This is a place to chill and talk about anything besides the MCAT. 😎

thank you for the explaination. Quite frankly this s the first time i've heard it being used in that context

Sorry I didn't mean to freak you out!

I was secretly laughing at my computer when all those young'ns were talking about being in primary school in '95. I was a sophomore in college this time in 95, just behind jlw, Q and Molly.

That was a bad year for me, too, so I shall not speak of it again.

:laugh: I like how we just strike bad years.

Can I strike this current year before it is finished? 🙄 😉
 
yeah, I'm hitting the hay, too.

I haven't slept much in the past few days + heat and alcohol.

The power's been on for a few hours now so the house is nice and cool to sleep in!

Nighty-night-night-night.

Mushy's not been around - she must have *really* missed Hern! (wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more!)

In my case I don't remember much of it. I was myxedemic for half the year (freshman part) and getting radiation/chemo for the other part (continuing on into sophomore year). It sucked @ss.

Whoa. Yeah, that definitely sounds like it sucked @ss.

Well, JLW's post-whoredom seems to be finished for the moment, so I am going to take advantage of the lull in the action to hit the sack.

Have a great night all! 😍

😡 Cat peed on the freakin couch again! What the hell? I don't want to be one of those weird people whose house smells like cat urine. Why oh why is she not using her pan like a good little kitty? 😡

She's trying to tell you something.

How long have you had the cat? Is there only one? Do you have a big house/apt? Two litterboxes might be in order. Also have you changed anything lately?

this is why I don't do the cat thing

well part of the reason. sneaky little bastards.
 
I might try two litter boxes. They usually say that cats like to have their own space. If she's not feeling well maybe its agitating her. Also have you moved where they eat?

I'm sorry she's causing such a mess 🙁 Maybe the stress of the vet is getting to her ... eating at her leg is (I'm assuming) a derm problem or a mite of some kind. Unless she's crazy like one of my parents cats.

I might try a litterbox near where she is peeing for a few days. See if that helps at all. It might suck having a litter box in there but its better than cat pee. i know petsmart has enclosed pet litter pans for about $20. I just got one for my cats!!

Yeah, we have one of those enclosed ones. WHat if the other cat starts using the litter box we got for her? Wouldn't that defeat the point? How would I keep him out of it?

That is the big diff between cats and dogs. Dogs seek your approval, cats could care less as long as they have their food bowl filled everyday and have a place to retreat from the heat.

No its not "keeping" one out, its having less stuff int he litter box. You could also clean out the litter boxes more often. I odn't know if you clean it more than twice a day ...
