My biology teacher apologized for teaching evolution. Even at UGA, which I enjoyed as an educational institution, my one black professor’s classes were assigned the English major’s multicultural designation because... he was black? In his own words, he had no idea why... it was depressing and terribly segregated. I left as soon as humanly possible.

    This is a rather late upload lol. Enjoy me rambling and plotting how to gently abduct the stray cat. Edit: NO, my title is not sarcasm and no I did not move to avoid racism. I moved for *a high quality of life.* It's just a plus that I'm around honest, upfront people. Someone commented as my last video, "The left wing and the right wing belong to the same bird, " after all. Think about that.
    FAQ: *How did I move? Did I break my lease?* I transferred to a different apartment building free of charge just with a new deposit. Think of my old luxury Boston building as a fancy Russian all-glass McDonald's. I moved to another McDonald's with similar interior, but different exterior. Same chicken nuggets, with cheaper rent. When I finish this lease I'm buying a house in the woods STAT. I have to get used to lizards because I'm not interested in city life or being connected all the time anymore. I'm doing all the home-buying research now. I'm hoping to find my Jethro because I'd love help building a cabin from scratch tbh.

Only because they loved her in Europe first was she ever looked at twice. Same for many other black and ethnic artists. The US ranks alongside South Africa under apartheid in terms of prejudice. And that’s the truth. Hurt those Lilly white heads of yours to grasp that?

    Oh and tips on getting the stray: leave food but don't capture it the first time, give a few days so the cat knows this is where it will get its food. While the cat is eating, leave your door open and see if it will come inside. Most likely it will not stay long, maybe 10mins or so and then it would want to leave, let it leave.
    After a day or two with the cat inside for short visits, bring the food inside and see if it will eat inside the apartment.
    If cat eats in the apartment, and it's stays lengthen to 45mins+, then it is time to capture it.
    Make sure you have stuff for it first, like food, litter box, food bowls, basic toys but not too much at first, and a kennel or travel bag.
    The kennel will be for when you take it to the vet which will need to happen very soon after the cat is captured

    I never liked cats either. Then for some odd miracle I got one. I was terrified and kept the kitten in the box for an hour until I was brave. Opened the box and it has been the love of my life. I still don’t like cats but I love mine. She is like a living teddy bear and my spirit animal all in one. I’ve never regretted it!

    The thing about cats is when you need one, one will come. Maybe this is your cat destiny...but only if you're ready to stay put. Otherwise take poor cat to shelter so it will be cared for this cold winter. Maybe you should think about going totally minimalist (stop buying furniture, etc) and go from town to town, country to country? Girl, you're young! LIVE IT to THE FULLEST! TRAVEL!!!

    Regarding strays: the best thing you can do, if you plan on homing one, is to take it to the vet for a checkup once you trap it. You can get cat traps and carriers online (I use Chewy, and my cats LOVE their comfy fabric carrier). The vet will be able to scan it to see if it’s chipped or not and also whether it’s been neutered/spayed. I’d strongly discourage letting an un-neutered Tom into your apartment... they’re usually super friendly and social but will also piss everywhere. But strays and rescues are great. They usually display gratitude and affection to their humans. Get the Temptations treats. Cats go NUTS for them!

    Good tip for lizards from a Floridian: They can not run and breathe at the same time. If a lizard gets in, it will be insanely easy to catch if you slide it into the box when it's taking a breathing break. They don't have much stamina either due to this so they stop often (: (I'm not a scientist, this is just something i've picked up from living where I do and interacting with lizards daily.) You can also easily pick them up like that man did and put them outside or somewhere else. When you're trying to get them to move, sometimes they may be taking a breather, so just wait a little while then get a little closer to them and they'll run :D!! You get use to your tiny little neighbors, trust me

  • @Leyluchis
    @Leyluchis Před 3 lety +12

    Ok, I’m here to talk about cats. A few things you should consider: one the cat may have a home and be an indoor/outdoor cat (yes, yes, a lot of people don’t like that, but they exist, even without the collars); two if one of cat’s ears is tipped (as in, missing the top) the cat has been TNRd (trap-neutered-released) and just lives in your neighborhood as a colony. Usually done so they don’t have any babies. Colony cats are feral and though you could adopt a feral, they are already living their lives and I would just not bother them; three if you really want a cat I would suggest you to adopt one from the shelter as cats are the most euthanized animals in shelters. There are tons of great resources online to find out more, but I would be really hesitant of you picking up whatever cat just because it’s outside. I’m a faithful follower of the Stamps Multiverse, but do not condone catnapping 😽

    You are supposed to use "cat traps" to get strays.
    You put a can of food in the trap & when a cat goes in, the open door closes.
    Also if you get them. Take them to a vet later. Because some cats have microchips. & vets can check if they have an owner.

I havent left for years but if i ever do my neighbors also feed him. I will never own a pet but when strays come and give me love, you do feel chosen!

    The best thing to do if you want a stray cat to like you is to let them come to you when they are ready. Get some cat food and feed them outside your door so that they will come to your area and get used to you. Then over time, they will build trust and may get curious to explore the inside of your home. When this happens, you can then ease your way into getting it used to your place. They may still want to go outside after, but the more you let them in when they want and out when they want, the more they will feel like they can trust you and eventually they won’t have the urge to be out as much. Hope this helps :)
