Ted n me went on an adventure to the park. He found sitting down to be easiest. He loved looking at all the birds tho some did not like him, he sniffed the sniffs and watched ducks swimming and people and cars on the busy streets but he was glad to be home and sat up once we got back to our little courtyard
Ted’s Big Adventure! Without Bill…
maybe I’ll put both in there one time, they just have to not fight
They need one with two compartments.
Unfortunately if it’s the same as Melbcat’s the bottom ‘shelf’ is far too small to put a cat carrier in. So no chance of doubling up like that.
Edit: Unless heavily modified… 🤔 but no. I think the cavity beneath the original capsule would still not be tall enough and not deep enough. The front panel saying ‘Pawz’ could be removed so the carrier could be pushed forward between the struts (and secured with a strap) but the frame would be too narrow to allow that.
The stroller is big enough, the fluff makes the boys look big, and the weight specs can carry them both, they just have to be nice to each other
I meant sticking a standard plastic airline style carrier in underneath for the second boy, so they’re separated and can’t punch on.
But I think even if modified for more room the dimensions of metal frame wouldn’t allow that
Edit. This is what I mean. The smaller fabric shelf and front Pawz panel could be removed and replaced with a larger shelf, if it was large and rectangular enough to hold a standard plastic carrier. Like these for under rollators or wheelchairs.
But the room below might not be enough and could cause issues if the bottom carrier was riding too low.
And the width of the plastic carrier might be too much to slip between the pram legs for that little extra room for the top front edge.
It’s just easier to see how they will be and if they fight too much then I will leave one of them home.
Hooray Ted’s first big day out!
His eyes were as big as saucers when we got home and I got him out the stroller. He also tried to bite me but that’s normal.
Lol’d at “he also tried to bite me but that’s normal” 😂
omg, he loves his stroller, 🐱, he went back in of his accord and is happily chirping in there . He’s asleep in there now. 🤷♀️
Oh my god I love how his fluffiness just fills up the pram
birb hunting noises
maybe
That’s so damn cool!!!
we went off road onto the unpaved bumpy path around the pond 🐱
Yeah it can be a bumpy ride. It really annoys me that you can’t change the wheels.
They do come off and you may have a slim chance at replacements off eBay. But the wheels themselves can’t come off to be replaced with something that has more shock absorption or traction. The double set of wheels are riveted together onto rectangular metal sleeves that click onto the legs of the frame.
At least they’re solid wheels so you can’t get a flat. 😔
I have considered stretching larger tyres over them as if they were inner tubes but that would require guesswork to buy tyres online that might not fit well.
I’m not a car or bike person but I’d think you’d have to consider both diameter and width.
And because it’s mostly welded in one piece you can’t even do anything with shock absorbers or an axel.
I could remove the rivets by damaging them and re-rivet some different wheels in but that’s a last resort repair. Don’t have the energy for all that.
I basically just put extra padding in the capsule to help cushion the cat and went carefully.
a little bumpy is good and yes, there is lots of padding 🐱
I want one of these for my future cat friend.
How exciting, and cute!
What a gorgeous experience for him!!
Now I have the stroller transporting cats is easy so I just booked Theodore in for some vaccinations at Lort Smith. 🐱
ngl that’s why we bought ours way back. So much easier transporting felines in a wheeled conveyance than dragging a carrier full of weight-shifting whining lil’ bitch around
got tired of trying to coordinate goget cars and days off for vet visits, now I can go when ever I have to
Little Old Dog was sedated on Monday for Xrays and is still quite wobbly. He’s a little more lost than usual (this morning he got stuck between a bookcase and a wall in an area of the house he rarely ventures to), so it’s time to Senile Dog proof the house. Poor littlest love!
Oh poor little fella, sending hugs to senile pup 🤗
Naaaw. Squish.
Senile kitty proofing was a thing. She forgot how to meow so finding her got tricky.
Oh no. Toby is so tiny, if he lost the ability to whine, I’d have lost him for ages this morning, he was in such an obscure spot. I blocked it from future access, but now I’m worried about all the other knooks and crannies he might be able to jam himself in… guess my evening is sorted!
so many gentle pats
Poor old bub. Keep him safe and give him some extra love
Thank you! All the extra love for him while trying to keep him as happy and healthy as possible. Right now there’s far more good times than bad times for him, but definitely mindful that scale will tip.
That’s all you can do for them. As many good days as you can give them
Poor old fella
Nawwww. You poor sweet sweet little moccasin. ♥
I demand photos of the bum biter in his stroller.
I don’t know how some people have so much energy and motivation. You know the ones. You get tired just looking at them. I want this superpower.
Neither do I.
I’m pretty grumpy and tired in the morning and listening to the animal farm of one of the workrooms when I get into work early in the morning and hearing it makes me even more exhausted.
New patch almost there:
Looks off from the angle but the bubble doesn’t lie.
Always trust the bubble.
In the bubble, we trust.
always
That’s fucking haunted. How is that level?
It’s not 6ft yet.
