I might be biased, but my very first (and only) kitty that I got at eight weeks old is still alive. She turns 17 in July. She was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism a year ago. A couple weeks ago she was diagnosed with small cell lymphoma (cancer) in her intestines.

Money is probably the determining factor for life expectancy because figuring out she had cancer in her intestines set me back $3000. 😅 Now that she’s on medication though, she is as lively as ever and is gaining a bunch of weight back which is fantastic 😊

That sounds like a you problem, not a cat problem

I find that hard to believe too. I’ve never known anyone who’s had a cat die younger than like 15, but I suppose it could be true

There is literally a Wikipedia page dedicated to cats that have lived to be older than 25 years: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest-living_cats

Since then, Citron has focused more on closing its community, requiring users to prove they have a modded Switch to unlock certain features.

Oh my gosh you are totally right! It’s been while since I’ve seen the original

Why was the fourth panel edited to censor, “Jesus Christ” ?

Also get them something better than Purina. I’m sure that Purina dry kibble is full of carbohydrates and doesn’t have very much protein if you look at the dry matter basis. If you don’t know what dry matter basis is, you’ve got some homework to do.

Try purée. It’s the only kind my cat will eat. It’s a texture thing. She doesn’t know what to do with the big chunks in regular cat food.

I know somebody personally who had a cat climb into the dryer and die that way because they had already loaded it and then walked away and then came back and started it :(

I hate cilantro…

• In 1998, the Salvation Army refused to comply with San Francisco’s laws regarding domestic-partner benefits, costing it $3.5 million in city contracts and leading to the closure of certain programs for homeless people and the elderly.
• In 2001, the organization tried to strike a deal with the Bush administration, which would have allowed religious charities that receive federal funding to circumvent local ordinances against anti-LGBTQ discrimination. (The organization also threatened to stop all of its New York City operations in 2004.)
• In 2012, a Salvation Army branch in Vermont was accused of firing a case worker after learning she was bisexual.
• Also in 2012, Salvation Army spokesperson George Hood said the organization views same-sex relationships as sinful. “A relationship between same-sex individuals is a personal choice that people have the right to make,” Hood said at the time. “But from a church viewpoint, we see that going against the will of God.”

Allow me to introduce you to my favorite fork. I feel like yours would rotate in the hand while applying downward cutting force.

Hey I have one of these case sensitive Mac OS X stories as well!

I gave it a try one time, and I found out the hard way some developers don’t test everything in a case sensitive environment. I don’t remember what specifically went wrong, but Adium, The instant messaging client, blew up because it couldn’t find certain files on the local hard drive.

Let’s put that briefcase back in his hand so he can be left holding it when Tesla’s stock tanks

From a childhood of dealing with them myself, my best guess is you don’t have them resting close enough to the wheel. They need to be just a few millimeters away otherwise your brakes are mushy and weak

My 16-year-old cat just needed an ultrasound a few days ago, and they gave her some sedative that made her go completely limp in my arms within like 30 seconds. I was not even remotely prepared for that, and it felt like she died in my arms. Needless to say, I cried a bunch and I think I also got a taste of some shit I was not ready for that day.

I wish people would quit saying this. It delayed the appointment of Matthew Whitaker as the ambassador of NATO for 25 hours

Don’t buy cheap Chinese shit off Amazon and you won’t have this problem

For some reason nobody gave any suggestions for a client to use. If you are familiar with Apollo for Reddit, there is a spiritual successor here on Lemmy called Voyager: https://vger.app/
