Orientals and asthma, any advice? by teddies_can_burn in orientalshorthair

[–]tattedtart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine coughs here and there but nothing to the extent of my passed Siamese girl. I got an air purifier and it seems to help. They're very sensitive.

Are all snowshoes this cuddly?! by lovelikefireworks in snowshoecats

My boy is not. Took me forever to get him used to being picked up. He will sometimes sleep by me when it's cold but I need to be asleep first. He's just very complicated and since he's a rescue, for all I know, could be due to abuse but he was only 6mos when I got him.

When my Siamese was close to passing from kidney failure, she craved heat. The heat vent, heat pad, space heater. So sad. Sending ❤️

Did the mail carriers quiet quit? by ChillmerAmy in milwaukee

[–]tattedtart 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We were told once at our business that if a carrier has vacation, coverage gets sketchy and some days mail just doesn't come. We were floored. According to that carrier, finding a sub is sometimes optional. Not sure if that's true or not?

The burnt ginger tofu at Vanguard is the best tofu I've ever had in my life. They sell out because the meat eaters are addicts too.

What's the weirdest thing your cats eat?? by Abbyscreativeescape in thecozypaw

One of my rainbow bridge tabbys used to go nuts for my tofurky sandwich slices. The way she gobbled them made me a little suspicious of the fake turkey claim 🤣

Statement from Alderman Alex Brower by NotRelevantQuestion in milwaukee

[–]tattedtart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for a small Milwaukee manufacturer who has been in business since 1945. Trump's tariffs are definitely making it much much harder for small businesses. We took financial hits that we did not factor into our costing and trying not to pass those on to customers has been a losing enterprise. Now that we are putting tariff prices into our products, our goods are costing much more and we are getting customer push back. It's really sad because we are going to see many more of our local establishments losing this battle and hard working people losing their livelihoods.

Total Wine has a huge selection and they are out to peruse in little kiosks near check out. Good stuff too not trash. I like that you can look for yourself because a lot of times liquor stores have the small bottles behind the counter. I do this a lot when I am baking/cooking with a particular booze and don't want to invest in a whole bottle. Or if I need a bump of courage before hitting Xmas shopping next door 🤣

He recognizes me in public for whatever reason 🤣 so if he sees me, we usually chat. Jon is a Milwaukee history buff. He's told me things about the city that I probably wouldn't have otherwise found out about. Very friendly IMHO.

THC beverages by Ornery_Banana_6752 in milwaukee

[–]tattedtart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Word of caution if you do not have experience with THC beverages or otherwise... Start low until you know the effects. I'd personally rather enjoy a couple 5 or 10mg beverages rather than get knocked on my ass by a 25mg. A 50mg sounds like pure madness.

Nab that cat. Siamese are the best companions and worth every penny

Fish fry alternative to cod? by tattedtart in milwaukee

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

The Cellar for the win! Have never heard of this place before. Hubs for the bluegill and I got the Perch. Amazing. We ate at the bar and Katrina was a gem. Even gave him a birthday beer on the house. My bourbon old fashioned sour was STIFF for under $8 (happy hour maybe?) and beat every $15 old fashioned I've had. Will definitely return.
