To be fair, they started developing symptoms much later then when we took care of them. But yeah, we had a lot of cats in the years, 90% of them were strays (or in this case, one of them was actually kicked of their house and spent some years outside) that self-tamed over time lol.

We had two stray cats, one was confirmed FIV+, the other not, they didn’t really get any recurring infection, but they both started having the same neurological symptoms: they lost control of their back legs and sphincters, had trouble walking straight and cleaning themselves so we had to do it.
I don’t know if this is a regular outcome of FIV, or if it’s even related at all, but you might want to look for gradual problems with walking and balance. Not much you can do unfortunately, but what I can tell you is they don’t get any less loving, actually, they probably get more. His last days one of the strays went from barely staying close to a human unless being fed, to purr, pets and constant headbutts.
Good luck with your little fella, glad he could find a caring home.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why are people like my son's girlfriend so obsessed with jailbreaking?
92·6 months ago- doing things you are not supposed to do is fun
- thinkering with electronics in fun
- we are sacrificing our freedom to megacorporations that continously tell us what to do, what to think, what you can and can’t do with devices we own and enshittify them. Taking back some of that freedom feels good
Totally worth it
That’s one chonky little angel.
I’m guessing it’s fluffier than anything I’ve ever touched.

2·6 months agoThank you for your love. Glad he could warm your week :) he surely made a lot of people happier.
I’m doing ok. Loosing a furry friend is tough, but (unfortunately) I lost many in my years so I can deal with it. The only bad things about pets is that they always leave too soon.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•2 women who made my life unbearable at my last workplace now greet me like nothing happened. Has this happened to you before?
2·6 months agoYes, it’s normal, or at least it’s not super unusual. People can be the meanest to your face and then pretend that nothing happened. Is it because they are ashamed of themselves? Because they want to pretend that nothing happened and hope you won’t bring it up? Because they want to maintain happearances in front of others? Are they trying to gaslight you? I don’t know, but it did happen to me and to other people I know.

cats@lemmy.world•Tonight I lost my big boy due to a sudden pneumonia :(
37·6 months agoThank you ❤️. He came to our home more than 5 years ago, already adult. He was most likely a house cat that was left on the street for some reason: in realively good health, but a little skinnier, neutered, but not chipped and every human he encountered he would ask for pets, even complete strangers. For some reason he licked and playfully bite like dogs when petting him.
Once we found him in front of the train station, he was just sitting there taking pets from random commuters coming in and out of the station. He was really precious and a bit needy of love, we gave him all we could.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If president abductions are something that can apparently just happen how come Putin or Kim Jong Un aren't in some foreign prison right now?
9·6 months ago- the US most likely had inside help, Venezuela being less hostile towards them than China or Russia it was probably easy to convince people
- head of states of China, Russia and North Korea are much more likely to expect such attacks and have probably more resources to spend on personal protection and armies. Putin is notoriously paranoid and it’s difficult to locate because he spends a lot of reaources to hide
- as others said, those countries have nukes

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What programming language would you recommend for teaching to non-technical people that use a variety of different OSes?
4·7 months agoI don’t know, my experience with python is “sudo apt install python3” on linux and “download the installer on windows and run it”, I see many comments mentionting python difficilt to install but I really can’t see why

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What programming language would you recommend for teaching to non-technical people that use a variety of different OSes?
23·7 months agoC is full of complex paradigms and low level details that are great if you’re learning computer architectures, but pretty bad if it’s your first languages.
Python in the other hand is great to learn programming practices and for quick, non-optimized, easy scripts. I think it’s less suited for more complex projects, but that’s another thing. I honestly fon’t think it’s a great language, but it’s easy to use and has pretty much a library for everything, that’s why I think it’s good to start and for simple things.
Java is also quite high level, so also good for beginners, but I’ve never used it so I don’t know how easy is to setup (python is) and how easy it is to download dependencies (on python it is).
For your case I would say Python is best.
Investing safe will small dividends but high safety is not as difficult as it seems. You can get a mix of: • state bonds • big ETF collection that basically never got in red since their beginning 10+ years ago • some bank accounts even give you a small 2/3% just by leaving the money there. Not the best but it’s better than nothing

Not only that, usually lettinf people out fully and then going is is faster than getting all crammed and sruck trying to enter.
