I have the exact opposite experience! I have rewatched movies and shows with subtitles on and picked up so much more. Reading means it goes into my head better.

I stopped using them because they use FedEx and that carrier is horrible where I live. Unreliable, late deliveries by days, and inconsistent. My last order was for dog food that I ordered a week before I really needed it. I ended up running out because FedEx kept pushing the delivery day by day.

I saw them quite a few times in concert when I was a kid in Abilene, Texas in the 80s. I even made a scrapbook.

I would adopt Ophelia in a heartbeat if I didn’t live approximately 30 million miles away in the US. She is adorable.

Hi, it was me. I’m so glad they like it! Your pictures make me smile everyday so it’s the least I could do.

I call one of my dogs Pookie Bear. Another Fro-fro (real name Frodo), and Lizzie is always Lizzie-Izzie.

I did it because I could help someone who needed it. We all need to take care of each other.

I don’t think so. Every kitten I’ve raised always goes straight to the litter box. Like I’ll put them in there and move their paws around in it and that usually kicks in the instinct. How old is the kitten?

I generally start kittens in a room away from other pets and people for a few days or so to get them used to the sounds of the house. Lots of toys, handling, wet/dry food mix. Regular litter box with no cover. This is just me but I have raised a lot of kittens.

Depends on the type. Most cats generally don’t like covered boxes though. They’ll use them but don’t prefer them when given the choice.
