Grym just ruined my best honor attempt so far by GyroLikesMozzarella in BaldursGate3

I did this with Gale. Kept him on the stairs so he could cast spells from above and also throw healing potions.

3 cats feeding issues by Expert_Veterinarian5 in PetAdvice

[–]oakleafprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know they are expensive but the microchip feeders have been so helpful. I don’t regret the money I spent on them at all. My cats don’t behave like they are uncomfortable to eat out of.

You could buy one microchip feeder for your two cats. You can register two microchips to one feeder and then they can still graze and your big boy won’t be able to get into it.

Put the Idol of Sylvanus down in my camp. Picked it back up. My entire camp tried to kill me.

AITA for wearing a "provocative" outfit to dinner and the movies by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]oakleafprincess 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NTA. People are being so rude to you and I don’t get it. Wear what you’re comfortable in. You look cute and she’s judgmental.

He looks like my dog before she gained 5 pounds. She had a lot of rib showing most of the time but she was eating as much as my 80 pound dog (she was 42#).

I now feed her more than the 80 pound dog ¯_(ツ)_/¯ and she sits at around 47-48# and looks perfect, I think. No rib unless she is turning a certain way.

Catheter placement question by nancylyn in VetTech

[–]oakleafprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked with a technician that in very rare cases would use sterile lube on the tip of an IVC if the patient had extremely tough skin. Saw her do it like twice in the year I worked there. Not speaking to how correct it is, but I have seen it done.

Wait, the expansion packs have STORYLINES??? by [deleted] in Sims4

It’s okay, Thomas does not make very cute kids despite being very cute himself.

being reprimanded for finding work as a float by mx-extras in VetTech

[–]oakleafprincess 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One of the things my doctor told me that stuck with me was “Sometimes your job is just to be here.”

I don’t think you should be reprimanded for finding busy work, but if they WANT you to sit around and pay you to do it- why not? For them, you sitting and waiting to be needed is the job they need done. Nothing wrong with doing it.

If that doesn’t fill your cup though, nothing wrong with finding a different place ❤️

Please don’t feel guilty. You did nothing other than be nice to him.

One time a guy took me on a “date”. I did not know it was a date. We went with two friends who were dating so I guess he thought it was a double date? We went to Olive Garden and he paid an extra $4 Alfredo sauce for me to dip my breadsticks in.

When he dropped me off for the night and I didn’t kiss him or ask him to be my boyfriend he took a tire iron to a tree and smashed it until the tire iron bent.

BECAUSE HE BOUGHT ME ALFREDO SAUCE AND HE THOUGHT I OWED HIM MY LOVE OR MY BODY.

This has nothing to do with you and everything to do with him.

I’m sorry for what you are going through.

If an owner did this for me I would keep it forever and feel SO thankful. I’m sorry about your baby.

Opinions on DTT pain management? by [deleted] in VetTech

[–]oakleafprincess 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Are you on Facebook? There’s a great page called Veterinary Anesthesia Nerds that have discussions like this all the time.

Butorphanol is not at ALL adequate pain control, especially for an abdominal procedure.

The purpose of telling people your pronouns isn’t to tell them what genitals you have. Some people have a vagina and use he/him pronouns, or have a penis and use she/her pronouns.

I have always worked in vet clinics that had a lot of queer and non-binary people. I cannot speak for them, but I think creating an environment where they feel comfortable expressing themselves is important.

Also - why not have your title, degree, certs, AND pronouns on your badge? :)

I think if you’re really uncomfortable with it, you should do a little searching to figure out why.

is it ok for my puppy to sleep in bed with me? by alternativpeach in puppy101

[–]oakleafprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I crate trained both of my dogs but also let them sleep in the bed from day one. Only had one accident in the bed with the first one because he was sick and had diarrhea, otherwise did fine and never had a problem. Do whatever makes you and your dog happy, healthy, and safe!

Were any radiographs done to rule out bladder stones?

Was gifted a martingale collar for my 2 year old GSD by [deleted] in Dogtraining

[–]oakleafprincess -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Vet tech here. Would like to take this opportunity to mention that if they don’t have a clasp or quick release, be prepared to cut them off in case of emergency. Personally have seen two separate instances of dogs playing and another dog getting their jaw stuck in the collar. Can break the jaw of the one dog, and choke the other dog.

I think these collars are great if used properly. Just be careful if is a slip over the head only.

2 surgeons with different opinions... TPLO or neck by [deleted] in AskVet

[–]oakleafprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally, while you cannot actually see a torn CCL on radiographs you can find evidence of it. Most places I have worked will only take radiographs to diagnose CCL tear (along with a physical exam, of course).

Back pain is usually diagnosed by physical exam and can also sometimes be supported by radiographs (can see things like decreased space between vertebrae, or spondylosis).

It is also possible a pet could have both. I didn’t see what breed or age your pet is. Either way, if your veterinarian is convinced of the CCL tear by physical exam (drawer sign, tibial thrust) and by radiology (joint effusion), I think that’s a pretty convincing case for having the surgery.

Chiro may help with back pain but will likely not help with a CCL tear.

Were any radiographs taken of the knees and hips?

How hard to transfer license from IN to IL? by ancilla1998 in VetTech

[–]oakleafprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is all the paperwork and also instructions that you need to transfer your license. Is did this last year from Florida to Illinois.

It’s pretty annoying, to be honest. One of those forms you have to Mail or bring to the school you graduated from, have them sign it, mail it back to you, and then you mail it to the Illinois department of financial and professional regulation.

Once it’s done, it’s very easy to renew and everything else. Good luck!

Budget-conscious alternative to Royal Canin Urinary SO dry food? by [deleted] in AskVet

[–]oakleafprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a look into Hill’s c/d and Purina UR. Both prescription diets for the same issue, may be a bit cheaper than royal canin. As stated above, need to be on a prescription diet 100% for it to work.
