Exploring Trends Shaping the Animal Care Market
Tumblr media
The Animal Care Market is undergoing significant transformations driven by evolving consumer preferences, technological advancements, and emerging trends. In this article, we delve into the latest trends shaping the landscape of the animal care industry and their implications for market players.
Humanization of Pets: Treating Pets like Family
One of the prominent trends in the animal care market is the increasing humanization of pets. Pet owners are treating their animals more like family members, seeking products and services that cater to their pets' health, comfort, and emotional well-being. This trend has led to a growing demand for premium pet food, grooming services, and accessories designed to enhance the quality of life for companion animals.
Natural and Organic Products: A Shift towards Healthier Options
Consumers are becoming more conscious about the ingredients and materials used in pet care products, leading to a surge in demand for natural and organic alternatives. Pet owners are seeking products free from artificial additives, preservatives, and chemicals, opting instead for wholesome and sustainable options that promote the health and vitality of their pets. This trend has propelled the growth of natural pet food, eco-friendly toys, and biodegradable pet accessories in the market.
Telemedicine and Remote Veterinary Care: Convenient Healthcare Solutions
Advancements in technology have revolutionized the way veterinary care is delivered, with the adoption of telemedicine and remote monitoring solutions gaining traction in the animal care industry. Pet owners are increasingly turning to virtual consultations, telehealth platforms, and mobile apps to seek medical advice, diagnosis, and treatment for their pets, especially amid the COVID-19 pandemic. This trend has expanded access to veterinary services, improved convenience for pet owners, and facilitated early detection and intervention for pet health issues.
Personalized Nutrition and Wellness: Tailoring Care for Individual Pets
Pet owners are embracing personalized approaches to pet nutrition and wellness, recognizing that each animal has unique dietary and health needs. The demand for customized pet food formulations, tailored supplementation, and genetic testing services is on the rise as pet owners seek to optimize their pets' health and longevity. This trend has spurred innovation in the development of personalized pet nutrition plans, DNA testing kits, and health monitoring tools that cater to individual pets' requirements.
Sustainable and Ethical Practices
Environmental sustainability and ethical sourcing have become key considerations for pet owners when choosing products and services for their animals. There is a growing emphasis on eco-friendly packaging, cruelty-free ingredients, and ethical manufacturing practices in the animal care market. Companies are increasingly adopting sustainable initiatives, such as carbon-neutral operations, recyclable packaging, and ethical sourcing of raw materials, to align with consumer values and reduce their environmental impact.
Conclusion
The animal care market is evolving rapidly, driven by shifting consumer preferences, technological innovations, and societal trends. By staying attuned to these emerging trends and embracing innovation, companies can capitalize on new opportunities, differentiate their offerings, and meet the evolving needs of pet owners and their beloved companions. As the bond between humans and animals continues to strengthen, the animal care industry is poised for continued growth and transformation in the years to come.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
just a few scribbles of Cafe Owner!Reader x Yandere Dog!Gallagher. Honestly kinda wanna steal her away from Gallagher she's such a calming presence in my mind wijdjwks
Quick fluff-ish brainrots for an upcoming "WhoDrankIt?" (tentative title) coffee shop comic au utc. (cw: slight mentions of animal cruelty)
And no I'm not spoiling why cafe owner!reader went missing or any other major plotlines in these brainrots lmao
Kakavasha and Reader are very close friends ever since they heard each other complain about how hard getting a visa is lmao. The two of them admire each other's love for their family.
In this au, Kakavasha's family lives and he's happily venturing out to work for his parents' more smooth sailing retirement like his older sister. (Y/n), meanwhile, works abroad so she could be the breadwinner of her impoverished family. In a sense, they're very similar.
The two corporate slaves coworkers, Kakavasha and Jelena (Topaz) are regulars in (Y/n)'s cafe. Professor Veritas would sometimes drop by, not too often, to drink some herbal tea. Often claiming his visits are in moderation compared to Jelena, but when looking at the records in his bank account...
The three of them rarely pay by cash. Thankfully buying a card reader was a worthy investment...
(Y/n) just takes Gallagher to the cafe so he doesn't get too lonely at home.
And it's not a bad move. Gallagher is incredibly friendly, often mistaken as an actual cafe staff. He claims he is, but (Y/n) would correct people pronto. When Gallagher first met Firefly and Caelus, he immediately introduced himself as the cafe's security personnel... Which later earned him a proper taxi back home.
