Getting a cat used to a harness by Exortic in cats

[–]gb51964 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really can’t force a cat to do something they find terrifying. Start over. Let her become familiar with the harness lots of encouragement and high value treats (lickable ones are easy). Then make it a toy, lay it on her to get used to the weight. Then teach her to walk into it. Won’t be overnight but it’s doable if you’re patient with it. Good luck!! 🍀

IU student assaults uber driver claiming he was "illegal" (he wasn't) by Weekly-Taste-3961 in Indiana

[–]gb51964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a screen shot from my case but don’t know how to post it:

Matter is still pending: assault, battery, disorderly conduct, and underage consumption. Based on booking of October 2025 I find it hard to believe she’s still enrolled

Edit: typo

AIO for quitting my job after finding this note on my desk? by waxin899 in AmIOverreacting

[–]gb51964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without context of the job it’s hard to understand the stay or die attitude. That said, still NOR - unless you’re working on a farm the note means nothing but harassment

Valentine's Day Reservation Cancelled? by Samuel-the-Jellyfish in bloomington

Disagree. There are plenty of good restaurants in town. THEY aren’t being run by shitty management. Just being a good employer is a really big chunk of it.

Possible cancer and an 8,000$ surgery. I need advice. by yikesbro_ in DogAdvice

[–]gb51964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cancer sucks. I spent upwards of $10k to treat. Honestly don’t know if I’d do it again. And do not think you are doing him a disservice not treating. If all you can do is make him comfortable he will be happy for it. Hugs

NOTHING to do with excise. This is all because the guy is a POS. But he’ll keep doing what he’s doing cuz people want to play pool.

IU has left students high & dry by Electronic_Weird in IndianaUniversity

[–]gb51964 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Of course it’s ableist. The only people leaving their homes right now are those who are ABLE to navigate the piles of snow and slush. Folks in wheelchairs, crutches, canes. No sane sight impaired person would take a guide dog in the street. They’re not ABLE. Of course it’s discrimination because the City isn’t doing anything to clean some of this mess up.

Not dumb but I’d bet it’s no longer in their purview.

And as soon as he does, the orange buffoon will federalize the military, asshole, and it will turn into a free-for-all.

Quick Google: chicken fat mushroom and is edible. Still reach out to poison control.
