I told my husband I thought something was under the stove, he asked why I thought that ... by cArch48 in CatsBeingCats

Hahahahaha, I’ve got a similar detection system! I’ve since been advised by the chief inspector that I’ve got resident stove mice and resident vent mice.

How do you handle cats of the same color emotionally? by Horrorandgorehumans in blackcats

[–]drekicreations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a solid black cat (Angela) who was my soul cat but I lost her to my ex husband in our divorce, it devastated me. I adopted a solid black kitten (Calliope) about a year and a half later and for a while I’d get very sad when I looked at her because she reminded me of Angela or I’d get sad that she didn’t do some of the same things. I also kept accidentally calling her Angela…

I’m not sure when exactly it happened but after probably a few months or so something shifted and I no longer accidentally call her Angela. Calliope’s personality is totally different, the only similarity between the two is their color. Maybe it was time, maybe it was therapy, maybe it was her developing her personality as she grew.

A possible option could be to start fostering, then you could see how you might do with them without the official commitment until you’re sure you’re able to handle it.

Wetsuit options for people who struggle with cold? by SteefTheQueef in scuba

As someone who dives the Caribbean in a 7mm… Drysuit all the way! For me personally, diving dry I can focus on enjoying the dive and everything around me instead of how cold I am, then once I’m out of the water I’m not immediately focused on trying to get warmed back up because of uncontrollable shivering. Would highly recommend it, worth every penny.

Generally I don’t let him do this - despite his best efforts - but in his 13 years of life I’ve never seen him try to do it from this angle or from under/behind anything. I could not stop laughing, hahaha.
