oh my god I need to order food for Sammy asap but my bank account is VERY sad. Can the month be over already. So much anxiety 😵🥵

#random stuff #sam the papillon #I had to increase his portions because he was getting to thin #no idea how to keep that up in the long run 😖#wet food is SO expensive #and while this isn't even the most expensive stuff #I can't just feed him trash because he's pretty sensitive about food orz #ideally he should be getting raw but I can't do that for several reasons 💔#not fun #once all the positions have been booked I'll have less than 50€ left ahahaha #and once I've paid my part for the house it's only 15€ 🙈#I guess no groceries for me next week 😂#this is scary as hell lol #technically I also need to buy food for Bats but I hope what I've got left lasts until I get my benefits #also cat litter #that one will be a stretch to last for the entire next week but nothing to be done at this point #thankfully Pukki is relatively resilient when it comes to her litter box 😅

eat your fucking pellets OR ELSE

#personali posti #this is about my birds this is me talking to my bastard shit birds #they dont eat their pellets so what i would do was pick up one by one all the pellet leftovers from their food waste (they are on the mix)#and then i would crush them and make them into wet food #but i was too fucking tired to fish out all the atupid pellets from empty shells so i bought a bag of just pellets #very expensive pellets cause i care about their ficking bitch ass stupid shit nutrients intake #i gave them some untouched to see if they wajna try them dry #which they wont lol but i can try #eat your fucking pellets bitch damn!!!

New cat just dropped

His name is Wyllt

#mine #he is 15 and i love him #he had some trouble with the litter box first two days #but turns out #he just didn't like the litter I got #so now he's chillin #he is declawed :(#he is missing a precious toe bean too #so not only is he declawed but i think they messes up on one of his fingies #any tips for declawed cats are very welcom #gonna probably put him on joint supplements at some point #he can eat solid food but he has a clear preference for puree #like even opposed to chunky wet food #so i might get a mini blender #so i have more optionf for him #bc cat purees are expensive as hellll #but i can just puree wet food myself #and the ingredients would probably be better anyway

"hi! i need some flea meds for my crew."

"let me go ahead and pull up your account. we have boxcar-11 lbs. corkscrew-8 lbs. and burt....omg! 26 lbs?!"

#idk why he's so fat #he eats normally #he doesn't get wet food or crunchy treats #the vet said to get low carb wet food for him #and it would cause him to eat less kibble #but fuck is that shit expensive #i want my boy to be healthy #and yeah yeah “don't get a pet if you can't afford them”#but 6 years ago he was a little tiny kitten who could fit in my hand #this whole tank thing was a surprise

seven doesnt know yet but for medical reasons shes been upgraded to the wet cat food once a day premium experience

#ooc;; out of magic #she's lucky i adore her stupid ass bc wet food is ridiculously expensive even when bought in bulk and now she gets one (mini) can a day #for the rest of her life (2-5 years) bc vet wants her on a supplement and the only form i can find is powder #and the only way she'll touch it is if i mix it into the wet food #but i love she so i'm shellin out for wet food #until now wet food was a special treat she only got on rare ocassions

Thought I traumatized my cat tonight but after she ran and hid for a while, she came back out (probably so I could see her coughing fit? lol) within idk… 15 minutes. And was fully back to trusting me. Despite the horrid medication I just made her borderline aspirate on.

This medication regime has stopped going well. But I have an idea to try. I wonder if it was the food going off that made her less and less interested in what had initially been super exciting. The tetrapak has been open for 7 days now and it might be it starting to spoil that has made her so resistant/torn about whether or not to eat it.

#I feel horribleeeeee #last night it took her hours to eat #she doesn’t have to. she’s not hungry/has access to kibble so it’s not being forced #the kangaroo food is just a ~treat~ for covering up the medication #it’s expensive as all fuck so I’m going to freeze it in small portions so that it’s not sitting in the fridge so long #I couldn’t believe she was trusting of me so quickly #I upset her earlier trying to pill her. she’s always taken that fine. idk why that didn’t go well #it’s crazy how much she trusts me and how willing she was to come back around and let me pick her up and hold her after the transgressions #to be clear I’m both pilling her and hiding liquid in wet food at the moment and it’s the worst #personal

the videos on tiktok where people feed their cats those fancy wet foods with the quail eggs and the probiotics and the pumpkin powder and the little dried fish and the bone broth and the dried blood powders are so addicting. like dude why does this cat eat better than i do

