pluto ! I loved the manga and randomly found out that it got an anime adaptation last year. beautiful intense sci fi about sentient robots
to be loved is to be changed… into garfield
a secret, maybe unknown to you, rule of 196 is that we support all our trans members. it’s okay, you didn’t know.
I’m so burned out with my masters degree at the moment. late on everything and the quality of all my work is awful. feels like I will have to write to my professors apologising for doing such a terrible job 🫠
going to the state library to smash out some assignments I’ve been woefully avoidant of all week… hurray
Alternatively you could do the earplug-ignore thing when he cries at the door/harness but invest additional time to engage him when he’s quiet, that way you aren’t encouraging the behavior if you don’t want to be.
I like this idea. I agree that he definitely feels fulfilled by his walks, & unfortunately playtime doesn’t really do it for him in the same way. I’ll get some more treats to encourage some better behaviour and also get earplugs so I can sleep at night
routine daily walks would be great, but thanks to work and life schedules I can only manage the weekend alas…
thanks for such a comprehensive answer! he’s a single cat, so no attention was dispersed from him - but I can definitely see stress from the sudden new walk routine being a factor.
I’m currently moving towards trying giving biggins some extra playtime activity during the time he’d normally be walking, at least to burn some energy?
jackson is a great resource haha, thanks! I suppose it’s somewhere between boredom, attention and generally being quite vocal.
hahahahaha! thanks for the laugh.
this rules
skinamarink! I heard many mixed reviews but I’m glad to say that my experience of it was great. it’s slow and weird and is quite abstract, but I actually got quite immersed.
$24 AUD ($16.30 USD) for 500 grams of coffee a month. I drink a cup a day and it’s enough for me and my partner to get through. I use a stovetop moka pot and get beans from the local markets here in melbourne :-)
