judging by the girth of those kittehs it seems like the need to use it moar often.
They use it all the time, they are fairly active and eat less than their recommended dosage of food. Seriously don't get why they are so big. I mean they are on a weight loss diet but even if they drop a pound or 2 they will never be small. The bigger one was 10lbs at 5 months old.

Headed home today. We've paid $45 a night for our Embassy Suites stay thanks to an insider hookup. We also got coupons for 16 free bar drinks, which will unfortunately go unused.

Made some progress on the car shopping dilemma late last night. Decent used cars are absurdly expensive. Not any significant savings over buying new. Going to venture out to a few dealerships this afternoon to paw at: a Honda CR-V, a Toyota Rav4 and a Ford Bronco Sport.

Wonder if pulling up to the lot in a BMW will immediately disqualify me for any kind of discount ?:rofl:

Did a similar comparison a month ago. Couldn’t be happier with our CRV.

Keep in mind - the Bronco and the Bronco Sport are about as similar to one another as tomatoes and aliens. That being said... I think I'd avoid both like the plague.

SIL's CRV apparently shit the bed a couple days ago. It was 17 years old and I suspect may not have always been as well taken care of as it could have been. Interestingly though, the thing(s) that "shit the bed" are the ignition and the door locks. I asked the SIL if she was positive she just didn't need to have a new key made, she's convinced the entire ignition system and all the door locks are the problem. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Entire systems rarely fail, your mechanic may not want you to know that.
