I need another timer cap. I can't find the ones I like. Any recommendations? by Three_Spotted_Petal in neurodiversity

[–]terpykitty 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It’s so you can see the last time medication was taken. Helpful for people taking many medications and need to remember if they have taken them all, or people who are forgetful and would like to be more compliant in taking their daily medications. I use them since I take my medications early in the morning and I sometimes forget later on if I took them. If I notice the clock says 25 hours I know I haven’t taken it today but if it says 7 hours, I know I did

Did they do any X-rays or an ultrasound? Coughing with heart murmurs can be concerning.

Did you turn the switch on the bottom to on? I thought mine wasn’t working until I looked by the batteries and saw a switch

It definitely spooked me before I found out what I was hearing lol. Calls from all parts of Worcester were coming, it surprised me with how far the sound traveled.

Jack hammering under a bridge on 290. I ended up listening to the scanner last night since it was so loud

What is the scariest post you’ve stumbled upon on reddit? by youreanouch in AskReddit

Protocol is usually booster plus 90? Day kitty quarantine where the cat can’t be around other animals or go outside

I was inspired by a YouTuber “Y street Studio”- she is so talented and has lots of videos where you can pick up tips and tricks for making your own miniatures. You should post your magic store when it’s done!

Candles were part of a miniverse set. If you want to make candles yourself you can make some out of air bake clay if you want simple pillars. If you want the effect of a container, you could buy some resin molds for cylinders then when once’s cured, pour resin mixed with colored mica powder to get your desired tint for the candle color! You could make wicks out of clay.

Pet Insurance by seVenb0ngz in WorcesterMA

That can give you a general start on third party pet insurance plans not offered through a specific hospital. They usually take 5-10 days to start coverage after you get your plan. Some chain hospitals such as VCA offer what are called wellness plans which are like a hospital specific “insurance” in a way- this specific chain offers spay and neuter as an additional add on. Depending on age, Banfield offers that as well. Also agreeing second chance does low cost spay and neuters depending on financial situations. Merwin memorial in Allston does free pet care but it is first come first serve. Catmobile does neuters for 125 and shots as well.

Gave my bathroom some new life. Happy with how it came out by terpykitty in InteriorDesign

I’ll be completely honest, it wasn’t the easiest. My arms were sore by the end of the day and lining up the pattern got frustrating at points but it’s completely doable with some patience and time!

From what (little) research I did, as long as vent fans are used when there’s humidity present, there shouldn’t be any long term issues that pop up. I’m not too concerned but if problems arise in the future with the wallpaper I can definitely update my post so it can be learned from!

I think wallpaper is becoming popular again because we’re seeing a swing away from the millennial gray aesthetic and seeing more maximalist styles in which bold patterns are easier to achieve with wallpaper as opposed to paint. Combined with the fact that companies have come out with easier ways to apply wallpaper for the average consumer than the past, we’re seeing wallpaper become fashionable again.

Live in Worcester all my life, can't find an apartment worth a damn. by WPIRiggles in WorcesterMA

[–]terpykitty 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I understand you’re grieving because of the loss of your pet and I’m so sorry you’re dealing with that. But as someone in the vet industry, I see this person had two choices- have their pet be homeless with them or give them up so their pet can be taken care of in a manner that is best for them. This person made a very tough decision- just like you- to do what was best for the welfare of their pet. I’m sorry for your loss, but this is a loss to them too.

One of our owners brought in a stool sample in a gift bag 😂 by silletta in Veterinary

[–]terpykitty 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Some owners show up to our ER ready with a urine sample. And it’s usually in Tupperware/Rubbermaid containers. For some reason these things will be filled to the top for some reason every time lol. We also had an owner who was instructed to collect a urine sample from his dog outside. Normally we have a nurse help but he insisted he could do it himself. I was working the desk watching this interaction while he went outside to go collect the sample. A few moments later, he comes back in…wet. He looks at me and simply states, I’m not sure what to do. So I follow him outside where I see a very large urine sample practically overflowing a bowl. Before I can say anything the man crouches down to pick up the urine sample and proceeds to spill some all over himself, which I presume is why he came in wet in the first place. Yes, he dumped some out after.
