I mean, it sucks for the cat and the neighborhood, I’m glad that where I live there are a few very friendly outdoor cats and I’ve always seen people nail the brakes to avoid them the few times they cross the road.

I also understand that autonomous cars kind of need more work, but real drivers also really suck at driving. I wonder if the ire here is more at “who do we blame if no driver”

Also also, I wonder if electric cars are going to cause a lot more issues for outdoor animals who to some extend get trained to listen for a Hrududu which the electric motors don’t make.

You never saw a video where someone cleans up their partner after the good time?

If anyone was still paying attention, she was eating the rice and chicken pretty well, them about three days back she just refused to eat anything at all.

She passed away last night.

Steamed chicken and rice with beans was the meal today

I landed on white rice, chicken breast and black beans with a tablespoon or two of just vegetable oil for a fat. Figured it was a fairly balanced carb/protein/lipid mixture in addition to whatever dry food I mix into it. Zero salt added, she is munching away currently. Next time I get to the store I will get some low sodium broth to mix into the rice and beans while they cook to soak it up.

She has cancer actually, on her neck but the vet wasn’t confident on the operation success with its location and her age, so she has kind of just been dealing with it for the last year. I am sure it is a major factor in addition to just being old.

Good call, not sure why I didn’t think about soup over water for soaking.

Vet has looked at her a number of times, they gave her an appetite booster even which got her eating for about a day. So far as they can tell she is healthy, but old.
