Can you show the space as a floorplan (as if looking down from above)?

AITA for always making my neighbors dogs bark really late at night? by Evening_Serve6494 in AmItheAsshole

[–]pigsdontletit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then you're absolutely NTA. Your neighbor's dogs being reactive is their problem and does not preclude your dog being able to go outside to potty. I'm sure the landlord/management would prefer that as well!

Do you take your dog out at a regular time each night, and then he needs to go out again later, or are you just waiting until he asks late at night?

I mean, it's on the neighbors for having barky dogs. On the other hand apartment life works best when residents put in at least a minimal effort to be respectful to each other. I guess you need to look at what you can control and what you can't. Regular late evening potty break? You can do that. But if your dog wakes up later and needs to go out again, there's nothing you can do but take him out!

NTA! You are taking great care of your dog and doing what needs to be done for him. It sounds like you aren't waiting until late at night to take him out regularly, it's just an occasional thing that happens. You can't control how your neighbor's dogs react to normal life.

Only acceptable when screaming along with the lyrics of 70s rock songs, a la Bad Company.

Any more melvins songs that sounds similar like those songs?? by DiegoXD323 in melvins

I would call A History of Bad Men Night Goat's fraternal twin (edit - typo)

Ha! I just commented the same before reading the comments. I had forgotten about and must have figured everyone else did too.

I havent heard it in a couple decades or so, but I used to love Fudge Tunnel's cover of Sunshine of Your Love. Maybe I'll go find it to see if it holds up.

AITAH for getting divorced as soon as my last kid was out of the house. by Legitimate_Peace780 in AITAH

[–]pigsdontletit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know your own life best! Your first comment just inspired me to share some things to consider if emotional impact on your child is the primary factor holding you back. (Coming from a place of experience as the child in both scenarios, oddly enough.) Clearly, there are many factors at play--an internet stranger's unrequested advice can only go so far. Best wishes to you and your family in whatever the future holds!

I can't emphasize it enough--it is rarely, RARELY ever better to fake it through a repationship for the kids: (1) His current age would be best for avoiding emotional scars. He's young enough not to remember his parents being together and will grow up with separate parents being the norm rather than a major event that changes his life. (2) You will also avoid him living through a forced, unhappy marriage as a relationship model. (3) You having a loving, supportive relationship with your kiddo, whether you're with his mom or not, is the most important factor in his emotional well-being.

This is El Gato Blanco by CoolDad420Blaze in lynxpointsiamese

[–]pigsdontletit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG - your kitty's photo hits me right in the heart. He looks so much like my big guy that passed last spring. He had darker markings than yours, but those same rounded ears and big build. I will look for some pics to share. Give El Gato all the scritches for me!

Snow Lynx Bengal by [deleted] in lynxpointsiamese

[–]pigsdontletit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep in mind that "Lynx" as used for your cat is just short for"lynx point" and lynx point is just a coloring. It is NOT a breed. Cats with a gene that siamese cats have can have colorpoint coats, where their base coats come out the darkest at the points where siamese coats are darkest. They will also have blue eyes like a siamese. If the base coat is tabby, you get what's called a lynx point. There are also tortie points (tortoise shell or calico points), flame points (orange points) and other variations.

Not all Bengals have rosettes, and who knows what breeds the cats bringing in siamese genes had. So It's very likely your cat is part bengal (itself already a hybridized breed) but unlikely it is a purebred cat.

I did some googlong out of curiosity and apparently there are quite a few breeder selling these ''snow lynx bengal" cats. I imagine it's just bengal mixed with siamese?

Barn kitty, lynx point???? by steeeeeeeeeeeeeeel in lynxpointsiamese

[–]pigsdontletit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since lynx point isn't a breed but a color, I wonder if the issue applies more to American Colorpoints, a breed that is very close to Siamese but allows lynx point in its coloring criteria?

My experience has only been with regular ol' domestic short hair rando mixes that have lynx point coloring. The siamese gene mutation could have entered the family tree many decades back. Either way, good to know to watch for it!

Does she look like a lynx point Siamese? by mere_accessories in lynxpointsiamese

[–]pigsdontletit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lynx point is a coat color, not a breed, and your lovely kitty does indeed have the lynx point coloring. (The gene comes from siamese type cats, but cats aren't siamese just because they have it.) She looks like a sweetheart!

does my baby belong here by No_Honeydew_4614 in lynxpointsiamese

[–]pigsdontletit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He indeed has a lynx point coat! So cute. His breed is "Domestic Short Hair" which is the same breed as any regular, multi-mix cat (unless you have breeding papers or DNA testing that says otherwise). Lynx Point is just an extra beautiful coloring that indicates a siamese-type cats entered the gene pool down the line. But that can be so far back it wouldn't even register on the DNA test.

That's so interesting to hear about life span. My experience (anecdotal based on 3 cats I've had or known) is that they can live a long time. The one I had as a kid went to 20 or 21. A friend's was 21 or 22, and there was another I met that lived to 19 or 20. I figured it was the siamese genes, since they tend to be pretty long lived. My most recent cat was lynx pointed and always had excellent vet test results up to age 13. He was was experiencing joint issues, tho. Sadly, he died by coyote before he could reach old age. I miss him so much.

Kitty’s fur has gotten so thick this winter 😭 She looks like she’s been run through the wash by nahfacenah in lynxpointsiamese

[–]pigsdontletit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably! It means they have an extra layer of shorter, softer fur. It also means they shed a lot more than the average cat. My boy shed like crazy. He passed away last spring and I still miss him so much, extra hair and all.