#i want to get to a point where my cat has an elaborate meal like that #right now he just gets kibble and wet food :( we try to keep him hydrated though #we put a little water in his food which he loves but i wanna get him some bone broth soon #we used to buy him the small packs of tiki cat broth but it got real expensive real quick so we just use water now #he still likes it! i just wanna spoil him #i keep telling my bf i want us to get quails just for their eggs so we can feed them to monkey ehehe #quails are so cute too! and i hear their eggs are good #we eat so many eggs in our diet so it would help a lot to not have to buy eggs all the time #we typically have 2-3 cartons for the week 😭#I JUST WANT TO SPOIL MY CAT SO MUCH. i dont want children so this is like spoiling my child to me

Misako ate all the food I gave her for dinner 🥹

#after a few weeks of her barely eating #thank god #she seems to LOVE the royal canin food #and the hills science food #she just. kept going back for her wet food #so i think it was a combination of the bowl and the food #cause shes got a shallower bowl now #that made her eat more but still not much #so i forked out the money to get some of that fancy food #rather than the ones from the supermarket #idc really if its expensive... i can afford it #at least for now #kittysako

Good news: i'm home safely

Bad news: my luggage is not.

Further bad news: I hate living here.

Fuck sake, I ran out of tags. Second half of the tags is here. First is in the actual tags.

Navi's food has his anxiety meds in it. Tael doesn't need them. And Navi needs the full dose. But fuck that I guess.

And they started relying on a weird system that alerts them when an animal goes out the doggy door at night. so they can yell at the cat if that's who went out. Except if they've already fuckinh run away to be eaten by coyotes or hit by a car. Or ignore it bc they're fucking asleep.

And then when i'm upset at them for fucking up, they tell me i'm being ungrateful and that the cats are fine.

They just couldn't be bothered to take an extra few minutes out of their day to do what I asked in the way it needed to be done.

Just. I've been home 17 hours and I already feel like shit and hate living here.

I'm so fucking tired.

#my parents have stopped getting the regular cat food for the one cag #*cat #and have been giving them both the kidney health wet food #and bc they don't like having cat food in the fridge they give each cat half a can #which they shouldn't have bc it's 33% more than their recommended intake #and effectively made cans that should have lasted four days just one #i pay for the soecialty cat food bc it's expensive as hell #and they fucking quartered the lengtv of time it lasts #abd fuckung changed the cat littwr in my room from pine to clay #which they know makes it hard for me to breathe #not to mention i now have bits of litter all over my room #and on my bed and perpetually on my feey #did i mention the litter is in my fuckinh bedroom?#so i'm the one who has to deal with it #and my mom turned their water foybtain back on despite me explaining that i turned it off bc it was disgusting and needed to be cleaned #and bc she def wouldn'y keep up w it #esp bc i covered the fill line to block the light so i cojld sleep #she didn't fucking clesn it snd when i got vome it was way too low snd i'm worried for the motor #it's so gross and it's struggling bc it needs a new filter and to be cleanex #and she clesrly locked navi in my room alone after telling her multiple times not to #and explainubg thst he woulf break mt door #and i know she did bc she got me a new shoe organiser for the back of my door #and mine was just fine when i left #and my parents started giving the cats treats when they feed the dog in the evenings #WHICH ISN'T A PART OF THE CALCULATIONS FOR HOW MUCH FOOD THEY NEED #and ALSO that means Tael doesn't want to eat at dinner time #but navi does #so navi eats both foods #and may or may not leave any for taek #and tael lukely eats navi's food

I'm scared of the pet store because I feel like they're gonna see thru me, I feel like an IMPOSTER pet parent. Like idk what im doing. I do like...research and make sure he's getting good food and shit but still idk I get scared they're gonna start recognizing me🧍🏼‍♂️I've been in there every weekend the past 3 weeks with the same ppl working so sjfjfhshdkgjakf entirely possible. But this is also part of my Coming Into Myself work. I'm like. Embarrassed to be Me at the pet store. I don't need to be

#got him his wet food!!#and litter cos I ordered a bigger litter box thats waiting at my parents now #my mom picked up a cheap one from walmart when i took him in on impulse and its kinda small #especially for my big boy #and he seems uncomfortable/anxious w it so i hope this helps..#i also have GOT to get him a cat tree #my apartment is tiny :-(#over time i hope i can get him more things to jump n climb on yk #god he's expensive. but idc i love him

Okay quite honestly if the temperature doesn’t go down I’m gonna [redacted]

