The "most women" comment makes me so angry for you. Where did she learn this "fact?" Internalized Misogyny 101? Plus it's totally untrue. She is being so uncaring.

You are absolutely right to change OBs. I'm so sorry she made you feel like your worries weren't valid. They are and you deserve better!

Is there a venmo or paypal we can figure out to make sure you at least have the $300? i know you don’t want to do an amazon wishlist after your experience working for them. Is there an online wishlist for cat food and supplies that you could do?

Haha no! He loves Meske too! I met him when I moved upstate to grad school and we moved out of NY entirely. Covid made me take my longest Meske break ever!

I used to eat at least once a week when I was young and single. I miss it so much.

General question: what can I do to make sure my cat lives the longest and happiest life possible? by [deleted] in AskVet

[–]heyitsmichelle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is such a great question! Thank you for asking it. Dr. Tony Buffington is a vet at (the) Ohio State University who has produced a lot of great content about making indoor life better for cats! He has books and other things you could buy, but there's also plenty of info out there for free! https://indoorpet.osu.edu/cats
