It was just a question about sodium carbonate.

I'm outraged that this was not more interesting! Don't you feel your responsibility to entertain the people on this board with something controversial?

I mean, I am sitting here needing a distraction from my son's cat giving birth and there you go posting dull questions about sodium carbonate.

I'm hurt. Deeply hurt.

You missed a chance at some drama.  "I was being chased by Bigfoot and couldn't remember if I should freeze, climb a tree, or stand my ground and look "big".  Before anyone replied I went with introducing myself and we had a short chat.  Nice guy."

You’re right. I can be so dead pan.

She seems to have stalled. Shes on a blanket in the sunroom and we're waiting. I'm a little nervous because this cat is so. dumb.

However, we've had lots of cats give birth and never a problem. 

(one exciting thing is that my dh brought home all kinds of blankets and quilts from his late mother's house. I was not able to get rid of any them because "we might need them someday." There's this horrible polyester, chenille blanket that nobody can stand to touch. The feel of it just makes my skin crawl.  So the cat is giving birth on this awful quilt and I will be able to throw. it. away. CHEERS!

Hope dumb Mama Cat is okay.  We had a dumb stray show up on our doorstep and run into our house obviously starving to death.  Took her to have her spayed and she turned out to be pregnant.  She was a good mother, and we wound up keeping one of the kittens, but honestly, the kittens were not all that bright.  We kept the brightest one from the litter, and she's still pretty dim.  But sweet.  

We could not keep Mama Cat because she tried to kill our other cats, but we found her a home.

We need an update with pictures. Hope all is well with dumb mama and kittens.

Okay ya'll, sorry for the delay. I was doing funeral stuff today. My son's buddy's dad passed unexpectedly over the weekend, so me and some other ladies were at my church preparing for a meal, and then funeral, and then serving. It was sad.

ANNNNDDDD...

Po (the cat) I think miscarried. She acted in labor all day, and had bloody liquid on her bottom and legs. Then she passed a small clump of reddish tissue, which she ate. Then she slept most of the rest of yesterday. So that was disappointing, but we're glad Po's okay. Poor kitty. She was so uncomfortable yesterday.

And I don't get to throw away that darn blanket yet.

I bet you eschew glazed crockpots and make people take their shoes off at the door too!

Of course she does. OF COURSE.

NO [non-medically indicated] SHOES IN THE HOUSE. 🚫👟🏠
