This post is on behalf of my kitten Rodney.

My master bathroom has a separate tub and shower. I’ve seen him walking and standing on the top frame of the shower stall before. I was concerned about it but he never had any problems.

Today when I got home, he wasn’t sitting on the steps waiting for me when I came in the door from my garage. After checking a couple other places he’s managed to get trapped before, I went into the bathroom, and there he was, sitting in the shower stall.

I have no idea how long he was stuck in there today, but it could have been as much as 11 hours. I doubt it was that long since he didn’t run right to his food or water dishes, and there weren’t any droppings in there, but it must have been tough for him.

Yuck! I’m so sorry to hear that, Tapioca. :frowning:

I had my regular follow up with my endocrinologist today. I’ve started working out again over the past five weeks and I expected my Hemoglobin A1/c to have gone down. Instead, it went UP. I couldn’t believe it, especially since my doctor’s been pushing me pretty hard to take better care of myself and I was feeling pretty proud of myself.

On the plus side, I haven’t let it get to me. Instead, I’m considering it a reason to keep going so that the NEXT appointment kicks some (sorryBarb).

I imagine Rodney is sticking pretty close to you right now. :slight_smile: Glad he was O.K.

#4191

Yeah, he has been. Probably going to be more upset than usual when I shut my bedroom door with him outside tonight. I just have too much trouble sleeping when he’s in the room with me (mostly because he still thinks my feet are toys).

It’s making trying to resolve my computer problems a pain too. :frowning:

I’m glad he’s fine. But really. Eleven hours in the shower?

Kind of sounds like heaven. :smiley:

today I had to put down my dog who I’ve had since March of 1994 :frowning:

for perspective, I got her a month before my 5th birthday, I’m now 21 and a half

what makes it even worse is my other dog who’s two years behind her keeps giving me the ‘wheres my friend’ look and its eating me up inside :frowning:

#4194

Sorry for the loss of your friend. :frowning: Doing the right thing for a pet is a really hard thing to decide and get through, I been where you are. Hang in there.

#4195

Ouch. I know what you’re going through, but it never gets any easier. In a few weeks, I’ll be headed up to my parents’ house for the first time since one of our family’s cats (the first one I really considered “mine”) died.

#4196

I know it doesn’t make it any easier, but that’s a pretty good run for a dog. We have a cat who is close to that and we watch her intently, knowing she’s not going to be with us much longer.

OTOH, if you get, say, a parrot when you’re an adult they can easily outlive you. I’m not sure which is worse.

I’m slowly starting to accept it, I could see this coming a while off but she didn’t really start going downhill until the past couple weeks when she started losing weight extremely fast and refusing to eat, so at least I wasn’t blindsided by it entirely

my other dog at least seems to be loving the tons and tons of extra attention he’s getting now though

After spending the afternoon with me, my nephew had to go home. :frowning: Mom said he cried himself to sleep in the car. Glad to know I wasn’t the only one crying.

#4199

I feel the same when I can’t play with mine anymore, stoopid parents taking MY nephews and Nieces with them when I’M the one that wants to spend more time playing with lego and stuff :mad:

My bitch and moan is that one of my implants seems to have broken it’s seal, according to my Doctor there was a faulty batch, and now I’ve gotta pay mad money to get it fixed :frowning: STUPID GENETICS!

#4200

Well - the ones that are potty trained anyway. :smiley:

Too bad you can’t just transplant boobies - I’d gladly give away 1/2 of mine!

#4201

hee, weirdly that’s the most common thing other Women say when I talk about my surgeries, boobs, hip and ass transplants :o

#4202

Do I loose all of my Geek Cred if I decided to hate lasers today?

#4203

Ummmm…no.

#4204

485 for truck repairs today, 360 3 weeks ago too, that dang thing better run perfect for a long time now!!!

#4205

I’m not going to be able to attend the NYC meetup in October or any other NYC meetups for the foreseeable future. :frowning: But I have a really good excuse (see the “cool craaap” thread).

#4206

Yeah…That didn’t make much sense:confused:. Just having a bad day and thought it was ironically caused by a laser. :mad:
