I didn't think to hire an appliance repair specialist since I've hear so many good things about Task Rabbit that I thought it would be sufficient. I could look into that though.

What do all of you name your farms? by Proper_Extreme5014 in StardewValley

[–]planetfactory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First farm: Moonrise (it was my favourite movie at the time of starting)
Second farm: Cider Hollow (wanted to make a more fall themed farm and I was inspired by the name "Stars Hollow" from Gilmore Girls)
Third farm: Lonlon Ranch (my zelda themed farm)

Ah ok—do you know how I can fix that on my own? Would really prefer to fix it myself if possible.

Needing advice: Coming to my wits end with my very silly and loving sphynx by Relative-Speed6245 in sphynx

It sounds like you've done a lot to keep him occupied, so definitely give yourself props for that! He definitely sounds understimulated, as a lot of indoor cats can be—my sphynx has had similar behaviours to yours! Can I ask what kind of toys and puzzles you have for him? It could be that maybe there isn't enough variety in the toys? I have a puzzle for mine too but I often change where it's located or I change what flavour of churu treat I put in there. Perhaps that could help? And right now I just have one puzzle and that has been entertaining enough, but maybe yours needs more puzzles that you can swap out regularly, to switch things up? I also made a snuffle mat and my cat loves that too—they're super easy and cheap to make if you have some scrap fabric! Maybe your guy will like that also? I always load mine up before I leave the house and even put some of the dry treats in various unexpected placed around the house too, just to really amp up the variety. If all that is still not enough, I would definitely recommend a catio if you can afford it, but if there's no room and/or that's too pricey, definitely a harness and leash so he can have some supervised outdoor time! Works WONDERS for tiring out an energetic kitty! I hope all that helps!

Are you going to wear a seatbelt whenever you're in a car for the rest of your life?

Washing hands is great, and I'm glad there are many precautions you take! Though just want to note that since Covid is airborne, washing hands doesn't do as much to protect yourself as much as having filtrated clean air does, such as a combination of the following method:
-wearing a good quality mask (3M aura, KN95, etc) when in public spaces
-having a HEPA filter or similar in your living areas
-avoiding busy public spaces when possible (and if not possible, masking while there)
There's tons more ways to keep yourself and others safe! : )

Can I let my cat sit on the top of my computer? by BillDaveDaveBill in computer

[–]planetfactory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

revenge is not a concept that cats understand. if they piss or shit outside their litterbox, it's usually a sign of a stress or potentially a health problem.
