Melbcat asked for uppies today and proceeded to have a long cuddle and scritches with a visitor! That was so cute. She pouted and sulked when cuddle time had to end before she was ready.

spoilerShe’s still crying and wanting extra food (among a couple of other things) so I called the vet again about steroids for ibd flare. They talked about the side effects, blamed the osmolax, told me to monitor and call back Monday.

It seems they don’t want to deal with it but I keep calling to stay on it as long as she’s not feeling well. If there’s anything I can do for her comfort I will.

I’ve managed to screw up my sleeping pattern again.

Bonfires are so nice.

She never used to ask for anything but I’m hoping she’s just got more confident to voice her needs. It might be her age too

Melbcat is being very squeaky and squirmy. She’s learned to cry for the heater to go on, for extra snacks of wet food, and sometimes for no reason I can see. I’m hoping she’s just jealous of the computer getting attention. Maybe she just wants love.

I’m playing games way too much but right now it’s just what I’m doing.

Be careful as you don’t know who you’re meeting. Anyone can pretend to be anything on the internet.

Also still be careful as even if the person is a girl looking for friends, because there’s a reason some of them don’t have any.

Cat tmi, poo talkMelbcat has been to the vet because she started crying again… it may be that the accidents were from overcompensating with the osmolax, and now it’s been drastically reduced she’s crying again possibly due to the constipation returning.

There will be a small regular dose (say 1/8tsp) that will slowly increase until a balance is found.

I feel a bit silly but relieved that that could have been it. It’s ok. I’m her mum and it’s my job to worry.

Yep… the social media age verification was the thin end of the wedge.

The answer to kids accessing age inappropriate content is education and parental supervision, not censoring the internet and infringing on all the adults. But then the government couldn’t push laws to increase surveillance and receive popular support.

I really wish I’d had the time and energy to degoogle and had never started using cloud storage. I’m going to have to back up all of my photos in case I lose access when I refuse to hand over my ID. (Which I should have already done.)

I also really should have switched to Duck Duck Go ages before this

 

There’s not much to be done over Winter so I’m deciding what my plans are for Spring.

Are you planning or prepping anything? Improving the soil over winter?

 

This grant is a great step, kitten season is coming

 

Yes Coles are price gougers and part of a duopoly so I hate recommending them.

But if the drop off part of things is a challenge at least there’s the option to use this.

 

Seems Yarrabyte has got on the beers?

Winter is coming, bills will be high. Do you have tips to help us get by?

Winter is coming. Any plans?

 

An advocacy service over the phone for people living with opioid dependence.

Things are really bad in my area and Victoria is the only Australian state that still charges for methadone. There’s not much I can do individually but share resources and hope it helps someone.

It's really cooling down now… What are your plans if any?

 

Prices are always rising.

What have you found good for saving a dollar?
