#I have to bring him to the vet!“

[skylersprompts]

DC x DP Prompt *30*

If anyone would ask Bruce how he could have known, he would tell them that it is obvious. Phantom - the new part-time member of the Young Justice - who seemed to be forever young and their new engineer Danny Fenton who is in his early twenties have perfectly fitting schedules. When Fenton is working in the Watchtower, Phantom will be unavailable for the Young Justice and vice versa. Also, the pranks started after both of these figures appeared. Of course one could argue that they could just be related or somehow knew each other otherwise, but the pranks that were pulled on all of the mentors of the Young Justice were only possible with Phantom Powers. And because of the new Ghost Shield the young hero wouldn't be able to just fly into the Watchtower and had to use the Zeta-Tube, what would mean that they should be able to look at the logs. But Phantom never entered the Watchtower while the pranks were under way. And as soon as his team really needed him, Fenton would make an excuse to leave work early.

What he wouldn't tell anyone, is that he saw how Fenton had transformed himself into Phantom, shortly before the Flash got up to run for a snack, just to fall down because his ankles had been cuffed together.

And maybe he helped him from time to time, with a well timed question to distract his fellow heros. Because the motive became clear really fast. Everytime someone got pranked, that someone had done something to ignite the wrath of the younger heros.

All of that also meant two things.

First of all, as soon as Danny was at work, Batman would be extra aware of his surroundings. The pranks never worked on him, which meant he had to dodge more attempts for the rest of the day.

And secondly: He should talk to Tim, after he found out how he had put his foot in his mouth this time, since he just saw his spoon move in his coffee mug without anyone's involvement. He just let his (probably salty) coffee go cold, brooding. Maybe he should go home early today and spend some quality time with his son...

New baby!

Her name is Quimby!!

This is her 5th day with us, and these little babies just warm up to you so fast, don't they? 😭💕

I was expecting this to take much longer, but I guess she's young enough that she only needs a few good experiences to gain her trust.

She's got 3 siblings from a different clutch arriving in a week or two, as well [different parents, same breeder] --so I am hoping that observing Quimby's trust will warm them up to us just as quickly, too.

We wanted to gain a proper flock, since Wilbur lost Orville and I don't want him to be a lone budgie for much longer. Now that our work on Woven is done, we finally have the time to properly dedicate to them♡ So it seemed like the right time to do it.

They'll all have Sean's office [and free roam of it during the day while he's there working], while Milly gets to enjoy me and my office as it's sole ruler[tyrannical].

[obligatory: that's her quarantine cage, which also allows easy travel to and from the vet. She's got a whole 4 foot flight cage on the way to us that she'll be sharing with one other female (the males get their own separate flight cage because I aaaaaiiiin't breeding my birds)]

Nothing humbles you more like having to spend $200 that you don't really have so your cat could get a check-up and his vaccines he just became due for so he could visit you at medical rehab after not seeing each other two and a half weeks, only for him to not want to cuddle you the entire time despite being your cuddly little guy. I've definitely not been crying on and off for the past hour because my son hurt my feelings.

[itsmarsss]

I hope the rest of the week will be better for you.

thank you! that’s very kind :)

cw pet death, euthanasia

I did not euthanise a cat today.

"We want to make an appointment to put our cat down," the owners said on the phone. "He's 18. He was diagnosed with CNI two years ago, we didn't do much about it. He's reached the end of his life."

"He's 18," they said, when we put him on the table and gave him scritches and offered him malt paste because he seemed to lose a lot of hair, and watched him eagerly lick it off my co-worker's fingers. "He won't eat as much, and he vomited three times last night."

"He's 18," they insisted as I examined him and turned up nothing but the hair loss, beginning cataract and slight tenderness upon abdominal palpation, "we'll be away for a few weeks soon and what will we tell the caretaker if he's sick then?"

"He's 18," over and over again, their sole reason to refuse treatment offers, further diagnostics, as I watched him enjoy the attention and malt paste and thought of all those others that would have had a realistic chance at survival, reconvalescence, even, if it hadn't been taken away from them on the sole argument that they're "already old".

They changed. They have special needs. They got sick. They've become a nuisance, a burden some people didn't sign up to bear.

