That's the half I picked up on, but based on the other comments, it seems like there's something else that I'm missing.

Could you maybe please explain for those of us who only get half (or none) of it?

Oh wow! That's awesome! I wonder if I'll see another upgrade soon too? I have a similar setup going too. Seed box for active torrents and other recently acquired files, and then anything I want to keep long term eventually gets moved to my local server.

I had tried a VPN + kill switch before getting a seed box, but it failed on me a few times. Plus, I was in school at the time, spending very little time at home, and my ISP increased their rates AGAIN, so I just cancelled my home internet. Trying to torrent through my laptop on public WiFi was a pain, but with a seed box it was way easier, and just needed to download the files to my laptop if I wanted to watch at home, which was also never a problem on public WiFi.

Here's a few, the trick I used was to translate "apple car" into other languages (Spanish, German), then search using the translations:

Also using whatbox.ca for a long time now. I remember quite a few years ago I received an email notification about them making changes to my plan, and I panicked for a moment until I finished reading and realized they were increasing my storage by 5x and my traffic limit by 2x, but my monthly price would remain the same.

I see you mentioned elsewhere that automatic boxes probably won't be sufficient. While I generally wouldn't recommend a litter box that fully disposes of the waste automatically (because scooping the poop might be the first or only warning sign of health issues), something like the Cat Genie might help.

If Kika is willing to use an enclosed litter box, you might create a litter box enclosure using one of those pet doors that can be set to unlock only for specific animals based on their microchip or a collar tag.

Omg, look at those little floofs! How old are they now? From your original post, I wasn't sure if they're 3 weeks now or were 3 weeks old when you found them 3 weeks ago.

Oh, I'm so glad! I've been thinking about your last post and hoping for the best. It can be such a tough call, because you don't want them to suffer, but sometimes they do pull through. Damn adorable little drama kings and queens!

I've been fostering kittens for a few years now, but had my first bottle babies and my first loss last year. In fact, 4/5 of the bottle babies I had last year tried to die at one point or another. The only one that didn't was accepted by a nursing queen that I was fostering at the same time. The most dramatic kitten was actually the last one:

I had a litter of 3 orphaned kittens. First one refused to eat, so she got tube feeding & antibiotics. A week or so later, her brother's appetite went from 200% to 5%, so he also got tube feeding & antibiotics. Both of them spent a few days on a downslide before eventually turning around. When they were about 3 weeks old, and I was finally starting to relax a bit, the third one decided it was her turn.

I was feeding them every 3 hours around the clock, but occasionally skipping one feeding per night so I could sleep for more than 2.5 hours at a time. At 6p, she threw up, but was otherwise fine, and at 9p, she didn't want to eat, but was still alert and active. I couldn't fall asleep that night, so I figured there was no point in skipping the midnight feeding. When I went to feed them, I found her completely limp and barely responsive, so I rushed her to the ER, and I was scared she'd die before we even made it there. The vet immediately took her and it was probably 20-30 minutes later when they came back to me and said she wasn't responding and it would probably be best to put her down, but they'd keep trying a little longer. It was probably 15 minutes later that the vet came back again and had me follow them to the back where the little kitten was suddenly alert & responsive again.

On the vet's advice, I went back to feeding them every 2 hours for a bit. Everything was smooth sailing from there, and I got to send them off to their forever homes when they were about 10 weeks old. I hope they don't give you any more scares!

I just take my meds then stare at my phone for an hour. Lol.

Not sure if Ritalin has similar effects in this sense as Adderall, but I used to run into a problem where I'd wake up, take my meds, get ready and head out the door, then suddenly the most urgent need to #2. I was attending community college at the time, and parking was beyond terrible there, so I'd arrive at like 6:30a, only to find most of the restrooms still locked! Fun times.

You might find that switching to a different food helps with the smell. According to my vet, corn, wheat, soy, fish, beef, and lamb are ingredients likely to cause digestive issues in cats, so switching to a food with less/none of those ingredients might help. My friend's cat had terribly stinky (but solid) poos and when she tried a different food, the smell became much more tolerable.

I think I was about 23 when I started to have to stop and calculate my age whenever it came up.

I'm pretty sure microplastics have even been detected in rainwater.
