Miss Meow bounced back from her general anaesthetic extremely quickly. She was back to normal the next day, much more resilient than Mr Woof who needed drugs and a cone on his head for a week.
Melbcat had a general anaesthetic for a tooth extraction at 14yo and pulled up okay. Tomorrow is never promised but I hope that’s some reassurance.
Good luck to Gibson.
Edit: If it’s a tooth extraction I was told to give mine chunks of cooked meat afterwards instead of soft wet food that could get into the stitches.
If it’s a late spaying or something that leaves a wound she can potentially reach, remember that a baby shirt or onesie is an option to protect the site instead of or in addition to the cone. Tricksy little hobbits.
Three weeks done in new hard job type. Now additional support is removed BUT I'm not longer having these tasks sent to me as a high priority, so now I'm getting way more normal things in combination with the hard things which is very nice. It was like 1 in 2 and now it's more like 1 in 10. Much more chill than first three weeks when it was just hard new thing all the time
Got offered the job from the interview on Friday. Now just to decide if I actually want to take it. My replacement is starting for my current role on Thursday.
i have nowhere else to bitch to but listen to this bullshit that i have to go through in fucking perth for an ADHD diagnosis (transferred from NYC). i get the referral in june and submit it to the ADHD clinic of WA that shows availability from july. they tell me it takes upwards of 8 weeks to get the referral accepted. this took 10 weeks, they accepted. in order for me to book an appointment i need to pay a $200 deposit. i pay the $200 deposit, and the first appointment isn't until the middle of january.
It’s probably because there has been a flood of ADHD and Autism diagnosis requests in the last few years due to greater awareness. And it takes 10+ years to train a psychiatrist. So there’s a sudden massive demand but no extra specialists. I know that doesn’t help the frustration but at least it might help explain the wait times.
So far it's all smooth sailing with using my friend to help me with some business design stuff. It's much easier explaining what you need to someone who already gets the way you think. They also seem really excited to be working together again, we made a good work duo in our past job. So fingers crossed it stays all positive.
I used to leave my handbag in my car in the garage. Now that my car is in the yard, I bring it inside. That momentary of panic "Where did I leave it?" because I'd been out and about this weekend.
Oh it's there hiding behind the coffee table. Mother fucker. I now have a designated spot.
Designated spots for things like that is very important. Especially keys, I don't understand people that just throw them anywhere and then have to do a search every time they leave the house.
Man, indie game trailers are a real rabbithole on Youtube. You watch one and keep getting suggested more. They all look interesting but I don't have the time

Gibson is going for an operation tomorrow where she’ll be under anaesthetic and tbh I’m pretty worried.
It’s got to be done but yeah, fluffball is a real important part of my life and yeah. It’s stressful.

Mickey is a little fiend for these dental treats, he absolutely loves them.
I guess I'll go to petbarn and grab a massive tub of them. They're the only treat he really begs for 😂
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 353d
Can you take a pic? Would love to get Fluffball away from what she likes currently (temptations)
StudChud@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 353d
The brand is called Greenies, it's dental treats for cats (they also do dogs but that's irrelevant here lol!
They have chicken, tuna, and catnip flavours. Mickey is a little demon fiend for the catnip flavoured ones 😂

Good idea, sometimes buying in bulk is cheaper. And definitely hit up the specials.
I’ve found sometimes if you let an item sit in the cart you might get a coupon

Unpopular (?) opinion: the two greatest TV shows ever are Iron Chef and Grand Designs

CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone · 5 pts · 353d
I've always hung my keys up in the same spot. I have taught YL the same after once having found her car keys in her handbag.
Everything in my house has a spot and if that item is not there I lose my shit.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 353d
same, it makes life easy 👍
and if you look at house design cupboards are placed where things belong, like pantries, laundry, etc . It's not rocket science

beach
I need that calming.
the rhythms of the maintenance work around the beach, the fishermen, the bait catchers, people out for walks, joggers, dogs
all the wild life, the tides and weather,
being in it so many days a week you get to know it and get into the rhythm too
it's nice

I love cats. Hoping to become the eccentric cat person I wanted to be as a kid.
I just wish I was rich so I could afford to adopt the old babies and have help as I got older

or do cat sitting?

Radio show review
Around the World in 80 Days. BBC.
I just couldn't enjoy this on account of what an appalling person Fogg is as well as all the racism.
Tho I do like how female characters in Verne stories are assertive. That was probably to show how weird the women were.
