Whisker fatigue causes stress and overstimulates their senses. Using a flat bowl or plate will relieve this issue and allow your cat to eat all their food without stress....
I’m not sure if this is just me, but it drives me nuts when I see someone answer a question (for example in the questions section on an amazon product page) to just say that they don’t know or they give an unrelated answer....
Hey I used to get those and answered almost exactly like that. I have not gotten a question after I got into a review argument about how I was being disrespectful yet I never really agreed to answer questions for Amazon’s customers…(I probably did but those tos terms are always bullshit)
I’m sure Amazon blacklisted me from getting those questions because of my answers.
Also…9/10 times the questions literally made slno sense, were beyond dumb, or could be answered by reading the actual product page.

It’s not always about the performance impact…DRM has been known to restrict and prevent legitimate gamers from playing the games meanwhile those that sail the high seas ignore the useless DRM and continue to play.
I was not joking, because I’m sure you’re aware that if you go into a coffee shop and ask for a latte you get a milk coffee drink, and not just milk. But thanks for the clarification that English drops the caffe word

“Federal regulators have sued Amazon, alleging the company for years “tricked” people into buying Prime memberships that were purposefully hard to cancel....
I always had the cancel window up as I subscribed to my free useless prime garbage. Subscribe then instantly cancel. Few Google searches pointed to directly where to cancel, your average human can’t seem to google things. It’s really not hard.

I’m Canadian but I expect this sale is on for other countries as well. This also means if you are in the USA – the price for you to get the Sims 3 bundle is even lower. (EDIT: Note that the bundle doesn’t include the Base Game which is required but can also be bought off of steam.)...
I’ve always been conservative about what kind of services I host because it takes time to get them set up. For example, there’s no reason for me to set up music streaming when I only ever listen to music on my phone and all my music files are already on my phone. On the other hand, it’s a good learning opportunity to set...
I would rather waste a week setting something up to find I don’t like it, then paying some company to give me some ad riddled thing that phones home every few minutes and being stuck with it for a month, then the nonstop emails after I’ve cancelled and my information being sold to who knows who.
I love me some vegan cheesesteak, but they do take a while to soak/bake/fry up the “steak” (tofu). I made this one some months back. Calzones also bring me back to my former years of greasy takeaway. What about all of you?
I’m not a vegan by any means so I overlook a bunch of the ingredients… but foods that could easily be vegan that I enjoy are mapo dofou (without the pork obviously), spicy eggplant or anything Vietnamese. (Again, minus the fish sauces. )