No matter how eager he is, (Y/n) really doesn't want people to think she's forcing her dog to work... Especially such an older looking one...
When getting pissed, (Y/n) would sometimes go to the backdoor just to heartily scream obscenities in a foreign language before coming back with a customer service smile. Gallagher thinks it's incredibly hilarious whenever she screams "HAYOP KA!" (you animal!) at the garbage bin.
Most of (Y/n)'s anger comes from her interactions with Sunday.
Won't go into detail to that yet but if their life was a fanfic, Jelena would tag it as "coffee shop au" and "enemies to ???"
Whenever (Y/n) gets too upset, it's Gallagher that brews something for her. 80% of the time, it goes on the menu. The other 20% are drinks Gallagher refuses to have anyone else taste but (Y/n). The recipes are also gatekept from her so she wouldn't try to tell it. Not that she would, anyways.
(Y/n) takes a very gentle approach to Gallagher. To her, he's no different than a roommate. Back home, it's common for poor families to neglect their pets- and that never sat right with her.
She still feels guilty about the time she had to watch her father abandon newborn kittens in a plastic bag because their family could no longer sustain them.
(Y/n) doesn't like recalling those memories. It's an era they couldn't help, given the economic decline. It's a period in her life where she's forced to mostly eat pure salt and boiled bananas due to their convenience rather than nutrition. Money was out of reach.
... She doesn't want any other creature to go through all that again.

Would a Chansey be a good pet?
Tumblr media
A chansey would, in fact, be an excellent pet! One of the best! This is a rare case in which, after calculating their score, the pokémon’s final number is higher than it was before considering the boons and penalties of their move set!
Perhaps the biggest downside to chanseys when it comes to pet ownership is their rarity. They are well known to be elusive and slick (Red/Blue, Gold), as well as small in number out in the wild (Silver), so they may be a hard pet to adopt, especially if you are looking at ethical means of adoption. However, if you did manage to adopt one, they would be one of the best pets you could have. They’re a bit on the larger size, but certainly nothing too unmanageable (though they would take up a lot of room on the couch!). Personality-wise, chanseys are kind-hearted, compassionate, and generous (Yellow, Diamond). They have a strong sense of other-people’s character as well: they don’t like to share their eggs with those they deem to have “evil in their hearts” (Pearl). So, as long as you don’t have evil in your heart (which I hope you don’t, beyond in an ironic sense), they will likely get along with you well.
Chanseys have a particular soft spot of the sick and injured (Diamond, Black/White), which is likely why they’re often seen helping out at medical facilities. They’re natural healers. The eggs that chanseys can almost always be seen carrying don’t serve a reproductive purpose; rather, chanseys offer them to those in need of healing as their nutritional value help with the natural healing process (Yellow). Chanceys lay multiple eggs a day (FireRed), and take special care to keep them from breaking or getting into the wrong hands (Gold, Pearl). If you have a close bond with your chansey, there’s a good chance (pun intended) that they would share their eggs with you. These eggs can be used to treat injuries or sickness, as I’ve already mentioned, but they also said to be delicious and are considered a high-class cooking ingredient (Ruby/Sapphire, Sword). In fact, these eggs may be used to treat issues with appetite, as they are said to be alluring even to those who aren’t feeling like eating (Ruby/Sapphire).
As far as their moves go, chanseys aren’t all that dangerous. Their small number of troubling moves like Double-Edge or Sing are vastly outweighed by their handful of healing abilities! Life Dew, Heal Pulse, and their signature move Soft-Boiled allow chanseys to heal both themselves and others. This would cut down not just on pet bills, but potentially your own doctor’s bills as well! People who are particularly prone to injury or illness could really benefit from having a chansey as a pet, or even as a service pokémon.
In totality, chanseys passes the pet test with flying colors. They are a pokémon that is well known to get along well with humans, and whose empathetic generosity could vastly improve the quality of life for many potential owners.

RANDOM ASTRO OBSERVATIONS
These observations are based upon my personal interactions with these placements and energies. As a wise woman I know once said "take what resonates and leave the rest on the shelf, go back to it later, see if it resonates again, if not, throw it away".
I dislike seeing people say in order to be an astrologer you have to have read a certain amount of charts, you have to have certain years of experience.
astrologer (n.)
late 14c., "an observer of the stars," from astrology + -er (1). It drove out French import astrologein, which, had it survived, probably would have yielded *astrologian, as in Chaucer's "The wise Astrologen." Also in Middle English in reference to cocks as announcers of sunrise.
astrologer | Etymology, origin and meaning of astrologer by etymonline
You are all astrologers because you study and observe the stars and never let anyone tell you you're not!
