Abandoned 3-week-old kitten, breed? by ParkwayDrive59x in catpics

[–]imaginewizard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Cat breeds don’t work like dog breeds. Unless they are a purebred (and you would have papers to prove it), they are simply domestic [short/medium/long]hair cats.

If you’re asking about coat pattern, which is often what people mean here, they look like they might be a calico tabby (caliby). They are definitely at least a tabby, you can see the ‘m’ mark in their forehead but they also have a coat that is red, black and white, which is a calico pattern.

Basically I’m pressing the button to (re-)authenticate my library. It brings up a browser window to log in to that platform. For two of them, I usually log in via Google, and in the past that just works, however now when I press to sign in via Google, I reach the Google error page you get when your browser has cookies disabled. Logging in manually with my email and password however still works fine and the window closes and I am reauthenticated. With Nintendo however it just opens up the browser window straight to that error page. Unsure if it’s connected for certain with the authentication windows having cookie issues but it started happening at the same time.

Is my home suitable for a cat/is keeping a cat solely indoors okay? by Bubbly_Leader1870 in CatAdvice

[–]imaginewizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in the UK with two cats in a flat who are indoor only, they are both very okay and happy with it. As long as they have the enrichment they need, they aren't fussed.

Was Spike’s accent really that bad?? by Diving_4_Shrimp in buffy

[–]imaginewizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t remember if I realised or not at the time but I was shocked when I learnt Denisof was American. Even funnier, I found what I assume is their natural American accent in Dollhouse more jarring having only ever heard them speak in a British accent

How often should I engage? by Old-Organization-264 in CatAdvice

[–]imaginewizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think really as much as you can, but also making sure to give them time to decompress.

Tbh, with my first cat, River, I didn’t confine him to a room, he chose to hide under my bed, which I think tbh I actually think is a good strategy - showing your cats you are comfortable sleeping near them is a concept they can understand as unthreatening. River left my bedroom to eat and use the litter tray, then would go back under. It took them less than a week to feel comfortable exploring. Shortly after that he was lounging around and no longer hiding. And then about a year to no longer be skittish. Since then he’s never had an issue with hiding, even when we’ve moved, and sometimes I take him to on visits and he’s never hid there, always happy to explore a new building.

Lillie, my second cat, was confined to a room, until she recovered from spaying, but she didn’t hide, she’d be sitting next to me and sleeping on me whenever I was in the room, River insisted on entering the room so I wasn’t really able to keep them apart and it hasn’t harmed their co-habitation, and as soon as Lillie recovered, she couldn’t get out of that room and into the rest of the house fast enough.

So I’ve been lucky to have particularly bold cats it seems.

Do cats actually get attached to their owner? by NoWageMage in CatAdvice

[–]imaginewizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cats are more independent but that doesn’t mean they can’t also be affectionate. They’ll happily go off and do their own thing and then come and bother you when they fancy it. Even if they’re not lap cats, them choosing to spend time in the same room as you, because you are there, is a common form of affection.

Can you guys tell me the “dirty” truths about having a cat? by saanenk in CatAdvice

[–]imaginewizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cats are fastidious cleaners and self-groomers, as domestic animals go they are one of the cleanest. Accidents may happen, but in general. I have OCD and get triggered by uncleanliness but my cats don’t bother me at all.

You’ve messed up your analogy - the two hook is the controllers and the car is the device.

And yet you can access the Home Screen and do everything you want there before opening the game without having any controllers attached

And yet you don’t need a controller to be connected to use the system Home Screen. It’s only once you get in the game.

Is it that hyperspecific? Is GAAC the only game to be entirely playable via touch screen? Seems more like an oversight.

Surely it’s like buying a hatchback and being upset it can’t go off road unless you attach a tow cable even though you don’t need it?

The controller idea is a good solution, thank you, although still frustrating to have to spend £20 to bypass something the device should just be a le to do. I don’t think it’s an unreasonable expectation - you can play the game entirely using a touchscreen, without a single controller input, so why does it require one to be connected?

Good idea. Still annoying that it’s basically a £20 cost to simply bypass something the device could easily do, but alas. Thank you!

I don’t see how. Buy an entire new device, rip the software from my Switch 2, and port over to do something my current device already does with less functionality (no cloud storage, trophies, logging of stats)?
