He’s very cute and sweet to me. However, he is a feral cat that I got from the woods. He doesn’t respond to anyone but me. He needs to be able to go outside and play in the woods. To be frank, he doesn’t even want to be touched by anyone but me. I can’t put him into a shelter because nobody will adopt him. And he wouldn’t understand that. I’m afraid he would just be put to death. He’s only 10 years old. I don’t know what to do. The doctor says I have about six months to live. I wish I didn’t have to leave him behind. His name is Boggles.

No one can adopt him. He wouldn’t understand that or respond to it.

I have no other family but him. It breaks my heart to think that his only owner would leave him suddenly.

This is not an adoption request. He doesn’t like other cats. He doesn’t like other people. He doesn’t like children. He doesn’t like dogs. He doesn’t like anybody but me. He’s mean to everyone except me. That made me feel special until I got my diagnosis. To everyone else he’s just a mean, weird cat. But to me, when we are sleeping next to each other, he’s my buddy. I’m worried what will happen when I’m not there to take care of him.

Only two things I can think about is to anesthetize him prematurely before I die, or just let him loose into the woods and hope he makes his way.

Just writing this is breaking my heart.

Please advise.

I am shattered and I can’t stop crying.

Yesterday my husband took our two cats to the vet for blood work for my cat Idris so she could come in for a teeth cleaning and my other cat Pinecone just needed some vaccines. I was at home with out daughter and the visit was taking a long time. He text me and told me that she was super distressed (like she often is at the vet, especially with bloodwork) so they wanted to observe her until she calmed down. Well, she did with a bit of sedation but she still wasn’t breathing properly. They did an xray and found her lungs full of fluid and cancer. They put her down right there while I wasn’t there. She was only 10 and seemed fine. She was my little cuddly stalker, often following me around the house just to see where I was sitting down next. When he came home and I asked where Idris was, he started crying and told me. It still doesn’t feel real. She was sitting on me this time yesterday. I miss her so much and I don’t know how to cope.

A Substack investigation claims Florida's 2024 election results were manipulated, based on two main findings:

1. The Amendment 4 math — Florida's abortion rights amendment needed 60% to pass and fell just short at 57.2%. The writer argues the total "Yes" votes needed to hit exactly 60% matches the state's total early vote count for registered Republicans and Democrats to the exact digit — two figures that should have no relationship to each other.
2. "Burke County" — A county that doesn't exist appeared in election night reporting feeds at 7:31pm containing approximately 6.3 million votes. The article argues the vote totals within it match Florida's early ballot figures exactly, and that the maths shows Harris's certified state total can be derived entirely from that vote bank.
3. Before Election Day, Florida law requires all mail-in and early in-person votes to be entered into the Election Management System by 7pm on November 4th — the day before Election Day. This means the total early vote figure (6,371,645) was a known, fixed number sitting in the system before a single Election Day ballot was cast. What the article alleges happened Rather than real votes flowing in from Florida's 67 actual counties, the author argues that this pre-known total was loaded into a single fictional data entry — "Burke County" — and used as a pool to distribute votes between candidates in predetermined proportions.
4. Think of it like a spreadsheet: instead of 67 rows of real county data adding up to a total, someone allegedly created one master row containing the answer they wanted, then worked backwards to make the individual county figures fit. Why "Burke County" matters When the article's author adds up all the presidential candidate votes attributed to Burke County and accounts for minor candidates, the total comes to exactly 6,371,645 — the same early vote figure. The argument is that this is statistically impossible by coincidence, because those two numbers should have no relationship to each other whatsoever.

The author concludes the results were predetermined and calls on state legislators and attorneys general to investigate. The article also references similar "ghost county" anomalies in swing states and draws a comparison to alleged Republican vote routing in the 2004 Ohio election.

What do you think?

I heard him screaming from almost half a kilometre away and instinctively got up from my couch and went searching for the crying noises. Found him in a standoff with a bigger male cat with some scratches. Called to him and he immediately ran and took cover behind me. 5 months later and all vaccinations completed he’s now the best cat ever!