Having Neptune in the 6th house, you'll feel this need to be of service in your career in a healing/helping way whether it be people, pets, plants, you have to help in some way.
Neptune in 6th house natives need a career where they can be in control of their schedule because when it comes to sticking to a traditional routine, they absolutely neglect them. They don't pay attention to time; they don't even remember the date half the time lol. They really live in their own reality. They can easily get used because of their need to help and be of service to others. Meditation comes easy to them. Their job can affect their health if not's not allowing them to express their creativity, healing abilities, nurturing qualities, and spirituality. Great placement for MedSpa workers, nutritional dieticians, herbalists, life coaches, artists, etc.
Chiron conjunct Vertex are here to heal!!!!Life is going to constantly connect you with a lot of "broken" people and you have to ability to influence their inner healing. You will also meet a lot of wise people along the way and will feel like they are fated and meant to be. I've heard someone with this placement say, their Chiron is conjunct Vertex in Sagittarius, and their mentor is a Sagittarius and has taught her so many life changing health habits, life habits, and much more. She said, "It feels like an action movie where the hero is fighting the villain and he's the guru or guide leading her along the way", I was like wow.
3H Mercury, especially in air signs love learning. I've seen them studying and they weren't even in school, they just value information.
Cancer moons never forget anything, watch what you say and do to them.
Anybody else find Virgo risings extremely private about information about them but knowledgeable about how to fix and heal everyone else? Hmm, probably that Scorpio 3H.
Libra moon and risings have to look good out in public, it doesn't matter the occasion. They value fashion.
Ever met a Taurus full of Gemini placements? No one can pull off double life living like these men! They present it so well and will have 2 girlfriends and a boyfriend on the flip side.
Mars in Capricorn natives hate apologizing and being told what to do. Mars in Capricorn could also have a very difficult relationship with the father, he could be angry, aggressive, etc.
Asteroid Prevert 18624 conjunct Saturn could signify your father being a pedophile or pervert, I know this because It's in my chart and my father is a well-known offender.
Make a Libra Mars angry, it'll feel like an Aries Mars wrath... They are so calm and hold so much in to keep away from conflict but once their justice and their peace is compromised, you get an entirely different side, their anger is explosive, also any form of unfairness makes the scales tip.
Cancer Suns with Scorpio Moons are some of the most manipulative people I've ever met, (my mom) included, lol. They feel everything deeply, can feel a sense of change in the mood of a person on instinct. They have a tendency to self-sabotage to avoid vulnerability, but I mean, no judging. Emotional understanding is a superpower, use it correctly cause Pluto does not play Scorpio Moons.
Neptune in the 6th house need to always pay attention to their health and always trust their intuition, that higher self, no matter what. Connect with the foods you eat, study that food's effect on your body, it'll aid in tummy heath of yours.
Why do I mostly find Libra's and Sagittarius together? lol
I hope you enjoyed, thank you for reading. Your feedback and opinions are important to me.

hii! i read that 6H and 12H synastry gave mirroring energy and this guy im crushing on has his stellium in my 12H (sun venus mars) and i have mine in his 6H (sun moon mercury) so i wondered how that would play out :)
Hi!!! The 6H is ruled by Virgo and the 12H is ruled by Pisces— these two are sister signs! ☯️
I recently made a post giving some insight on Sun, Venus, and Mars sitting in the 12H of a synastry chart. Hopefully you can find my post helpful!
With your planets sitting in his 6H, I feel like you could help bring structure to his life. You genuinely care about his day and his well-being. With your sun here, I feel like you can illuminate the different areas of his routine/habits that could use improvement. I think this can make you guys really consider “what makes us happy on a day-to-day basis?” Your day can feel happier if it is spent together. It is easier to get things done when you’re together because it becomes more of a fun activity and not just a mind-numbing obligation. I feel like this is a couple who would be obsessed with their shared pet and probably make a social media account for their pet. Moon in the 6H really gives me “acts of service” vibes. You show your love by taking care of them and trying to make their lives feel easier. You get emotional satisfaction from making sure everything is okay. You suddenly start caring about their nutrition and well-being. The moon has a heightened attention to detail when it comes to the house person, and knows exactly how to tailor gifts, dates, activities, and time spent together to the exact vibe they know the house person craves. With the combination you guys have in the 6H, I feel like it is easy for you guys to instantly want to spend as much time together as possible. With mercury in the 6H, I feel like you guys always want to catch each other up to speed on whatever you’ve done that day. You two are probably always texting, especially at work. Maybe you guys really like to talk to one another during your lunch breaks. I feel like the house person respects mercury’s input and opinions. The house person can feel safe running ideas by the mercury person. The 6H person can feel like the planet person has their best interests at heart. You two can relieve individual anxieties and decompress together through conversation. I feel like the mercury person knows exactly what to tell the house person to calm them down or bring them back to earth. I feel like you guys can learn really cool facts together or talk about random observations you’ve made throughout the day. You guys are companions!
