Multi-cat rfid adjustment

Multi-cat rfid adjustment

Hi! I’m struggling to adjust two of my cats to the rfid feeders. This is my current setup. One understands how it works but won’t use it she’ll just act like she has no food. The other one is wary of the lid opening and closing and doesn’t seem to understand that his food is in there or just doesn’t care and wants a regular bowl of food. I was taking the regular food bowls and putting them on the rfid reader so when they eat the lids would open and close and that got my one cat used to the lid but he still doesn’t care about the food in the bowl unless I have the lid on permanently open. I’ve been switching between having the regular bowls on the feeders and leaving the lids on the feeders completely open. Once they’re closed it’s like it doesn’t exist. I do have one cat who completely understands and uses her feeder exactly how she’s supposed to and I was hoping they’d follow suit. Any advice is appreciated! Sorry if this has already been asked.

Struggling in class

I am currently in a 5 week phlebotomy course, we are at the start of our third week and I am struggling so much with remembering all the steps. We only have 7 days left because we go 3 days a week and I feel like I’m not ready, I consistently forget to grab the gauze and to pull the tourniquet off. I’ve only done around 6 blood draws with a straight needle and about 7 with the butterfly. We practice on each other during class and I have to get 4 blood draws or more every single day that we go. I’m just nervous because I am constantly messing up my blood draws with only 2 fully successful ones where I did not miss a step. Mainly I forget the parts after the blood draw but I do fine when I insert the needle and with drawing the blood. Please tell me it gets better and easier to remember because I am so nervous to get a job.

Hi! I have completed majority of my prerequisites at a local community college but I have to transfer to another community college for the actual program. I have two main options for rad tech programs near me. The first has 24 seats available a semester and I meet all their prerequisite requirements, they also have an agreement with my current community college to keep me at clinical sites in my area. The second program requires one prerequisite only they offer and only in the winter. Their program has 15 seats available each semester. I jobshadowed at a nearby hospital and the tech I shadowed said the second program students are much better prepared and more knowledgeable than the other program. They also have employers that specifically seek out students from this second program. I'm just wondering if anyone thinks it's worth my time and money to pay for the last prerequisite of the second program so I can apply to both or if it will even make a difference in the long run.
