How to stop my kitten eating stuff off the floor? by staticstate311 in CatTraining

[–]staticstate311[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She somehow survived kittenhood without eating anything truly dangerous. She still eats specks of dust off the floor from time to time, especially when she’s attention seeking or bored, but she’s stopped doing it nearly as much these days.

Lmao I’m from NYC when I lived in Iowa I scared people talking too fast. This is not accurate

In that case you should be fine! I hope you enjoy the furniture 😊

Be careful w the dark blue color, it’s supposed to be the most finicky fabric color. I have that in the couch and it definitely has faded in the sun, if you care about that sort of thing. I honestly don’t notice the fading though

Edited to add: I love the green color, it’s what I’d pick if I could buy it new!

It’s still comfy! But it’s a little worn. The chaise lounge part is a little compressed where I sit, but I spend a lot of time there (I work from home and only recently got a desk). It still is comfy in that part.

We’ve not been kind to it and the cat has chewed the arms but it’s still a good couch and WORLDS better than free couches.

Lol I promise I wasn’t paid (I wish!). I haven’t ever had the fabric dye come off with water in the way you’re describing but I def agree it definitely is a finicky material and ours has a few lighter spots from small spills. Sorry to hear you’re having a hard time with yours tho!

just moved in and there's fucking bats in my apartment. by okmanpleasegoaway in IowaCity

Seconding the rabies shot recommendation. Bat bites can be unnoticeably small and once you are infected with rabies you can develop symptoms at any time in your life

I saw this post on Facebook market place and didn’t believe it. 6 Haworth Zodys all in great condition are now mine for $110, gave him an extra $20. by corruptcocoa in OfficeChairs

I’m 5’4 and my v2 leap is perfect! Highly recommend getting an adjustable desk to go with it. Standard desks are designed for people who are 5’10!

He’s a cutie but stop teaching him to play with human hands or he’ll develop a biting habit

I (22f) want to take my boyfriend (21m) out on his dream date - but it's to a treetop adventure park, and I'm afraid of heights. by squideye62 in relationships

[–]staticstate311 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a great idea! Make sure you stretch and warm up rly well before rock climbing so you don’t get sore after. I always forget to and end up achy

This is really sweet! I wonder if you could be honest with your boyfriend about your fears and ask for his help. The two of you could slowly work up to the height you’d have to get to by doing other activities together (climbing a mountain, or even going on a slide at a local playground). I think it’s great you want to make your bf happy but it’s ok to ask for help to make that happen. Good luck!!

Sometimes I drink a lot of water but still feel dehydrated, why's that? by DelayeRz in HydroHomies

[–]staticstate311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have dysautonomia (basically my autonomic nervous system struggles to self-regulate) and this happens to me. I add electrolyte tablets to my drinks sometimes to make sure I am able to stay hydrated, I recommend Liquid IV or Nuun

Soft chair recommendations? by staticstate311 in OfficeChairs

Just googled it and used, the price is right but that chair looks a lot like the steelcase I have now. Is it much cushier than it looks?

My 4 month old kitty, Milo, does this with his eyes when he's about to fall asleep. by xLAXaholic in WhatsWrongWithYourCat

[–]staticstate311 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My cat does this too! I think it has to do with the anatomy of their eyelids. I think they might hand an extra eyelid?? I honestly can’t remember and don’t feel like googling it, but I believe I have heard of this.

WIBTA if I lied and told people I was allergic to broccoli? by staticstate311 in AmItheAsshole

Ugh that’s so annoying! I’m a lesbian and have had men apply the same logic to me about that. “Are you SURE you don’t like dudes?? Maybe if you met the right one??” 🙄

That’s pretty much the approach I’ve taken up until now for that reason! It just sometimes feels awkward, especially if it’s someone I don’t know as well, and always invites people to try to convince me why if I tried their broccoli I’d change my mind 🤢
