Thre are... many things i'm stressed out about. but pretty high up there is this one

because me and the systematic failings meaning we're facing homelessness? awful! the cats have to suffer because of it? ABSOLUTELY NOT

I'm sorry hon, I hope that helps some

wafflicious: it absolutely does, 95 was the basic charge so at least we can get him in to get poked at.

He's currently thinking that kitten food is "treats" and so he's going HOLY SHIT? AN ANTIRE BAG OF TREATS? FOR SIMBAS?! and frankly i'm not gonna correct him by putting it in his feeder

we have 4 water stations in the house, and 5 feeding stations... 4 of them are because he won't pick one spot and eat, and one for eevee, who doesn't care.

so there's like all these tiny places with different sorts of feeding dishes and tiny bits of kibble in them

(he's chosen... my windowsill but only when it's open and i'm cold and have to hear cronching sounds. never let it be said i don't love my boy)

AN UPDATE. THE BOY (tm) went to the vet. he has.... anxiety. like they want bloodwork and to do dental cleaning in the future, and we couldn't afford that, but it wasn't brought up as a direct need.

a physical check didn't show signs of what we were fearing, and he hadn't really lost weight on the rest of him, just he's had butt-muscle atrophy due to us engaging in less play and more... um. being both depressed and trying to talk to charities to save our bacon.

they gave him two forms of gavepentin, said it was better safe than sorry, and charged us only 150$. that's so close to the fundraiser that it seems greedy to try and fundraise more.
