There's so many homeless kittens and cats in my neighbourhood including a pregnant momma cat so tonight me & my boyfriend have to set out traps and watch them. We don't wanna accidentally get a raccoon or skunk lmao. Momma cat & her kittens meow at my door sometimes and then run away when I try to bring them inside so I just leave food out for them. The shelter is gonna get them all spayed/neutered & adopted so hopefully this all goes smoothly.

Obviously the traps are humane so don't worry about that lol.

THIS^^^^^^^^^^ (minus the raccoons and skunks and boyfriend) Where I live, most people do not get any care for their animals and just let them roam free, breed, and wreak havoc. It's on a scale that's just...not okay. My parents' yard alone has sustained thousands of dollars of damage from outdoor cats people refuse to keep indoors, and they say it's not their cat or it never leaves their house which is a lie. Last year there was even a human death about a half hour away from me, where a pack of dogs chased down a fully grown man. I think you should have to take a test or have a license or something to own animals, imo. /rant

Wow sounds like your city might be worse for stray pets! Sorry about your neighbours letting their cats breed freely, it causes a chain reaction issue for kittens. I've never seen a stray dog here before though but the cats are another story. At least the animal shelter comes out straight away if I call and it's guaranteed none of the cats will be put down so I don't have to worry about that.

No luck catching momma cat by the way. Just 1 pissed off neighbourhood cat tempted by the sardines that I released right away. Poor guy was howling.

It's the general area I think since it's a lot of farming and rural areas too. There are good pet owners around, don't get me wrong! Thankfully after some incidents where people were hurt/killed by packs of dogs roaming free, it seems to have gotten a little bit better but not much. The main problem we have is people trying to dump them in the country (horrible stuff I won't go into with this btw). Our town doesn't even have animal control as they're super under-funded and just...no one wants to do it. They just assign a random sheriff, usually (in my specific town).

Sadly here, it's the other way around as far as animals being put down in shelters. Granted, if they're socialized or are young, they're much more likely to be adopted, but...well, yeah. It's horrible and sad that people just don't care or view animals as living things, or as having any feelings. The biggest problem though has to be the cats, for sure. They just keep breeding all over the place and people don't bother to do anything about it and they end up dead as a result most of the time. Aw, sorry you didn't catch momma cat, I've been there, done that!

I'm such an advocate for animals and pets, sorry I went off on a tangent there. I just wish people cared enough to be educated about animal husbandry more than they do. Good luck to you! =^.^=

Today I had a mental break down from all the millions of assignments I had for online school! Anyways how was your day?:D(y)
 
I am so excited for the fall season to officially start tomorrow! Fall is my favorite season both in and out of AC. There’s this one apple orchard about an hour and a half from where I live that basically embodies fall. While most of what made it awesome won’t exist in this current climate (there were samples of the food they sold literally EVERYWHERE) I still have very fond memories of it.
 
So I finally caught all of the fish, insects, and sea creatures in ACNH and have them donated to the museum. The only exhibition left to complete is the art exhibition. Granted, I did obtain them by time traveling, but I rather get it done as soon as I can than wait for months.
 
I can't find a decent shaped cloud anywhere for the photo challenge but the moon decided to come hang out mid day. Go away moon I need clouds.

May have to go to oral surgeon; NOT looking forward to it!:(
 
So I have beaten Super Mario Galaxy from Super Mario 3D All Stars (like 100% it). I may not enjoy it as much as Super Mario 64 or Super Mario Sunshine, but compared to the other Mario games, its porting to the Switch was handled better than the others. The fact I don’t have to use motion controls is why Nintendo did that one right.

Now if I had to rank the galaxies from best to worst, it would be:

1. Freezeflame Galaxy
2. Dusty Dune Galaxy
3. Beach Bowl Galaxy
4. Good Egg Galaxy
5. Gold Leaf Galaxy
6. Honeyhive Galaxy
7. Ghostly Galaxy
8. Sea Slide Galaxy
9. Toy Time Galaxy
10. Battlerock Galaxy
11. Gusty Garden Galaxy
12. Deep Dark Galaxy
13. Melty Molten Galaxy
14. Space Junk Galaxy
15. Dreadnought Galaxy

From the top three, Freezeflame Galaxy had actual platforming like Tick Tock Clock (at least in the ice world) while Dusty Dune Galaxy had 7 actual challenges opposed to 6. Beach Bowl Galaxy was actually the first galaxy that I really enjoyed for that it didn’t overly rely on the gravity mechanic. It also had the best comet missions in SMG.

From the bottom three, I thought Melty Molten Galaxy and (especially) Dreadnought Galaxy were too hard, even for someone as talented as I am. And Space Junk Galaxy is too generic and too reliant on gravity.
 
I'm not planning on voting for Trump or Biden but I am kinda curious to see how the debate goes. I might watch a bit of it.