So they jump at the chance to get rid of them.

"It's better for them," they say. "We had some great years together. But now? Now they're old. Look at them."

I do. And they look back. They're still alive. Their problems, sometimes, are manageable. Sometimes they can be cured altogether. I discuss options, treatment plans. Outcomes.

They're old, yes, but we can make it as comfortable for them as possible, right up until the end.

"Don't you see there's nothing to be done?"

Age is not a disease. One of the tenets they drilled into our heads at uni: it might come with many diseases, and one day, likely together or due to those diseases, impact quality of life so much that you have to make a decision, but in itself, it's not a reason.

He's 18, and I refused, and they took him back home again. Angry. Arguing. Adamant there's something that needs to be done about him. And as they left, we all knew they would not stop until they got what they wanted.

I did not euthanise a cat today. And still, he's another one we couldn't save.

Just read a post about how you shouldn’t trust a doctor who rushes you and like, yes I fully understand the frustration, so here’s what you can do to stop yourself being rushed:

-ask for a double appointment

-ask for a triple appointment

-fuck it ask for an hour long appointment if you think it’ll help

-be outright about what you want/need from an appointment. If you need more time to process information, say that. If you need the doctor to write out all information, say that. If you have a complex case/long history, say that!

-list all the reasons why you want to see the doctor/vet that day and please don’t sugar coat it. “Been vomiting” is a ten minute fix. “Been vomiting after every meal for the past two years” is not. It needs a double appointment and possibly a referral too.

Doctors and vets are overworked to fuck and exploited to hell. Help us out a little, please

I can’t even sleep. I just want my baby back. and I think I’ve made myself even more sick

!! DONT SKIP !! donations urgently needed They are only at €5,561 out of €50,000 goal

I was contacted by Nader to draw pictures for and help spread his brother Abdulsalam Al-Anqar’s fundraiser to save their family. Nader is a 17 year old boy who lives in Gaza with his family: parents Ahmed (54) and mother Iman (49), brothers Abdulsalam (26), Mohammed (14), and Omar (21) and Abdulsalam’s wife and their one year old daughter Iman. Imagine it was your sibling, your friend, your son, who should be in school or with his friends, who instead has to hide from bombs and ask for help online to save his family. His family have suffered through one year of genocide. All of you are their hope to get to safety.

This fundraiser is vetted by @gazavetters, number four on the spreadsheet here

Abdulsalams daughter Iman is only one year old and has lived most her life in a war zone. She is suffering from malnutrition. It’s every fathers worst nightmare to see their child starve and not be able to feed her. Please help him feed his daughter and get her to safety. No child should grow up hearing the sound of bombs. Every child has the right to food and safety. You can help give Iman the childhood she should have, where she can sleep in a safe bed at night with a full stomach.

Their father Ahmed has cancer and needs surgery and medication. It is not possible to get the treatment he needs in Gaza. every day his illness is left untreated, the cancer will continue to spread through his body, so he very urgently needs money for treatment and travel. If you help them get to their goal, you are saving their fathers life. Don’t let this family who have already lost so much lose their father, husband, and grandfather

Nader has showed me pictures of this explosion close to them, thankfully they were able to get away. Every day they stay in Gaza their lives are at risk from israeli bombs. Every day and hour counts. I know there are compassionate and kind people who are willing to help. every euro helps, YOUR donation will bring them one moment closer to safety. With love and hope I’m asking you to give what you can, I believe in the kind people of the world and I beg you to not let them die. If you can’t donate, please share so it may reach people who can.

Never forget that palestinians are not numbers on a list of deaths. Please think of each of them, think of their names and faces and know that you can help them. I think of them every day. I think of the hopes and dreams they should achieve, I think of their education, their future, and the love they show when they work hard every day to get help. You may feel powerless to stop this genocide, but you have the power to save Abdulsalam and his family. I dream that the day will come soon where they may use their days to rest and recover from what they’ve been through, where they can share a meal and laugh and the children will play, instead of having to use their time to beg the world to listen and help them. We can make this possible.

50 000 euros is a lot of money for one person to give, but for all of us together, it can be done. Please don’t look away.
