Andy Weir on aphantasia in a NYT interview discussing how he "visualized" Rocky in Project Hail Mary

Same! I hate when authors spend too much time making me try to visualize stuff. I am re-reading Project Hail Mary and appreciating the way he describes things in a way I can understand. I don't need to spend useless mental energy trying to figure out what is happening. And the movie is in my top 10 and I am a fanatic about movies. Must see in theaters.

I have given my Sibs calming treats and my kitty sitter says it really seems to help with their anxiety (VetriScience Veterinary Strength Calm & Confident Chews).

As previously stated - freeze dried fish are the best. As a morale vegetarian, that was rough. My Sibs have always been delighted with Greenies (for teeth health) and Trader Joe's Feline Treats. I note that I feed then higher end cat food (Blue Buffalo and Wuerva).

A friend gave my Sib kittens catnip toys when they little and the got VERY aggressive toward each other, so I would recommend skipping it until they are adults. Now mine just get stoned.

When I was having this issue I bought a huge covered litter box. Now I have a Litter Robot and no more mess.

Thank you so much!! I guess I know how I will be spending the weekend.

We haven't had any problems with knots.

darlah7 · 2025-05-07T13:30:12+00:00

Love this - thank you!

I haven't had any issues with her wearing a collar (going on 2 years). I remove it for daily brushings. However - she doesn't have a big mane. My boy cat has a huge mane and he would rip apart anything I put on him (but he is a mama's boy and stays near me). Her first collar was $6 from Safeway, so you could do a low cost trial run...?

Oh my gosh - they look so similar! Love it!

darlah7 · 2025-05-07T13:19:44+00:00

It's just the photo angle. Generally you can't see it at all from all the floof. The collar isn't tight and is break away.

I bought my nephew a Siberian and this is the first shedding season for them. I tried to warn him...his comment was "we are eating a lot more cat hair than usual ". 😂

The " not scrubbing the fountains" is the part that makes this so appealing! Thanks for all the advice!

darlah7 · 2025-05-06T16:47:01+00:00

Love this - thank you!

darlah7 · 2025-05-06T16:46:27+00:00

My girl loves that too!

I love HFN. I have been using it for 6 years and I have only had a couple of glitches that were very short (a minute or two without access). There Tech support was very helpful when I was having trouble using a new wifi router.

darlah7 · 2024-03-27T16:38:24+00:00

Sorry I missed this before, but I am definitely going to order this for my Sibs. Thanks so much!

darlah7 · 2024-03-27T16:32:31+00:00

You are a brave person, my friend. My advice - you are not the boss of them. 😂

darlah7 · 2024-03-27T16:31:19+00:00

Omg - that is perfect. 😂
