<3 Hopefully, you can make this an awesome getting to know "me" kinda time and get something great out of it. Otherwise, if I was closer: icecream, beer, movies... and whatever you want.
(To explain, when I was last in your situation, I went for a ton of hikes and backpacking trips, just me and my dog, and even though it was a rough time in the moment, I look back on that time with such fondness.)
Vacation is over and heading back to reality... I can no longer keep my head under a rock in regards to the many horrible things happening all over the place
I recently went through a similar situation. If you want to talk, I'm happy to listen, and I'll only offer my opinion if you want it.
Wow I'm sorry that's a tough way to start
side note, I think some people just need to fill the after euthanasia pause with anything because I recently had someone say oh sweetie you did a good job when I expressed my condolences afterwards. I was like uh thanks...

Sorry to hear that.One of my little foster kittens died tonight. Everyone was totally fine in the early evening, then I went to the store and did some cleaning, and when I upstairs a few hours later one kitten was lying apart from the others. It was very limp and almost dead. His nose had clear discharge and both eyes were stuck shut.
Last night he had one eye closed but I didn't think much of it. They only just started opening their eyes a little bit ago, and a friend who's fostering a different litter said that her kittens have been taking turns getting goopy eyes. Every so often a different one will have an eye stuck shut. So I thought it was sort of normal, cleaned him up, checked all the others, and everyone seemed okay.
Tonight two others have goopy eyes. I gave them all a dose of the antibiotics that one kitten is on (for an unrelated issue) and I'll talk to the vet tomorrow. I'm going to see if she'll do a necropsy, or see how much it would cost to send him to the vet school. I want to make sure the others will be all right.
Dead kittens are so sad.
Sounds like your kitten may have had a URI - we get them a lot at our shelter and they're no fun. Hope the vet helps you out with the rest of the kittens you're fostering.
I am so sad and angry on your behalf. Sangry - mostly angry. Hug hug hug hug.
Srsly. So sorry PBCDead kittens are so sad.
5AM is my usual wake up time, when I'm not on nights and I'm going to be up all day, so I find it hard to go back to bed after getting up then. I have a rather strict internal clock. I'm the kind of person that can plan to have a 30 minute nap and actually wake up after 30 minutes without using an alarm. These schedule changes really mess with my head. On the positive side, I'm done with nights after Sunday. Really looking forward to that.
How's your pup doing?? Any better?
Aw, sorry AG. Hope your girl is doing better today!!! Any more seizures?
But night shift is rough, for sure. all you can do is enjoy the peace and try not to dwell too much on the loneliness :/
A little bit, we managed to get in to see someone and decided she just had a nasty hot spot (how, I have no idea) and shaved, cleaned, and sent home with antibiotics and an e-collar. She's less itchy now, but smells like a nasty skin infection
Trying to keep it as clean as I can. Thank you for asking.
and my ears are still ringing.
Poor kittiesThe fire alarm at work was set off THREE times today. The first two times only for 2-3 minutes each time. The last time it was nearly 10 minutes before the fire department came and turned it off. We're in a complex with 4 other businesses, so either the restaurant set it off or the people remodeling the unit next door messed with the wires accidentally (if it's set off in one unit it goes off in them all).
Our poor clinic kitties and the boarders were terrified
Hopefully if it was the construction people it doesn't happen again tomorrow :/
. Evil fire alarms
Would you mind PMing me more details??? I'll keep my fingers crossed for your bae
Sure thing, I think I said pretty much everything in various posts between this thread and the pets thread though. Might be hard to find because I post so much so I'll type it all up when I get to my computer. And thanksWould you mind PMing me more details??? I'll keep my fingers crossed for your bae
I am fascinated by neuro. And if you wouldn't mind compiling it, I'd love that. Thanks!Sure thing, I think I said pretty much everything in various posts between this thread and the pets thread though.

Rut roh. Take care. Emergen-C, sleep, fluids, be kind to yourself!!!! Eat healthily
It's a ploy by all electric companies. I swear...
We got a signal extender and it's really helpful and super easy to set up. If the connection is fine closer to the router, then I'd definitely get an extender.
