She was just at the vet last week, because after day three of selective eating, I was concerned. Vet said there's nothing medically wrong with her. She is drinking normally, and she eats when I give her the right flavor of food. The right flavor is always a mystery though. Today was the first...

Hi everyone, Here's the situation: In the last week Shadow has been very finicky about food. She gets fed 4 small meals of wet food a day with dry food for the overnight. She will eat her dry food, eat her dinner and usually eat her breakfast. Lately she's been turning her nose up in the...

In May it will be 3 years. Moved to the outskirts of the middle of nowhere for my job because I was such of the commute. Ended up leaving that job after a year and started working at a shop that is a quarter mile from my house. Cut my commute from 35 minutes one way to less than a minute!

Shadow had the same attitude when I first adopted her. She was very affectionate, then acted like I didn't exist. She goes through phases, and I think that's normal and ok. I love her to bits and always want her near me, but sometimes she needs her own me time. Right now she's in a lovey phase...

Shadow gets small meals spread through the day. Usually 5am, 10-11am, 2pm, 5 pm and 8pm. She gets wet food at all these feeding times, but at 8pm she also gets dry food to supplement through the night. She's a grazer, so I had to start feeding her this way or her wet food would all go to waste...

Ah see I can't really afford to move to south America for a year so I'm doing the next best thing. Watch everything on Netflix with Spanish language instead of English lol. I'm gonna wrangle the seasonal landscapers that I see in the spring and summer to only talk to me in Spanish. A lot of...

I don't typically make new years resolutions, but last week I started one early. My resolution is to be somewhat fluent in Spanish by the end of 2019. I screwed around in high school and didn't learn much in the two years I took Spanish. I really want to learn just for myself, to prove to...

I used to work with a girl who had some medical conditions, and her cat used to wake her up if she stopped breathing in her sleep. A few weeks ago, Shadow suddenly stopped sitting with me and was spending her time exclusively with my dad. She would greet me at the door when I came home but...

I get the social introverts, my brother is one. He just doesn't do well talking to people he doesn't know. He's the one at the party hanging out with the dog rather than mingle with the other partygoers. The guy in question usually does come in later in the evening, when business is slower...

I don't know if you want to do like a blitz attack with the brush on his hindquarters, that would make it harder down the line to brush him. You could always try a distraction method. Stand him on a bed or flat surface, ply him with treats and while hes enjoying his good fortune, brush his...

I feel fortunate that my kitty is mostly accepting of medicine. She acts like a little kid, turning her head away, but she will let me cradle her without a towel to administer meds. I did this really cool thing the last time I had to dose her. I sucked up the 1/2 ml and squirt it into another...

The nice thing about my job is I literally can walk away and do something that looks busy. Lol It's like "Oh look those products need to be straightened" "Oh look I have to wipe down this counter" it is literally one of the best things to politely dismiss someone. The funny thing is with this...

Having discussed it with @kashmir64 's son, I kind of confirmed my own conclusions about this guys behavior. I haven't seen the guy since, which is good because there's a good chance I embarrassed him more with my own shock than anything. I'll be happy when my boss hires another guy to cover my...

I don't do steely well( too many years of customer service), deadpan I can do flawlessly. Lol

Whatever I spent was what I paid off, less in fees that way. Also if you use about 30-40% of your total balance that reflects better on your score. I can't recall if there was a minimum, it might have been 20 dollars. I really only used mine for minimal things, gas in the car, small grocery...
