Didn’t ask

Such a wild response lol

You commented on a forum. People reply. That’s… what happens here. The replies are for everyone on the thread, not just you. That’s why it was a comment reply and not a DM.

And like, look at where you are, this is an ADHD community. And someone provided relevant information in response to your comment. Of course someone is going to latch on to some small piece and infodump in response, it’s the ADHD community

Rory’s perfect polite paw tuck 🥺

Okay wait this one is hilarious 😂 I’m so sorry. Did you have to get unready and run all the way back?

What a good boy 🥺 I hope he gets treats for protecting you from the thunder so well

It’s the same with calico cats as well from what I understand, almost all are female.

Yep, to get calico coloring, cats must have two X chromosomes, so they will be female. If a male calico is born, it will be XXY. So that’s a rare mutation to encounter, and those cats are always sterile too, so they’re not passing along their mutation to any kittens either.

Ooooh yeah it is a dog. I thought they weren’t including the cat who is on the bed but not cuddling 😂

For my in-office keyboard I have Gazzew Boba U4 silent tactile switches. I’m very happy with them. I saw some advice that said not to lube them, which I gladly took to save myself the effort lol. I’ve been using them at work for 2.5 years now. And my coworker who (politely) complained about my keyboard being too loud before has not complained about this one 🙂

I use them on a Keychron K-series keyboard that originally came with brown switches. I did also upgrade the stabilizers on this one, my space bar was too loud.

I will say that I prefer my Keychron Q5 that I have at home. It was more expensive than the K-series, but it has better build quality. I haven’t had to do any mods (the stabilizers it shipped with haven’t bothered me) and I prefer the metal body of the keyboard.

Never see the hawks target them either, they fight back and mob predators.

Ooh cool! So just the other day, my husband saw a hawk grab a grey squirrel. And a squirrel buddy came over and attacked the hawk and rescued the first squirrel!! We’ve never seen or heard of anything like that before. These were grey squirrels.

Maybe squirrels are a lot more roughty toughty than I’ve been giving them credit for! 😁

Well I’m not sure about that, but that’s a good point…

Polar bears have translucent hair that looks white, and black skin. Looks like black squirrels have black skin. So maybe it depends if this white squirrel still has black skin underneath 🤷‍♀️ I’m going to tell myself that the lil guy will be fine because that’s a happier ending 😅

Hey, you/your sister should submit a report of this squirrel spotting!

https://untamedscience.com/biodiversity/white-squirrel/

There’s an effort to map where white squirrels are showing up in North America. We did some research after seeing one in our neighborhood a few years back - like this one, ours wasn’t albino, which you can differentiate because squirrels with albinism have red eyes.

Edit: this lil guy is probably better off in the snow than otherwise, better camouflage! 😍

American born to English ex-pats here. We also left out beer for Santa - and carrots for the reindeer.

We left cookies out too, I’ll have to ask if the cookies (and maybe the carrots too) were just put back in the box/fridge, or what actually got eaten.

Edit: my dad says the beer and cookies were definitely eaten but “neither of those pair well with carrots” so apparently they just went back in the fridge. I’m not sure why my brother and I bothered with the carrots then 😂

Yeah I was recently cat sitting for friends who have two normal litter boxes and two Litter Robots. The Litter Robots weren’t functioning correctly and they didn’t know why yet so they were basically just normal litter boxes at the time, but gigantic lol.

Anyway I wasn’t very impressed if both their very expensive automated litter boxes weren’t working.

So I haven’t been left with a great impression of Litter Robot’s reliability.

Gotta tuck the snoot

Def bring it up with the vet. When my cat started going outside of the box, it was because she had a nasty kidney infection.

Edit: also “randomly when I step away,” do you mean if you’re travelling? She might be stressed because she misses you and she’s lonely.

Our cat doesn’t respond to catnip but she does respond to silvervine!

I don’t think it’s the classic catnip response (which I assume is because of her genes) but she gets more playful and her pupils enlarge… for a few minutes and then she just wants to take a nap 😂

And from me please give her a lil forehead scritch, thanks

Yeah I’ve been seeing this for a few months now.

My workaround is to upvote threads I’ve read, since it’s doing a better job of remembering what I’ve voted on.

Scoutabout and Scootums are both VERY good, we might have to start using those! 😁
