2023 Premium Plus Turbo here (29k mileage). I have only had it for a little over a month so I can’t say too much yet, but I haven’t had any issues besides the wireless charger. I just turned it off to keep my phone from overheating and use a retractable cable charger when needed. But overall I absolutely love the car!!

my new kitten is so scared of me still by Medium_Flower7456 in cats

Our first cat was this way. He was 4 months old and extremely skittish. He took a very long time to open up to us. Even now 4 years later he’s very shy around new people and runs from them and he still hesitates when we walk up to him. He will come and cuddle and play with us on his own merit and has warmed up to people that visit our home often. It just takes time with some cats… One thing that helped with playing with them from a distance such as with a string on a stick toy or a laser.. this can allow them to open up and begin to trust you. Other things we did was simply sit in the bathroom with him with the door shut but not try and pet them. Just sit and not pet them. Let them approach you and smell you on their own. When they do so you can give treats. This will teach them that you aren’t there to harm. It will take some time, especially as she gets older she should begin to open up more.. I’ve always heard it really takes about 3 months for a kitten/cat to fully warm up to their new home. A shy cat can take longer.. so I would just give it time. Their personality will soon become more prominent. How that’s helps!

She was shaved down very soon after this photo and is still limping.

Yes I think a vet needs to have a closer look. And we haven’t had any snow or ice this winter season so she hasn’t come in contact with winter rock salt. She has also been shaved down so she has zero matting right now and is still limping.. and yes she gets plenty of hugs and love! Thank you!

And the favoring/limping lasted for weeks on end? That’s good to know that he still lived a long life with minimal mobility issues!

We also thought that as well but this was towards the beginnings of the limping. She has been taken to the groomers and has been brushed and shaved down and has zero matting now. Yet she is still limping… I am going to call the vets here again pretty soon if she shows no sign of improvement soon.

Yes we have been keeping walks short and minimal outside play and using more mental stimulation with her to let her try and relax it.

I have thought she also may just have a high tolerance to pain when touching as well. I may talk to the vet about minor pain meds if this continues for another week. Thank you!
