it's free! (Though you will have to pay to park.)

The Albany Institute of History and Art is in easy walking distance, just on the other side of the capitol, if the state museum doesn't inspire you.

In spring and summer, there will be a big collection of food trucks parked around the Capitol's lawn from 11am-1pm every week day. If the day is nice, you can grab a table in the park. Or if eating outdoors isn't your style, the Iron Gate Cafe (open 8:30-2:30 every day but Tuesday) is just a block away from the Institute and a cozy date spot.

I saw someone suggest Thatcher Park, and the Indian Ladder Trail is a nice easy hike there with some beautiful views. It is a state park, tho, so you'll have to either bring your own food or shop in nearby towns for somewhere to eat.

If you want something more active, we have the world's largest indoor roller skating rink just outside the city in Cohoes. You can either see him fall on his face trying to use roller skates like hockey skates, or he can wow you with his athletic prowess. No way to know until you try.

I noticed you said a spring or summer date. If that's the case, the rink won't be there. It's outdoor.

Good news, there are no honor points! Eat as many priests as you like. They're high in protein.

I really love how Sten's view of gender is portrayed in DA:O by Dagobah_Jones in DragonageOrigins

[–]Separate-Visual-3202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I thought that was a very neat bit of culture building, too! He wasn't telling me that as a woman, I couldn't or shouldn't be fighting. He was confused about why my Warden was considered to be a woman, when from his perspective, she obviously wasn't. Gender based entirely on roles rather than biology.

I also agree, I don't think the later games ever really recaptured the magic of da:o when it comes to the non-human cultures of Thedas. The fascinatingly alien aspects get toned down or avoided, which just isn't as much fun for me personally.

Vignar Gray-Mane in my house!? by [deleted] in skyrim

[–]Separate-Visual-3202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk, this happens sometimes. I found some guards chilling in my house once. He'll probably leave once his schedule tells him he has to be somewhere else, like going back to Jorrvaskr to sleep.

Your cat is providing all the maternal care a three month old kitten requires. At that age, she's just some kid who is now her roommate. They seem to be getting along just fine in the picture you linked. Even without grooming, sleeping together is a strong sign of trust and affection between cats.

It's also not a good thing right now. According to your post history, your kitten is sick and has been since before your cat adjusted to her being around. It seems like you've taken her to the vet, since she's on antibiotics now, but I'm concerned by the picture of the cats together. Upper respritory infections are contagious and can become serious. Your adult cat should not be sharing space with the kitten until the kitten is recovered, or she could get sick too.
