My cat is an 8 year old big (20 pound) British shorthair mix. Hes a fairly lazy kitty, but the cat is very food motivated.

Tonight i prepared his wet food for dinner, and he was super uninterested. Like he smelt it and then went a few feet away to lay on the ground and just stare at it. He ate fine this morning.

He has been hiding on his cat tree in the basement today, even tho its only been about 20 degrees Celsius out, which is odd unless its very very warm out.

Hes sitting with me purring, but with his mouth kinda open? Its not fully closed but his mouth is open a tad and hes purring.

No changes have happened in our home environment recently and my husband just went to check it there is vomit anywhere that the cat was today and there was none. My cat is also a post diabetic, but his diabetes have been very undercontrol for 2 years and i tested his blood sugars a few days ago and they were fine.

He has a water fountain and usually i see him drink from it a few times a day, i wasn't really home all day so i cannot know how much he had. I did the skin test between his shoulder blades and on other loose parts near his hips and i think its tenting? But i don't remember how many seconds it has to take for the skin to bounce back for it to be urgent.

Im just wondering if this warrents a trip to the vet tonight or if i can wait to call my normal vet in the morning? Im ok with either option, its just that the emerg vet can get very busy where i am, but if someone with knowledge says i should take him tonight i will.

I have an interview for an ARA position. The position looks interesting to me because it looks like you get to stock and keep the ambulances disinfected.

​

What is / how long is the training for this position if i was sucessful? I have my week long of housekeeping / infection control and prevention training i did 6 months ago.

​

Im trying to guage how long it may be so i can plan accordingly if i am successful.

Hello!

Im 90% sold on buying a bike + this week. Ive been exploring the peleton app and i love the content. One major reason i want the bike + is for the auto resistance adjustment.

I am wondering if its possible, on or off the app, to just bike, but something that is without music but with maybe scenery? There is a program at the bike at my gym where you can choose different "courses". These courses show you minimal metrics, but the screen is as if your biking outside on a trail. Can the peloton do this?

I plan to use the subscription, but there will be sometimes where i may want to put my tv on and watch a show while i bike.

Any insight is appreciated :)

Edit: i checked the wiki and it looks possible. Is the scenic mode in app or programed onto the bike? It says no instructor is present, but is it possible to let the auto adjust work with the terrian the screen shows?

Hello! I just started Wegovy and have my third shot of .25 coming up on friday. So far my appetite and food noise have been reigned in. I feel like i have more energy and im eating around 1600 to 1800 calories a day (this is about a 1000 calorie deficit than what i was eating before).

My period is due to start in a few days, and ive been eating like a little pacman. Mind you, im craving chocolate, but the craving will be satisfied with small amounts of chocolate, where as before the craving could not be satisfied. Most of the stuff im eating is whole non processed foods, but im craving stuff like nutella on a banana or a bowl of cereal.

Is this normal? I know hormones are going to shift things, but is this food noise something i can just expect to come for a few days before my period? Will it get lesser when i start on .50 in 10 days? I just want to plan ahead to maybe have healthier craving food in my house like dark chcolate or more protein focused craving food like protein pudding.
