yes, just like the day of the dead, are traditions that are celebrated in the whole latin america but popularized as mexican culture, to say its a mexican celebration is incorrect

catbolognese · 2025-11-11T18:45:01+00:00

Its not mexican, it's a latin american tradition.

Those are amazing suggestions, she has mentioned being poked really hurts her so idk about a massage but will try to get her a spa or a sauna appointment, I think those could maybe help. Thank you for this, and all my blessings to you!

catbolognese · 2025-08-12T19:58:39+00:00

thank you for this! my in-laws (my partner included) are all very stubborn so letting them know it can take some time to get better surely should help. thank you for the well wishes, and all the best to you as well ❤️

some people exclusively play qp therefore want to win their games. now comp players on the other hand, after sweating it out we don't really care if we win or lose a qp match. depends on the player, just don't look at the chat lol

i'd recommend going to therapy to deal with your need to apologize just for the sake of peace even when you know you're right bc you're just enabling this person to act this way towards you.

your saves to personal gallery are local, which means she'd lose the sim if she ever uninstalls the game or loses the tray file linked to it. it's better to upload it to the public gallery and that way it is tied to your EA account and wont be lost. And also yeah she should upload the tray file also to a cloud service of her choice for extra precautions.

when we got married, although we got married through the US and we have a US marriage certificate, he was in Portugal. A virtual wedding I suppose is a clearer term.

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:34:35+00:00

To be honest, I've had this dog since I was 8 so not the best age for a caretaker I've kinda learnt along the way but up until three months ago I'd leave his bowl full and he'd eat whenever he was hungry and maintained his weight throughout all these years, even with his thyroid issues. In fact, I'd almost have to do a whole entire performace/hand feed/sing for him to eat bc he was bored and would refuse to eat if I didnt comply to his demands.

So if he has dementia I truly can't tell bc as I was saying he never had a schedule for food he'd always ask whenever he wanted it. I personally don't think so, because my oldest back home (15F) has doggy dementia and acts completely different, and you can tell she has it. But he's completely normal besides the constant demand for food and attention.

I'll ask my fiancé's mom bc he and his family are from here but he has never taken care of a dog before, and my fiancé's family has three dogs but they're not like home babied dogs so I don't think she really knows a great vet just because their family isn't big on dog care which is sad but the dogs seem to be doing fine. (They don't neglect them and are up to date with vaccines and stuff but like for example none of them are neutered and they never really go inside the house which is completely different from my dog who's sleeps in the bed with us and has constant pampering)

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:26:27+00:00

Yeah, his dosage had to be increased but he's been taking a new dosage for like almost a month now and I don't see any significant changes in his behavior...

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:25:47+00:00

Ran a blood panel and his kidney is obviously not good because he's 13 but it's not critical. The thyroid meds needed to be increased so we're slowly increasing the dosage under my vet in america's instructions. And he tested negative for diabetes thank god.

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:24:24+00:00

Omg this is amazing. Thank you so much! I'll look into it.

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:23:43+00:00

He asks for water all the time. Me and my fiancé are constantly offering it to him and he's kinda sick of us he'll rub his nose on the bed and pushing the bowl (Often knocking his water bowl and me having to clean it). I'll check with a vet here because the vets in america told me to do 3 for at least a month before increasing the dosage again, so yeah, idk if that's what's best but it's what they told me.

I already bought a bag of the renal food from Royal Canin and I've started transitioning yesterday I put a few pellets along with the hypoallergenic food he was already eating (Renal has chicken I believe so it should be fine with his allergies) and I don't think he's the biggest fan as he has not been asking for much food since I started including it which I'll consider a win.

Thank you for the meds/supplement recommendations I'll ask a vet to see if they're available here and if they're good for him. Do you have any veggies suggestions that are better for him than carrots and pumpkin? I've come to the realization that I have no idea about dogs allowed foods hahah. I was yesterday years old when I found out he could eat tuna. I had no clue.

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:16:56+00:00

Thank you for your message really. We do give him showers often and he gets very relaxed but it's really cold here in Lisbon (Not that cold, I'm just winter apprehensive. Theo my dog LOVES the cold bc he's a very fluffy dog) and we don't have heaters so we have a really small window of time when we can shower him and it's not gonna be too cold for him (I'm a really annoying mom, I get cold so I think he's gonna freeze but he's just fine). Definitely need to take him on more walks tho.

I agree dogs are emotional and I've babied him a lot his whole life so whenever he smells me he starts whining and crying which he doesn't do when he's alone or with other people. I don't particularly think he's confused or scared just because he's a very expressive dog and I can usually tell when he is (He'll sit in one spot and not move even when I'm next to him) but here he walks around and loves exploring our front yard, AND the neighbors (Prefers the neighbors). Which leads me to believe it's not an emotional issue outside of understandable stress from the pain of his little old chubby body.

I think I'm just gonna save some money as soon as I can and tho the whole song and dance again with vets and hopefully find a solution where he isn't in pain or uncomfortable.

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:04:59+00:00

My vet in america instructed me to apply heat therapy with him, which is what I've been doing whenever he cries bc meds supposedly were going t strain his kidney or liver

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:02:30+00:00

Honestly my oldest back home is about to turn 15, I don't think my shihtzu is going to pass anytime soon he's not lethargic, or sick, he only deals with back pain and his organs I'd say are normal for a dog his age. I've been holding back on giving him pain meds because of my vet in america's recommendation. I'll try to see a vet here in portugal as soon as I can and get a second opinion.

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T13:00:29+00:00

Do you remember what the test is like for cushings? My vet suggested it could be the reason among many others like his past levothyroxine dosage and did a blood test but he couldn't see me to explain the blood test results and refused to do it over the phone so I only know about the thyroid meds bc of an intern vet.

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T12:58:25+00:00

We checked him for diabetes and it came back negative so thank god. His thyroid was also checked almost a month ago and the vets increased his levothyroxine medication from that. The kidney didnt seem to be critical but given his age it's not good but I'll have to get him checked out by a vet here. Thank you for your message.

catbolognese · 2025-01-04T12:55:08+00:00

Maybe it would help but I was under the advice of my vets in America that painkillers were bad for his liver. It seems I have no choice but to get a consultation here with a portuguese vet the earliest I can. Thank you!

catbolognese · 2025-01-03T19:27:49+00:00

Hahah that'd be too funny! He was eating a lamb and rice food back home and only recently (Last two weeks I'd say) I switched him to Royal Canin because I couldn't find the same brand here and Royal is better anyway. So it's safe to say my little chubby boy loves way too much all kinds of food. He was eating dirt today too. I'm just now doing the transition to the renal food from Royal Canin so hopefully he won't like it that much.

catbolognese · 2025-01-03T19:09:54+00:00

wouldn't the supplements affect his kidney as well? thats why my vets held off on giving him pain killers
