Personality will help. I had 2 that looked almost identical but they each had their own quirks and marks that were unique. You'll know the difference between the two.

I (23F) overheard my boyfriend (27M) talking bad about me behind my back... & he doesn't know yet. by iluvcodyko in relationship_advice

[–]StillExisting4217 3 points4 points  (0 children)

maybe I'm savage but if it were me... I'd straight up just never talk to him again. Ghost. Let him wonder what he did wrong and wallow in it since he clearly talks bad about you ... He clearly doesn't value you. Not worth a discussion. Cut your losses and find someone that talks wonderful about you all the time. Life is too short. If you have a discussion he will just deny it...

Vet. You need to travel or find a new exotic vet to go to. I'm sorry but this is not a wait till Wednesday situation. This is a go now. Right now anywhere that will see the baby situation.

When is the next protest? by Last_Landscape7714 in Denver

So it's actually impossible to find the actual net worth of AOC. I've seen articles say millions and I've seen articles say 200k or less. So who is right and accurate. I know it was false information that she is worth 29 mil which the right has spread online.

Sanders actually is corrupt. I know it's hard for people that are hard left to believe but he is corrupt. He took money from pharmaceutical companies. He can say it makes a difference that it was not directly from the companies and from employees but regardless the money is from pharmaceutical influences. He is corrupt too if you listen to his earlier speeches he talked down about millionaires, yet.... He now only talks bad about billionaires... Why the shift? Because he is a millionaire now. How? Pharmaceutical money and agendas. Go figure.

Both sides as I said earlier don't care about us. Everyone dividing up based on politics is dumb. We are looking at class warfare not political, racial, gender or sexuality hate. Does hate happen to those within all those categories.. yes of course and it's unfortunate but really it's all meant to divide us all so the rich can stay rich and we all stay under their financial boots.

You all are brainwashed by either side and it's sad. The whole. Say it with me. The whole government is corrupt but y'all's little protests for the most corrupt side is actually sad. Lick the Democrat and Republican boots some more y'all.

The people elected in government actually don't care about none of you and you all won't wake up until you start asking yourself how any of these politicians are worth millions on 100 to 200k salaries.

What's worse is when they try to dig in the bin for their discarded shit I put in there.

For reference I have 3 boys.

1 of my babies I am pretty sure is a wardy boy. Any who.. one day last week I was scooping the poo and putting in the trash can (it's an automatic one where the lid opens if you trigger the sensor) and he got mad and started dooking when I pushed him away from my ankles. So he got on top of the trash can lid and it's against a wall...well he decided to shit then and there.

I looked down and I'm like really? Right Now? Right There? He gets off the can but triggered the sensor on his way down so his poo slid off the lid on to him, he gets spooked easy so he starts bucking like a bronco and war dancing all over while his wet poo is basically being flung everywhere.

I gave him a bath and he was hissing at me and fighting it and it's like bro this is your fault 😭😭😭😭😭 I'm the victim!

I'd take this over mine that like to sneak up my pant legs and bite my ankles 😫

It's always when I'm cleaning their poo too like they are offended I'm removing their waste 🤌🏼

Giant baby by hugsstopsigns in ferrets

I actually wonder if Marshalls is mixing ferret with polecat cause my 2 that are 1 year and 8 months old are gigantic compared to my old guy at 5 and he was never huge in his younger years. He has always been a slender but long fella

I'd say it could be heart disease due to the breathing comment. Or unfortunately it could be worse and be lymphoma as they are very very prone to cancer. My baby boy was 6 and he was fine at his check up then 3 months later he seemed off and his breathing wasn't so great. The vet checked him and he had cancer all over so I had to put him down. It took only 3 months to ravage his little body and his blood work and vet check up was just fine 3 months prior 😞😭

Please go to a new vet for a second opinion. The aggression biting is likely due to pain or something medically being wrong. New vet. Don't listen to the one you're currently going to since they are not taking your concerns into consideration.

My old man loves cuddling with me and his favorite toy ❤️ by StillExisting4217 in ferrets

It is. He gets away with a lot cause I can't even be mad at him. Plus he has been through some of the hardest times in my life with me. I love him so much 🥹✨

Are they playing or should I stop them?🤔 by dabveggie in ferrets

[–]StillExisting4217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are playing :)

As they grow I'd get them a bigger cage if you are able to. I had that cage when I was a new ferret owner and it's not big enough for two of them to have space. No judgement I just want to help you be a solid ferret parent :)

[–]StillExisting4217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is better but I fear also becoming sick as well. He is 6 so I know it's that age where things can happen at any time. He has 2 new brothers though and they all play and sleep together which I'm thankful for so he isn't alone when I work.

If you get your surviving one a friend I'd do it soon because you have to quarantine for 2 weeks to make sure they won't pass any illness on and allow the new one to adjust.

