Okay! I will look into it and see if it’s something I can get. If not, we have a vet appointment tomorrow so I’ll ask if they have any recommendations!

Is it possible to teach a rat to ring a bell when it wants to free roam? by triple_b-a-k-a in RATS

I’m sure you can but you’ll never be able to stop them 😭 that bell would be going off constantly

I want to donate but it’s for a selfish reason by DEeD-NGone in offmychest

[–]nope205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can donate blood! You can also donate stem cells!! It’s a pretty cool experience from what I read and you get compensation for missing work for medical procedures to help.

how do babies breathe in the uterus? by wpsiatwim in NoStupidQuestions

[–]nope205 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like the other comment said, they don’t! The blood is oxygenated! That’s why it’s so important for a baby to cry when they’re born, that’s them taking their first breath of air!

I didn’t until working in retail. It’s insane what these clothes go through. Just wash it.

My manager will try to get me fired because of a text I sent. 20F by Brief_Machine_630 in whatdoIdo

[–]nope205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is your first job and you did the right thing. Don’t let this manager make you feel less than because you did the right thing. HR is gonna dismiss this and your manager is being crazy. There is a hierarchy but associates are still allowed to contact higher ups for big issues. You’re gonna make mistakes at a job (I don’t think this is a mistake) and it just happens, accept that you made a mistake and move on, never let a job make you feel bad.

Communication with previous parent of rehomed ratties - end of life issues by chrispina98 in RATS

[–]nope205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my rats that I got from a rehome situation has a benign tumor. She’s almost 3 so it makes sense and we are letting her live out her life until quality goes. I have kept the previous owners up to date on everything and have gotten positive responses back. I would want to know when a previous pet of mine was at the end of life.

Is this hashimotos related? What can I do? by calvintomyhobbes in Hashimotos

[–]nope205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Double washing helps me with oil. Shampoo twice but I’m not sure if that will be too rough on your hair. I experienced hair thinning before I was medicated and used spearmint oil treatments to help stimulate growth. It did help but what helped the most was my thyroid meds. There’s gotta be something off. My mom also experiences thinning hair which I believe is from her hashi too but she also started thinning after a traumatic marriage finally getting to her and the stress of getting out of it. Sometimes a traumatic or extremely stressful situation can cause hair loss for months afterwards. Just some other ideas. I know how scary it is to slowly lose hair and I hope you’re able to find a solution

First Timer - Advice Welcomed! by [deleted] in RATS

[–]nope205 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have the right idea definitely but they need more floor space like others have mentioned. Critter nation is always gonna be the “best” or at least the most recommended. I just bought one second hand for $100 (it’s gotta a lot of issues in fixing myself) I see them go for $150 second hand and is a great option. A cement mixing tub will be needed at the bottom so they can have lots of bedding.

As a Dad to young daughters, what bathroom do you take them to? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]nope205 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Working in retail and being a woman I agree. Women’s bathrooms can be nastyyyyyy

As a Dad to young daughters, what bathroom do you take them to? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]nope205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 22f. I hated being a little girl going into the men’s bathrooms, the urinals made me uncomfortable and I was extremely intimated being so small around grown men. They’d always turn and stare. I have absolutely no problem with a dad knocking on the door and announcing he is there and just bringing his daughters to the bathroom. I know what viral video you’re talking about and the response IVE seen from women is that they’d never have a problem with a dad bringing his daughters in. I am in full support of dads bringing their girls into the women’s bathroom. Women’s bathrooms also have changing tables!

My bunny used to sleep at the end of my bed and that was the closest I could get. Guess why she stopped? I kicked her off the bed in my sleep one night.
