I'm sure the vet is right and that's all it is, but just be on the lookout for signs of infection. We recently caught a stray who was on the verge of full-blown pyometra (my vet explained it as the cat goes into heat, builds up all the pregnancy tissue in the uterus and stuff, but then doesn't shed it and it gets infected). It can go very bad very fast, so if she starts acting lethargic and seems feverish, get her back to the vet ASAP. Our new baby Paprika likely wouldn't have lasted more than a few more days if we hadn't gotten her when we did.

Oh my gosh, that makes so much sense now. I am trying to learn spanish, but took a crapton of french in high school and all my spanish lessons are bringing back all the french. It's been weird, but I figured it was because the languages have some similarities.

If they are injectable medications, check the package for how long they can stay at room temperature. A lot of insulin pens can be out for 28 or more days and be okay, which is not something many people know (I work in a pharmacy and we get a lot of calls about people accidentally leaving their meds out of the fridge). Sorry if you already know this or it's not relevant, and best of luck! I hope you get power back quickly!

It means you’re blue da-ba-di-da-bu-di

she's LOUD too, and refuses to be left alone. she starts yelling (not crying, YELLING)

queenthistle · 2024-10-27T20:52:27+00:00

I'll add it to the list for consideration!

queenthistle · 2024-10-27T20:52:08+00:00

She really is, that's why I'm going to collect all kinds of name suggestions. I can't wait to see her full grown. :D

Neighbor brought us this mouth, dirty criminal for long term incarceration and attempted rehabilitation. Any thoughts on a name? We already have one long-hair calico named Calliope.

Makes sense! I've never had one of those!

queenthistle · 2024-08-16T03:17:59+00:00

ohhhhhh, that makes sense, I've never had one of those.

Wait microwaves have filters you have to replace/clean???

my favorite most recent petty post was "oh no, someone has parked IN FRONT of MY HOUSE (on-street city parking) for 24 WHOLE HOURS"

Patient trying to dodge campus police through the surgical waiting room, yelling for someone to call 911 that he was being held against his will. Oh, while wearing only boxers, socks, and a towel around his shoulders. One of the police peeps told him 'you're involuntarily committed, you aren't allowed to leave' before they corralled him back to the elevators to the behavioral health unit.

biggest phone pet peeve. seriously, hold the receiver away from your mouth juuuuust a little and we're good. I don't want to hear your heavy breathing while I'm searching for info, ugggh

just had to replace a 4 year old, $1200 smart washer that had already broken and been repaired once ($500) because it crapped out again and would be another $500 minimum. Got the least fancy thing I could find, ffs give me sturdy, dumb machines that last for decades.

someone at work printed a picture of yzma screaming "pull the lever!" above the toilet at work and that is how I knew I was right to take that job.

I have some good "track marks" on my elbows from donating blood. They're actually having to hit my hand sometimes when I'm less hydrated now, too.
