  1. Did the dog's owners witness it happen? Is the dog vicious by nature? I'm so sorry Navy. The reason I ask these questions because I would think that you could take the owner's to court for allowing the dog to harm your kitten. I'm not trying to judge the owner's dog and I don't know the full story and apologized if I placed false judgments,

     

    Once again, I'm sorry.

    He's a great dog around people but he hates cats and mAle dogs. They have numerous files against them but there are no animal control services that will Take him. I'm seriously thinking of bringing him to the vet to be put now

    This morning we were moving an old mattress out of the house, he slipped right by me and before I could even notice it the neighbor's dog who was loose had him by the head and was shaking him, breaking his neck.

     

    I loved him so much, and I feel so guilty.

  3.  

    Anxiety or depression or any mental illness for that matter is so hard to deal with. I'm sorry for what you've gone through :( When others can't see physical symptoms they're quick to judge. I'm trying to switch anxiety medications so I'll have to look into maybe I'll look into klonopin. I'm on alprazolam 10mg 3x a day. Bleh, they're all so terrible haha. Acid reflux is nooo fun either D: oh gosh, I'm lucky in that department. I rarely get it it, but on the occasion I do it's really unpleasant :/ I was actually diagnosed with celiac's disease about 4 years ago also so I've been completely gluten free since then. Plus I cut the lactose and shellfish and all that jazz. I do find it helps :) less stomach aches!

     

    GUYS! Did you know that the medical marijuana bill (the compassionate care act) passed in NY just a few weeks ago? :)

     

    There's a lot of debate over the bill including the laws not allowing the canabis to be smoked and the 13 month waiting period. The medical conditions covered are also causing some stir. Thankfully it HAS been approved for Crohns and IBS. Hopefully later on the bill will become less strict as right now it's basically like not even having it at all. Getting access to the medication will be difficult

    It's sad how a lot of people don't believe in mental illness, or think it's not as tough to deal with as it is.

    I struggle with manic depression and severe anxiety, and it's pretty debilitating.

  4. I'd like to mention a documentary worth watching called Beyond The Myth it's about breed discrimination against pit bulls and why it is wrong. My neighbors have a teddy bear pitty appropriately named Tank. The dogs run free because we're very sheltered and on many acres of land. Occasionally Tank and his Great Dane buddy Belle will come over to say hello and my mom is terrified of both of them but more so of Tank. No matter how much affection I give him, let him lick my face, or play with him she's certain that one day he will " turn"

     

    It's sad such great dogs get put down all of the time based on misplaced emotions

  5. I'm a big fan of fanfiction so I've read the good, the bad, and the ugly. This was a poorly written, over-hyped, and disturbing book. There is a difference between BDSM and abuse, this contained a lot of the latter. I'm not ashamed of it, as an adult I can appreciate smut as much as anyone else, but I can tell the difference between good smut and bad smut, this is bad smut.

  6. Adorable little baby :D

     

    He's recovered well! I see his eyes lost the baby blue ^_^

    Yeah, most kittens do.

    My father's friend came over yesterday, and he hadn't seen him since the day we got him and thought he was a different kitten. He's not an ugly cat like some of my friends initially said, he just was sick and had dirt and snot all over him. Now that he's better he looks and acts just like any other kitten. Thinking back on what might have happened to him if we didn't find him is saddening. I try to think that someone else would have saw him and picked him up like I did. I worry about his mother and siblings, I wonder if they're okay.

     

    On a happier note, I ordered some stuff from newegg and decided to see if he would enjoy playing in the box.

    He plays and sleeps in the box, the only time he comes out is to poop and eat.

  7. This is the best RE I've ever gotten, I was browsing the auctions when it happened. I saw it and took a screenshot for a staff thread and didn't pay no mind to it because I thought it was just another junk item. I didn't take a closer look at it until I went into my inventory to put some items in my shop.

    It's apparently worth around 5mil.

    Edit: So glad I put it in my gallery because I got this event

  8. His URI came back, but we managed to get rid of it again with some stronger antibiotics.

    Update photo

    a82ac7d98c.jpg

    He's growing like a weed, when we got him he could fit in my palm, now he's about a third of the size of my 2 year old cat.

     

    The "collar" is a bracelet my mom found and we just put on him for a photo opt, don't worry, it's not staying on him.

     

    Edit:

    He wants to know who the handsome young devil in the photo I posted to TDNforums is.

  9. I'm not really sure why smoking (pot) is more egregious than smoking tobacco (around other people.) Unless you're in a tightly confined area or there are a hundred people smoking joints and blowing it at you, you're not going to get the hysterically overblown "contact-high" that everyone complains about.

     

    It's much more offensive to me, to have tobacco smoke blown your direction or even have to smell drunk people (at a concert or game.) This country is starting to lighten up, which I am very (cautiously) optimistic about.

     

    I also am horrendously aggravated by people who don't smoke/use mj and especially at pro-mj movements that want medical mj either as a first step, or as an only. This thinking makes no sense and only hinders those who would benefit from it and also keeps the stigma.

     

    I am planning on moving very close to a state which has legalized mj and currently live in two states, one that does not even have a medical option and has a (fairly restrictive) medical option but has also decriminalized up to an ounce.

     

    You need to be responsible, end of story. Nothing is completely innocuous, but mj extremely safe when used properly and when compared to the loads of terrible crippling alternative (of which I have tried literally dozens and are responsible for the loss of a decade of my life, I'm only 28 now.)

     

    I also rarely drink (the mixing of mj and alcohol isn't something I enjoy) and have never done actual drugs so myths dispelled right there.

    I just find the smells offensive, mostly. It's extremely unlikely that you'd get high off of secondhand weed smoke unless you're in a confined area with no ventilation (like a car with the windows rolled up)

  10. Marijuana causes no longer term effects on organs. Smoking it does cause some damage to the lungs but they aren't sure how much. Young healthy people would not have severe lung damage from smoking it. Other drugs, yes, marijuana, no. Your mother is most likely trying to scare you away from illegal substances, which I don't really blame her.

  11. I have pretty bad anxiety and have been on so many different medications for it. Most of these medication would harm my liver if I continue to take them for the rest of my life. Then I was introduced to the love of my life, Mary Jane. She held my hand and said "We gon' get through this" and she is my best friend

     

    --

     

    Joking aside, I recognize that marijuana smoke contains tar and carbon monoxide, which is why I very rarely smoke. However I make treats containing THC on a bi-weekly basis and I have 2 a day. They do not contain enough THC to inhibit my work or driving.

     

    I think everyone should have a little bit of THC every now and again.

     

    My rules are

     

    -no smoking or being high around children or guests

    -do not get couch-melting high in case of an emergency

    -only do it in my own home

     

    I cannot stand when people smoke in public, it's a major pet peeve of mine

     

    I went to Santa Monica Pier with my little brother not too long and someone was smoking weed right next to us while we were building a sand castle. No one should be forced to smell your habit.

  12. It's gotten to the point where feral cats have become disease ridden pests. FeLV and FIV are running rampant in feral cat colonies, they live lives of hunger, disease, and injury. They have litter after litter and one female can have 29 litters in 10 years and one un-neutered male can produce thousands and thousand of kittens in his lifetime. Leaving these cats to suffer and die and reek havoc on the local natural wildlife is the real cruelty here.

     

    It's sad but you can't save all of them, in my time fostering cats I've realized it's better for them to be put down than neutered and released. Releasing them keeps them from breeding but it doesn't improve their lives. They're still starving, they're still exposed to disease and parasites like ticks and fleas. They'll still fight and become injured, they'll still be hit by cars and left to die on the side of the road.
