The evil little girl has run into some fin rot issues :(

I feel bad because she has some natural red coloration to her fins, and that in combination with her high activity levels made me think that maybe she just got snagged on a rock while hunting shrimp or something, instead of realizing that the new red streaks and the more distributed pattern of fin damage meant she had an infection.

That said, she's still acting healthy, and I ordered some antibiotics for her that should arrive tomorrow. I did thankfully already do a water change yesterday, so the water itself should be nice and clean.

We're both sick right now, girlie...

Kilgore gave us quite a scare - he had to have a week-long stay in the hospital due to undiagnosed asthma and subsequent pneumonia. He's back home now and recovering well. We have some photos under the read more because he's sick and there's a few hospital shots, but rest assured he's doing a lot better now:

He had some breathing issues off and on the past two months. The vet couldn't find anything on xrays, ultrasounds, or a blood test. Pain meds cleared up the problem every time, so we figured it was pain. However after the third time with worse symptoms we took him into the emergency vet.

He was in bad shape so tests progressed from least to most invasive. After a few days of testing and cultures it was determined to be pneumonia caused by an underlying asthma problem. Asthma in cats is quite rare, and pneumonia is also quite rare. If your cat has mysterious respiratory issues, ask your vet if you can get a tracheal wash test to determine the issue sooner rather than later! It may be expensive and invasive but it's what finally determined the culprit.

He turned the corner and started getting better on Thursday. Antibiotics and steroids finally started clearing his lungs and he was back on solid food after days on IV. He started charming the vet techs as well, so we knew our little baby was getting better.

He's back home with a feeding tube mostly for meds, as he's having no issues with solid foods but he's quite the fussy cat when it comes to meds. A few spots shaved bare from tubes and xrays, but they'll grow back. His sister Zouzou is a little bitter that she has to share the space again but she'll get over it.

It was a tough week but we're so happy to have him back home.

My cat's kidney failure has progressed a lot faster than we thought possible. Two months ago they said mild to moderate, but with dietary changes he should be okay. Today they gave us his latest lab results and said he is looking very sick.

They said toxins are building up in his body, because his kidneys aren't filtering them out like they should be. The rate at which they build up can vary, which makes can kidney disease unpredictable. He's nauseous, less interested in eating, and dehydrated.

No matter what happens I am so grateful for the time we've had with him, but I am torn apart by the thought of him suffering. I'm scared. I want to drop everything I'm doing and hold him and give him all the love in my heart.

What’s your thoughts on writing something where Isaac gifts hector some kittens/puppies or some other animal. Hectors love of animals was such a big part of his personality and I hardly see it touched in most fics.

You don’t have too, I’m just a sucker for some cute domestic fluff, and hector being a loving pet parent lol x

Aww, this one was a fun little prompt! I enjoyed this one, opting to go for a little sick kitten for Hector to save.

And I can proudly said: Through this story I finally found out, how baby animals were bottle fed before the invention of the gummy teat, because the kind of historical bottles for human kids do not work for all sorts of animals.

But I finally found it out.

So, yeah, have fun with Hector, Isaac and the little kitten.

It is just one thing after another today. I took a nap and woke up to my cat with Tourette's having another episode. I dunno when I'll be back on, it's a little dependent on how Tree is doing. Having him under the blanket helps, it makes him feel more secure. Most likely this will pass soon.

I am very tired so this is bad but. Gingerbrave with prey animal symbolism is very potent actually and we should use it more

#This is mainly about the witch/kitchen thingy #And I combined that “made to be eaten” thing with how in the og ovenbreak the witch specifically has it out for this child so like #It can be interpreted as predator-prey very literally AND later on thematically #Gingerbrave is a prey animal guys. He’d have that prey fear; the knowledge he was born to become carnage at the fangs of something infinite #More powerful than him #But uhhhh yeah.

Yesterday, our dearly beloved rat, Hesper, passed away.

He was the last of our rats, as well as one of the most loving and good-hearted animals I have ever known. He slept in bed with us every night and spent every day overjoyed to be in our lives, even while declining following a stroke. When he finally reached a point where I could see he was starting to suffer, I made a petition to the Bone Mother asking her to embrace him and carry him lovingly to the Quietus. Not even two minutes afterward, he passed away in our hands as we stroked him and sang to him.

His warm cuddles, shining eyes, and unconditional love will be deeply missed and forever cherished in our hearts. It's really hard to lose another beloved companion while in the process of caring for two other terminally ill animals, but I am grateful he is at peace.

This is a mourning portrait taken of him after we anointed him with holy oils and laid him out on a bed of rose petals upon our Chthonic Altar. I feel compelled to share it, as a reminder that Death can be a beautiful and spiritual experience, even if it's a painful one.

This is Yui from Angel beats! SPOILERS

Yui became paralyzed and physically disabled after an accident when she was young. Due to this, she remained bed written for most of her life, and was taken care of by her mom. In the afterlife, she is ecstatic to have full mobility and rejoices in being able to do all kinds of things she had never even dreamed of before.

negative stereotypes? None! Many people (including me) relate to her and her representation of being physically disabled and appreciate the representation that was shown after the fact when she was reincarnated.

