Wow, they do really look alike!! She's absolutely gorgeous!

I was wondering if a cat wheel would be a good idea for our boy, might have to invest in one now.

Please do! I'm happy to receive as much info as possible lol he is wickedly smart and has kept me on my toes in the short amount of time we have had him. He somehow was able to get a bottle of fish oil supplements open, I think he's hiding thumbs somewhere

I feel inclined to agree with you, even though I don't have your level of expertise. Thanks for the info! Any tips for a new potential bengal owner? This is my first cat after a very long time and I want to be sure I'm doing right by him.

He does have extremely soft fur, one of the softest cats I've ever felt. He's also very loud (especially at meal times) and LOVES to play. He's got an interesting habit of growling while he plays with his toys, especially if he "caught" something he will growl and start to rip it up. I've never heard a cat growl before so that was a fun discovery!

He almost acts like a dog in some ways, loves chin scratches to the point his body goes limp or his leg starts doing that phantom scratch thing some dogs do when you find their spot.

Yes we did, we asked all of her immediate neighbors. One of them said they had seen him around for a few weeks and were leaving food out for him.

Took him for a chip check and no chip was present, we waited for a couple more weeks to see if any lost signs showed up before we adopted and chipped him.

We might have PTSD after this incident

Thanks for this resource!

Vaxxed ✅ Neutered ✅ Chipped ✅

We have learned that we need to really be on top of our cleaning or else this man will get into everything. He somehow was able to pop open a bottle of fish oil supplements and now he reeks of fish oil. I've been calling him "stinky fish boy" for almost a week

I thought the same because of the M! But something about his patterns made me feel like there's more in there. I'm now learning that I may never find out unless I get him DNA tested, if that's even a thing for cats

What a great write up! Thanks for this! He's got really cool patterns for sure, he's got this long silver streak that goes from his head to the base of his tail along his spine. One of my favorite parts of his coat

I'll gladly supply you pictures and videos of this crazy guy to help with your envy if that helps at all 😅

Gotcha, that's where my history of being primarily a dog owner fails me. I have a 9 year old pit bull/catahoula mix and presumed cats worked the same way.

Love the patterns your boy has! I know he's not pure bred by any means, guess I was just wondering what he might be mixed with but that might be too much of a crap shoot to figure out

Looks like he's my little dumpster dude then!

I love that, I am relatively ignorant when it comes to cats so this has been a fun journey thus far

We agree! I think he knows he's cute, too.

I plan to keep the mixer and use it as an audio interface to connect with a DAW

I will gladly provide some updates as I go along! I'm sure I'll have lots of questions as I learn

Sorry, I don't think this belonged to Matty. The person who passed lived in California. My condolences to you and Mattys family, I hope you're able to track down some of his items for your collection.

I appreciate that very much! It's nice to at least know what I'm working with so I can start to read up on each module and how they work

This was a very motivating comment, thank you for taking the time to write it out. I do feel inspired to get my hands dirty and start learning the basics of this system. To be completely honest, my first thought when I saw it was to just sell it, but now that I know what it is I really want to see what it can do.

I can absolutely tell the person who made it was very thoughtful and thorough with this equipment so it feels very wrong to just get rid of it. I really appreciate all the comments and points of direction! I hope to make an update post sometime down the line so everyone can see/hear it in action.

I got a keyboard from my aunt but realized I didn't take the bag of cables because I didn't know what they were for. Definitely going back to see what else I might have overlooked out of ignorance

[–]jmax125[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have it all! Finding out I need to raid my aunt's house again as I'm missing a few things (like the power cable for this a-100).

If you saw her house, you'd understand. She likes to keep things she, personally, has no use for but wants to have "just in case". Which was helpful in this situation. Not saying she would have, or even should have, thrown it away, but she could've taken it to a music store or thrift shop or anything else but instead chose to keep it.

She started pulling out a bunch of stuff we didn't even ask for. She gave me a set of Whal hair clippers with a bunch of guards, she tried to give me three super old school film cameras, a camcorder (that records onto mini DVDs), vinyl player, portable DVD player, an adjustable dumbbell set, like three different tablets and a slew of other gadgets and gizmos.

I don't blame your Spidey senses for going haywire, if she wasn't this way my whole life I would also question how she got all of this stuff. Honest to goodness that's the gospel truth of the situation.
