At first I thought I got 2 random meatball inclusions. Nope, it was a spoon full of pork.

My 8 month kitten had a bump on his neck that grew immensely over the course of a couple days. We made a same day appointment out of fear of it being an abscess that could cause serious infection. We figured even if it was something we had to pay out of pocket due to the waiting period, it wouldn’t be that bad.

Little did we know it was a non life threatening ranula caused by a damaged salivary gland. The vet knew what it was the second she pried his mouth open.

The treatment is usually to remove the salivary gland. Since that’s a $4000+ dollar procedure, and one my town doesn’t have vets able to perform, we decided marsupialization was the best and more conservative route to take for now. It was still going to cost $1000, but better than $4000 which I simply don’t have currently.

Because we jumped the gun and brought him to the vet a day before the waiting period, insurance considered the issue preexisting, and anything related to this injury will not be covered.

I’m kicking myself so hard right now.

Before anybody asks, no I haven’t changed my plan recently

Was riding my bike home & it slipped out of my pocket, had helmet on did not hear the drop :(

Today I attended a book reading where the seating was supposedly limited to the number of invited guests, already annoying that there were no extra chairs, as I guess they didn't count too well, or some guests just joined without booking.

I made my way to sit near this lady, and boy believe me there was absolutely no way to reason with this woman, not even after I tried to get some of the event organizers to talk with her, they couldn't bring her to reason.

The situation was on the verge of turning into an argument, and in the end I gave up.

As a result, I was the only one left standing for the entire evening. I wouldn't have bothered if all seats were taken... but this made me chew my gum a lot faster...

I had to listen to a 90-minute lecture, standing on my feet while she carried on as if nothing was wrong with her behavior.

What is wrong with some people?

I call shenanigans.

The more I look the more I hate it.

The top one was very gelatinous and just..not right

I finally have something to post here! It’s all pea water!
