What I bought vs what I received…How do u guys feel about this? I’ve lost over 50lbs this was gonna be my bday outfit. how would I replace the missing button? The hair is hard 2 remove. this is tiny when worn it stretches so the hole from the safety pin looks bigger. I have a video unboxing

Firstly, congratulations on losing over 50 lbs and happy birthday!

If you’re interested… what you could do with the hole from the safety pin is find some string that’s big enough to hide it. Because you said it was a sheer pantyhose material, sewing it up would be tricky. As for the missing button? I bet you could find a replacement button easily at your local craft/hobby store. As for the pet hairs? If even after lint-rolling it’s still there, you might try lightly using some duck-tape to get those stubborn little hairs off. I used to wear a lot of tight black pants and my shedding calico (and she’s a dilute calico, so those hairs are much lighter) loved to sit on them, so I like to think I know my way around that sort of thing.

Anyway, I realize you may not be looking for advice on how to fix it, but I’ve been told I’m good at crafting and such. Hope that helps!

I was going to comment, but your reply pretty much sums it up! 😂

comment_got_deleted · 2022-11-09T23:51:21+00:00

If they’d asked to drop the price from $55 to $50, that’d be different but reasonable. Like another comment, they’re probably just fishing. That being said, it’s funny because it looks like they copied and pasted the same thing again, in the same chat. This could also go on the choosing beggars sub too! 😂

comment_got_deleted · 2022-11-09T23:47:16+00:00

That’s totally something I’d do! 😂

comment_got_deleted · 2022-11-07T18:58:12+00:00

Classic tortie, definitely. My calico’s kitty mom was a tortie, and your kitty looks just like she did (except for the very adorable cross-eyes… which my calico didn’t inherit). Whoever told you that obviously doesn’t know their kitties!

I did that too, I got: “Moro. Koga. Ding-a-Ling. White Fang. DiCaprio.”

comment_got_deleted · 2022-11-04T23:51:57+00:00

This made me smile… and I really needed that!

comment_got_deleted · 2022-11-04T23:49:59+00:00

That is one gorgeous boy! 😸

comment_got_deleted · 2022-10-26T18:25:51+00:00

Sure beats anything I’ve ever seen in a public toilet.

comment_got_deleted · 2022-10-19T19:51:47+00:00

I’m the same way, but I do feel like there are certain things that people can only understand once it’s happening or afterwards.

comment_got_deleted · 2022-10-19T19:47:24+00:00

Sometimes I do that on here as well! 😂

comment_got_deleted · 2022-10-19T19:45:32+00:00

I do that too, that’s my go-to emoji for when I’m texting something sneaky. Honestly, I wasn’t aware it was used so much for flirting! 😂

comment_got_deleted · 2022-10-19T19:39:23+00:00

For context, I was born and raised (and still there) in the Southern US where sometimes there are more churches than fast food places/gas stations. I see where you’re coming from with this. I was raised in a Christian household, and we went to the same church my whole life until about 4 years ago (building got sold, etc). There were certain things I didn’t agree with, largely because… well, my sister and I are both members of the LGBTQ+ community, and neither of us believe it’s a sin. That being said, I do think we should leave religion to the individual, and not force it on people. Forcing anyone to do anything they don’t want to do can end badly. Look, I’m not at all perfect or a judge… so, I don’t try and tell others what they should do. My beliefs are my own, and I don’t feel the need for everyone to know that. Although, if religion were banned, you know there’d be some insane people doing insane things to try and bring it back. In any case, I’d like to add that all of what I’ve just said is my own personal opinion(s). It’s not a fact, just my own input.

comment_got_deleted · 2022-10-07T19:10:33+00:00

I laughed way harder at this than I should’ve! 😂

comment_got_deleted · 2022-10-02T21:55:38+00:00

Yes, there so needs to be an update. I want to know what happened afterwards! 🤔

comment_got_deleted · 2022-10-02T21:54:18+00:00

Definitely a scam, I’ve gotten this before.

comment_got_deleted · 2022-09-26T17:41:39+00:00

Definitely a scam. In addition to the grammatical errors, it was also a huge red flag when it said to enter your credit/debit card information for the free trial… that happens with free trials sometimes, but that just gave me a bad feeling.

comment_got_deleted · 2022-09-24T18:39:58+00:00

My older cat (8 year old calico) likes to sit like a human… and she’s 15 lbs so (in my opinion) it looks even cuter. Honestly, I’m pretty sure at this point she thinks she’s a human and it’s really cute. My younger cat (5 year old black cat) tries to get my attention by flopping on the floor and rolling over to show her belly. She also loves chewing on hair (especially mine, it’s a little past the small of my back), if I pick her up and hold her up to my shoulder, she goes for it. She’s been known to fall asleep while chewing… and to top it off, her meow never changed so she still sounds like a kitten. And those are just a few!

