Introducing Hot Dog, the fanciest Brooklyn tuxedo in the history of felines

Hot dog is a four month old male tux kitten (tiny cherries are still intact) who has received all of his preliminary vet work and is currently crashing with me as a foster kitten. This tiny chicken nug was found alone in a New Jersey backyard and now he’s living the VIP life in Brooklyn.

He is a sweet, purring little love bug with a giant meatball head and would make a beautiful addition to the best home ever.

He is currently planning world domination and spends his days battling nip mice, watching Mad Men and trying to escape the bathroom to spend time with my two resident demons.

Hot dog is available for adoption. Hot dog requires that you have personal and Vet references and he would prefer if you had another cat to plot with.

PS the belly is plush, it is white and it is MAGNIFICENT.

If you would like to meet Hot Dog and potentially adopt him, please send me a message.

Introducing: Hot Dog, the fanciest tuxedo in the history of the world.

Hot dog is a four month old male tuxedo kitten (cherries are still intact) who has received all of his preliminary vaccines, worm, ear mites and flea meds, a SNAP test and is currently crashing with me as a foster kitten. He is currently receiving treatment for a fungal infection for the next few weeks.

Hot dog was found alone, scrounging for food in a backyard in New Jersey where I immediately went to scoop him and bring him back to the VIP life here in Brooklyn. He is a sweet, purring little love bug with a giant meatball head and would make a beautiful addition to a nice home.

He is currently decompressing and spends his days battling nip mice, watching Mad Men and trying to escape the bathroom to spend time with my two resident demons.

Hot dog is available for adoption. Hot dog requires that you have personal and Vet references and he would prefer if you had another cat to plot with.

PS the belly is plush, it is white and it is MAGNIFICENT.

Moving to Europe: My stuff could be your stuff : Part 2

Hi fellow Brooklyn peeps. You've heard it here first, I am off to Europe and selling the majority of my stuff. All of the decorative/smaller items can be taken immediately, most of the furniture and some kitchen things will need to stay with me until late July/Early August and even pushed into late August if necessary and can be "reserved" with a partial deposit. Serious humans only. Please do not waste my time, it makes my cats sad and is bad for my skin.

Building a brand in the US from the EU

Hello all of you beautiful humans,

Long story short, i’m living in New York City and I’ve had enough. I used to live in Europe and would really like to move back. The only caveat is that while I’ve been here in New York, I’ve been building a product based e-commerce business and I’m just about ready to launch.

I know a 3PL is an option as far as packing and shipping orders here in the US, but for a brand new baby business, I’m not sure if that’s financially the right way to go.

The Visa, taxes, all of that super simple and is far less anxiety-inducing than this issue. I’m worried that by making this move, I’m potentially stifling what I believe will be a hit.

My background is in brand building and marketing, so all of the content, creative, design, etc. Can be done from anywhere in the world, but I would essentially be skipping the “packing orders in my kitchen” phase, and I’m not sure if that’s the right thing to do.

Does anyone else have experience with this or possibly some guidance?

Started listening to High Frequency Guru two nights ago, already seeing shifts

Hello all of you beautiful glitter jellyfish!

I started listening to HFG two nights ago, literally less than 48 hours ago, and on and off during the day as I am able, and I can already kind of feel a bit lighter, calmer, and I have received:

A random Amazon refund, I have no idea why

Tomorrow is my birthday and I received the most beautiful surprise birthday flowers that I certainly was not expecting (perhaps from now on, I should be)

An old friend I haven't spoke to in nearly a year reached out and wants to catch up

My perfect angel cousin showed up and brought boba tea for me

I know these are mini things, but I always keep a running list of the small things when I feel stressed or anxious.

I listen with headphones and without, sometimes while I'm watching something else or cleaning or whatever-ing.

I listen to the following:

Here is a photo of my cat with the floral ribbon because he's cute and perfect.

I have an ecomm business but I’d like to move overseas to the EU. Need advice

Hi everyone!

So long story short: I was engaged to an abusive man, and last year I left. I started completely over and within a few months finally started to have the energy to begin to execute my business idea. This idea was with me for years but I just could not put much energy into it, everything went into the relationship.

Anyway, I’m finally out and while the business has not yet launched, supply chain has been sorted, my first batch of inventory is here and I’ve already gotten a small angel investment in about eight months.

The business is product-based and the original plan was to start selling DTC here in the US.

Now here’s the kicker, prior to this relationship, I was in the middle of moving overseas, to France specifically. I ended up canceling my visa and essentially throwing away all of my plans because I decided to get involved with this person. It is what it is, lesson learned.

I’m currently living in New York, which is where I’m from, and I’ve really come to see in the past year that I don’t want to live in New York City anymore. It’s not a healthy place, I can’t stay here for the sake of my mental health and nervous system. I really want to move back to Europe, that’s where I feel the most at home and most like myself.

I have this business that I’ve not yet launched, but I’m very close to the finish line and I’m not really sure how to navigate the logistical component of shipping and packing orders at this very early stage if I’m living in another country.

Is there anyone out there who has some experience of this firsthand, or possibly even some guidance?

Of course I know I could find a warehouse, but it’s such an early stage. I don’t feel that that’s wise.

Relocating from NYC

Hello all of you beautiful humans,

I am a born and raised New Yorker, and with the exception of one year living in London, my 38 year old self is ready to relocate away from NYC. Ultimately the goal is to move back to somewhere in Europe, but I've just started a business that I feel requires my physical presence here for a few more years.

I am single, have two plush boy cats, and while New York has everything at every time and is technically my homeland, I have had enough. My nervous system cannot handle one more siren or random 3 am sidewalk fight, or cheeseburger thrown at my head (true story).

Professionally I am a marketing executive and an adjunct professor, and can work remotely.

Originally I was considering Savannah but apparently the crime has increased so significantly, and then I thought perhaps California (I adore the Spanish-style historic homes). I don't know if I would be happy living in complete Suburbia, it may be a bit like The Shining for me, so proximity to human life and adult human men would be ideal. Somewhere where I could meet friends and develop a small social circle. My only real preference is the weather, no more snow ever, EVER.

Any thoughts on other places I should consider?

Moving to Savannah

Hi everyone,

I am planning to move to Savannah in September and I am in need of a home. I am looking for something in the historic district (but open to other areas), preferably an entire townhome with original details with 2+ bedrooms and outdoor space. I am not looking for an apartment.

I am open to buying or renting but I haven't found anything that has caught my attention. Is there anyone out there in the Reddit Savannah universe who has a friend/parent/sister's goldfishe's boyfriend who is looking to sublet/rent/sell?

Fingers crossed!
