This is the equivalent of what you remove from cats when they undergo declawing procedures. It’s barbaric, excruciatingly painful, + can cause a massive range of health + behavioural issues in cats.
Don’t do it, and if you’re having scratching issues, speak to a behaviourist 🐾
These kinds of dogmatic “adopt don’t shop” people really do not take into account the broader picture.
Rescues making potential adopters jump through unreasonable hoops to get a kitten.
People with allergies wanting a hypoallergenic cat.
People who support rare breeds etc etc.
i fucking hate seeing videos from cat breeders on tiktok. i hate seeing pregnant cats. there is no such thing as ethical cat breeding, there is no such thing as responsible cat breeding. i said what i said!
I’ve never cried laughing at a video before, but this one made me genuinely weep at 3am through laughter to the point of not being able to breathe and every time I think about it I start insanely wheezing again

The cat’s out of the bag!…or should that be lion 👀?

Watching Kaarija’s face fall was like an arrow to the heart, I’m so utterly gutted for him - a fun, bright, energetic and enjoyable entry compared to a bland, generic and boring mass produced pop song.
Hot. ACTUAL. DAMN. This took so much longer than originally anticipated 😭 but it's DONE

Oh yeah shameless fun fact, but the only reason I didn’t wear tights on a freezing cold January con day was so I could get my beautiful new stag tattoo out to show off 😂😂😂
Good morning to everyone except the dudes who have already tried to shoot their shot in my dms and comments since yesterday’s announcement of my breakup 🙌🏻✨☀️
As a health worker, I am one of the potentially first in line for a Covid vaccine, and you’d better believe that
#Iwillgetvaccinated
Covid needs to be controlled, and a vaccination is the reality to this, as lockdowns around the world have largely failed.
Threads like this are why vets kill ourselves.
The amount of vitriol, spite, and general hatred towards us as a profession from some people is simply mind-boggling, given all we want is to protect your pets and see them free from pain and suffering.
Do better.
My dog got a grass seed stuck in his paw which developed into a blood blister.
Vet wanted to take him in overnight and operate on his paw at a cost of £750. So instead, I applied Sudocrem to the wound and within the hour it was all sorted.
How do vets sleep at night?

My dudes, dudettes and other duders, I introduce to you my latest labour of love:
Acer the Decidueye!!
Yes it’s warm in there, and yes, he was made my me from scratch ;D
One of the more surprisingly humbling and gut wrenching moments in veterinary medicine is when owners turn to you after you’ve just put their pet to sleep and they say “thank you” 😢😞
Makes me remember that even in death we are doing the best for their pets

It is with a heavy heart and deepest despair I must announce…
The doctors yesterday took my general measurements…
Turns out I’m not 5 foot 4…
Im 5 foot 3.
FIVE. FOOT. THREE.
Im so incensed I’ve been shorter than I thought I was my whole life 😭😭😭
Friendly reminder that repeatedly saying you’re a good person and insisting you are nice does not make you as such - actions will always speak louder than words, and when your actions don’t align with your self-proclamations, you’re ultimately a fraud.
Ya girl brought home the performance honour award for Decidueye - absolutely delighted, and absolutely delighted for the incredible winners 😍😍❤️❤️

Huh, just realised that a few days ago I hit 18 months clean of self harm.
Ngl… I think that’s actually the longest period of time I’ve managed that since the very first time I unfortunately did it back as a teenager.
I guess therapy and self-care really pays off ❤️
Landlords not allowing pets is honestly the biggest L.
Like my cats do nothing but sit on the beds and the sofa and snooze, yet they’re not welcome, but a snotty child who is inarguably more destructive?? COME ON IN, ALL ARE WELCOME 🙄🙃

Adopt OR shop RESPONSIBLY.
There’s a huge difference with being careless and not neutering your pets and allowing accidental litters to happen, compared to breeders who *adore* their animals and breed extremely responsibly.
Puppy and kitten mills are the problem here.
Yeah ok so this was my first MegaCon ever and I’m seriously impressed - wonderful atmosphere, not horrifically overcrowded, great stalls etc
Cannot rate it enough and no I’m not being paid or encouraged to say this just because I’m on a creator pass hahaha
@megaconlive
So six and a half hours total of driving, an entire house packed into two vans, three cats left with a dear friend for an extended holiday and over 11K steps for 3 days straight…
I’m free.
I’ve escaped the Isle of Wight forever 🥲❤️