This 6H energy paired with the 12H energy, to me, represents a couple that can let loose and enjoy the sublime otherworldly intimacy together, but can get back down to earth and have that same intimacy in a practical sense. You two are less likely to engage in reckless behavior. However, I do think there runs a high risk of codependency. I feel like there are fears around being a “kill-joy” but also not wanting to enable the other one to lose touch with reality. I think can be a lot of love and devotion here if all cards are on the table and deception isn’t part of this connection. :)
I might add more to this later, since im at work right now :(

Chapter 2 Loading Screen Trivia
Note: Currently, I do not know which of these trivia may be general game trivia or Chapter 2 exclusives (if there is any). And there may be trivia I'm currently missing that I will add later on, if I find any more.
World Detective Organization (WDO) An extra-legal, extra-privileged organization devoted to eradicating the world's unsolved mysteries.
Detective Deed An identification card. These are granted by the World Detective Organization.
Master Detective Among the detectives belonging to the World Detective Organization, this is a detective with a specialized power called Forensic Forte that aids in their investigative activities.
Forensic Forte Those exhibiting innate talent for special powers like clairvoyance or mind-reading are trained by the WDO to develop a supernatural investigative ability called Forensic Forte or simply, Forte.
Amaterasu Corporation Many products are in development, some of which cannot be made public.
Amaterasu Peacekeepers A department of Amaterasu Corporation. They serve as a sort of police force within Kanai Ward.
Kanai Station The only train station in Kanai Ward. It's a magnificent building, but seldom has customers because of the city's isolation.
Kamasaki District Crime generally isn't bad here, unless you venture deeper inside, that is.
Riverbank Due to polluted waters, fish are rarely caught.
Ginma District Security tends to be pretty tight, likely on account of the frequent patronage by Amaterasu Corporation executives and other wealthy individuals.
"Dragon Palace" A popular meat bun shop in Ginma District. They sell at the higher-than-usual price of 500 shien apiece, but the owner insists it's due to superior seasoning.
Kanai Bus System A bus service running throughout Kanai Ward. The bus fee is fixed at 200 shien. Amaterasu Corporation employees ride free.
Kanai Ward Living Condition Perhaps because of the daily rainfall, some people in Kanai Ward don't mind getting wet.
Popular Sports Parkour is popular among the young men of Kamasaki District. New problems have arisen however, what will all the trespassing and running across the top of food stalls.
Treatment of Criminals Criminals captured by the Peacekeepers are sent to detention facilities where they are interrogated until they admit guilt; that is, if they're not disposed of on the spot.
Desuhiko's Beanie Desuhiko's custom-made, designer beanie is waterproof, and cost him several months' pay.
Fubuki's Accessories Fubuki's necklace has a clock motif. The choker is decorated with video playback control symbols.
Aetheria Academy An all-girls school situated on a mountain summit in Kanai Ward. It is 10 minutes away by bus from Kamasaki District. The students are mostly daughters of Amaterasu employees.
Aetheria Academy The prestigious all-girls school boasts not only a highly advanced educational program, but a weighty investment into club activities.
Aetheria Academy Cafeteria Much thought is put toward the caloric content and nutritional value of the menu, making it very popular among the students. This week's special is the "Hamburg Steak Meal."
Pets Because of Kanai Ward's unending rain, indoor pets are popular. At the same time, there is increasing concern of many dogs and cats become feral after being abandoned by irresponsible owners.
Flora in Kanai Ward Because it's difficult to grow plants in the perpetually rainy Kanai Ward, many have been replaced with synthetic counterparts, aside from some roadside trees and flowers in Ginma.
What's Trending at the Academy At Aetheria Academy, the students are raving about "Monomitchi," a game in which a bear cub is raised. It can turn into a variety of different bears, depending on its upbringing.