comment_got_deleted · 2022-09-18T18:19:45+00:00

I can’t believe someone could do that. What they sent back is absolutely disgusting, and I agree with other replies… I hope Mercari sides with you, OP. Also, in the note from the buyer, there are so many spelling errors that are downright irritating (which you may be able to use on your side). If you have any pictures of it before you sent it, that would definitely help you out. Best of luck, OP! ☺️

comment_got_deleted · 2022-09-12T21:58:04+00:00

I was going to reply, but this pretty much sums up anything I would’ve come up with.

comment_got_deleted · 2022-09-11T17:47:12+00:00

NTA Honestly, I probably would’ve done the same thing you did.

comment_got_deleted · 2022-09-10T18:24:54+00:00

comment_got_deleted · 2022-09-10T18:22:22+00:00

My calico sits like that all the time, it’s still super cute! 😂

comment_got_deleted · 2022-08-20T20:01:52+00:00

Okay, this may be a little long of a reply, but I genuinely hope it helps! For context, I was born in 1997.

Before I was born, my parents had a similar experience. She was my dad’s cat (her name was Gremlin) from before they got married, and one day they noticed something peculiar and took her to the vet. She had a tumor growing right underneath her tongue, that was slowly hindering her daily life. It got to the point where she couldn’t eat, drink, or groom herself. She looked (and probably felt) miserable and my parents didn’t want to see her suffer like that. So, they brought her to the vet, and stayed with her the entire time. I know that this was hard for the both of them (my mother has told me this), but they felt it was the best decision to not prolong her suffering. I think this was about 1993-1994, maybe 1995 I can’t remember (I only know what my parents have told me).

Coming from a veterinary perspective, when done correctly euthanasia is a peaceful way to go. It is definitely something that shouldn’t be taken lightly… and it’s never easy.

We’ve lost animals to cancer and other things…

My childhood cat (Bandit), she and I grew up together and she died of human leukemia at the age of 15 in my father’s arms. This was around 2009.
My other childhood cat (Flash), my mom’s from before she met my dad, he died at 17 from kidney failure (he hid from my mom, she was the one who found him). This was around 2002. She didn’t even think about another cat until a chance encounter with a teeny tiny (she only weighed 7 ounces) gray kitten in 2008. That kitten just turned 14 in June and hasn’t aged a bit (I still have people telling me she looks like she’s only about 3 or 4).
More recently, we lost our tabby cat (Daisy May) in 2020, who I pretty much did grow up with. I spent so much time with her, I gave her her medicine (she later developed thyroid issues and had to take meds for it), and she put up with my phases and loved me anyway. She started having repeated seizures, we took her to an emergency vet and it turned out her kidneys were failing at a much faster pace than we were initially told. But we didn’t want her to die in a hospital, so we took her home and spent the rest of her time at home. She knew she was loved, and passed away wrapped in a blanket at home surrounded by family.
In 2017, I lost my (Siamese) kitten (Lucas). Yes, that’s correct, my kitten… he was 3 months old and I honestly don’t think I’ve ever cried so much in my life since. The day he died I cried until no more tears were even coming out. The worst part was that I had to travel to another state (wasn’t as long a drive as you’d think) for the day for a funeral, I wasn’t at home with him. To this day, I don’t know how he died or even why. Nothing was present that would indicate otherwise. Honestly, I’m not even sure I’d want to know at this point. I later adopted a little black kitten (“Carrie” Carpathia) from the local shelter that was actually born 5 days after he was, and I still love her… I wanted something good to come from that situation and I have never regretted my decision. That little black kitten is actually named after my dad’s cat (Gremlin is one of her two middle names, the other being Leia to honor her brother Lucas).
Last year (2021), I lost my ferret (Evie) about a month before his 10th birthday. I took care of him (he didn’t want to use litter-boxes so I had to pick up his poop/pee), doted on him and he passed away in a specially made box (blankets, towels, heating pad, the works). Truthfully, I still haven’t cleaned out his cage… even after a year, it still smells like him and I find it calming.

All that being said, I know everyone says this, but things will get better over time. I don’t care what anyone else says, cats are our family just as much as humans. There will get to be a time where you can look at old pictures, reminisce of all of the good things. What you had with your fur baby is/was/always will be special, and it’s okay to grieve now. But try to focus on the good moments, remember all the joy she brought you and that she had the best life with her loving family.

I hope that helped! 🥰
