What's Bothering You?

That is definitely behavioural; not sickness. They don't need antibiotics. Do you properly disinfect the litter tray when it's changed? If they can still smell old urine they won't want to go any further inside than they feel they have to.

Not all the time; every month we change out everything and disinfect I think. I should have mentioned they have kidney disease and get urinary infections every so often and when they have an infection they do this. It has been awhile since the last time they had one and I forgot they both do this then.

That's not nearly often enough. The kidney issues and UTIs could potentially be linked to this - cats are known to hold their waste too long if they're not happy with their litter tray.

i told my mom but I don’t think she’s convinced 😬. Thanks so much for the info. I’ll try to keep talking about it and if she won’t do anything different then do it myself; problem is that I can’t lift the bags of litter or the litter box at all. I think she thinks that what the vet said about them being old cats and kidney disease and urinary infections being normal for there age is the only truth. she did say she understood what i was saying but… 😬

I tried to tell my mom but she says we scoop it every day and it is cleaner than 90% of people’s cat’s litter and my cat is 20 years old. and she doesn’t care to spend more money. but what about my cat’s health and well being? she thinks we take good care of them. maybe my cats need to be taken away from us :/

And I suck at articulating my thoughts and trying to make a case. And I don’t think i’ve been a good mom to my cats.

I have a heavy feeling thinking about Canada's past atrocities against indigenous people. I wish my partner and I's 10 years was on a different day cause today feels tainted by Canada day.

Second complaint but much less important then the first.
I went to 3 different stores looking for a bag of ice and everywhere is sold out. I even went into walmart for ice cube trays and those were sold out too. How am I suppose to make margaritas for my bbq guests without ice? I already bought the expensive tequila and triple sec, gosh diddly darn. I got some frozen bags of peaches and strawberries instead so it'll be a frozen fruit "margarita" but really it's just an alcoholic smoothie lmao
 
i feel crazy because of my depression disorder and my parents seem to forget that i have one and take medicine for it i wish i can say more but i don't want to trigger people
 
I'm sorry this happened to you. I have had similar experiences before, and I usually have to chalk it up to that maybe the person didn't know I was trying to be friends with them or maybe they did know, but didn't know how to say that they weren't interested in being friends for whatever reason. Good news is that this community is very welcoming and kind, so hopefully that helps take away some of the hurt from that experience.
I had two good friends that ghosted me over time. We would always make plans to hang and they'd cancel at the last second and or just not even tell me and I'd be waiting around like a schmuck. It does suck when things like this happened. I grew wise after a few times. Should had been the first lol, but I can be pretty stupid.

@Vrisnem Hey, are you feeling better from the shot than yesterday?
 
I downloaded Genshin and had to delete somethings to make room; accounted locked before that for 20 minutes since it would not log me in when i finished puzzle step. Just got to first cutscene and the lag was so bad nothing was understandable the animation just stopped. so I guess I have to wait until i get my next phone or then, get rid of more things. I wish they didn’t pack the phone with all those stupid useless apps and gave us more space.

Still upset about my mom not budging when I told her what Vris said. :/

Feeling much better today but I feel still a lot of stuff weighing me down. :/

Not looking forward to moving stuff in my room. with sister and nieces coming over this weekend, got to put things somewhere even if just temporarily. i really want to find that figure’s sword :/

Not that it's bothering me, but I did cut my hand and it hurts like an SOB now. Cut it on some old jagged metal when I was working on my antique treasure chest. My clothes kept getting snagged on it, but I was just being stupid and not taking that as sign to address it. Kind of wish I did now.


If your mom doesn't want to disinfect the litter box at earlier times, would you be able to do it? Or would she be against you doing that? Not trying to be rude or anything. Just asking.

Ouch! I hope you treat that and it feels better soon.

I can ask but I’d still need her help since I can’t lift the litter box or litter on my own. i have a feeling she’ll just say I don’t need to do it.

Firecrackers again. they’ve been shooting them before the fourth is here. not looking forward to that.

Got to go grocery shopping tomorrow. Not excited about that. But at least I can go back to sleep when I get home.

I dunno, seems like I'll stay here for the whole summer due to grandma's situation-- which yeah, it happens. Not ideal, but y'know. I just... not sure if I can handle all this pent up anger and resentment...

Can't ****ing believe mom really does not remember her threatening me. Said only God knows. So I really can't get any apologies or acknowledgment. **** all this I hate it
 
I guess the stuff I've been working on in the past week was all for nothing. I had to start all over again from square one... 🙃
 
Oh, man... I am so not ready for the fourth of July. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice holiday, but the fireworks are already bad here, and fourth of July fireworks are usually 10000000x worse
I wish I lived in a quiet neighborhood where nobody threw fireworks 😡🙉
 
I've been spiralling lately. I have so much work on my plate on top of my brother being fatally ill and in need of a lot of care meaning that I am constantly travelling to help nurse him. My stress levels have gotten so high that I have started having flashbacks and night terrors again. I keep waking up in a state of complete panic and confusion, not a nice way to start a day. My dog has been helping me a lot, keeping a close eye on me, and keeping me company. Just hoping I can snap out of it.

Same! Growing up, there used to be a horse stable where the neighborhood now is. I miss that stable. I love horses and so much quieter. Also no dogs constantly barking at night. I honestly don’t care about the holiday anymore partially because of my hate for the fireworks and crackers and also for other reasons that I won’t go into detail.
 
I wish regular people couldn’t buy fireworks. I’m sure I sound like a Scrooge but I wish only proper companies could buy them and only for specific celebrations. It’s Canada day and my neighbours have been setting off fireworks and firecrackers since 8pm! It wasn’t even dark out yet! And I’m sure they’ll go for a while yet even though it’s almost 11:30. I hate them.
