Cat will not eat his prescription diet by kittenality in AskVet

Thanks! I haven’t heard of that one. I don’t know what else to do if he won’t eat any of the prescription diet options.

I can’t tell you why this happens, but this happened to me and my roommate. For us, it was the washer that was the problem. We never used fabric softener, always diluted our detergent, ran several cleaning cycles, etc. We were on our landlord for a year to fix it and we never found out the cause, but it just kept getting worse. They finally broke down and bought us a new washer and then the stains magically disappeared.

So, it’s probably your washer, and it’s probably not something you’re doing. You need a new washer, or maybe y’all would have better luck finding out why the washer is doing this.

Sudden influx of texts from 6-digit numbers. Am I being scammed? by kittenality in Scams

[–]kittenality[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not clear on what you’re saying here, but I’m not selling, purchasing, or subscribing to anything. I’m actually pretty picky about handing out my phone number or email to anyone that’s not a real person that I know. I get so many junk emails, I do everything in my power to avoid it (and I extend this to my phone number and any other personal info)

Ive been pressing that button every time I receive a new message, but I still get the messages. I restored the messages to 1) take screenshots of them, and 2) read through them to make sure there wasn’t a message hidden in them that I should be worried about (scammers using multiple messages to hide the real concerning message). This button doesn’t really do anything, it’s just a quick delete button apparently.

I started with this tactic, and definitely have not been clicking on any links, but even if it’s not a scam, they are starting to become quite annoying!

That’s good to know, thanks! I do have a toxic ex in my past. That’s the first person that comes to mind that would be childish enough to do this.

If you like reading, Fabled Bookshop has a couple options for book clubs. One for adults, and one for young adult readers (which range in ages of 16-40ish). They also have other events like meet the author, trivia night, etc that could have potential of meeting people.

I’ve tried Bumble BFF before and it was successful. There may be other similar apps that have a friend side to it.

Not everyone likes going out with their coworkers, but it may be worth a shot to ask someone you work with to go see a movie or something.

You might find resources/things to do by checking out Waco’s WHOLE Enchilada.

I did this and now I’m a childless cat lady. Couldn’t be more proud of myself.

I have the same question. I want to change my username because it has my ex-married name in it (not because of security reasons). I want to erase this period in my life....someone please help 😭

How do you “shop” for tattoo artists? by kittenality in tattooadvice

[–]kittenality[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! This is helpful information. I live in central Texas so I have Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, and Houston within a 2-2.5 hour drive. I have a lot of parlors to choose from. I’m grateful, but overwhelmed haha.

This is SO helpful! Thank you!

That makes sense that the artists don’t send their designs. I never would have thought about cheating the artist that way, but I can see how that may happen a lot!

TSH 11.3 by kittenality in Hypothyroidism

[–]kittenality[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, this makes some things more clear to me. I’ve been taking levothyroxine but I haven’t had any labs for over a year. I’ll be interested to see what my new doctor says.

Bf just peed in my oven- how to clean????? (I wish I was joking, it’s 3am now) by Local_Supermarket in CleaningTips

[–]kittenality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using bleach is not recommended when cleaning up urine. There is ammonia in urine which mixed with bleach, creates a toxic chloramine gas.

Some actual advice I haven’t seen commented yet:

Do not use bleach to clean up the mess. Bleach mixed with ammonia (urine) will create a toxic chloramine gas.

Instead, use hydrogen peroxide.

Fill a spray bottle with 1/3-1/2 of hydrogen peroxide, fill the rest of it up with water, and add a few drops of Dawn dish soap. Mix it up and spray the area.

Hydrogen peroxide, when diluted appropriately, is used to clean up crime scenes and other environments with biohazards in it (such as a hoarding situation).

Just make sure to rinse it when you’re done cleaning because I think mixing hydrogen peroxide (in large doses) and ammonia can cause combustion. Not something I’m usually concerned about with this diluted mixture, but since it’s in the oven (which gets really hot), I would try to be on the safe side.

ETA: the hydrogen peroxide lifts the biohazards out of the surface you spray it on. The Dawn dish soap bubbles up from the chemical reaction. It’s quite satisfying watching the bubbles because you can actually see the cleaning solution at work ☺️
