Got a demo 2025 Q5 at 6000km. Haven’t had the car 1 year yet and it already needs new brake pads? It only has 18000km on it. Is this normal ??

Also, how much longer can I drive? I have an appointment on Tuesday but need to drive ~500km before then. Will it be ok?

Edit: car is on a lease and under 4 year warranty
TIA!

Adopted a stray 2 weeks ago. It’s been nail biting. Ireland(resident cat 2YO, F, Scottish Fold X Maine Coon) Luxembourg (calico, ~1 YO, F, former stray) is afraid of everything. Ireland is territorial and playful and will chase Luxembourg until she’s hiding under the bed for 10 business days. OR Ireland will plop down next to her and take a nap 1 feet away. Ireland will stare and sometimes chase playfully but it terrifies Luxembourg. OR if she’s well behaved, she stares and resume cat things. Luxembourg will explore at 3am when Ireland is asleep and will sleep in bed with us but does not enjoy to be near us when we’re awake. Luxembourg is extremely skittish, was trapped twice and am unsure of her living condition prior. When she was a stray, she loved to be chased but now indoors all she does is hide.

Luxembourg does not play or scratch just hides and explores. When I reward them for calm behaviour. Ireland sometimes hisses or swats Luxembourg even though they both got a treat. I’ve been playing with Ireland for 15 minutes 3 times a day with Wands and puzzles and redirect when the stare gets too much.

What are some advice to help Luxembourg build confidence and how do I get Ireland to stop scaring Luxembourg. The anxiety is a lot and keeping me up at night just incase they get into a fight at night. Which has only happened twice and that was at the very beginning.

Hello, can someone help me ID this moss that’s growing on felt on my living wall? And also how to keep it at bay as I’m afraid it’s gonna suck up all the nutrients from the plants.

Bought some Sinella Curviseta spring tails to help control algae on my vertical grow wall that is made of felt. But they don’t seem to be eating any. They’re definitely there I see plenty of them near. Any advice or is there another cultivar that would be more beneficial? Thank you

Top 2 is the shape we want. But somehow I keep getting bottom 2 shape. Please tell me what I’m doing no wrong. I am at wits end. Pattern attached. Thank you!
