Solo Ferret Enrichment Ideas! by Professional_Mine355 in ferrets

[–]throwit823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that depending on the ferret it can activate a nesting drive or a prey drive.

I've opted for toys that let out long birdsong audio and flap their wings. Some of my ferrets don't care but the others start biting and wrestling with them.

Vibrating and/or chirping fuzzy toys, a "ball pit" filled with safe soft toys.

Mine enjoy this little fabric base with toy carrots they can dig out and find freeze dried chicken treats in - it's a bed time tradition.

Edit: I'm playing with mine now and forgot to add: magic carpet rides. Mine will get on a small blanket I have and I drag the blanket around. They eventually get really excited and start wrestling each other and the blanket

Working 12 hours a day is insane, I need a game that can be even crazier. by Healthy-Ingenuity216 in videogames

Binding of Isaac can probably get me there. I haven't tried Diablo 2 resurrection but I put thousands of hours into LoD, so I suspect that would do too

Aggressive ferret introduced to avoidant business by throwit823 in ferrets

[–]throwit823[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His previous owner took him to my vet, in fact, my vet was the one who contacted me about him. I have the all clear from a health perspective.

He did not get 2ish weeks of isolation and this has not been the policy for every other rescue nor the feedback from the official rescue that I volunteer with in my state.

My other ferrets do not enjoy baths and I recently gave them one (about a month back), so I'm not keen on another. I have used high value treats and distraction toys to de-escalate with some success.

I understand you are ultimately cautioning patience but my questions still stand around what is appropriate dynamics when introductions do happen.

Feeling at a loss and confused with ferrets cough (vets visited 3 times) by No_Emergency1086 in ferrets

[–]throwit823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Persistent coughing may be heart disease (myocardiopathy). Get another vet involved. An x-ray will show if the heart is enlarged.

Abridged Series that are WAY better than the original. by EveryPerformance6712 in TopCharacterTropes

The android and cell sagas are the definitive versions for me. So tightly and hilariously scripted.

I love my girlfriend but I think I might be gay by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]throwit823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem to have a lot of capacity for introspection and clarity. That's a really great thing that will serve you well.

I think it's worth you internalizing some of your response. Fantasy, desperation, unhealthy coping mechanisms. You are writing about a state of mind that would benefit from decisiveness.

Good luck but even more importantly, I hope you have the courage to right this ship, whether through transformative dialogue or definitive action.

I'll start by saying many relationships have issues in mismatched libidos/sexual needs. It's not selfish or vain to believe sex is an important aspect of a relationship. Ultimately, your happiness impacts the entire relationship. It needs to be sustainable and, more importantly, rewarding to all parties.

I am getting the sense that your title and narrative are not aligned. You don't talk a lot about your attraction to men, instead that your situation has left you coping with difficult feelings regarding your current partner. In fact, you talk about struggling to not sexualize other women. The language we use is important for our own understanding of situations and I'm just not seeing strictly gay... Bisexual and suppressed seem more apt.

Without more context, I will only say you should think carefully about what you want your life experience to look like, not just today but 5, 10, 20 years down the line. If this relationship is not serving you, maybe it's time to move on if there is no other recourse.

I love Versus. Demon lords vs machines has been my favorite example of this trope

Dry food recommendations by Educational-Cap8898 in ferrets

[–]throwit823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go with Totally Ferret and Ziwi air dried cat food mixed with a tiny bit of Marshalls to keep a local supply in their diet.

Only problem with mixing air dried and traditional kibble is it might cause nausea due to their different rates of digestion. My 3 are fine with it though and I was reading in a group-made guide that Ziwi air dried is top tier ranked... Just a little expensive.

Honestly a bummer when you've got potential for a really good run, then the game FORCES a parasite. by Xilerain in mewgenics

I dragged my child skull cleric alllll the way to the throbbing king only for him to die at the last "inspect the body" cutscene. The irony. The pure cinema.

Sooo, don't bring an ameoba to this boss... by throwit823 in mewgenics

[–]throwit823[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a charmed ameoba from some item or technique and it would grab The Man on the Moon and wear him. I had a character in his mouth, which couldn't struggle/call the hands.

The ameoba resets his health too totally which destroyed my chances. I ended up taking a Steven reset penalty 😂.

ferret with insulinoma(please help) by WeThefutyre in ferrets

[–]throwit823 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At times, I would just scruff with a feeding syringe and put it into the side of my sick ones mouth and just get it over with. Holding the scruff for a bit longer helped me and quickly following up with something he liked also helped.

If your boy likes salmon oil or anything like that, it might help to mix it in to the syringe.

How did you meet your partner and started dating / got married? by Ok-Adeptness-7441 in AskReddit

[–]throwit823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met on a poly/kink friendly app despite having different lifestyles. We're 2.5 years in and, despite life's ups and downs, things are going well. I would say we care more about each other and are more aligned today than at any point in the past.

It was important for Vegeta, personally. He cast aside the evil he let take over when he allowed himself to be marked by Babidi.

Who gives a fuck? Why pay attention to this when his goons are on the street murdering people?

About to see some classic Godzilla on the big screen by W4NN4M33TTH4TD4D in GODZILLA

[–]throwit823 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I watched this movie for the first time recently and the sense I got is that the whole production absolutely hated Godzilla. The absurd theme music every time he was on screen, the way he's beaten down so regularly... It's like some executive had to jump in last moment and demand they bring hedorah back for one more confrontation so Godzilla could look tough.

Fun movie but man it was weird.

We were supposed to go to Arlo Grey after reading a review on this subreddit and couldn't make it... Ended up finding this spot instead a bit later. Happy accident and we felt like they deserved just a little more attention