#my whole body physically feels GREASY. it’s DISGUSTING #and i’m CLEAN i showered THIS MORNING #it doesn’t matter though. i literally sweat every time i move #it’s partly side effects from meds but it’s partly just hot and humid #i desperately need to wash my hair but i feel like there’s no point?? it takes my hair like 6 hours to air dry #plus i sweat from my head so like it’s actually just not going to stop being drenched at any point really #day 1 after washing my hair it is wet from water. day 2 it is wet from sweat. day 3+ it is wet from grease #we’re on day 3 and i look like a zombie #i’m exhausted. feel like i can’t drink water fast enough. can’t sleep #at night i lie awake trying to plan low budget trips out of here. and then i remember i can’t even justify the expense of weed #i’m bloated from eating too much chinese food earlier. i took a nap this afternoon because i felt so lousy #you guys don’t know me that well so you don’t know how concerning it is that i took a nap #see i usually can’t fall asleep in the day. no matter what. before 10pm i cannot sleep #i take maybe half a dozen naps in a calendar year. i rest my eyes plenty but i very very rarely fell asleep #today though? i put my cooling sleep mask on; laid down on the couch and passed out at 2 in the afternoon #woke up thinking i’d gone blind. i think that was my first nap of the year #so it’s safe to say one more day of 27 celsius and 80% humidity might well finish me off. thanks #personal

my cat wyvern is such a picky eater and he slowly grazes throughout the day, and my other cat happy will eat herself sick and scarfs anything down. balancing these two is impossible.

#happy has a slow feeder but she will try to steal wyvern's food #and wyvern only really likes dry food i CANNOT for the life of me get him to eat wet food #unless it's that ridiculously expensive raw wet food i tried for 2 weeks bc i got it cheap #he LOVED that #i just recently got tiki cat protein kibble and he seems to really like that he will eat more of it at once than usual #i keep trying to introduce some freeze dried kibble or even chicken/beef stock into his meals or blood sprinkles but he doesn't budge #happy however LOVES it #i also grew up a very picky eater so i sympathize but man I understand now why my dad was always so frustratee by me

On one hand im glad I dont start work until Tuesday cuz it gives me one more day to mentally prepare

But on the other hand the anticipation anxiety is killing me. I can't stop grinding my teeth. I keep having to resist the urge to bite my hands. I cant focus on anything for more than a few minutes

Ik ill calm down once it starts and I see the environment ill be working in and start training and everything. And I know HOW my routine is gonna change as far as when im gonna have to get up and when ill get to come home. But its still a change.

A very large change cuz im gonna have to get up at 6am which is not a time ive ever purposely woken up except for one time for choir in 8th grade and the next time I was supposed to I purposely lied and said we weren't gonna have a spring concert so I wouldn't have to go to it

I just keep reminding myself that I need money so I can get a dog. Having money to live is not enough motivation for me. A dog is tho. That is the goal. I want a puppy. I am going to get a puppy. But I have to do this so I can get money to get a puppy. Im just gonna repeat that to myself every time I start feeling anxious.

#my only expense my mom wants me to take over is my insurance #but since im full time ill qualify for insurance through my job #so if its close enough to my current insurance (which is pretty good) ill switch to that instead #cuz my current plan is like. 300 a month #which ill be making probably a little under 2000 a month after taxes #man having the same hours every week is gonna be nice #like yeah it sucks that its full time and i have to get up early #but the unsteadiness of subway really stressed me out #and my paycheck every week varied so much #one week itd be $200 and the next itd be like. $50.#which wasnt a huge deal cuz my mom wasnt making me pay for anything so i was just using it for gas and snacks and video games #but id kinda like to maybe pay my mom some rent #shes not gonna make me do that but i would like to #that way we can maybe move somewhere....thats not possibly falling apart around us #its not quite that bad yet #but like. this place is not up to code #and nobody around here has the money to fix these buildings #even if i take over harleys expenses again...shes pretty cheap. and my mom would help in an emergency situation #she only goes through a 7 pound bag of food about every 2-3 months. and her food is about $30. her flea meds are only about $30 for 6 months #and she only needs it for about 6 months of the year anyway #her yearly check up is generally under $100 #i only need to buy her wet food once every 12 weeks cuz she only gets a can once a week #which is under $30 #litter is really the only thing i have to buy monthly for her #i might slowly start buying some puppy supplies

really so grateful that Enzos wet food has been such a hit with him. He needs naught more than a few scoops of it mixed with his kibble to get him happy and eager to eat. He's been even asking me for meals!! he went from a dog that was so distressed about eating he'd skip meals or turn his nose up at food daily to a dog that gobbles up dinner and breakfast,in fact so fast one morning it made him throw up.... he doesn't eat around his kibble anymore and he will even eat a before bed snack of kibble too. yay.

#gab gabs #getting him to eat kibble before was such a nightmare #so im happy #even though its expensive #i can at least ration it and make a can of wet food last about 2.5 to 3 days #next time ill ask my Store if they can buy it for me so i can get my employee discount lmao
