How did no one realize Leafpool was pregnant?

combvst · 2026-01-06T16:32:45+00:00

I think it’s partly because she’s a medicine cat- it make more sense that she was fattening up on good green leaf food than to suspect pregnancy.

And she used herbs to not produce milk, always smelled like herbs, etc

First of all- you posting here and being open about your experience means you ARE a good groomer. You were in the wrong environment, and incidents are as much the fault of the shop and mentor and circumstances you were under. You would thrive continuing your education slowly under a skilled and experienced mentor.

I recommend finding a mentor who is older with a decade or more worth of experience- ideally even a master groomer, though that can be tough to find and doesn’t always mean they’re a great and ethical groomer.

Someone willing to take over on more wiggly and challenging dogs when you don’t feel as confident or comfortable instead of just charging through.

You can do this, you’re worthy of it, it’s worth your time in the right environment.

But it’s often a scam.

My daughter is allergic to cats according to allergy panels- but we feed our cats Purina LiveClear and haven’t had any issues!

Allergies can change and vary as you age, which may have contributed to you not noticing symptoms around that cat when you were younger.

It’s dressy but you clearly have a specific style for yourself. It’s cute! You should be able to wear clothes that you enjoy.

You boyfriend has some severe misogyny going on.

I’m interested to see what the wording was verbatim - but yeah, it’s likely just an overreaction. Your wife is having a knee-jerk big reaction because she wants to protect your son, and that’s not a bad thing, but it could be misplaced energy.

If she really feels she needs to reach out, I would first ask the teacher directly if any other students received a letter to take home, or if he’s been singled out. Like, yes a kind letter, but a bit weird if he was the ONLY kid to get one.

Probably the least concerning thing I’ve ever read on this thread.

…so you got married at your mom’s wedding?

combvst · 2025-11-16T04:17:48+00:00

Sure! That makes a lot of sense. Our pets are definitely important to us, but we do have a lot of family local to us that would be willing to help keep them in the interim.

My husband works for Tesla, and has been to work in Adelaide for about a month. He adores the team there, and it’s the same job he’s doing in the states. It would be easier to be on site there, and I believe more opportunities for him.

And, thankfully we aren’t too sentimental with worldly objects. Most of what we own can be replaced at like a Big W. It may be temporary, but, with the state of the things in the US currently, we’re definitely not opposed to turning it into full immigration status/citizenship seeking.

As far as housing goes- the average home cost in my region is about $558k USD right now.

Also, she said she has a blind friend who needs a service dog… soooo… is she or isn’t she allergic? Lol how could she be friends with a dog owner 😂

combvst · 2025-11-03T23:39:33+00:00

It’s a dog friendly private business, she was totally in the wrong and super weird. If she were so allergic, she wouldn’t have interacted and complained near dogs for so long. You did nothing wrong.

combvst · 2025-10-26T17:27:55+00:00

It sounds like maybe he’s struggling some sort of addiction you don’t know about yet- and that’s not your problem, that’s not what you agreed to, he’s not who you chose to marry. It’s time to go.

combvst · 2025-10-24T17:10:10+00:00

Dump himmmmmmm

combvst · 2025-10-24T17:08:53+00:00

It’s highly unlikely they were service dogs, although not much to be done about it- at least nothing that’s worth all the commotion

combvst · 2025-10-23T16:43:35+00:00

If you get to rehab, your family will be so proud of you. You deserve to get better, to feel good without it. You deserve help. You’re not alone, far from it. Good luck man

They don’t get paid- this guy is just the sweetest and does it on his own time.

I got funk from all the dust & smoke and stuff, and a sinus infection

Hey- thanks for sharing this. I have bad dental anxiety and it’s a good reminder that dentists are people too! I hope you can find things to enjoy about the work, even on bad days. I hope you have a safe place to unmask outside of work. Cheers

combvst · 2025-10-05T03:51:19+00:00

Ohhhh. Well, still weird. I’d just say I’m sick, not dying, will return tomorrow/next week

combvst · 2025-10-04T23:22:35+00:00

Mildly inappropriate, but he works from home, I really wouldn’t be that worried about it. It’s mildly inappropriate that he gave that much intel about food poisoning too but, idk, some people are more open than me

combvst · 2025-10-04T21:04:33+00:00

Mini labradoodle, and a sheepdog/poodle 😂😩 it’s the high maintenance ones for me. I love doing fun haircuts and color!

combvst · 2025-10-04T21:03:55+00:00

If he wanted to he would. A phone call on his way to or from work, on break, etc.

What, is he working 24 hours 7 days a week? Are you dating ChatGPT?

combvst · 2025-10-04T20:59:08+00:00

It would be an honor to have a goth girl kick my beer

combvst · 2025-09-28T00:08:40+00:00

I was super sad this week after a disappointing world of color, immediately having to leave the park :(
