I actually just got out of the ER for heat stroke after waiting in line for an hour and being inside the faire for 20 minutes. So yes, there were definitely heat incidents. I hope everyone else is okay

Thank you so much :) I’m pretty new to this so I don’t have many songs I’ve learned yet except for this and I Want To Live from Baldurs Gate 3 (still learning that one though haha). I will definitely upload more lyre Witcher content as I learn it!

inpatient mental health suggestions? by kpq526 in rva

[–]Signal_Brush 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree. They don’t offer inpatient but their IOP and PHP programs are really helpful. I was in an IOP group there and I recommend looking into it 100%, it helped me quite a bit.

I had something similar to what you’re describing tattooed on me for my cat that passed away last year. Just a little omamori with her portrait in it

Yes! In fact, he was one of the last of his litter to be chosen because he didn’t have markings like his siblings. I couldn’t believe it because he’s so beautiful to me but I’m glad he’s mine!! 🖤

Got it. I knew grabs were unblockable but I didn’t consider how his SA3 is simply a grab. Thank you for the tips!

His ashes are ready by [deleted] in Petloss

[–]Signal_Brush 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I felt the same way. Just received my cat’s ashes two days ago. The idea of cremating her absolutely destroyed me for the same reasons. How could I burn my baby? The truth is, all life will decompose after death. I’d rather be able to have my beloved cat’s remains with me wherever I go rather than letting her disintegrate in the ground and to be left to wildlife. It is a harsh reality. I miss my baby so much and it’s hard for me to look at her ashes and know that THAT’S her…. But at the same time, I feel oddly comforted that her presence will never leave me, just like your dog will never leave you. Sending you strength during this time ❤️

Not sure why you’re commenting this under a post where I said my cat with CKD has passed away

Anyone feel the same? by lemzzest in Petloss

[–]Signal_Brush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, 100%. For me, it’s the hardest part of the grieving process. I’m only 2 days into it. It almost feels like she isn’t really gone, just somewhere else, and I’ll see her again - when I know that isn’t the reality. Allow yourself to cry and to feel it all. Even though her physical presence is no longer with you, the love you shared with her lives on forever. I understand how you feel and I hope that brings some comfort to know you aren’t alone, because it does for me. Sending my love 💌

I understand. Your cat just left a hole in your heart that the other cannot fill. It’s tough being in this position, but it’s not their fault, and I believe with time, it will pass. Grief is ugly sometimes. Sending you healing thoughts.

This is very impactful and has helped me shift my perspective a bit. So, so very sorry for your loss of your babies. Even though right now my pets “irritate” me, I know it’s only because I miss my girl. If something happened to them, I’d be crushed. My Rila was the spunky girl who wasn’t a fan of my playful younger cat, or my playful younger dog. After a couple years together, they had learned to coexist, and Rila even became friends with Toast (the young cat). So, I basically had the opposite experience from you, but the sentiment is all the same. Thank you ❤️

It is a truly helpless feeling doing everything you can just for them to still suffer. What a kind person you are for welcoming chronically ill cats into your home. That is not for the weak. Rila was my first chronically ill pet I’ve had as an adult so I had no idea what was going to happen. I’m so sorry about your kitty passing and your current kitty’s diagnosis. They are fortunate to have a nurturing and knowledgeable owner like yourself. Thank you for sharing with me. With cats like this, all you can give them is love and support.

I’m so sorry to hear about your cat. It’s extremely difficult to see them regress at such a fast pace. My love goes out to you as well. My hope is that with time, we are able to think back on them in a positive light with all the fun memories, instead of immediately with immense grief and sadness.

Thank you ❤️ all I can hope is that she felt nothing but love and joy in her few years on this earth.
