    I'm very sorry to hear this. Please tell us more if you're so inclined.

    My heart goes out to you, @Clementine_3. A double-whammy like this is always super hard to deal with. From what you described, it does sound like something happened and Tickle just wasn't able to recover from it, something that if she had been young and healthy likely would've gone unnoticed. I...

    Sad news

    It's a shame to throw out expensive prescription food but, unfortunately, that may be what you'll have to do. Since you've done so much already, I can only think of asking on NextDoor if anyone can use it. For those who don't know, NextDoor is a site/app where you're only talking to people...

    How are you doing, @Clementine_3? It's okay to say it sucks, and you're not doing any better. Or whatever the case may be. :) Are you going to do anything with Raphael's things, like his collar, tags, favorite toy, food bowl, etc.? Some members have done beautiful, physical things, so they...

    How To Replace Windows With Linux

    I can guess. :D

    Is shipt for real?

    I don't know if you're being intentionally obtuse or what, but you're definitely missing the point. So let's try this from a different angle! Assume that you're UNABLE to physically go shopping at your local supermarket. You're housebound and cannot leave. You cannot get to a store. You cannot...

    I'm in my least favorite place

    That decision is always the worst. I'm ashamed to say that, in the past, I selfishly postponed that decision because I wanted more time with the cat/dog. I learned my lesson, though, some 30+ years ago, and haven't screwed up again since. I'm sure you struggled with the decision, but you knew it...

    Is Blade a Great Dane? :eek: His face looks a lot like all of my Danes as babies, but his paws aren't as big as I'd expect for a Dane. I'm not surprised you can't remember all the names of the cats and dogs in your life! There were a lot of them. Shoot, sometimes I don't remember all the names...

    I'm in my least favorite place

    I hear you, @olbriar, all around. It's in my will and trust that any pets I have when I die must remain in this house, with proper care; they won't ever end up in a shelter or moving to someone else's home. As you might guess, Joy Noelle was the only pet explicitly mentioned by name in those...

    I'm in my least favorite place

    We're not only close in age, @olbriar, but our houses are, too. Mine was built in 1946, so it's 77 (right? I'm so out of it...morphine and hydrocodone will do that to you). And although I've only lived in it for 17 years, it's been in my family for 52--my grandmother bought it in 1971. My mom...

    Sad news

    I'm glad you're getting along. I know how awful it is right at first, and I also know that people lose interest in others' loss after a while, so I wanted you to know that I'm thinking of you and what you're going through right now. One thing that helps me--a little--is knowing that my beloved...

    How sweet that you fed the strays, and also that you had help during your calls! That last shot reminded me of a sequence I took of Joy Noelle one night: This was in our bedroom, she's on the window AC unit. What has piqued such intense interest? Well........ Believe it or not, we have rats...

    Is shipt for real?

    READ ITS LABEL. On the product page for that item, at the store you're shopping for an Instacart order, like this for my favorite vegan cheese: It's NO DIFFERENT than holding it in your hand and reading the label, like I always do before buying anything, and I mean ANYTHING, whether it's...

    Sad news

    Just wanted to check in, @Clementine_3, and see how you're doing. I'm sure the void left by Raphael's absence is crushing, but I hope you're doing okay.

    Is shipt for real?

    Not everyone uses those services for instant gratification. Some people *need* this kind of help, and are lucky it exists now. People who are housebound or can't drive, among other things. Others, including me, prefer shopping online and find the variety and convenience of using Instacart worth...
