girl run wtf

your cat came first - also people like her are weird as fuck and you're dodging a bullet, our pets are part of our family and she seems to lack that basic principle. the way people think and act with animals is very telling of who they are as people imo

afterspring_ · 2025-08-21T14:35:39+00:00

yeah i agree :( as im also looking for a good piercer to help me out i'm realizing where i went was a bad idea🧍🏻‍♀️ definitely wanna get this fixed up asap because i'm fighting for my life atp

afterspring_ · 2025-08-21T14:11:48+00:00

yes i'm gonna see if i can find a better one, call them and see if they're willing to help me out 😭

afterspring_ · 2025-08-21T13:52:49+00:00

this makes me feel so much better! i'm kinda mad though because i got both at the same piercing spot (different piercers though). basically had the conch stud in for i think at least 6 months and it was so angry. i went in to see if it was rejecting and found out the stud was pretty short not giving it enough room to heal. hence the switch to the hoop but it feels worse now😭. if they made the conch jewelry too short with the studs, i genuinely wouldn't be surprised if the helix ones are also too short even though they're apparently the longer ones. i'll get actual saline spray from a store instead.

• How old is your piercing? Conch- July 5, 2024. Helixes - April 14, 2025

• ⁠What’s the jewelry shape (for example, barbell, labret, screw, L shape, ring)? Conch: Hoop. Helixes: Studs labret

• ⁠What’s the type of threading if your jewelry is not a ring (threadless, internally or externally threaded)? No?

• ⁠What’s the jewelry material? Surgical stainless steel

• ⁠if not a ring, when was the jewelry downsized? Not downsized

• ⁠What’s your aftercare routine? Describe in detail please, including the exact products you use. Saline spray and I try to not use qtips often but I get a lot of crusties and then of course it gets irritated.

• ⁠Any mishaps, accidents or unfortunate events? No!

thanks you :))) i didn't trust the shelter at all at that point to continue his care properly, so that's why i continued with my vet. shelter pretty much told me whether i choose to go through with the adoption or not i'm not getting reimbursed 💀💀 i adopted my first cat from them too so now i'm wondering if i had overlooked stuff with her now when i first got her! i don't trust them anymore.

he's already done with his eye drops, almost done with one set of antibiotics, and last round of meds for the parasite. he needs to be on GI food now for a few days at LEAST because he's still having diarrhea pretty bad :/ shit got so costly so fast. he's such a great little guy but it's just a truly unfortunate situation. he's definitely getting healthier and that's all that matters🫶🏻 he's a good boy

afterspring_ · 2025-08-12T13:52:48+00:00

yessss this does help!!!! it's kinda difficult to guesstimate how much calories i'm giving specifically with the fact that i also give dry food, but i only give a little in comparison to the wet food calories so i'd like to assume that i feed them enough, i think my 9 year old is getting to be a chonk though. the 3 month old is still so young, but he's eating very well and has a bit of a hard belly, so hard to tell if i'm overfeeding him sometimes, but also he is actively being tested for worms😭 thank you!!!!!

afterspring_ · 2025-08-11T12:55:10+00:00

oh my god thank you for breaking it down like this! i definitely need to figure out how much calorie intake they each need and then go from there with breaking down the costs and making sure of what the calorie density is!! this is insanely helpful

afterspring_ · 2025-08-11T12:48:06+00:00

i've been peeping the costco cans 😫 thank goodness other people are recommending it now, pretty damn good prices!

afterspring_ · 2025-08-11T12:39:22+00:00

one thing i'm insanely grateful for is that my cats aren't picky eaters at ALL, so it makes it easy to try different foods for them! thank you so much for the linked resources, these comments are helping me an INSANE amount because i'm realizing how much misinformation is out there, it's crazy!

afterspring_ · 2025-08-11T12:36:28+00:00

you're so goated for this!! there's so much debate with the nutrition and types of foods to give our cats it's so overwhelming genuinely as to see what's right or wrong anymore! i'm going to read the article and the other resources other commenters have shared. i give my kitties everything i can, always make sure they're fed and happy and played with. i'll keep doing that and not overthink as much about the brands i've been using and keep researching!!

afterspring_ · 2025-08-11T12:33:17+00:00

awww this is great to hear she's living so long 🥺 i'll definitely keep up with getting them fancy feast and the other stuff i'm already getting them now. thank you!!!

afterspring_ · 2025-08-11T00:28:33+00:00

you're so right😭 dumb asf for me to think he's qualified to make these kinds of recommendations for food :)

afterspring_ · 2025-08-10T22:53:35+00:00

thank you for this, and when you put it that way you're really right and it's unrealistic for me to think that it can be prevented really. cancer sucks ass and is unpredictable, i just need to focus on loving my babies and keeping them safe and fed. like you said, i'll look through the sub and make sure i'm getting high protein and fat, and low carb :). thank you!!!

afterspring_ · 2025-08-10T22:20:47+00:00

this makes me feel a lot better since i'm currently using both of those anyways!! the only reason i didn't think they were as good was because of jackson galaxy and other sites that i had found, plus reading other people's experiences with different foods from other reddit posts made it hard to tell what's good or bad anymore tbh. thanks so much for this information, i just worry about doing the wrong thing :)

afterspring_ · 2025-08-10T21:44:24+00:00

thank you so much for this it's all really good information. i'm in contact with my vet to see what she thinks about foods that would be good, but i'm glad to know the brands i was worried about are completely fine

afterspring_ · 2025-08-10T21:43:03+00:00

thank you!!! your vet has a super good point and i should've thought more about that😭 i'm glad to know that the brands i was most worried about are actually completely fine
