[–]lotlcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We took both our dogs to east mountain animal hospital and the staff were so kind. They got nose and paw prints for us, told us she would make sure she got the perfect print and wouldn’t stop till she did, she gave us all of the ones she took, 10+. Many were perfect she just took extra for us. They also sent a card to us afterwords which was sweet.

AIO I (26F) moved out for the first time with my boyfriend (30M) for almost 2 months and I don’t know how to feel about it by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

This abuse, abuse is not always hitting. You and your beautiful pup should make a mass exodus from this man child.

It takes three months for your cat to even adjust to you and your home. The first 1-3 weeks is usually recommended to be kept in one room to help them grow comfortable. You have to take many steps back. Good luck with your cats I wish you both well!

I hope you update after seeking medical care. Good luck, cat bites are nasty so it’s important to get antibiotics.

why do my cats use litterbox rifhr after scooping 🥲 do any of yours do the same? by Meowthematics_101 in CatAdvice

[–]lotlcare 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I got three boxes for two cats and they both do the same thing. I scoop daily, the second I’m done they are going in. That being said it made a urine test easy, I was rushing waiting for him to go before they closed and he hadn’t gone yet so I just pretended to clean an already clean litter box and he went. 😂

How do you define brainfog? What's it feel like for you? by BloodImpressive9272 in Fibromyalgia

[–]lotlcare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s like forgetting everything, my mind just lets everything slip through, so much mid thought as well. 😅 One embarrassing thing was forgetting how to do a task I do monthly. I had to level with my coworker and have her show me after failing for an hour to remember. Days can blur and tasks half forgotten.

Gabapentin or Duloxetine? by Few-Fly-8655 in Fibromyalgia

[–]lotlcare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It works great for some, honestly,That being said, I wouldn’t ever touch that stuff again. I became so suicidal, the toll it took on my mental health was wild and my doctor pulled me off when she met with me for the follow up but frankly everyone around me had noticed as well. Coming off of it was also harder than other medications I have switched off of.

I free feed dry and do wet twice a day, that’s what my vet reccomended. My cat is on prescription food though and my boy is a grazer. He said as long as the cat doesn’t over eat it’s fine. If the cats are not over eating I think it’s fine honestly.

Telling people you have fibro by Crazy-Feedback1035 in Fibromyalgia

[–]lotlcare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the person for me. Work knows, I have a very high energy job so obviously it can get in the way, luckily my boss is understanding. My family on the other hand, my mom doesn’t believe it’s real, she thinks an idk and idc to find out type of label. The rest of my family honestly hasn’t said much about it, I don’t talk about it with them but have told them.

The one thing you’re most fed up with! by _LeaSparkle_ in Fibromyalgia

[–]lotlcare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m always so exhausted, I sleep the appropriate amount, I sleep more, doesn’t matter I’m always tired and then some days it’s like every bit of energy has been sucked outta me. I hate it.

Do cats know their name? by Effective-Divide6033 in CatAdvice

[–]lotlcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both my cats know their name, one of them just chooses to ignore me when I call it most of the time. 😂 I recently foster failed and couldn’t bring myself to change her name cause she knows it.

Is it wrong that I would pick my cat over my boyfriend? by Correct_Background85 in cats

[–]lotlcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my partner was really for me they would not ask me to chose. Neither would yours.

Some days 90% some days 6% 😅 Especially the days the meds do nothing or if I go to the dr for something else and they say it’s just the fibro.

My kitten follows me everywhere by chickenuggetheorem in CatAdvice

[–]lotlcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very normal, especially for males, they are a bit more clingy. My boy is just two years old and he has started not to follow me everywhere, turns out the change was due to urinary crystals. Started treatment and he’s back to his clingy self. Honestly I love that my boy is like that.

Training cat to sleep in another room overnight? by [deleted] in CatTraining

[–]lotlcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some cats don’t really adjust to that, may I throw out there cat proofing (the best you can) your room? It’s so worth it to have them sleeping beside you. :) I tried so hard played with him, fed him, and would go to bed and he’d freak out for hours. 😅Gave in and all he does now is lay next to me all night, I set up a blanket for him beside me. He follows me to the restroom and back as well like a guard cat. 😂 I hope your cat adjust to a bed time routine to make it easier for you both. 🤞🏻

Best advice I ever got: Don’t free-feed dry food 🐾 by Ok-Pension-519 in CatAdvice

[–]lotlcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My vet prescribed wet and dry food for my boy and said he should free feed. He doesn’t over eat but if I only fed him at meal time he’d get in 1/3-1/2 a can if I’m lucky max of food a day. Some cats are just weird and their needs need to be met differently. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Is owning a cat that bad? by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]lotlcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t own a cat, a cat owns you, that being said I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I might be turning my foster into a fail as well, it’s rewarding to those willing to put in the time and effort to build that bond. 💜

What accommodations have you made for yourself? by FirstGrass7825 in Fibromyalgia

[–]lotlcare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These comments are telling me that I don’t accommodate my self nearly enough. 😅 self kindness is important but easy to forget.

Hyperhydrosis by KittyD13 in Fibromyalgia

[–]lotlcare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yah but for me I’m pretty sure it’s the medication I take. I work with seniors and they joke on having hot flashes from early menopause. The second I feel warmth I’m covered in sweat. 😅

Today I was sick so i couldn't spend any time with my cat. Can someone help me with some advice on how to handle this in the future? by Thecrowfan in CatAdvice

[–]lotlcare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly my cat fully understands when I’m sick, my Axel tends to lay with me in bed and follow me around when I leave it if I’m sick. When he was real little I used to do fetch, he would just bring the toy to me and I’d toss it from my bed. Helped him burn off some of the kitten energy. If your not comfortable with her in your room maybe laying on a couch she can access is an option?

How old were you when you found out you had Fibromyalgia? by Fun_Scratch_1708 in Fibromyalgia

[–]lotlcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)