Mr Woof must have wondered what was going on in the neighbourhood today. Our evening walk took us past all sorts of characters - a witch, a walking skeleton, the grim reaper and a walking pumpkin!
My street is fucking dead (so to speak) kinda sad but also quiet
Same in my own street, dead as a doornail. Had to take the Minipeelers in their costumes to nearby streets where people are allowed to decorate their houses and have fun.
Walking pumpkins could avoid blisters on their bum. But also terrify the near vicinity
Today was one of those “can I just tell the client to go fuck themselves?” kind of days.
Agreed! Wanted to do that so badly this afternoon to someone who can last minute just as I was trying to leave to get things done.
“Can I tell the rest of the department to fuck off?” Kinda day here too.
Happy Halloween. Ooooooooooooo (is that the noise that ghosts make?)
Disclaimer: last year pic. I failed several ways
The cat make it perfect.

I’m trying to keep them alive and attract more activity, keep Lemmy active
I’ve joined, but they don’t show up in my feed. Have to actively click on them
No app. Web direct.
hmm that’s weird - works for me (jerboa + web app).
Everyone encouraged to dress up for Halloween to work today. I’m going as an overweight, sleep deprived, depressed desk jockey.
What a coincidence, me too!!!
My toe nails need clipping and I spilt tea on my shirt. I’m dressed as a derro.
My outfit is caring about work politics. Spooky!
I get my results back today, so excited!
🤞
Thankyou, in waiting room now.
So the results are… nothing 😒No Buruli Ulcer but no anything else either. Doctor wants to just hand ball me to specialist. I showed him pictures I’d taken and said is it likely to be a form of Pityriasis. He agreed it could be, but said he wouldn’t like to guess. Funny, he didn’t mind guessing it was Impetigo and had me take antibiotics for a week while I was petrified I had an infectious disease. I said seeing as I’ve been using cortisone on it and it’s helping, can I get a script for more (I’m using miniest’s tube and it’s almost ran out) and he ummed and ahhed about that and said that because he wasn’t sure what it was he didn’t really want to prescribe anything. As for the specialist, $365 is absolutely no dice. It’s just not doable. It’s already cost me a day’s pay for this.
That’s fucked up. I mean, glad it isn’t buruli, but what else could it be?
It isn’t psoriasis is it? That responds to cortisone (I think) and is caused by everything from simple stress to other shitty diseases. If you send me a pic I can see if it looks like my psoriasis lol I think you still have my mobile number.
The Dr prolly is hesitant to prescribe cortisone without knowing what it is, as cortisone can make it worse. But if it’s helping… 🤷🏼♀️ I’m sorry that it’s so expensive. It fucking sucks how much a specialist can be, when not covered by insurance or Medicare. Ugh.
Ok will send you some pics lol.
I’m not sure how much of your body it might be over but you might either be able to get away with some low level cortisone or maybe behind the counter from the chemist that might help.
His Lordship copped fucking dyshidrotic eczema from covid - he’s on predniserone now and it seems to finally be kicking its arse
Ooh that’s nasty, poor thing! Glad he’s getting over it, it’s so uncomfortable.
I’ve had pityriasis. Twice. So I know what the itch is like. Antihistamines are your friends.
It’s weird isn’t it. When I got the herald patch there wasn’t any discomfort at all. Then the other rash started, and my goodness I showered too enthusiastically with a rough flannel but did it feel good.
I took quick warm baths. I moisturised. I wore soft cotton t shirts and I ate a lot of antihistamines. Second time around wasn’t so bad and it was a much quicker recovery. I haven’t had it since.
There’s no doubt that’s what you have.
I have a new unopened tube of cortisone cream I can peel my info off of if you have a PO Box to send it to? And could collect it as PeelerSheila…
I don’t meet people or ask for identifying info but if it’s a PO box I can send it anonymously one way
Edit: Sorry, scratch that… it’s been opened so I don’t want to send something used. I had two. Must have accidentally thrown out the new untouched tube and kept this one.
Try the 1% that you can get over the counter or maybe a short cool oatmeal bath
Thankyou, I’ve got a bit of the Antroquoril left, and when it runs out I’ll go the sigmacort route.
Some viruses can leave people with weird rashes, good to hear it’s responding to some treatment.
$365
Ouch jeez some of them charge extreme prices.
Frustrating experience today with being led astray with google maps. Ended up driving and wasting so much time this afternoon through so much roadworks.
Might have been easier to pay for postage next time considering the petrol wasted.
Well at least I’m finally home and can see if my new wares fit else it’s a return trip back there this weekend.
Least you didn’t get bogged in the middle of the bush.
True. Only bogged in the middle of peak hour traffic.
I have had a bat related tantrum. Control your crotch goblins.
Here's me enjoying my child free life
Didn’t know you were ginger!
I’m only an occasional ginger. Usually I’m a champagne puss, often a black witch’s cat ;)
Boyo is kinda like that. Very ginger beard, the topsies depend on how much recent sun. Full metebolic redhead if you know
