Don't watch any Dogs Trust rehoming drive videos!
:(
I've had cats (some indoor) for over ten years so am hoping I am already immune. I wear gloves, wash (and shower) after and use special wellies etc. But still can't shake the fear. Mine have an enclosure that requires a once weekly deep clean, and I dread going in. I was considering maybe paying a student cash in hand to do it once a week. I know I'd have done it for drinks money when I was at college! Pet food and pet sitter already eat into wages - TA the responsibility of animals and how much they cost!:P
Actually another TA, working with someone who just came back from mat leave who was also obsessed with toxoplasmosis and keeps telling me it can be air borne! She doesn't even know my news yet, why is she talking to me about this!? Stop talking!
Ah you poor thing, all that worrying isn't great for the stress levels. I'd tell the colleague to shut it a couple of levels, that would drive me insane and there's no need for it. Hopefully she'll be more sensitive when she's in the know.
I think paying the student (even a secondary student would love the extra cash!) is a great idea because of the worry it'll save you. Go for it and let yourself relax a little
We recently adopted an elderly doggy and between his diet and his arthritis meds and our regular check ins, the cost really does add up. Our remaining cat is like a bargain by comparison!0 -

You probably have thought of this, but in case, if you contact post primary schools that do further education classes in veterinary nursing or pre veterinary, they will have enthusiastic students who would have time off to help and would love a pet parent ref for college."Have you ever wagged your tail so hard you fell over"?-Brod Higgins.

Record second episode tmw on BBC 1 then you only have to sit through half the amount of adds on Wednesday.... I think there's episode 3 and 4 also. I was too busy having a strop resetting everything to fully pay attention.
No I couldn't even treat it as a comedy 0 -

I bought new glasses for €239 in Specsavers in July and I can't wear them.
I've had them loosened, tightened, all sorts done to them, but no matter what, I get pressure pains on my ears and end up with a splitting headache within an hour.
Its like the arms of the glasses are too short for my ears and aren't sitting right, but they've been so unhelpful. They're blaming the shape of my head and saying they can do no more.
Such a waste of money and I'm stuck wearing my old ones, of which the prescription isn't strong enough. Extremely TA'd.0 -

Id persist with this. They are at fault for bad measurement regardless of head shape. Id get back onto management of the store. Hope you get somewhere with it.0 -

If your old ones were a comfortable fit then the shape of your head has nothing to do with the problem. I agree 're. keeping on to this. If they're not fit for purpose you should at least be refunded.
Ta the good old splitting open spaghetti package. They could just as easily package dry goods in brown paper anyway. Unwrapping excess plastic takes as long as doing the online shopping.0 -

Could be a difference in the temple length, this is normally written on the glasses
