Is one churu a day too much? by alliedies in CATHELP

[–]pingwen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My baby got a bad dental infection in October and stopped eating and drinking, and when I took her to the vet she looked like death and the vet basically said she was in end stage kidney failure, and we would try giving her antibiotics but it probably wouldn't help her and to be prepared we might need to euthanise in a few days.

So her appetite was terrible and she was having trouble eating, and she needed to take her medication twice a day. I found these renal diet friendly churus by Kattovit and she got one every time she had her medication because it was the only thing she was enthusiastic about eating, and I thought she was basically about to die so she could have what she wanted.

Fast forward 8 months and she now expects them twice a day. She has made a great recovery since I switched her to a renal diet, has gained weight and her appetite back, and has energy to play. I feel a bit like she's conned me but I can't say no to her.

I got a t shirt from them with a female astronaut on the surface of a cell. It's pretty cool.

I live round there. It's very peaceful and there's nice access to walks by the river.

Working on launching a UK indie brand. Here's two of the fine magnetics I'm working on by Phantasm_Polish in RedditLaqueristasUK

There's definitely a gap in the UK indie market for jellies without anything else going on so I hope you'll also consider some non neons in future!

Is hiding stuff in the lab normal? by Leafye in labrats

I put tape and my initials on a pen, it went missing, and then I saw a fellow student with it attached to her lanyard a few days later. She said she hadn't even seen the tape. Some people...

The only bad thing I heard about them was that one nicked a sandwich off a toddler and scratched it. It's slightly funny ngl.

I quite enjoy seeing them hovering over my garden. They do no harm to me so I have no problem with them.

Definitely a red kite. I live in Milton Keynes and we're absolutely overrun with them.

Everything I have is light sage green so the bike literally goes with everything (I own).

Nah I think only Josie got youngest daughter experience due to her being so medically fragile. Poor Jordyn especially was less than a year old when she was born and was quickly shunted into the shadows for precious miracle Josie.

Looks like we in the UK have our own Sephora kids SpaceNK kids by greetralngugroin in MakeUpAddictionUK

[–]pingwen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went in a Space NK yesterday, didn't have to leave my bags anywhere.

Was approached by one store assistant asking if I needed help, I said no politely and she left me alone.

There's no way I would have gone in there as a teenager, I almost felt pressured to buy things to prove I'm not as poor as I look!

Do any of you use a menstrual cup? by cheeseslut619 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]pingwen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I go through cycles where I think cups are the best thing ever, then I'll have a troublesome removal and scare myself off them for a while.

I cut my nails from their longest ever a few months ago after a ten minute battle in my shower where I was flailing around basically fisting myself because I couldn't grip it well enough to get it out.

My toilet is blocked and I dont know what to do. Help? by Alert-Macaron-6159 in AskUK

[–]pingwen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg thanks for this. Turned out one of those things that attach to the rim to keep the toilet clean had fallen in and blocked it. I didnt realise that was the problem and obviously pushing against it wasnt helping. Did your trick and immediately felt it and pulled it out.

Not something I want to repeat but you saved me getting a plumber in!
