It’s been my dream to own a little female Ragdoll kitten. I know these cats are not the best breed for allergy sufferers, but I am determined to get one and keep the cat and myself happy. I was wondering if bathing the cat would help at all? It’s usually my eyes that become red and itchy and sometimes my throat. If I bathed the cat once a month, brushed the cat every other day, and took Zyrtec daily would I be fine? I don’t want to get the cat only find that it won’t work out. For some reason I have no reaction to my neighbor’s shorthair mix. I just wash my hands after I’m done petting him. Any advice?
PS- no rude answers please and your help is greatly appreciated!

I posted something on here earlier saying how my rat has gone from a perfectly healthy rat till almost dead. I don’t know what has caused it but i know shes severely inbred. I’m devastated. Truly.
She has just started bleeding heavily from her vagina. I have taken her away from the others, given her baytril (a painkiller and antibiotic), food, water and science recovery which has lots of vitamins. All in all she seems calm and all she wants to do is sleep.
I cannot do anything about it at this time of night but is bleeding to death a painful process or is she likely to pass away peacefully in her sleep?

I am also taking prenatal vitamins.
Is it okay if im not eating that much meat, or do I need it?
5 stars for best answer! Thanks

They have a “contact us” option, but there’s no way of to contact them. There’s a “Log In” option, but no way to create an account, which is fine, I don’t want to create an account. I just want to leave them a comment about their pharmaceutical packaging.
The package is distributed by Walmart Pharmacy, they are changing their little orange bottles of prescriptions to these lousy packages, they’re big, bulky, you have to pull tabs to get the foil wrapped pills out & its a mess & must cost so much more then the old bottles. When I complained at Walmart, they said its the manufacturers packaging now.
So how do I complain or just leave INVAGEN feedback? Anyone know? Any help will be appreciated!
Thank you!!!

I’ve made a lot of MISTAKES recently,I took my dad’s NEW Tahoe hybrid for a drive because he took my car away from me, I drove it to the mall to go shopping and when I came out of the mall there was a dent near the bumper. To make things worse, he’s a police officer and I am already grounded because I threw a party while my parents were out of town and I have also gotten a few tickets.
HELP ME I’m soo upset now my dad came home a couple of nights ago after work, and started screaming at me and was REALLY pissed about everything, and To make it worse, I started screaming at him and he grounded me until NOVEMBER . He didn’t leave so I pushed him and that really got him angry and he just radioed one of his co-workers. I want to be close to my dad like I used to be.
I also had a party while my parents were gone and my dad said Mario (also a police officer) and family friend would come and check on me I didn’t believe my dad but sure enough he did come and I was drunk it was bad. He hates me and it makes me cry, I don’t understand why he’s being so hurtful.ADDED TIDBIT: I’m SIXTEEN.I tried apologizing but my daddy is just ignoring me right now, it hurts me.
I don’t have any issues with my mom just my dad sometimes, also tonight he is drug testing me because he is kind of suspicious and want’s to make sure I’m clean, but I smoked recently.

…a little nervous

Im 18, as of 2 months ago i was very strong and healthy. Until one day i was driving and got hit with the weirdest wave of tingles. Suddenly my heart started racing faster than I have ever felt. I immediately pulled over and called 911 becuase i thought i was having a heart attack. About three minutes later the episode stoped. I thought it must have been a freak anxiety attack or a really sudden drop in my blood sugar ( i have hypoglycemia) Well after i went to the E.R they reffered me to a Cardiologist. They put my on a holter moniter and picked up another attack of svt. So the Doc. diagnosed me with Svt and perscribed me Diltiazem, I didnt take the pills for about 2 weeks for fear of having side effects. When I finally decided to take it, it lower my bp for a little but after about 3 hours, my bp shot up to 160 over 100. Which scared me horribly and i went into a panic attack-which im not quiet sure if it was svt or panic but i was deffinately panicing. About 3 hours before the medicines’ time was up i felt a huge relief and i felt i was returning to normal. Ever since the original SVT i have had major problems with anxiety and panic. Here is where my question really comes in. A day ago i had a heart palpitation and i felt my pulse increase and some pressure in my head. I assuming I was heading into an SVT episode. But it never happened., instead my heart stayed at about 90 bpm and has lasted till tonight, im currently still at 90 bpm. I have read that hyperthyroidism can accelerate your heart rate. My symptoms I have rececently contracted almost fit hyperthyroidism perfectly, they are- feeling hot at random times, sometimes i feel like I have a fever but everyone says I don’t. it seems as though im always sweating, Ive had a HUGE increase in my appeite. Increased bowel movements, constant anxiety and panic, heart palpitations, headaches sometimes, a slight hand tremor, constant lethargy, and I have even noticed the englarging of my thryroid. I can bend my neck back and swallow and see the outline of the “butterfly” form of the thyroid, I have also lost weight. If anyone has any experiences at all with these type of symptoms i would love to know what yours are like. Can svt be a sign of hyperthyroidism? and by the way. Ever since i was about 12 or 13 ive had palpitations and anxiety and excessive sweating. It sounds so much like hyperthyroidism to me but i can’t be sure. More or less I would just love anyone’s opinion on if my symptoms could be related. Or if SVT could make me feel all these symptoms. Help please, im just trying not to lose my mind.
Thank you

I was watching a commercial for a pain reliever on TV, and it occurred to me that, given God’s all-knowing nature, and all of the pain in the world, that he might have, in his infinite wisdom, purchased a lot of the stock. After all, he seems to have designed us with a whole lot of pain.
I realize that pain serves a very important function, so please don’t lecture me on that. However, for a family member of mine, who has suffered from chronic pain for a good part of her life, the pain IS the problem. It serves no function other than to make her miserable.
So, I hope his holiness invested wisely. Too bad the drug companies weren’t around when Jesus walked the earth. I know Jesus seemed to favor the poor, and was somewhat distrustful of the rich, but given all of the Christians that want to be rich, Jesus must have had it wrong. There is nothing wrong with being a Christian and being filthy rich,is there?
