COLD DARK ROOM

[Kristoff]

How is everyone?

Good here.
The question is, how are you?

Every day. I bet shopkeepers/cashiers at the supermarket know you as the Lettuce Lady
Does it get better in summer when weeds finally grow?

Oh yes, I hope so. Then they get a lot of fresh leafs, blossoms, dandelions and gras. But the cold weather is not right to let these yummy things grow.
Lettuce Lady ? That`s funny. I am the crazy cat lady , the lettuce lady and ....... so much more !
I know I am crazy and I like it !

Good evening roommates, today I got the result of the blood work from my cat Monty.
All parameters are well, that means, liver, kidneys and the thyroid are working well but there is another problem I had feared. The brother of Monty died with only 2 years because of this desease

I always feared and know that Monty is a carrier for this virus too and some day it might break out. It seems that the day X has come.
Losing weight is a bad sign.
Nobody can say how long Monty has to live. It makes me sad losing one cat or dog after another, but that is life, I know, but knowing makes it not easier.

Sorry to hear

As long as they don't eat the house and property.

When polished they yell ..... you know. It is not easy to polish them.

Maybe we should take them through a car wash. That way they will be squeaky clean.

 

[CarolM]

Hmm, I need 300 - 450 gr. lambs lettuce, 3 -4 belgium endive and 3 romane lettuce every day for these 8 torts.
The three bigger sulcatas eat the most of it.

Wow. But then you do have 8 torts.

Gold fishs have a good memory.... I think.

I have always been told that their memory is about 3 seconds.

Who is the shame for?

How is everyone?

We are all good. Very glad it is Friday!!!

Developments in the nest box might be problematic. A bumblebee has been checking it out at length this afternoon.

Bumblebees are protected, but this is a seriously bad location for one to nest. It’s too close to the house and I am allergic to their stings

Bad bumblebee! Go find a bee house!

As long as they don't eat the house and property.

LOL. The Sullys might try, eventually

 

[JoesMum]

And if you use smoke to put it to sleep and then kill it? Although the birds will probably not go back in there if you use smoke. Hmmmm I really hope it decides it does not like the nest box and goes somewhere else.

That's illegal. They're protected here. I can't disturb a birds nest or kill bees.

Welll, you can kill bees under special circumstances, but it's not straightforward.

 

[Maro2Bear]

Before and after..... we went from Snowman, tall and proud.... to Melting Sunman....squishing and squashed...

Check the grass...only two days ago...we had to perform some facial reconstruction....

 

[CarolM]

During the day yes it was all work. But this evening it has been doing stuff around the house. Etc. And my internet keeps on going slow.

 

[JoesMum]

Yikes. Anything within the limits of law that could make it change its mind?

I rally was stood outside batting her away with a broom when she emerged. I can only hope!

 

[JoesMum]

Noo. not killing a bumble bee ! They are protected and very friendly. I love them.
@JoesMum When you use a little bit of perfum or deo on the hole where they get in the bumblebee will not return. They can smell the perfum and stay away. I think birds don`t have a good smell. The bird will be not irritated from the smell.

That's worth noting. I'll get outside with some in the morning

But you are an alien! So you are supposed to know more than we do and or be more advanced!
