    My mother who was meant to be looking after the ferrets hadn't cleaned them since January and has recently sold them.

    So much pet based sadness.

    I think my Shakey cat (at age 17.5) has gone blind. At least, her night vision seems completely gone. Daytime slightly better.

    Daytime was blind too. But miraculously can see everything this morning! Cats are amazing.

    Tiger died today. She was 13.

    Your cat has the same name as mine. And, unsurprisingly, looks similar. Sorry for your loss.

    Thank you. I never noticed before, but every time I get up or move around, the first thing I'd do was pet the kitty. I keep turning around and starting to reach for where she should be. She was always nearby, either on my lap or on the bed or on the floor right next to me.

    I woke up yesterday to the sound of a panicking mouse stuck in a spider trap. I had to move the thing while it crapped itself in terror looking at me and squeaking. Then I had to knock it out and drown it cause we don't want mice in our house or outside in our yard breeding.

    I have never felt more sympathy for an animal. It was crappy to say the least.

    You did the right thing. That mouse would have killed you and your family given the chance.

    I feel for you, but I initially read it as a moose in a spider trap and got really confused.

    I'd feel bad, but I once had to bash a dying kitten with a shovel to put it down. I'd feel less shitty about killing a mouse. It's a normal response though. I mean I feel bad about crushing most bugs. Except mosquitoes. Those blood-sucking bastards can die.

    You had to bash a dying kitten? With a shovel? That's... pretty fucked up. :(

    Kitten vs. car engine is a sadly predictable result. A shovel was collected for the burial part, but served as a functional implement for hastening the inevitable.

    Well, I guess there was that other case when an older cat did the same thing but successfully rode in the engine for several miles before being safely extracted from the engine unharmed and returned home. That was just weird.

    Roseanne Barr did not win her bid for presidency. Despite only finding out she was running shortly after Obama's acceptance speech, and not even being from the USA, I am disappointed, America. You welcomed her into your home throughout the 90's, she made you laugh, and you throw away all your votes on less worthy candidates.

    rosanne barr is pretty transphobic so i'm ok with her not winning

    Actually, I knew nothing about any of the minor parties and was whining unnecessarily because the Canada Party wasn't real.

    I'd vote for the Canada Party.