"Waiting for Gokut" One of the popular plays performed by Aetheria's theater club. The story revolves around the friends of someone named Gokut (GO-koo) waiting for him to return.
"The Culprit is Not Among Us" One of the popular plays performed by Aetheria's theater club. A mystery where 15 trapped men and women are drawn into a string of murders. Unique in that the culprit lurks within the audience.
"Faraway at the Bound of the World" One of the popular plays performed by Aetheria Academy's theater club. An adventure set in a fantasy world, revealed in the climax to be a devasted future earth all along. (No, I didn't make a typo)
"Match: The Intersection of Fate" One of the popular plays performed by Aetheria's theater club. A drama featuring an ensemble cast at a crossroads. Eight unique performances from different points of view, depending on the day.
About Aiko Always cheerful and full of energy, she had many friends. She enjoyed transforming into a completely different person through acting and wanted to try many different roles.
Karen's Weakness She dislikes the sounds and flashes of thunder and lightning, and is quick to hide in her room at the mere hint of rumbling.
Yoshiko's Bag The waist bag used in the theater club belongs to Yoshiko. It's designed by a brand from outside Kanai Ward that Pucci also adores.
Waruna's Secret On the way home from Aetheria Academy, she stops by the riverbank to give milk to stray cats, an activity she hasn't told anyone about.
Kurane's Favorite Tunes She's secretly gotten into heavy metal choir and is looking forward to an upcoming death metal choir release.
Aetheria Academy's Teacher Hana is the name of the teacher Desuhiko disguised himself as. An alumnus of Aetheria Academy, she guides her students with a firm yet gentle style of education.
Omen Detective A Master Detective with the Forte to predict the future. However, the range of the prediction is extremely narrow and limited. This detective was not summoned to Kanai Ward.

10 examples of HC’s cat, E’Ming, being a brat:
1. Pushing things off counters such as his keys, hand towels, paperwork, and hair ties - especially when HC is looking directly at her.
2. HC suddenly fighting for his life in the middle of the night because E’Ming decided to plop herself right on HC’s chest, staring at him with owl eyes, daring him to push her off.
HC does. Except this continues to happen numerous times throughout the night. HC gives up and goes back to sleep with shallow breaths.
Then wakes up at 6 AM sharp to E’Ming violently making biscuits on his tiddies, reminding him it’s breakfast time.
3. E’Ming randomly nipping him when he’s just trying to pet her, damn it! But during the times HC is preoccupied, E’Ming yowls like she’s paid to get the neighbors to call animal services on them!
4. Walking all over HC’s keyboard when he’s trying to work. Sitting on the exact papers he’s trying to look at. Chewing on his fancy pens.
5. Being a PICKY eater.
6. Perching menacingly on the bathroom counter while he showers, staring directly through the glass door.
7. Escaping once a month, also known as giving HC a heart attack once a month.
8. Weaving through his long legs to the point HC trips when trying to avoid stepping on her.
9. E’Ming pawing at the bead in HC’s braided hair.
HC: “NO-“
E’Ming: “MREOWWW!” *bites on the braid*
10. E’Ming scaling HC’s back when she wants to be held, ripping the back of his shirts in the process.
***
1 pro that makes the previous 10 things less insufferable:
1. E’Ming is a Gege-attractor.
***
1 con that cancels out the previous pro:
1. E’Ming is a Gege-hogger.
[extra: E’Ming is a blue-baller.]
***
1. E’Ming wiggling her way between gege’s legs while Hualian make out on the couch…
HC: “DAMN IT NOT NOW-“
XL: “hi sweet girl~”
2. E’Ming loafing on XL’s chest as he lays on the couch. HC comes to join but as he leans forward to kiss XL, E’Ming places her paw on his lips-
HC: “the audacity of my fucking cat- MOVE-!”
Before HC can pick E’Ming up, the cat has wrapped her body around XL’s neck, purring up a storm. XL laughs in delight. His hands gently pet E’Ming’s black, soft fur.
XL: “my noble, gracious protector” *kisses E’Ming’s fur*
HC: 🧍‍♂️
3. E’Ming appearing out of nowhere to aggressively bat HC’s head as he’s about to enter XL-
HC: 😑
Thus, Hualian end up closing HC’s bedroom door every time they need alone time. Sometimes, they put on a playlist to block out E’Ming’s tantrum.
After they’re done. XL goes to let E’Ming in. But before she enters, her nose scrunches up.
