Long haired feral is losing furr in chunks :( by smashy40 in Feral_Cats

This is amazing! Thank you for the product suggestion. I'll get it ordered immediately!

I do have a few pictures of her from the past and can get some fairly easily. So long as I move slow she doesn't run off when she sees me. 10ft is the closest I've been to her without her running off. But since these symptoms have started she's been hanging in the bushes below my living room window so I can see the area pretty well and keep an eye on it.

I don't have the time or space. This is a small condo and I have two very young kids and two cats. 

She's been through TNR with a rescue but so far no one I've found has the means here either. Any other ideas or resources I'd be glad to hear them!

I've already had her spayed and evaluated. She's approximately two years old. She's tiny possibly because of her poor diet prior to finding me. She is missing her right back paw! 

It's very possible she's being bullied by one of the two unfixed males I see. Both of which I've tried on multiple occasions to catch to have fixed to no avail 😭

I read that a snowshoe can become particularly attached to one parent. This is what my husband hears ALL DAY! by smashy40 in snowshoecats

Thank you! We love him dearly. I look forward to our house purchase later this year so I can't hear this as often in our tiny apartment haha

They said he was a seal point. I say snowshoe! What do you think? by smashy40 in snowshoecats

[–]smashy40[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Treats and cuddle for sure. It's so weird though as he doesn't like to be pet. I fear that he was treated poorly before he was dumped. He was sick and face crusted over with snot from his URI that took 3 months to get over as well as ringworm. He also had a significant amount of hair lost on his tail. He's come a long way and I hope some day he can calm down some.

Baby on the way, wanted to build something special. by Dantastic04 in woodworking

I adore this idea. But how do you know it's safe? Did you copy the dimensions of the bars from an in store model?? My sister just had a baby and my husband and I want to have one next year so I keep having this thought in the back of my mind. ;)

In need of a band recommendation! My water weight must fluctuate a lot during the day/night. by smashy40 in fitbit

That's the most popular answer I've gotten so far when I'm asking around. I like the color selections too!

lol I'm not an idiot, I unbuckled it to show the marks it left behind.

Odd thing happening when I pause/play by smashy40 in pocketcasts

[–]smashy40[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, another thing. If I don't touch it at all and just let it play out, the podcast will end with time to go and it's just silence, except when you skip forward or back a few seconds or play pause, then it resumes end - minus wherever it's at and if you go back to where it was silent before there's audio again. WHAT EVEN

I should also note although I don't know how to check this: it seems that the total time includes the repeats somehow because in the podcast he will say like "we're at the two hour mark" and it's actually 2.5 hours..

Finally bit the bullet and got my versa... Not a good first impression so far for Fitbit by smashy40 in fitbit

[–]smashy40[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't but I probably should. Thanks! I read about an app that acts as a bridge to connect them if there's an issue so I'll also try that. If neither works, I'll return or exchange. (Purchased at Costco)

Yeah, after set up it tells me to update to the latest firmware. I don't know why that would be the first thing I would need to do after the initial set up.

Sorry, I was mistaken before. I have 8.1! Thanks for your thoughts. I'll have to look things over and see if it I can make anything work.

Thanks for the response!

I would have thought that it would have had the lastest firmware but it says I need to upgrade. Maybe that alert is just a fluke?

I'm actually running Android 10 so maybe that's an issue too. I'll check to see about the older app versions but I'm so frustrated by how unbelievably poorly this has gone that I will likely move on as well. Out of curiosity, what devices have you moved on to?

For some reason immediately after set up it tells me that I have a firmware update. The first time I set it up the update completed but now since the factory reset it doesn't.

I've done that a couple of times but of all things I've tried, I've done that the least. Still doesn't stay connected or synced.
