  My cat recently passed away and I have a number of left over medications that I will throw out.

  But before I do, I thought I’d see if they can be of use to any of the cat lovers we have on here.

  4 x 100mg Gabapentin tabs.

  11 x 0.1ml Vetergesic in syringes for oral application.

  50 x 5mg WP Carbimazole: medicine for treating hyperthyroidism.

  1 x Profender Allwormer for 2.5 - 5kg cats.

  6 x 4mg Zofran Ondansetron wafers to treat severe nausea and vomiting.

  1mg syringe of Mirtazapine - for appetite stimulation.

  1 bottle of Otoflush.

  Pick up in Melbourne CBD.

  @mods, take down if this isn’t allowed, totally understand.

    I’m so sorry for your loss.

    Your vet may take them to donate to owners that can’t afford the meds otherwise, I know our vet does this

    Ask your vet, they will offer them to fellow pet owners in hardship. That’s what we did with Punkin’s renal food

  Hmmm. Took the dog to visit a friend. He peed on the inside coffee table then bit both of us when we went to shoo him off. Worst behaviour ever since I’ve owned him. I’m ordering a muzzle.

    He sounds anxious. My dog’s that age and he’s getting a bit funny in the head.

    source
  • SpinMeAround@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I wonder if there were any strange smells/scents that set him off? Something must have really put him off kilter!

    • SaneMartigan@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Yeah, my mate does pet portrait photography so it would’ve had some smells about the place.

  it’s not as bad as it looks, there are actually few weeds, they are just big, and the soil is sandy so it’s easy to pull them

  I’m going to make two big garden beds surrounded by paths , I’ll make the paths by laying down cardboard then putting wood pavers on top of that . Then build up the beds a little. The pots will remain around the edges.

  I can’t do lawn as I can’t get a lawn mower in there, so garden it is, and it will nice to have vegies too.

  I have an upstairs balcony for relaxing in .

    Cute yard and your ideas sound like it’ll make it even better!

    source
  • RustyRaven@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    That should come up nicely. I’d probably use wood chip mulch instead of actual pavers for the paths, then you can just keep adding more over time as they break down to refresh it. I’d also be a bit worried about pavers getting slippery.

    I think it is much better not to have a lawn for most purposes, it is a lot of upkeep for an area most people don’t actually use. Garden beds with ground covers or native grasses generally look great, are less maintenance and if done right provide great habitat for birds and small animals.

    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      woodchip sounds like a good idea , yeah, pavers might get slippery as the garden is watered

  I’ve decided to pull the trigger and get a wireless numpad. I got this 75% keyboard and whilst it has been great, I like having the numbers in a tidy square too much.

  I think a detached numpad is the way to go because they stick out the side of your keyboard and you don’t need them until you really need them. Wireless lets you put it away when not in use and you can put it on either side of the keyboard as well. As a lefty I’ve wished for a left side numpad for a long time.

  I think I’ll get the 8bitdo one as it has a screen and can work as an independent calculator as well. Great for not needing to add a calculator window to your screens on top of everything else.

  • Taleya@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    8bitdo is a solid choice, love their shit

  My DiDi driver is playing a very strange chant-type song in a different language, something I might hear in a yoga class, and I think it’s just the same song on repeat. This is not the Friday night party starter I wanted, getting put to sleep.

  It’s a good sign if your resume is getting viewed a lot in an hour? I’m paranoid that because my probation was terminated that I’d be blacklisted somehow.

  • tombruzzo@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I think it’s good but whether anything comes of it is a separate issue. And unless people from your old place talk to others there’s no way for anyone to know. It’s almost surprising what you can still get away with in the working world by either just omitting things or having someone to back you up.

    source

  I had an autopilot failure on the way home. Went straight when I normally turn and suddenly realised I was at an intersection I’d never seen before. My sense of direction was still good though as I turned the right way, but it was a bit disorienting.

    I was moving house (couch surfing really) so much at one stage in my life that I got on the wrong tram and only realised when I got off at my old stop and went, “oh yeah, I moved out of there” 😆

  Good news. I found videos demonstrating wet on wet with acrylic. Bad news. The guy was basically doing much the same as I did with similar results.

  The kodi refinement moves ever-onwards.

  Now His Lordship has a whole widget and playlist just of “New Episodes” because more than one entry in “contine watching for poonhandler mcgee” was apparently doing his head in.

  Reminds me, i need to set a new nick…

      We have a pc permanently slaved to the tv, and since the ADHD diagnosis His Lordship is being a lot more open about his hardships. Finding files on the fileserver? Headfuck. So i built a netflix-like kodi interface and he’s taken to it like a duck to water. I keep refining it to make life easier for him.

      The user profile name is currently “Poonhandler McGee”, i need to put a new one in. Shaggins Fartwaffle? Purseslapper Jones? Peter Gangbiscuit?