She sniffs a couple times. Then glares at HC.
And sprints away.
***
Miraculously, XL has a sixth sense in catching any item E’Ming decides to sweep off the counter.
It’s their thing because E’Ming always tries to be unpredictable but somehow XL IS ALWAYS THERE!? HE’S ALWAYS READY??
IS HE STALKING HER???
XL, catching all the mail E’Ming flung off in succession: “aiya, stop! you know it‘s useless. i’ll just keep catching everything you drop.”
E’Ming: [annoyed] “mrreow!!”
XL: “keep dreaming, kitten” :)
E’Ming: [jumps off counter and retreats to HC’s bedroom]
HC, watching from the side, starstruck: “I think I just fell deeper in love with you, Gege.”
***
No matter what HC claims, he still loves and cares for E’Ming immensely. He actually spoils her to bits by buying her the tastiest food packed with nutrition and the most addicting catnip toys that she could play with for hours.
HC is also in the process of installing high ledges on the wall to create an elevated cat jungle for E’Ming to play on. When he mentions this to XL for the first time, XL raises an eyebrow and smiles, amused.
XL: “she has you wrapped around her sassy little tail, doesn’t she?”
HC, in realization: 🫠
***
When Hualian decide to move in together, XL brings his pet snake, Ruoye, to HC’s apartment.
E’Ming’s fur poofs up in defense when she first spots the long, pale creature behind the glass tank. When Ruoye’s tongue flicks out, E’Ming books it out of the living room.
Absolutely terrifying, she concludes.
But as the months pass by, E’Ming comes to accept this foreign thing must stay. It doesn’t stop her from staring at Ruoye for long periods of time, or from trying to intimidate the snake with a front-row-seat to her wrestling a stuffed animal frog WWE-style.
But they manage to get along. Eventually, it will be safe enough that XL can take Ruoye out and hang her on his neck while he completes chores and E’Ming will insistently tag along.
Plus, all the dead mice that E’Ming proudly drops at HC’s feet can contribute towards Ruoye’s food source.
***
XL’s moving in also means a boost in social events HC is a part of. Not that he minds too much because most of the time it’s people both he and XL are familiar with.
If E’Ming can be a total brat to the one who puts a roof over her head and food in her bowl, then she can be satan’s literal spawn to humans in every other category. (Excluding XL, of course.)
Cue HC subjecting his devil cat to certain somebodies during their Chinese New Year dinner.
E’Ming actually doesn’t mind HX. For years, HX looked after her when HC was away, and she quite likes HX’s scent for some reason…fishy.
But HX, in his all black attire, steers clear from the black furball who will bite him if he doesn’t feed her the special treats he usually has and currently doesn’t.
MQ and E’Ming have glaring contests. Every time. E’Ming looks like she’s preparing to attack MQ’s leg? Go on, he seethes with his eyes. I dare you.
E’Ming stalks away with her chin tipped up.
MQ is also the only one who can stop E’Ming from pushing things off the counter with one tongue-click.
However, no matter how hard MQ tries to prevent it, E’Ming always squeezes her way in to watch him go to the bathroom.
FX high-key really wants to pet E’Ming but he doesn’t stand a chance.
MQ to FX: “you know, it doesn’t help that you have dogs”
FX: “s-shut up”
E’Ming walking by…
FX: “hiiii, hellooo sweet thing!”
E’Ming: 👁👁
FX: “…pspspsp-“
E’Ming hisses, then trots away.
Right into YY’s arms.
Because for some reason, E’Ming LOVES YY. She always greets him at the front door with a soft “mrrrp??” and then rub her cheek on his legs until he picks her up.
YY holds her like a baby, rocking slightly. E’Ming immediately begins purring loudly, slowly closing her eyes.
HC: “you know you’re stuck with her for awhile now?”
YY: “yeah” *heads to the chair in the corner*
If you listen closely, you can hear FX sobbing in the background.
***

Exploring the Animal Care Market Revenue, Growth, and Future Outlook
Tumblr media
Introduction
The Animal Care Industry plays a pivotal role in ensuring the health, well-being, and happiness of pets and companion animals worldwide. This article delves into the dynamics of the animal care market, offering insights into its research reports, growth prospects, revenue outlook, and emerging trends.
