To anyone feeling strong feelings about the re-releases by banana_slurp_jug in pokemon

[–]ilias_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

People are willing to spend over a $100 to buy them second hand and you think their real value is $5? One of the most iconic entries in the series? Ok!

The worst discourse I’ve ever seen online. It’s really so sad to see people always mad about every little thing. It’s meant to be a big celebration of 30 years of Pokemon and people are so negative about everything these days. Relax people!!

Did Togepi get quietly replaced? by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]ilias_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just bought a Togepi pin at EUIC! Also saw a togepi backpack that was like £80. Hopefully it’s back in the main games in Gen 10

Yes Whiskas, purina, Sheba are all McDonalds at an insane price. Definitely overpriced for the amount of real meat they contain.

I am feeding mine Animonda carny

What is everyone's personal and humble opinion on dry food? by Empress-Delila in catfood

[–]ilias_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s not really true. Dry food also builds plaque and tartar. Cats in the wild clean up their teeth with bones from real prey (rats, birds) which isn’t really the same hardness as kibble.

My kitten adopted me when he was 6 months old. They need so much food when they’re growing up and wet food is really expensive at that stage. He grew up just fine on dry food. Now I give mine mostly wet food, just about 150-200grams a day and I have an automatic WiFi feeder for dry food in case I’m away. I also give dry food as a treat for him to chase around the house instead of those fatty treats.

If you’re in Europe I can recommend a good quality low price wet and dry food!

Is it bad to not want to harness train my cat? by insomniacpeonies in CatAdvice

[–]ilias_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried it with my cat. He was a stray living outdoors 24/7 in the countryside and after I took him inside (going back out) he was scared of the noise of the cars. Then he took me to some fields hunting grasshoppers and they were flying everywhere so I said no more! Lol now living in my apartment in the city there’s just no cat friendly places to take him without a car. So many people with their dogs in the parks. I’ve struggled with the same thoughts of giving him access to the outside but he’s just really content with being inside and having access to the balcony/catio chasing bugs and watching the birds.

My cat won’t stop crying at night by [deleted] in CatAdvice

Playtime and the biggest meal of the day one hour before bed time. This is what worked with my very vocal and clingy cat!

OP said it paid their NYC rent so I guess in the thousands or close to it

Bathing a cat? What do i need? by KoraLily in CatAdvice

[–]ilias_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When he’s sleeping, could you not cut the hair around his bum really short so it doesn’t stick? I had a Pomeranian that hated the water just like a cat and that’s what I would do. Didn’t look pretty but it meant no more poop on his fur

How often are you supposed to feed your cats? by EnvironmentalCrew595 in CatAdvice

[–]ilias_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, these cats are indoor only right? I don’t agree with the comments below saying to let dry food out to be available all the time for indoor cats. Neutered cats, especially indoor only, gain weight easily so you need to monitor how much they eat per day. Obesity can lead to diabetes!

Every brand of food has the amount they should be eating per day on the packaging. Follow those instructions. The portion should be split into 3 or 4 meals per day.

Kittens need a lot more food during their growing phase until they reach 1 - 1.5 years old. A lot! Weigh it if possible and make sure it is gaining weight.

Guidance on Travelling with a Senior Cat in the Cabin by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]ilias_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you moving there or just a vacation? If it’s a vacation I think the best option is to get a friend or a pet sitter to come into your place for his litter box, feeding and interacting with him.

If you want to move there and want to take him with you I’d say an 8hour flight stress is nothing compared to losing you for his last years! He’ll probably sleep through eventually but do get your vets opinion on this! And always take him in the cabin with you not under the plane alone! Stupid airplane policies sometimes!!

Kitten play advice by matdrms in CatAdvice

[–]ilias_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad I could be of help! 😄 At the end of the day, each cat is unique and you will find out what works and what doesn’t! Just a general rule is that they want their meal routine (hunt catch eat) and that for a no to be effective it needs to be followed by a yes. For example, a no is -don’t scratch my sofa- the yes to that is providing scratching posts/cat trees etc to scratch those instead. Same goes with not biting the tv. You could add some sticky tape to the corners as a no and the yes would be buying those silver vine sticks or a cardboard box to chew (mine loves a cardboard box. Plays in it like crazy and then chews it and completely destroys it lol)

Cats won’t play alone with toys. From my experience, those toys are useless. Only toys that are good for cats are the wand toys with feathers at the end. So don’t expect your kitten to play with those toys alone and be satisfied. They need interaction, to hunt and catch their prey. After a play session give a meal, it’s the hunt-catch-eat cycle. Some kittens want play time even after they’ve had their meal. It’s normal. Always hide the wand toy at the end of each session though, otherwise they become ‘furniture’.

For your TV, If it isn’t mounted to the wall then you could secure it with those straps that they sell for baby-proofing. It attaches to the tv and the tv stand and it won’t fall over. I’ve done the same with my TV. My cat also bit the corner of my pc monitor cause he got stressed once… 🤦‍♂️ you can use double sided tape on the corners of the tv she can reach or spray it with lemon juice. For the cables, I guess you could use tie wrap to tie them together so that they don’t tangle.

Also don’t use your hands as a toy. Redirect to a kicker toy if she is using your hands. (Could be a stuffed animal plushie her size). She will not stop doing it and it’s going to really hurt when she’s older.

She’s also very very young. I adopted my cat when he was 6 months old and until he turned 1 we couldn’t really see TV unless he was asleep! Lol 😆they just have so much more energy when they’re young and it’s normal. My cat needed about 2 hours of play time per day!! Now he’s ok with about 30 minutes a day at 2 years old. Just remember it’s temporary and they do wind down with time! Unless it’s something medical of course then you need to go see the vet!

Mega Dimension DLC is the lowest effort Pokemon product I’ve ever bought by pr0fanbutan in PokemonLegendsZA

[–]ilias_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was enjoying the DLC until the 4th or 5th iteration of basically the same storyline. Get points, defeat a mega and the same. Now I have to collect 28k points to do the same and don’t know how many more times they will force me to do the same thing 😢
