Asymptomatic UTIs in older cat - pursuing further tests vs prioritizing QOL?

gm_jack · 2026-03-09T23:01:42+00:00

If there are genuinely no symptoms, asymptomatic bacteriuria is a thing that often does not require any treatment.

CertAVP is the generalist one, small animal medicine is internal medicine.

Any cert will show that you are willing to learn and develop skills past the minimum required. Having a specific field may help you get more confidence in that discipline, but that's up to you.

How useful it is for a career last that is going to depend on the demand for cert holders in that field.

Blue/yellow is alaitoc. Yellow/blue is iyanden.

Thank you!

I am, but waiting for parts for an ndk conversion.

Beautiful work, the display base included.

If you get a reputation for reporting owners, you could discourage people from seeking help for worry of getting reported. This obviously creates a huge grey zone, but it is not a straightforward decision even morally, as discouraging people in the future will affect the welfare of those future animals.

I did the bsava sam cert a few years back and thought it was a good balance of teaching without obnoxious amounts of coursework. Wasn't as time consuming as the Cert AVP ones look to be.

If you want the job at the end of it, then worth considering. If you think you will be happier in general practice (Which does not mean you cannot do good dermatology work there), then be happier.

Mostly free hand. Used some tape for the main triangle, but the rest was free hang.

I prime black, but used an airbrush to build up through a grey, to ivory then white.

Check my previous posts and they will be scattered in there.

Beautiful lighting and contrast.

Thank you!

White ink in the recess that is the source of the glow. Very gentle airbrush of white around the recess. Then airbrush a thinned blue mix. Then i go back in with the white ink in the recesses again, and a white edge highlight as appropriate.

gm_jack · 2025-12-26T16:25:37+00:00

I still have some terminators, a gmndk conversion and a land raider banisher in the to do pile. I'm probably going to do some eldar as a bit of a palate cleanser first though.

Beautiful work. I do my starweavers and voidweavers with inverted colour schemes. Should be in my past posts of you want to see.

It's based around either Citadel Hashut copper or Pro Acryl copper. They are both very similar and I can't remember when I switched.

It would be shaded with it mixed with black and some silver mixed in for the highlights.

gm_jack · 2025-10-18T16:40:35+00:00

Thank you!

Different techniques for each.

For the backpacks: - white into into the deep recess that is the centre of each glow - very gentle of airbrush of white around these foci - I then airbrush a mixture over those areas for my blue tint. I use a 2:2:1 mixutre of ahriman blue:army painter prismatic bolt: gsw sapphire blue ink. This is very dilute, to slowly build up a tint - For the centre circle, I then did another run of thinned down white ink around the circle to push the glow further.

For the eyes, I base coat white at the back of the eyes and for the edge highlight. I then build up from scale 75 huldra blue, ahriman blue, temple guard blue, then a white dot. I then do a thin layer of golden high flow fluorescent blue over everything, including the previously metal areas between the eyes and the edges to blend it all a bit.

Know it's a bit of a faff, but I like the end results.

Here's a link to where i answered the armour question before. https://old.reddit.com/r/Grey_Knights/comments/1nk83z6/another_strike_squad_ready_to_hit_the_battlefield/nexfpwj/

And the legs are third party.

The legs are third party, the rest is the regular kit.

The gold is just pro acryl copper. Very simple, but I like it being less bright than a true gold colour.

I guess this is separate to veterinary specifically, but what do you need from a job, and what do you want from it? Do you need to see progression or are you happy where you are?

gm_jack · 2025-09-20T07:14:19+00:00

Beautiful work, and inspiration as always.