Good news! Doggo is back from the vet; she needed to go to a specialist further away but the blockage was cleared without invasive surgery. Turns out she hadn't even eaten anything she wasn't supposed to, she was just majorly backed up for lack of a better term but she's safe now and finally I can fucking relax.

Sprocket's acting worse this morning, and he hasn't defecated in at least 24 hours and very little in the days before that (extremely unusual for him) so we're going to the vet again in an hour, because I'm very worried he might need emergency surgery/he might have gotten blocked. Send good thoughts our way.

#text post #my post #animal illness cw #yesterday outside his symptoms his behavior was normal #but today he's slinking around and hiding under the bed #wish us luck getting him out from under there and into the carrier #i'm so worried #last time all this happened i ended up hospitalized. i do not cope well with my cat being sick #but i'm holding it together as best i can

One, thank you Quora, I def wanted to read this first thing in the morning, and two, god this comment section is so fucking stupid, full of people being like "oh well it's cuz we're fat and use toilets and eat taco bell now if we ate a paleo diet and shat on the ground we wouldn't need to wipe" when the real answer is ANIMALS NEED TO CLEAN THEMSELVES TOO YOU WALNUT.

#humans are not 'uniquely disgusting' you fucking weirdo #animals clean themselves all the time #and also animals DO get shit caught in their fur sometimes #and without human intervention you know what happens??? they get sick and fucking die #jesus the people on quora are brainless #ask to tag #cw bodily funtions

Small rant under the cut to explain my general absence

One of my dogs is very ill (and, if you are sensible to this sorts of topics, it would be a good idea to stop reading here).

She is a very old dog we found during the pandemic, and brought home. We wanted to find her a new home, but nobody wanted to adopt her, so we just kept her. She is sort of an outside dog (not really, we don't have her on the open, but she is not where we are either because she is blind and could get hurt and because she would eat our other dog at her first chance. She is very aggressive with other dogs...and unknown humans). Thing is, we knew when we decided to kept her that she wouldn't live for too long, she was estimated to be around 8 or 10 years old, incredibly round and generally not very healthy looking. But she seemed to be doing fine.

Until two weeks ago. We took her to the vet because she injured her mouth while eating, but it turned out that she had ehrlichia and that's why she was bleeding so much. At first she was super fine with the treatment, the lab results were very good and encouraging. She wouldn't bleed anymore, and seemed generally healthy. But a week or so later she started to have problems eating, and stopped completely. She, who I had to stop multiple times from eating a very wide range of non-eatable things on the street,going from poop to death animals.

Basically, she is anemic, and she can't even stand right now. She needs bloods transfusions, but the vet has directly told us that it would be very hard to get one and she would probably only live a few extra days, and that's all. She thinks that, since she is not responding to the treatment, she won't be able to generate new blood on her own, so the transfusion will be pointless.

I feel like I have to try. I feel like, If I don't, it would be like giving up on her. But even I was able to pay the whole thing (which I can't, but my family can. It's a family dog and all of us have been paying for her treatment), she might not accept it. She is aggressive and doesn't like staying still for too long, let alone in an unknown place. I don't even know if we are allowed to be with her while she has the transfusion, and I don't know if my anxiety would allow me to be there with her either (it happened before with our previous dogs, but luckily everyone else was able to stay with her).

I just really don't know what to do. I'm not as sad about her having to go as one would think because I knew from the start she wouldn't be with us for too long. But I hate having to decide how she leaves, for how long she has too fight. I don't want her to suffer or be unnecessary afraid in a place she doesn't know, but I don't want to give up on her either.

does anyone want to know where the idea of jackalopes (most likely) originated from?

because i’m gonna tell you!!

(content warning for under the cut: talking about fucked up rabbits, and at the end there are three pictures of rabbits with horn-like structures on its faces. the first one has it the worst with the horns all over its face, the second one only really has them on one side of its face, the third has a few.)

ok so its called scope papillomavirus, or cottontail rabbit papillomavirus!

it can cause keratinous structures that look like horns to sprout on the rabbits head!

and, like how manatees were mistaken for mermaids, it makes sense as to how these horns would be mistaken for antlers. especially as they can form on the top of the head.

(IF YOU LOOK IT UP PLEASE SPECIFY “HORNS” IN YOUR SEARCH. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY PART OF SPV AND THE OTHER VISIBLE ASPECTS OF IT ARE MUCH LESS COOL.)

aaaaanyways, this is what it looks like :D

i think its pretty fucking cool :D

#that moment when the autism of loving anything to do with animals (even the fucked up things) overpowers whatever empathy i have #i was originally going to post about chronic wasting disease in deer because theres an entire cryptid about that #(its called the notdeer incase anyone was curious) #but that one is a hell of a lot more fucked up so i just stuck with this one #♡⊱a talks #infodump #infodumping #info dump #info dumping #animals #tw animal illness #tw animal sickness #tw: animal illness #cw animal illness #cw animal sickness #scope papillomavirus #cottontail rabbit papillomavirus #jackalope #cryptid #i think thats enough tags #putting the a in autism
