GOOD NEWS!!! no stones!!!

he did have some kind of bacterial infection in the skin near his privates, so they gave him an antibiotic and gave me a painkiller/anti-inflammatory to give him for a few days to help with any pain

they also prescribed him an anti-anxiety, something I've been wanting to pursue for a WHILE. we're currently in the vet's lobby waiting for our ride, and he's being very calm

#AFLife #catParent #CatsOfMastodon

plus, he always knows when he's got a vet appointment. I don't know how, but he does, and he HATES the vet with a passion and is a pain about getting into his carrier, normally, but I'm still not supposed to lift 18 pounds

my girlfriend is coming over and will do the actual carrying, but he's also very scared of people who aren't me, so I'm going to have to get him in his carrier myself, which is just going to be an ordeal 😫

he did eat some treats that I pulled out bc he just wasn't responding normally to anything, and I'm going to try putting the bowl right in front of him in his little hidey spot, but 🤷🏻

he once had a urinary tract stone that was 1cm across, and was an unusual type that couldn't be dissolved with food and he had to have surgery, and he's showing some of the signs he had before (no blood in his urine, though), so I'm just super worried about him

I could tell by the way he was walking though that something was wrong. he just wasn't being himself. he peed like a couple drops. he followed me into the kitchen, but did not immediately start gobbling down his food. and he was still walking slowly/cautiously/low to the ground ...

anyway, I called the vet & they had a cancellation for later today, and he's currently hiding in the corner of the living room, silently. I think he's had like a couple nibbles of his food?

welp, I woke up and started feeding the cats and Link was nowhere to be found. I spent the whole prep time calling for him and Midna was meowing around my feet, but not in the normal "I'm hungry" way

after I set the food out, I found him under my bed out of my reach, hiding behind a box. I saw him move when I moved the box a little. I went to the bathroom and tried to not freak out, and then he came into the bathroom to use the litter box

just realized I never did an #introduction post!

hi, I'm fox 🦊 and I'm white, late
late 30s, #nonbinary, #bisexual, on the #asexual and #aromantic spectrums, #solopolyam, #jewish, #jewitch, and a #catParent.

I'm #neurodivergent with #mentalHealth stuff, including #adhd, #depression, #anxiety and probably #autism. I'm also dealing with #chronicPain.

things I'm into: #Judaism, #videogames, #boardGames, #knitting, #crocheting, #spinning, #writing, #indiePerfume, and more!

@Colin The decorations come down on the 5th Colin; you were told you were getting some turkey later today after the man has made a curry; your box is in the kitchen to make room for the Christmas stuff - it's not my fault you can't find it; you could have walked around the board game, but you chose to run through it in the most destructive way possible after staring at it for about an hour. #CatParent

Anyway I guess it is deceased pachyderm etiquette to do an #IntroPost? This will probably turn into a thread because I don't know how to be brief and to the point. 😅

I'm Inoru, I'm 34 (somehow an adult??), I'm #nonbinary of the #agender flavor, #pansexual/#demisexual swirl, #polyamorous, married to @kabrams, #CatParent (her name is Zoey, she's 3, but that's her as a baby in my pfp 🥰), #deaf, #disabled, #tourettessyndrome, #hypermobility (#hEDS probable), #autistic, #adhd, #MentallyIll, (1/6)

Yesterday, my partner and I had to make the hard decision to let my Queen go with dignity. She gave me 15 years of amazing love and will be forever missed and never forgotten. I will always love you, Evie #cat #catparent #catlife #CatsOfMastodon

The couple that Bede adopted are on holiday. He came to our door wanting to come in but his sister chased him away. Cue Hild being shut in my room and Bede being bribed with Temptations. Bede now gone but his sister is now sulking. #catparent

#PostNews looks and feels like a minimalist mixture of FB and Wordpress.

Here´s my latest post concerning #Cats and my personal #Christmas #Challenge as a #CatParent #CatsOnMastodon

I bought an advent calendar from Trader Joes for the cats. They were initially confused, but we're now at the point where they stand by the cabinet where I locked it up several times a day and meow at me. I'd say it was a hit. Bunny waits a bit to hear the perforated rip sound as I open up that day's treats. While the treats are the same thing every day but in different shapes, they don't care! #CatParent #CatTales

Hey fellow cat parents: has anyone used Pretty Litter?? Considering trying it out but not sure.

#catparent #prettylitter #cats

And here it is, an #intropost in which I list as many hashbrowns as possible! Incoming hashbrowns!

I’m pretty sure I’m on the planet to help people, and right now I’m pretty sure the greatest help to us all lies in overthrowing oppressive systems. Trying to live #antifascism, #antiracism / #AntiRacist, #bodyjustice / #antifatphobia, #AntiAbleism / #antiableist, pro #lbgtqai, #landback ideas and practices, and to engage in #interdependence through #mutualaid, #community, individual irl relationships, and #directaction . Since I am #disabled with #autoimmune bullshit (#spondy, #spondyloarthritis , and #lupus / #borderlinelupus) I am very interested in #ArtAction , #artactivism, and #musicactivism (that I can do from home.)

My background is in #finearts and I love every single #crafting / #craft / #maker activity out there. Right now I’m obsessed with #procreate and #sewing. I’m also a layperson #herbalist and #gardener.

I have learned that I am happiest as a #catparent with exactly #4cats in the house (which I currently have.)

I’m pretty sure identity is super fluid, so it feels funny putting up labels, but I am also #demisexual, #witchy, #neurodivergent, #homebody. I love #tea, #starwars, #surrealism and #dadaism, and my excellent partner. I have a high tolerance for #weird.

So there ya go.

Nothing says "trust" like a cat laying tummy-up in your lap, then stretching to expose maximum tummy. And with this one it's not even a trap, though sometimes it's a faint -- you rub the tummy and he moves his head so he's getting an ear scritch instead. 🙂
