Cat diarrhea that won’t stop ?

My cat is almost 1 year old spayed female kitty, she’s an active and playful cat that I found on the streets when she was 2 weeks old, I don’t know her weight sadly.

Almost 3 weeks ago I noticed that she is having diarrhea, no issue, she gets them sometimes and I just give her the medicine the vet recommended and she’s back to normal.

But this time, it doesn’t go away. A few days go by and we head to the vet, he says she must have eaten something off the floor, give her an injection to clean her gut and we are heading home.

More days pass, I notice she’s losing appetite and not playing as much. Another trip to the vet later, he says she had a slight fever and that we’ll try a different medication, tablets this time.

He prescribed antibiotics injections for 4 days, tablets for 3 days, and some vitamins.

Now the treatment plan is over, she’s in better health, eating and drinking, playing around, sleeping normally, but the diarrhea is still here ??

I was cuddling with her last night and heard this weird gurgling sound coming from her tummy, her farts are deadly, but everything else is fine ?

I noticed her drinking extra water, which I guess makes sense since she’s used to being very hydrated (her food has so much water).

My next plan would be taking her to a lab to do some tests, but that’s so expensive and I’d need time to save up for it (at least 2 weeks).

Does anyone have any ideas what it could be ? I’m genuinely wrecking my brain over it and can’t figure out where it all came from.

Me (21F) and the guy (22M) that I like studied together and I did shit on the exam, how do I get over the embarrassment ?

So you can read my last post on true off my chest for my context, but basically me and this guy work together often, the tension and chemistry is there and overall I’m crushing HARD.

Last night we were chatting and I mentioned struggling with studying, he offered to tutor me, I was over the moon but played it chill and was like yeah sure why not.

The study session was fun and I understood his tutoring, we finished in 3 hours some time after midnight (we were on call).

Now we get to today, I wake up to my alarm not going off, bus is waiting OUTSIDE as I’m running like crazy, cat isn’t fed, can’t find my keys, no breakfast or water, barely make it out the house.

Already my day is a mess but I’m trying to revise, I focus on the 2 chapters the instructor told us are important, I make it on time but still stressed.

My turn comes (it’s an OSCE) and I’m still not feeling the best, I walk into the exam hall and apparently everyone who finishes the exam stay in the same room just slightly to the back as the next person takes their turn.

Long story short, I did shit. It was 2 stations and I absolutely wrecked one but did decent on the other. It felt humiliating seeing him watch me completely mess up, it wasn’t even that hard but I was beyond anxious and couldn’t remember anything to save my life.

After I was done embarrassing myself and sat down, he told me in a joking manner, “you did shit”.

I waited till the class was mostly empty and burst into tears in front of my instructor and some classmates (not him). They were all sympathetic, thinking I was crying over the grade when in reality I just didn’t like feeling stupid around him.

I mean yeah the grade is shit but I’m in a college, everyone gets a bad grade here and there. I was only upset to the point of tears because I felt like I wasted his time and he won’t study with me again because I’ll do bad anyway.

I’m genuinely a top student and he mentioned that multiple times, everyone knows I’m usually best of the best, it really just wasn’t my day.

So, what should my next move be ? Do you think texting him explaining my situation is good ? Or just pretending like nothing happened and acting normal is better ? Maybe wait for him to text first ?

The relationship is still very delicate so I really can’t help but overthink.

Sorry for turning this into a rant, if you read this far thank you so much lol.

I’m starting to develop a crush on the vice president (I am the president)

So, me (21F) and this guy (22M) are both a part of the student council in our college. Same program, same classes, genuinely have been around him for almost 3 years atp.

I’ve been in a relationship basically since I got to college and until recently (don’t recommend), and never really noticed the guy or registered his existence, and oh my god ???

A few weeks after my breakup we were talking together and I think my brain finally allowed me to take in his features, and he’s so cute ?

He’s very funny, makes me laugh my ass off during important meetings to the point I redo my eyeliner after every meeting. He is so reliable and immediately fixes anything that’s stressing me out.

At first I thought oh he’s just a good friend, it’s nothing. Then he starts texting me about personal stuff, then he finds my insta, then he’s liking my story.

I kept telling myself and people around me that even if he’s into me I don’t see him like that…

Well I lied, I definitely see him like that. I like how sleepy his eyes look, I like it when I make him blush, I like hearing him being a nerd about games, I like walking around with him and introducing him as MY vice president.

And me being almost like his boss is just another layer to the dynamic. I like that we are constantly paired together, I like when he calls me to check in with me, I like when something happens and he turns to me because I have the final say.

People are starting to notice that we’re spending extra time together, the prolonged eye contact, the glances…and I keep denying it because oh lord the amount of gossip people would get from knowing the president and vice president have a thing for each other.

Overall, I’m a mess.

Can’t believe I stayed with my bum of an ex when this man was literally right beside me since freshman year, pray for me y’all.
