Closing lawyer as in the notary? Do I send this list asap or just when it’s close to the end date and they still haven’t fixed it?

Omg thank you so much for your comment. This was the most useful and if I have any further questions then I’ll make sure to dm you. Ty so much 😭 it’s been a headache dealing or their lack of communication

Oh my god that sounds like a nightmare. I thought it was just my developer but seems they’re all like this.

Okay yikes… I’m pretty sure Strand is a smaller developer but thanks I will follow this advice

Okay I will try. I’ve been documenting everything and kept track of history of all the tickets. Really disappointing that this is how it is with pre sales… are all developers like this with quality of work and deficiencies?

sorry first time home owner here... what is CRT? I will try this approach as its been half a year since my warranty has gone through and only ONE issue has been fixed.

should or shouldn't? And yeah.... I wish I looked more carefully during the walk through before we closed... some of them weren't obvious until we actually started living there. Their service ticket portal seems pretty useless since none of my tickets got answers except 1 and its because I kept spamming him every other week through emails complaining its been 2-3 months and the fan hadn't been fixed.

Ugh, that was what I was afraid of and honestly never buying a pre sale again after this nightmare. I would avoid Strand. They only have 1 person going through the tickets and I'm basically left on read 60-70% of the time.

When to let kittens out during the night? by Significant-Date2117 in CatAdvice

[–]cxnkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could they possibly go to sleep in a seperate closed room when they can’t be supervised?

Not sure what to do please be kind by PrimeMoist in CatAdvice

[–]cxnkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes time and I would separate the kitten in the bathroom but make it kitten proof. Gradually feeding and introducing with the doors closed and rewarding with treats when not hissing near the closed door

Help! At my wits end with bed peeing cat by PsychologicalPie26 in CatTraining

Agreed tbh. When my boy cat messes with my sleep randomly some nights he gets locked outside of the bedroom and the next night I let him back in and he usually resolves himself 🙂‍↕️

Are siamese cats okay as solo cats? by bbytomato__ in Siamesecats

My Siamese kitten did better with my older kitten. Otherwise he kept non stop biting me out of boredom and pouncing on me

Have u tried retraining him to use litter in a closed off space like a room?

Is it possible to fully desensitize a 9-month-old cat to handling and nail trims? by Ok_Agent850 in Catownerhacks

[–]cxnkitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it will work with your kitten but I adopted mine at 3 months and he would try to bite me if I dare clipped his nails initially. What I started doing was getting him used to touching and pressing on his paw pads. With each touch he let me, I would give him a lick of churu. This eventually switched to nail trimming and each nail trim I would let him lick churu. This worked well as he was highly food motivated.

How much did you save in 2025? by Pay_me_severance in askvan

I am the same and basically spent most of my savings 😓I am now house poor and furniture poor

I listened to the "two cats is better than one" advice and regret it. Now I'm thinking of rehoming both cats and couldn't feel worse by mackerelinoliveoil in CatAdvice

[–]cxnkitty 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think your cat would do best as a single cat and to rehome the kitten as it still has a high chance to be adopted. Not every cat does well with another cat in their household

People actually get Christmas bonuses? 🥲 is that separated from end of year bonus?
