October telling November off for something. Especially after his breakdown, he is obnoxious, weaselly & difficult, which October can't stand. Losing someone dependable & having them replaced with a very different version of themselves can't be fun. Redraw from 2011
@edmsillygoose@indoor_wildling I saw it happen time & time again where I would socialize together & shy cat would not engage. Shelter would recommend adopting one (I would protest & lose) & a week later the shy cat was acting more extroverted than their companion ever had. It was almost comical sometimes.
@edmsillygoose@indoor_wildling Maybe I can make you feel a smidge bit better. I used to foster ✨️the problem✨️ cats for my shelter aka a lot of the shy ones. & while it's better they go together, separating them & socializing them alone would often help them far more than if they were together.
@SashaLigress It's a good starting place lol Ideally no one should prevent you from liking anything you like because social pressure should never be a motivator when it's a harmless like. But I find that logic doesn't often help me until I've used SPITE to get my foot in that door. Lmao
@HonkIfUrHoary We recently (finally!!) got our local stray inside. Trying to get her surgery & I'm starting to understand why people dump cats- the bar to get this accomplished has been so high. But she's inside now & will get the care she needs. We've named her Marge.
"There is a Japanese legend who talks about a method to find cats that have left the house and never come back.
The technique is to talk to the street cats in the neighborhood as if you would talk to anyone and ask them about your cat, describe it and it is, their hair tone, even tell th what it's called, ask them to help you find it, tell him how much you love him and how much you want him to come home.
They will communicate with each other to help your cat return home"

@PaulMcIcedTea Hm! This sounds exactly like a tablet I had... that I think I gave away in 2012?? I don't remember to who, someone on DA. Fun coinkydink! ....unless.... 🤔
@squad_videos Can't speak on yt, but in general creative content, there will always be 10192 reasons to not do it. Imo there should be no reason to not do a project unless your day job is the most fulfilling thing in your life. Project runs out of steam? Take a $ earning break. Then go back.
@SashaLigress Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that. Although at least they're fighting each other? I've heard of that can happen, but that's wild. I hope they keep each other at bay for a good long while and you get more time! My own senior is struggling so I know how precious that time is...
@SashaLigress You've got a lot of bucks in the October bank if I recall right. Hit me up sometime if you want anything, I'll happily try to make up for it!
