Hello! My cat sitting work on the side has grown significantly over the last few years and I’d like to become insured.

🐈‍⬛ Any current cat sitters in the USA that have recommendations? Or advice on how you became an insured cat sitter?

🐾 Also did an LLC need to be created before you could be insured?

🐈 Does gaining licensure (where applicable) factor into becoming insured as a cat sitter?

🐟 Thank you for your advice and perspectives! 😸

General question across all professional sports. Are there any teams with a dinosaur mascot besides the Toronto Raptors?

If not, is there a reason why? Or have Dino mascots also gone extinct in professional sports?

Seeking community input! I have $282.03 left to use in my professional development budget. What should I spend it on?

Parameters:

- Can’t be something taking place after Thursday April 30th

Certifications I already have:

Completed:

✔️** WFA (NOLS**)

✔️** Stop the Bleed (American Academy of Surgeons**)

✔️** CPR & First Aid (Red Cross**)

Already enrolled:

- Risk Management for Outdoor Professionals certification (Viristar)

- Kayak, Canoe, SUP, and You (the Connected Paddler)

- CAPM (PMI)

- A bunch of CAPM prep classes (Udemy)

How would you spend the remaining funds in this limited time?! I want to try and use every Penny!

A certification I can carry forward would be ideal! Thanks for your input!

Edit for context: 15 years experience in the environmental conservation field. No graduate degree, have worked for major international nonprofits doing on the ground conservation restoration, education, research, or outreach. Want to move up to something at more of a manager or specialist role. Because I have the years of experience, presentations, panel features, even donor engagement and solicitation for over $15k in major gifts for the program I managed. Undergrad degree is in Environmental Analysis and Policy. Career has definitely been more research and field focused than policy.
