    General Felix's Big Day

    I probably would have waited just another day before switching cages since they new guys need to be introduced in a neutral territory anyways and cages need to be 100% cleaned before getting them together. Having them meet at the rescue can sometimes have different results than at home, but...

    C&C Up to 41 grids

    That's entirely up to you, if the bottom already has support. On occassion, I have noticed that grids without a base to support the rectangle shape can be moved and contorted a bit, so I'd suggest grids on the bottom if it's on a table? I haven't ever actually used a table though. And sometimes...

    Art Schools?

    Oh, I've read up on them plenty. Reviews are VERY mixed, more leaning toward how aweful things can be there. But I personally think that people that have good experiences tend to write long-winded posts/ reviews far less than those that have something to be upset about. And every student has...

    Art Schools?

    So after I finish my Fieldwork experiences and get my degree in order to become an occupational therapy assistant, I am planning on going back to school for a Game Art and Design degree. Do any of the members here know any art schools that have an established name, like the Art Institutes? I...

    Tattoos...

    Here is my bfs first tattoo that he got TODAY! He has played the piano since he was a kid and loves the band Evanescence, so that's their symbol with thorny vines around it above the piano piece.

    General 80$ Petco GIFCARD!!! What are your favorite guinea pig toys/treats?!

    I wouldn't really buy any of the treats the most Petco's offer. Yogurt treats and other surgary messes aren't good for your pigs. They do have small papaya pieces that are supposed to just be papaya and artificial color, but it [looks] like they're covered in sugar. The best kind of treats are...

    Neutering/Spaying Rictor is going in on Tuesday

    I have to wait ANOTHER Tuesday for Rictor to get neutered. All my anxiety has been thrown out the window and replaced with impatience. This week has more serious reasons however. My friend at the rescue had a death in her circle of friends is a huge part of everything that happens after that has...

    C&C Goodbye Useless Appendix, Hello New C&C Layout

    I made the same mistake of saying 8-9. Nurse asks, "What is your pain rating? 10?" and I go, "Like- 8-9?" and she writes it down as she's walking away. A woman who came in screaming that her wrist was broken and limp and complaining of 10 out of 10 pain was in and out before I had even seen a...

    Animal Welfare Pet Insurance Fraud? America's Court

    [There was a little bit of implied sarcasm in my post about how shocking everything is.] I have no heard of Care Credit, @MrWhistles! I just googled it but would love for you to explain it a little more if you have already used it!

    C&C Goodbye Useless Appendix, Hello New C&C Layout

    Well to get the degree to become an occupational therapy assistant, 12 more weeks. BUT. I'm in one of those positions that I enjoy doing work as a OTA, but it's something my mother picked for me. And it's been a struggle the last few months to bring up the conversation "I want to go back to...

    Animal Welfare Pet Insurance Fraud? America's Court

    Ok. So I'm really not sure where to post this ridiculousness and am in no way trying to bring up religious issues. . . I'm sitting here on my couch watching America's Court for the first time. I used to watch Judge Pirro:love: and have refused to watch the shows that have filled her spot since...

    THAT is not how you use that!

    I will take much better care of Rictor after his surgery than I have of myself. Caring for Alenko when he was ill has really prepared me for responsibilities with other pigs

    THAT is not how you use that!

    HAHAHA! Yes, I just wanted to show Rictor that if I can do it, he can do it. Lol I had a laproscopic appendectomy late Thursday night.

    C&C Goodbye Useless Appendix, Hello New C&C Layout

    Haha, Thanks @kananaka. I've always been one of those "Oh, it'll pass" kind of people and since getting into the medical field and NOT having health insurance during college, it's been even worse. Dehydration, bronchitic, and now appendicitis.