Animal Care Market Research Reports

Hi im terribly sorry! I just really need your help. I’m trying to raise some funds for little Olaf’s needs (my cat) as I brought him to the vet yesterday morning because of a really bad diarrhea and im trying to raise some funds as I cannot afford the estimate the vet gave us. 🥲Please help me share the post I made for him, I have pinned it on my blog. I’m hoping that you’ll consider, and sorry again for bothering you and for being this direct! Take care!
Wait, aren’t you apart of the wave of pet, specifically cat, veterinary bill scams????
And with further inspection, your account looks very suspicious.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Your first reblog was made 2 days ago and immediately after that reblog, you put up your first ad and then proceed to spam reblogs to give off the appearance you didn’t just make your account 2 days ago. Also, that breed of cat looks expensive but I don't feel like bothering my dad over a Tumblr post.
Look, I get it, times are hard and you're only asking for $300 but I don't think guilt-tripping people out of their money is the solution.
If you need help spotting rent, and or utilities, your state may have an emergency rental assistance hotline you can access here.
If you need groceries you look can look for a local food bank you can search on this databse here and USDA nutrition services here. (Some food banks may be able to spot you toothpaste and diapers but everywhere is different)
If you need clothes I suggest garage sales, clearance isles (specifically at Walmart), sometimes dumpster diving can yield surprising results. And to wash those clothes, laundry mats usually require a few bucks or less.
If you can't afford a car, let alone, gas, if it is possible for you, I'd use bikes and become very familiar with public transportation. They're a lot more cost effective.
I personally have a serving center near me that may be able to supply all of these if not more and I highly suggest you look into your area as well. Those places usually have more information than I can provide to you on how you can survive in this system.
I don’t think you’re a bad person, I think a lot of people end up being angry at desperate actions from people who are just trying to survive. What I am is worried for you. Please stay safe and know this isn't the only option. Quick cash is convenient, but ultimately, temporary.

Raincoat: Check. Lotion: Check. Violently assaulted a service industry worker who did nothing wrong: Check check check! What's next on the list?
Tumblr media
Is Kurumi leaving? What about her education? She may be a homunculus but she's still a high school girl. Is she planning to study abroad?
If they've solved the feral regeneration problem then she'll have a hell of a party trick.
Kurumi: Hey guys, check this out! *slits her own throat and dies*
The funny thing is it takes 24 hours to regenerate so nobody will get it for a full day. The best kinds of pranks are the ones that traumatize an entire room full of people in ways that they'll be explaining to their therapist for decades to come!
Tumblr media
We have fair trade and commerce coming through internationally! ^_^ I'm so happy for Kanai Ward.
Tumblr media
Makoto's managing to handle international relations. I wonder if we've told the outside world about the homunculus situation, or if he's still using that to blackmail the Unified Government into staying back?
Tumblr media
Makoto wants to be punished so badly but he's valuable.
Makoto: You're going to kill me. It's the right choice. Yuma: NO. STOP THAT. You have valuable skills for leading Kanai Ward. Makoto: I understand. I will turn myself over to UG police immediately. Kanai Ward: NO. STOP THAT.
He genuinely can't get his head around the idea that what he did was bad, but it wasn't so bad. It had extreme circumstances as a mitigating factor.
Tumblr media
A heavy responsibility but one he seems qualified for. I'm glad I didn't have to furiously murder him.
Tumblr media
She's chasing after Yuma. Got it. She intends to be the Amy Rose to his Sonic the Hedgehog.
Tumblr media
THE PRECIOUS
The way she says this definitely makes me think Real Yuma did, indeed, crack the culinary code and find a way to create non-human food suitable for sustaining a homunculus diet.
Tumblr media
You did it, man. You fucking did it. You had no idea what you were even doing when you did it but you did it. I hope Makoto gave Real Yuma a medal for this.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Real Yuma's left a greater mark on this city as a chef than he ever could have as a detective. I'm proud of you, man.
I. Uh. I hope Number One let you have your name back. Or you found a new name that you like better.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You were just in the wrong line of work. You've done something that Amaterasu's geneticists couldn't figure out how to do. It's clear that your culinary skills are where your calling lies.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I wonder if homunculi have to travel back here to get their ramen, or if they ship it overseas for retail? KOKORAMEN: All the nutrition a homunculus needs!
Arguments erupting on the internet because trend-following humans keep buying up the Kokoramen.
Stores in xenophobic areas of the world court controversy by stocking Kokoramen next to the pet food aisle. WE ALL SEE WHAT YOU'RE DOING, YOU ASSHOLES.
