I'm not sure, if I hit the flair spot on, or not, but I have this medium-longhair lynx point girl, approx 2 months old. I was checking her for ringworm with shortwave UV and all her undercoat fluoresces orange. I've never seen this before, neither has my vet. WHY DOES SHE GLOW LIKE A FANCY ROCK? I've looked closer, it's not the skin, the skin remains blueish/normal colour
I've had this plot of land for around 15 years, years ago the sour cherries were doing great, now they're just sad. Soil type is decent black dirt on shallow limestone bedrock. Is it the alkaline soil or possible pests. This year is nothing like the previous ones...
With-without flash. The yellowish discolouration is from black nailpolish. I had too loose fitting shoes while going down a steep embankment and this was the result. My other big toenail is less purple, but still is funky
My boy has been diagnosed with arthritis, kidney failure(+prone to bladder sand/stones) and hyperthyroidism. Getting scheduled vet visits. It's a meh condition despite whichever is cured. First pic is him(middle) 5 years ago. The third eyelid showing has been normal through his life(I delivered him, but didn't own for 8 years). Last 2 are today on his 16th birthday. I can see he hurts or has difficulties even on painkillers and oddly enough the kidney function and hyperthyroidism back n forth seems more managed than the arthritis. In general he gets around and is affectionate, purrs loads. He's very much underweight and in the skin and bones category, but with his issues nothing seems to work to put on any weight. So hence the hard question: is it time?
In Europe, Estonia. I have an old shabby wooden shed(roughly 20sqm) that will need demolotion/replacing in a year or 2, the siding has rotten away in places near the roof, leaving holes to the inside. I have a plastic bag hanging on a hook filled almost to the top with who remembers what, maybe other bags, maybe veil- something gardening related. A bird, that I believe is a robin has built a nest containing roughly 8 eggs inside that plastic bag. My garden + shed are on a separate property from my home, so the shed is always locked. Found the nest some 4 days ago, because the bird suddenly flew out and scared me.
Anyway to the actual question or topic at hand: the openings in the shed siding wall are rather high up and not near the bag/nest. I don't think the birds once they fledge can get out... Despite Estonia being a safe country, I can't leave the door open when I'm not there, to protect my gardening tools. So when they fledge, do I just leave the door open during the day any hope they all get out or do I have to catch them and put them outside? Any advice and suggestions are welcome to prepare me for whatever awaits me in a few weeks :)
