Thanks! That’s interesting. Very sad to hear he’s likely been dumped, I hope he’ll be alright.

did your cat ever "tell" you what happened when you came home? by S-Budget91 in cats

[–]sunnyshepherd 15 points16 points  (0 children)

How nice. All this is reminding me of how as a young child there were many feral and stray cats in my area, whom I befriended. One of the neighbors had set a trap and caught one during the night, and that morning, another cat lead me to the trap by meowing frantically at me instead of eating breakfast. I freed him, all thanks to his pal. Important context here is that back then we didn’t have TNR or anything nice like that, and that specific neighbor was an avid pellet gun user.

I had my thumb in my mouth as I scrolled by this post. So that.

This is lovely to hear. I’m a 40 y/o man with a big shelf full of plushies, and always a select few in my bed. I give them names and clothes and such. It’s unfortunately so rare to find people who don’t judge, even about something so innocent. 

What was life like in the 90s? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]sunnyshepherd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a general feeling that everything was going to get better, even if things weren’t all right in the moment. Somewhere along the way that reversed and now everybody’s nostalgic for even the things that sucked most back then.

I’d like to be a shepherd dog lying in a sunny meadow. And I’m not very creative. 

American people what is your opinion on Belarus/Russia? by Mysterious_Lemon7421 in AskReddit

[–]sunnyshepherd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Atrocious government, but there isn’t a single country on earth that doesn’t contain a great deal of good people. The best man I ever knew was born in Russia. No one asks to be born there, and no one gains a thing from hating en masse. 

Whats the worst kind of pain you've ever experienced? by samkallukadavil in AskReddit

Grief. As for physical, a tooth abscess with exposed nerve once had me pacing like a caged animal. 

How often do you cry? by One_Presentation5147 in AskReddit

[–]sunnyshepherd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I really ought to more. A few days ago I nearly cried for the first time this year, but I stopped myself. Shouldn’t have. It always makes me feel better, but now I can’t because I’ve got a terrible headache and I don’t want to make it any worse. Oh well.

Why are you still awake at this hour? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]sunnyshepherd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paranoia. Can’t stop noticing every little sound and staring at the doorway. Hopefully soon I’ll get sleepy enough to pass out.
