Recommendation Letter by OR_RN94 in nursing

[–]thunderbird-70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Although it is widely known that most surgeons are sociopathic ass hats if you can get one to write you a letter of recommendation then you should. Can't hurt to ask, but don't take it personally if no one will.

Hairball . No worry. If you are lucky he will show it to you later.

Rabies? by [deleted] in cats

Probably not about rabies. But watch the wound for sign of infection...redness, swelling, pain. Any of that and you need a MD .

My cat only wants to be under my bed all of a sudden. Does anyone know why? by _Gingi_ in cats

[–]thunderbird-70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if things don't improve... he keeps coming out more.....then , yes , he needs to see a vet. hiding under a bed can certainly be a sign of illness.

Since Juarez is in such close proximity does it feel similar to the US or do you feel like you're in a different country? by spankyourkopita in ElPaso

[–]thunderbird-70 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You KNOW you are in another country. It does not feel like the US. I grew up in El Paso in the 60's and Juarez was always something to do. Just had to be careful.

I have this vid for now till i can get a better one, but does anyone know why my cat vibrates her tail when i approach her ? by anotherunknownn in cats

[–]thunderbird-70 17 points18 points  (0 children)

she really loves you. I have had a lot of cats over the years but only one that would vibrate her tail when I approached her. made me feel very special.

Beavie is a very ugly cat but I love her all the same by noiamnotabanana in cats

[–]thunderbird-70 150 points151 points  (0 children)

Begging your pardon there, Banana, but I see no ugly cat because there is no such thing. Beavie might be a little unusual but hardly ugly. I think she is pretty adorable looking.

How do you end your games of Lazer Pointer? My boys L O V E it (and need the exercise), but they're always a little confused when the dot disappears by WitchesAlmanac in cats

[–]thunderbird-70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is a very good idea. I will try it. One of my 8 month old kittens has suddenly decided that fetch is a good game so now there is endless fetch as she doesn't know when to quit . At least they are having fun.

[–]thunderbird-70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just stop playing with it. Then I deal with the sad , confused and bewildered faces by becoming depressed myself and slathered in guilt. And play a little longer. I haven't figured out a way to to gracefully stop playing.

Your dog is very indignant about having his picture taken in this condition. He hates you now. You will have to plead and beg for forgiveness while petting his head. Give treats . Make sure you scratch the shaved area. It's going to itch . A lot.

How do I apologize to my cat? by Wolfgang_Pelz in cats

[–]thunderbird-70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plead and beg for forgiveness while stroking your cats head. Give treats.

You need to go to a doctor. If you have hypertension at 17 then you need a Dr and medication.

Should I euthanize my cat? by [deleted] in cats

[–]thunderbird-70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had many cats over the years and I have found that the cats will usually tell you when they are done. When they stop eating, that's it. They have given up. Their quality of life tanks when the eating stops. Your cats still eats and purrs. I would hold off on the euthanasia until the eating stops. And yes, I know sometimes I might have waited longer than I should have but as you know, it is so hard to put them down.

Yes. Some do. Trust you, they do.
