  • Thank you! I put the "cat TV" back on which he seems to love. :)

  • He seems to not mind if I play close or quickly when I am physically the one holding the toy in my hand. But when the same thing occurs on a wire or string, it seems to spook him (maybe because it looks like they are moving on their own)? He will watch at a distance with the toys on a string/wire, but doesn't interact with them much and hates when they get too close. But then occasionally randomly he will be ok with that (I think when the sting/wire toys look less "realistic" he doesn't get as uncomfortable).

    Yeah I'm gonna give him some more space and not try to play with him as much until a bit later. I'd just feel a bit bad if he is not getting enough to do! Maybe just the kitty TV, pets, and treats are the way to go for now until a bit later on!

  • Tbh I'm a bit scared to try a laser pointer with him because of all the stuff that the internet says about it causing them mental issues or something.

  • The eye drops are probably temporary and I don’t believe this would cause lasting damage to your relationship.

    One week is very quick for a cat to adjust to a new living situation, I bet he’s still getting used to things and may become even more playful and relaxed over time.

    Lol I hope so! He has been hiding from me more lately and I think it's mostly from the drops but hopefully once he's done with them he will be more chill again haha. Also he got scared when I opened the door to the back patio. I'm wondering if he is not interested in the windows and scared of outside because he didn't like living on the streets!

    Yeah I'm a bit scared to push too hard for the playing initially. I think today especially he seems overstimulated/scared (there is also a bit of rain happening outside), so I'll let him just do his own thing for the day!

  • How on earth?

  • Holy shit that is an old cat lmao

  • How many people do you have blocked?

    Jump

  • Why is no one asking why you also just block random people for no discernible reason? I don't know how to check my block list, but I don't think I have anyone blocked (but maybe there is one or two). I have a shitton of instances blocked because I don't want to see porn in my feed though. I have no qualms with users of porn commuties or letting them do what they want, but that isn't what I'm interested in or want to see.

  • What do you do when homeless folks ask for money?

    Jump

  • I legitimately don't carry cash anyway tbh. I absolutely hate cash.

  • Which bottle looks better?

    Jump

  • While I do like the pop of the left one more, will it stand up to repeated washing? Or will the pattern wear away or rub off?

    I'm more inclined to like a laser etched glass because the pattern doesn't wear away.

    Overall, I don't know that I love the look of the brown container itself, though.

  • I'm glad to be here with the rest of you old fogeys

  • I'm confused. It doesn't say you would prolong someone's life if you fail to touch them for the duration of 15 seconds. If someone is already set to die without you touching them, why is it that you touching them would save them?

  • I had generally always been the young person at my job. But we have a position open and people fresh out of school have been applying and interviewing. I'm no longer the "baby" at work. I'm fucking old. :'(

    It was really a shock to me because I never thought people in their early 20s looked all that different to me until some of them came in.

  • what does the scaled sorting option for the lemmy feed actually do?

    Can i simply bake frozen chicken or does it actually need to thaw over several hours or immersed in cold water or something?

  • Wait what? Do you not know why this is a food safety issue?

    Bacteria like to grow. Do you know what cooking does? Yep! It kills the bacteria. Here's the thing though...as the bacteria are growing before we kill them, they are all making waste products.

    Do you know what cooking does NOT destroy? Yup, bacterial waste products.

    Think of it like this. When certain bacteria grow, they make a poison as a byproduct. For our purposes, pretend the byproduct is bleach.

    What happens when you put a living being in a 200 degree oven? It dies. What happens when you put bleach in a 200 degree oven? Maybe it will turn into vapor...idk...but once it cools and recondenses, it's still going to be bleach.

    Some cases of food poisoning are due to colonization by live bacteria, but other cases of food poisoning are due to bacterial waste chemicals/byproducts, even if all of the pathogens are killed.
