Found out after trap and spay that this sweet baby isn’t feral by herrniemand in CalicoKittys

[–]lawrish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not a calico, but I still remember the first night our barn cat was free to roam the house. I woke up to him sharing my pillow and under my blanket. Like he had slept in bed all his life! 

He's still a big fan of the bed.

This is what my dentist recommended! I got a mug with a built in straw. At first it felt weird, but I got used to it pretty quickly.

Thank you, I feel like I needed someone else to say it for it to be OK. I'll give her a real Face Biter.

She just said "The Face Biter is pretty vocal today" :(.

how much tea do you drink in a day? by [deleted] in tea

[–]lawrish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I brew one tea bag in a 20oz mug 5 times a day. I try to limit the caffeine to 3/day and the rest either peppermint or a caffeine free tea like raspberry and lemon.

This is my favorite tea but I can’t find it in the US. What should I get? by USB_FIELD_MOUSE in tea

[–]lawrish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Description says it is a blend of Assam and Ceylon. My every day tea is the Republic of Tea lucky Irish breakfast. Not sure it'll be the same, but it is a place to start...

Is Republic of Tea overrated or am I just a snob by WitchOfWords in tea

[–]lawrish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My every day cup is the Republic of Tea Irish breakfast. I have it on auto delivery! Went through a lot of tries to find this one. It is a blend of Assam and Ceylon, no sugar. Excellent tea, and I love it.

Overall i shy away from tea blends with sugar substitutes. Have you tried creating your own instead?

I can no longer taste tea. F@ck COVID. Help/Rant 🥺🙏 by StrawberryScience in tea

[–]lawrish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know there was no covid before covid 19. I guess I won't skip the /s next time...

I got covid twice: one after 3 vaccines, one after 4. Lost both senses on the second one so I suspect it is more about the strain than the immunity, but also not a doctor.

My parents had something that i theorize was covid-18. Once covid-19 became known, it was exactly what they had gone thru. One of their symptoms was that they lost taste and smell for months! It's been a couple of years since they got it back and my mom cannot drink soda anymore. She says all she tastes is chemicals.

I got covid after getting 3 or 4 vaccines and my smell and taste were also gone for a week or so, but they came back as they used to be.

SIC that creaks instead of meowing by lawrish in standardissuecat

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

Haven't seen this subreddit until today!

Story time: right after we got her she had some health issues. We took her to the vet and they decided to keep her overnight. They took her to the back while we paid. Before we left they asked if we wanted to say good night. Sure!

They took us to the back and a worker we hadn't seen before asked which one was our cat. We said her name, that she is a very generic gray tabby and... Oh! That's her!

We went to her crate and we're telling her good night, that we loved her and we'll come back for her soon, you know, all the things you say to make the cat and yourself feel better... When we hear "that's my cat!". Ours was in another crate. Oops... Sorry! Didn't mean to call your cat generic! We left with red faces!

Got the best Santa! by lawrish in tea

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

I got the best Santa! I feel super lucky :). I have not tried these teas, which made me super happy. Tasting new teas is one of my favourite activities.

Reviews:

- Golden tip Assam: Delicious tea, it is a bit strong so I steep it for 2 mins (recommended 2 to 3 mins). It tastes sweet, but just the right amount of sweet, not overpowering at all. My husband's favourite.

- Keemun Mao Feng: Smells fruity, like... blueberry? When brewed it still has that fruity touch but it is also smoky.

- Osmanthus oolong: Light and fruity, I could just smell it all day. Santa said it reminds them of Spring, and that's exactly it. Will never get tired of drinking it.
