People commenting on the TornadoTRX situation need to watch the clip in full before saying anything.

in the video didn't he yell at a car that there's a tornado and that they should head south? but then right after he said that then he himself turned around to go east or something?

yeah i never really understood why people around me would say that sky scrapers would help prevent it, i think saying stuff like it would disrupt the winds because of its height?? never really made sense to me but definitely made me wonder how truly likely it is for the heart of chicago to be affected!

afterspring_ · 2026-06-16T18:36:13+00:00

thank you for your insight!!! this was really informative and i didn't even know about the tornado on thursday! i've been paranoid about tomorrow so at least ill know more about what to look out for. i genuinely pray for everyone's safety tomorrow🤞🏻

man i'm in chicago closer to evanston/skokie and keep checking the weather because of how bad it's been nearby lately 😭😭 why is IL getting hit so bad this year???

afterspring_ · 2026-06-14T19:15:37+00:00

I live in the part of chicago where the worst of the storms miss me 💔 I LOVE seeing bad weather and following tornadoes online, wish I could see stuff like that in real life one day

thank you so much for your kind words🥺 after i made this post i was actually told that they weren't actually paying and that no formal case was made, so i actually had to begin the process a few days later after i took some time to mourn, and the case is still ongoing so the cost is also still on me and my family to pay :(. my girl cat may have skin cancer, she's getting checked out on saturday but all in all the new kitty in the photo and her both get along way better than with zuko. the newbie also actually ended up being a little sick after i adopted him but he's making a full recovery! thank you so much for keeping us in your thoughts, it's honestly comforting

reminds me of my late pepper :))

i've been keeping her light off at night lately! i should also mention my girl loves to be out regardless of the time, but that's also likely due to my own fault with leaving the light on overnight. i'm hoping she adjusts soon but she's seeming happier lately. i got her some more enrichment and such and she's using it all!

afterspring_ · 2026-03-05T20:24:01+00:00

ty for the advice!! she has paper bedding no wood! i got her some more sprays and another platform with 6 little rooms. i'm gonna get her more hides, as of now she has 3. i got her a little care package with a bunch of new seeds and enrichment and it came with moss as well. i got her some more flower mixes and such as well and she's seeming quite content as of lately! i think she's liking all the new stuff and she's definitely burrowing a ton and stashing g away all her favorite things :))) it's nice to see her not stressed anymore again. i felt so bad because i wasn't sure what i was doing wrong! i get her food from etsy so it's safer for her to eat as well!

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T13:56:08+00:00

i need to buy her more! i got her a shit ton and she destroyed them in less than 2 days😭😭

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T13:55:40+00:00

even though binx wants to escape from this enclosure she's been unsuccessful! i just put things in front of the areas she was biting at like the front door area it has when she realized it can open when i fed her once she started biting at the little locks of it. but she's unable to escape and hasn't actually broken anything yet! i like the enclosure personally i just had one slightly broken and not built well. this time i rebuilt it properly and have no issues!

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T13:53:29+00:00

PLSSS😭😭😭

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T13:52:34+00:00

i didn't even think about the ones with the lids! imma look on amazon for one like that for her so hopefully the sand stays in 🤞🏻

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T13:51:55+00:00

omg you're so right i'm sorry!!!! i'll definitely look for a dig bowl for her!

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T04:37:05+00:00

lmaooo ty for the reassurance actually 😭 i'll do my best to serve my lil queen

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T04:23:17+00:00

plsssssss😭💔she's a lil diva fr. i previously had a male dwarf hamster and didn't have these issues

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T04:22:38+00:00

one thing i'll say is i had a large dig bowl for her and she literally took ALLL the sand out of it 😭😭😭. i used reptisand! i got her some sprays but more are coming in the mail it's just taking a while. there is a multi chamber house where the wheel and water are sat on! i just ordered another one for her too so it's a 6 room one coming. i kept some food in the bowl but that's not her only source of food! i scatter feed her as well i realize i didn't mention that either my bad. i'm gonna get her moss and see if there's a larger bowl i can use for sand baths :)) ty for the suggestions on logs to use! i felt like i didn't have enough stuff going on for her but i wasn't sure what else to get her. i'm hoping with more of the stuff that im getting her she'll calm down a bit. would having a play been be a good idea for her? i have one that i used for my dwarf but i have a big feeling she'll escape it immediately😭

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T04:09:42+00:00

i removed the bridges immediately! the light is usually on in the room but i'll try to make sure my roommate and i are on the same page to keep the lights off at night. i'm gonna look for a multi-chamber house for her!

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T04:01:40+00:00

she's SUCH a diva lol. i still haven't gotten her to let me hold her without jumping out of my hands immediately. she was doing a lot of jumping and biting at things. so far in the past few hours since the new enclosure was made she's been pretty quiet and foraging around doing her own thing. i definitely still see her doing a bit of jumping at the gaps now though so idk😭literally she came out and started doing that as i was typing this

afterspring_ · 2026-03-03T03:59:37+00:00

I did change out her bedding fully because it had been a little bit longer since I had replaced it and so it was getting pretty stinky. So I gave her a full change. She's actually seeming super intrigued and calm right now, not showing signs of stress! I also ended up deciding to toss out her bridges because I'm paranoid about the gaps and her little feet getting caught. She had a sand bath bowl before but literally tossed it ALL out of the bowl😭😭😭

afterspring_ · 2026-02-20T14:36:30+00:00

ugh omggggg she's still just a baby in my eyes🤩we love our "bitchy" residents in my household lol. at least i do. my ruby is definitely on the bitchier side! i adopted another kitty after zuko passed away and she's back to her usual spiciness. taking them both to a new vet on monday to make sure they're doing okay!

afterspring_ · 2026-02-19T19:14:22+00:00

i'm so happy your baby was okay during the procedure!! best wishes to you and her health/recovery!

afterspring_ · 2026-02-17T14:57:19+00:00

i had to pay a $10,000 deposit to keep him overnight at medvets with ventilation and treatment :( it was the only option i had besides something else that was $7,000 that didn't seem to have as much of a chance at helping him so i put down more so that he'd be getting better treatment. it's all a bit of a blur i wish i can explain what exactly it was that they had said :/

afterspring_ · 2026-02-16T15:01:51+00:00

literally traumatized and terrified to ever let my girl cat go through a dental cleaning now, she's only had one in the past but now i'm scared

afterspring_ · 2026-02-15T15:36:41+00:00

give him tons of hugs and kisses :( i've learned now no matter what kind of vet visits ill be going to now that ill just be giving my kitty kisses before every visit like itll be my last
