I will give that cat anything he wants.

Ah, yes, the ol'

Let me go find my shocked face.

Somehow I get the feeling W2s are about to be even harder to come by.

Came here to say this. Now I have to dig even deeper into my high school trauma to find something else, thanks. 🤣

I don't know why I find it so funny that you're absolutely correct and I hadn't considered that, but it really just made my day.

Yep, there's flavor text at the bottom saying exactly that:

But this isn't your standard piece of tech; instead, it is a clever parody, an emblem of resistance to the unrelenting AI craze.

CalcGPT embodies the timeless adage - 'Old is Gold' - reminding us that it’s often rewarding to resort to established, traditional methods rather than chasing buzzword-infused cutting-edge tech.

Oh, look. Polk County being themselves out-loud again.

  1. Glad he's okay.
  2. That photo is absolutely iconic.

(IANAD, and I've never been on T.) Is it ever so slightly raised? If so, it could be a keratosis. I started getting them as I got older in similar places. Not sure what it could have to do with T, though... maybe hormonal changes in general? Dunno.

We used to feed only dry and it ended up causing us problems when we had to switch to wet for medical reasons (one had diabetes, and then the other ended up with CKD). The one who was supposed to be smart was somehow bad at eating it (she kept trying to chew it and it would fall out of her mouth 🙄) and also just generally didn't like it because it's not what she spent her life eating.

I don't think dry food is inherently bad or anything, but if that's your primary source of calories, then you do need to make sure your cat stays hydrated and also that they don't end up in carb-overload (unless you didn't mind the thought of giving your cat insulin twice a day, exactly twelve hours apart).

And it sounds like you don't have to worry about this last part, but for anyone else reading this: please make sure your cats have some amount of both when they're young and not so set in their ways... don't make the mistake we did!