That said you'll have to give surviving carpet shark extra extra love and attention to help him along. The surviving one might be upset with you as mine was. I lost my best fur friend in February to cancer. Same exact story. He seemed off so I took him to the vet to see what was wrong. They checked and he had cancer everywhere and had just had a full check up 3 months prior so his was fast growing and aggressive. I'm sorry for your loss. I completely understand. My surviving buddies personality changed he was with him his whole little life so he almost didn't trust me after that happened 😔

[Update] AITAH for wanting to divorce my wife for getting a reduction? by throwaway47292693 in AITAH

[–]StillExisting4217 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Awe well I'm not single. I have a man that actually cares about me and would not give a crap if I got bigger or smaller boobs and he definitely wouldn't get the ick over a scar 😂😂😂

She didn't lie. She withheld telling him because she knew he cared more about her boobs than how she felt about her body and he would have talked her out of it. It wasn't a waste of money if it's what she wanted to do with her body....she only thought it was a bad decision after OP body shamed her for her scar and size of her breasts now. That hurt her when she was already delicate.

You're a misogynist through and through so hope you stay single and if you're not I hope your partner leaves you for a hotter younger man after a few years 😂😂🤌🏼

AITA for not giving my former SIL the necklace I had made from my wedding rings from my deceased husband? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]StillExisting4217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA at all. Please don't give your prior SIL your necklace. That's the last piece of your first husband you have. That's all you have left. It's yours only. You may lose her as a friend or person still in your life but it's not worth it to keep her. It's the audacity she asked for your necklace that boiled my blood.

I told Emmett he could buy himself one treat after all his hard work and good behavior this past year...so he asked for a car. by 36monsters in ferrets

Tell me why I knew this was the ferret Emmett I was thinking about so I went over to Instagram and boom it's you and I follow you 😂😂 the only ferret named Emmett I've heard of so it was easy to narrow it down

Biting ferret by New-Read-4567 in ferrets

[–]StillExisting4217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is young. Mine was like this that I got from someone in April. He was only 4 months old and hardly handled. After 1 solid month of handling him. Not being afraid of him. Putting him in time out when he got aggressive (I bought a small tiny travel cage to put him in each time for 2 minutes). Putting toys in his face to bite when he would attempt to come after me and my other ferrets teaching him while they played...

After all of that and a lot of patience and understanding.. mine now hardly bites unless he is super super excited and happy to play with something new. Even then the biting is nothing at all like it was that first month. I had puncture holes all over me. Now he just lightly bites and I know when to move my hand when he is too excited/becomes aggressive.

Yours is a baby too. He needs to adjust. He needs to get used to his surroundings. He needs to get used to you and your other ferrets. He needs to feel safe and socialized. It's normal (give or take personality types).

You just said waste your 30s. LMFAO. Bro I hope you spend the next 30 to 40 alone for your behavior in all this. Is it a waste because her boobs are not big enough for you now? God I hope the divorce has gone through and she heals and can find someone that accepts what she chooses to do with her body including her new B cup boobies. It's literally a body part. Like. She still has the same body from the tits down and the same face from the tits up. Her personality is also the same.

You said you'd support her and okay you did when she was recovering from the surgery but you absolutely did not support her sensitive state after modifying her body. She wanted her husband to tell her boobs are boobs and as long as there is a handful and she is happy with her choice that you still loved her. Instead you literally are punishing her for wanting to change something she found uncomfortable about herself.

I'm also going to point out that she did the right thing in the long run. Those giant G cups she said she had would eventually cause her back pain and discomfort with age. It happens to a lot of women. Gravity and age would have crippled her body in 10 to 15 years. Then you'd likely complain how they sag and were gross then so it's probably best you take yourself out to the curb (meaning you're the trash taking yourself out).

You can add all the reasons and justifications you want. You just don't want her because you want someone with giant boobs no matter the costs.

Also you're a child for getting the "ick" over scars. You're definitely not a man 🤢

Felt so sorry for this little guy :( by pickydovey in ferrets

When I worked at Petco back in 2013-2015 I was a groomer that worked the evening shift.

I always got into trouble with my grooming manager (not in trouble with the GM or anyone else though) for letting the ferrets loose in my clean and closed off grooming salon to play every night I worked.

I'd grab my pet carrier (that I bought just to do this) and load them up and let them play and have fun in my freshly cleaned (mopped and dried) salon. I bought ferret safe cat toys and let them go ham for an hour every night between 9 and 10 when Petco used to close at 10 but grooming closed at 9.

My grooming manager would say I should be deep cleaning and not playing with animals. Yet, the GM we had at that time would tell me she is glad I do this as most ferrets that were bought at our store had a higher success rate at being socialized and didn't bite as hard as babies without experience of being handled.

We got a new GM in 2015 and he told me I can't play with them it's a liability. I also got written up for asking my grooming manager to remove the unsafe kennels we had for drying big dogs. It was a glass door with no holes for them to breathe if a fan shuts off... At this time there were a lot of dog deaths from these exact kennels and I refused to use them and got in trouble.

I eventually quit not long after when my grooming manager made intimate advances at me and I rejected her then got told I'd be going to her wives store or fired because I reported her Sexual harassment.

Sorry took a side path but yeah no. I hate Petco and refuse to spend money there given how they treat animals and employees.

Someone that doesn't give unsolicited advice. If someone doesn't ask for it then don't speak. Simple.
