I finally plugged in the secondhand tv. No signal. Guess I need to buy a coaxial cable…

I see them at Bunnings for like $8 and I think I have the appropriate outlet in my wall but is there any particular kind to choose? Was looking at this in 3 or 5 metres https://www.bunnings.com.au/click-5m-coaxial-pal-tv-cable_p0201534

Ps. Sorry if this sounds dumb. I’m not big on tv and for many years didn’t even bother to have one. I just got a very cheap secondhand one to watch dvds.

My stitching isn’t as small or neat as I’d like but I have to take longer wider ones to put less stress on the thin fabric and am trying to get it fixed quickly. There are more patches to be done.

Tried the meds in food again… Melbcat sat in her dinner and then sat on the comforter I’m mending. I’d got her to sniff the food on her fur but she wouldn’t wash herself. I told her she had ten minutes before I cleaned her fur and gave her meds directly so she did lick it off. But she’s refusing to eat the rest. I’m just trying to spare her a full oral syringe of everything she takes ;-;

Edit: I told her she had ten minutes to eat it and she started eating 🤯 She’s had a fair bit of it. Though it is the extra fancy food so unsure if that will work again
