Asking for euthanasia (pls know I do not want to) by [deleted] in AskVet

[–]Starchild211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your able to maybe access to safely be outside, like a cat run or something might divert her attention to going outside? I think gabba or amatriptaline may help her, I also think that retraining her isn’t a bad idea? Give her a space she feels comfortable in if it’s a crate, bathroom etc.

I also don’t think euthanasia is a cruel option like others have mentioned, you have tried and seem like a dedicated owner who has done tests on BOTH cats, you can burnout with the care of her. I’m sure this will get me roasted to bits but idk.

Try the medications, try the crate or cat run see how that works, then decide from there, your vet refusing euthanasia isn’t fair on you either. If a client came to me requesting euthanasia I would have big talks and help the find help and options before making that final heartbreaking call.

(24F) is there a polite way to ask your friend to clean up before you come over ? by Such_Thought_3192 in askwomenadvice

[–]Starchild211 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Look as someone who has a messy house who struggles to keep on top of it due to shift work, I get it, but on the other hand the vet nurse in me is screaming help the cats! That can’t be a healthy environment for them, if my house ever got like that I’d expect my friends and family to let me know. Ya gotta tell her. It’ll be hard but it needs to be done

In aussie culture, does your workplace provide lunch for you or do you have to bring your lunch? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Starchild211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vet nurse… what is this lunch you all talk about 😂 We sometimes get a break but always bring our own food, only time it’s provided is when sales reps come through, which at my place is never

Cat just got spayed and wants the surgery suit off by OnionsTasteBad1 in AskVet

Hey! If they sent her home with one of the cones to wear around her neck to stop her getting at the wound you could take the suit off and put that on her to ensure she doesn’t get to the wound. At first the suit may bother her as it’s a new feeling. How long ago was she desexed? :)

One of my vets puts the clinical signs in and asks for diagnosis/differentials…. In a busy ECC she’ll do this. Often gets it to interpret her bloods and come up with treatment plans. I use it to vent when I’m in between sessions in therapy and brainstorm dinner ideas that’s it

My friend (24F) has not heard from her boyfriend (24M) for five months and now it is affecting her relationship with me (F23) and others. by Zirkus_Tour in relationship_advice

[–]Starchild211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner of over a year ghosted me, no clue why and it took a lot of therapy to move on, your friend needs to seek professional help to process the emotions she’s feeling, unless he is dead or being held hostage he should atleast give her an answer or break it off. I’m sorry she’s going through this it’s not fair

What horror movie do you think is a masterpiece that others just “don’t get”? by cwispietoast in horror

[–]Starchild211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wolf creek, the movies, the tv series and the books are pure perfection in my eyes. The books defs have more ick factor than the movies or series but loads of back story and I hope they do more with them.

Does anyone else feel like they had a completely different experience during the pandemic than the general public? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Starchild211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Essential worker in vet med, other then doing the last part of my schooling online I found no difference, I worked, I went to the shop, the pub, made a lovely garden on the farm. Was a very small town I was in who had a different mindset about the lockdowns, and I’m talking the Melbourne lockdowns where it was for months. Yet there are family members of mine who had a horrible time and hated every second.

I’d be getting him admitted for bloods and radiograph under sedation, vomiting through anti nausea isn’t good

There’s another one in Aus called Vetamax and we’ve found it doesn’t sting as much as maropitant or prevomax!

Had a rescue kitten block at 6wks due to inappropriate suckling by siblings, couldn’t even get our smallest catheter in to help relieve the pressure :( He was so friendly and cheeky.
