    Self checkouts, Yay or Nay?

    I use self if it's only a few things. Sadly, I have to go to a human for a full order now. They changed the self check out and there's no room for all my groceries so I need a person to put in a code every time I put a bag in my cart.

    Cat Products Aren't Made for Cats?

    I'd love to see a cat tree that has woven sisal posts instead of or in addition to wrapped sisal. Every single cat tree has either wrapped sisal or cheap carpet, and my cat prefers woven.

    New kitty

    Play is a great way to increase confidence in cat, but you might need different toys. Those jingle balls never did anything for any cat I've known, I don't even know why they sell them. You may need to experiment to find what she likes, but wand toys are great, so are little mice. Kittens...

    I usually just take a couple days off work. My birthday is a bit bittersweet, as my grandmother died on my 8th birthday.

    Bob Barker Died

    I used to watch The Price is Right every time school was closed when I was growing up. I still remember as a little girl, asking my mom what he meant by that famous line and her explaining the sad reality of shelters and unwanted pets.

    This time I need help from parents of “human” children

    I'm not a parent, but I am a teacher and I've always considered the first 2-3 weeks as the transitional period. I'm a little surprised that the teacher is requesting a conference after only 8 days. Kindergarten is also a lot harder now than it was, it's more like first of even second grade. I...

    Question of the Day, Friday August 25, 2023

    I am horrible at foreign language. I took 2 years of Spanish in high school, learned nothing and most people in my career speak Spanish and have tried to teach me, and over 20 years all I've learned is a few words and phrases. However, I'd love to learn Japanese if I was able to. I've always...

    Question of the Day - August 24, 2023

    Wednesday. That way I'd only have to work 2 days before getting a break. Plus, I could do the shopping and laundry with less crowds, and schedule any appointments. It seems as if a lot of places are crowded even on Monday and Friday.

    Question of the Day - Tuesday, August 22

    Ground beef, browned and mixed with rice and whatever fresh or frozen vegetables that are on sale, seasoned with herbs and spices. Lentils and rice are also good, and inexpensive but the lentils have to be soaked first.

    The subject I was best at was English. By 8th grade, I was reading on a college level. However, my favorite subject was science, especially biology and chemistry.

    Scared but loving kitten!

    I'd recommend play therapy. Get some wand toys and get the kitten moving! Running,pouncing and jumping. Often, kittens only want petting and cuddling when they're sleepy.
