I have to cut the bum off one of ours and direct it into a tub with a 12v bilge pump (weirdly I actually already have all these parts and the battery / panel ready to go) because it turns out it goes absolutely fucking nowhere .
We’re gonna smash up that pathway and redo it anyway as it’s rooted to shit, and put in a proper line and drain then but still. Annoying.

meat exporters will bitch and moan if the deal included gold plated crappers and daily blowjobs.

You did your best and both of you still got your life together taken away. And that’s shit. It’s incredibly shit.
You’re allowed to be upset about that. You’re allowed to be angry. But don’t you ever feel guilty or regret putting up one hell of a fight.

Even if you had done everything perfectly you would still have some manufactured regrets. Our minds cling to “if i’d just” because we’re not allowed to howl at the void any more

Misha was an incredibly good momma cat, and even years after being fixed would always come investigating if anything playing had a kitten mew in it. So we’re telling ourselves we’re looking after babies for her.

oh we’ve had kittens and ginger boys before (Punkin and Cerys and their siblings were literally born in our last house), so we know what to expect. Bandaids stocked up and all breakables are being moved to floor level. The one and only time Punkin decided to check out the top of the fridge he smashed four out of a box of six imported belgian tulip glasses all over the kitchen so His Lordship has LEARNED THE LESSON

weirdly, DGAF is also a good sign. Not drinking is so habitual now you don’t even notice no mo. Proud of you, bud.

so, uh, I guess they’re officially coming home with us now. (well, thursday)
We’re renaming them to Samuel (Sammy) Frederick and Maxwell (Max) George because we are not fans of JKR, but it seems disrespectful to summarily dismiss those who saved their lives. Also we found out that they were literally due to be euthanised the same day as Misha before KRS found an emergency foster. His Lordship also never looks at pet rescue because it breaks his heart but for some reason he did the day they were listed - with Max looking uncannily like Misha (including, as we found out on visiting, a damaged tail)
The world works in weird ways.
Cerys knows something’s up as we’re doing up the dining room as a landing zone, but she’s incredibly food motivated (as is Sam) so I don’t forsee any massive problems considering they’d both sell their grandmothers for a freeze dried crocodile bite.

I went into a year long depressive state after losing Punky. We grieve.
- Comment on Discussion Thread 🐠 Saturday 21 March 2026 2 days ago:
grief and shock do that to your memory. It doesn’t last, I promise.
some lives hit so much harder when they leave your own. Two years on and I still can’t speak out loud about Punkin without crying. And for along time it felt I’d lost even the memory of him. But I got it back. And you will too. It your mind trying to protect you from harm when you’re breaking down, and doing it in a stupid, stupid way.

you can’t erase her. It’s not possible. As long as you are here, she is here, in your heart, where she can never, ever be taken away from you.

oh yeah there’s a lot of seashells you can see any given beach with predation marks. But slugs have snot and farts as defense and offence mechanisms so…

start just doing some documentation here and there. That way if they go “WHAT DO YO DO??” and you’e like “here is my work I am important person documenting processes as per good practise.”

But I have questions. So man questions. How are fights resolved? how do you know when it’s ended? What is the concept of dominance and submission in the slug world??
- Comment on Discussion Thread 🛸 Sunday 22 March 2026 3 days ago:
We knew we had three criteria:
-
boys as they really don’t get hierachical like females and just roll over and accept being the bitch
-
younger, for similar ease of introduction / hierarchy reasons
-
two to annoy each other at their energy levels instead of Cerys. So we started looking at bonded pairs.
We would have loved to adopt an older pair, but they’re all set in their ways and we’d basically just be upsetting three elderly cats for human morality.

Going to see a little pair of ginger boys today at a foster. It feels so gauche. But Cerys really isn’t doing well on her own, she’s never been a lone cat

With punkin and misha we kept it and put it in the compost to be part of the garden they loved to laze in.
I still find whispy gobs of misha’s fur. We put them in a small container and let her outside to fly in the breeze on sunny afternoons. She always demanded outside time on sunny days

Pushed through and knocked off the render removal last night after work so my pans are:
Cuppa tea.
Fuck about.
Some light faffing.
Possible garden hole digging.
