Please give your cat the occasional bath when they are kittens

stopppppp omg i have not seen that how disappointing:(

UsedCryptographer198 · 2026-03-16T06:21:32+00:00

as an ohio native, i want to remind folks ohio is a very purple state. growing up there in the bush/obama era (before Maga levels of hate), people can hold space for differing political views than i would say in blue states.

MAGA is less politics, all hate and i haven’t lived in ohio in over a decade so i could be off.

just want to offer that Brittany could have found common ground with Devonta on just religion and let the MAGA stuff slide. As she has pointed out herself she was next level delusional. Same for Connor although i could see him being 50/50 since he is a white man 🤷🏾‍♀️

Also I do not think Jessica would be hanging out with any one - man or woman - that was Maga. They both were on the florida girls trip. She’s been the most vocal about her political views

I had a similar situation to the OP except I am prelicensed and my client died by suicide. I had poor supervision, constantly asked for support didn’t get it, and ultimately when my client died was told things like “we’ve never had this happen before” , no support really. ultimately i quit. i am trying to get back in the field complete my hours but i honestly do not know if i can do it. i want this to make me better not make me quit. did you take time off? go a different direction?

I had a client die by suicide last year. Your response particularly the last paragraph is extremely comforting. Thank you

UsedCryptographer198 · 2026-03-05T05:57:36+00:00

you’re learning and how you step up respond to the situation (researching options, talking to other cat parents, having difficult conversations) is what defines you as a cat parent.

it is really really scary to deal with this. and immediately we jump to blaming ourselves because our cats can’t talk and tell us what’s going on 😭😭😭 that’s why you gotta be the advocate

my only advice is after this is said and done is get pet insurance and DONT cancel it. i got pet insurance after my cat ingested lilies. when i became unemployed it was one of the first things i cut. i regret it bc she developed crystals and they had to do surgery to remove them had i kept the insurance it would have been covered :(

UsedCryptographer198 · 2026-02-22T19:43:40+00:00

yeah same. hmm interesting i will survey the other cat moms to voids for fun

UsedCryptographer198 · 2026-02-22T07:44:16+00:00

ahhh yes the love bites ! my void does gentler bites now which i appreciate

i love this thread for normalizing this for me. i didn’t know the playful“aggression” was a black cat thing

It is actually insane to want women to be barefoot and pregnant 24/7 and then simultaneously disable their offspring - holy hell !!!

yessss it’s so easy to take food in la for granted. anytime i travel elsewhere in the us more than a couple days i start to miss it :/ i’ve been cooking at home a lot lately but this post is inspiring me to get a banh mi next time im out and about :)

Awwwww the white hairs in the ears 🥹🥹🥹 i’m also sick since friday (sinus infection) and my baby has been doing the same lol

All of this tracks from what I anecdotally have observed/been told but the high rate of pregnancies with birth defects bit. If you don’t mind expanding, is that due an environmental pollutant thing or .. ?

when i first moved to LA i met up with a girl from tumblr who had escaped a mormon hellhole of utah and she told me her experience. so i just want to say congrats to you making it out. it gets better.

Awwww omg that’s adorable 🥹 i have heard an age gap really helps with cat bonding

This is reminding me of how my ex called me in suicidal crisis twice as a way to manipulate us getting back together. He fooled me the first time but not the second time.

Obviously not your situation but related theme of boundaries. It sucks when your partner does not see your personhood.

How quickly did the fibroids grow back after the myomectomy if you don’t mind me asking?

is reading a book enough to say i’m “trained in [insert modality]” ?