...I bet you "red-blooded" becomes an exclusionary dogwhistle. "I'm just like any other red-blooded 'Murican!"
Tumblr media
Are we finally taking the sub out of harbor? Please tell me we're finally taking the sub out of harbor.
Will Yakou be there? His presence or absence will answer the question, "Have we solved the feral regeneration problem?"
Tumblr media
SQUEE They're all okay! ^_^ I'm so happy right now. Fubuki's safe! And Halara! Vivia's... probably around here somewhere.
Tumblr media
You tell 'em, bestie! In fact, as Number One, I want to change the rules so that detectives are allowed to work together and cooperate. That seems like it should be the core takeaway for the WDO from this experience.
Tumblr media
So, is Kurumi going with them? Or planning to sneak out after they leave and follow them?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
HAHAHAHAHAHA HE'S LUGGAGE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
10/10 Funniest moment in the entire game
Tumblr media
That checks out. You heard him, Desuhiko. That's your job.
Tumblr media
Sadly, no sign of Yakou so I guess feral regeneration remains an issue.
That's okay. Maybe some of the city's homunculi can study genetics themselves and take on this problem.
Tumblr media
Okay but are we taking the sub? Because that is the opposite of flight, Vivia.
Tumblr media
...
I wonder.
If.
I can stiff my wealthy homunculus with the bill I've racked up. Y'know, he's basically me so... It's like co-signing on a loan.
The alternative is dipping into WDO funds to pay off Halara but. Then. That. Wouldn't be paying a debt, so much as it would be. Like. A paycheck. From their employer.
I, Halara's employer, owe them financial compensation for work performed under agreement with me. Wow, this recontextualizes our entire dynamic, doesn't it?
Tumblr media
You should complain directly to the boss. He'll listen to you.
Tumblr media
Oh, Makoto faked the bombing too. I knew he faked the deaths of the Master Detectives, but I didn't realize that part was fake as well.
Fake video footage, fake corpses with pink blood sprayed everywhere, and the letters full of information that nobody here knew but that were written in their handwriting. That last part's a bit hard to justify.
Tumblr media
Wow, that's a shrug emoji if I ever saw one. Coalescence doesn't work like that. It a) copies Fortes, b) requires you to hold the hand of the person you're copying, and most importantly, c) requires their cooperation to copy their ability.
We can give the ability credit and assume it can copy more than just a Forte. That's fine. But unless Makoto as gripping everyone's hand and they were consenting to his copy of their handwriting style as he was writing, that makes no sense at all.
"Makoto hired an experienced signature forger." There you go. That's all you had to say.
Tumblr media
Hahaha the team was kicking back in the penthouse enjoying wine and biscuits while we were running the trauma gauntlet.
Tumblr media
HE DID WHAT
YUMA
YUMA WHAT THE FUCK
I realize you no longer have faith in the WDO's methodology but that's what reforms are for. You were the top dog of the organization. You were in a perfect position to institute necessary changes. Yuma. Yuma, why. T_T
Tumblr media
Ohhhh, okay. That makes more sense. Yuma didn't make bad choices. He simply got screwed by Number One continuing to suck.

There is a lot of misinformation when it comes to pet food, I hope this can shed some light. - Grains are necessary (Unless diagnosed with grain allergies by a veterinarian). - Raw isn't always best. (Raw/home cooked diets need to be properly formulated by a board certified nutritionist to be balanced, more information below). - Grain free can be dangerous. - The vast majority of companies do not follow WSAVA guidelines. - Veterinarians DO NOT get kick backs from suggesting food. How are they going to get a kickback from a food you didn't even buy from them? If anything, the pet store employees are getting kick backs for suggesting foods! The “Big Five” Brands are the five brands that adhere to WSAVA guidelines (World Small Animal Veterinary Association). Which are: - Employs one or more full-time qualified nutritionist(s) and willingly discloses their credentials. - Foods are formulated by a qualified team of professionals such as nutritionists, toxicologists, food scientists etc. - Undergoes feeding trials that meet or exceed AAFCO standards, for most or all formulations. - Foods are produced and manufactured in US facilities, owned and operated by the manufacturer, or under close supervision of the manufacturer. Equipped with machinery, laboratories and staff that provide extensive on-site quality assurance. - Provides detailed description on quality control protocol. Selection criteria for partners, analysis and sample tracking of externally sourced ingredients, daily safety checks of product batches and facilities, physical inspection, key nutrient testing before final packing. - Provides exact number for any nutrient on an energy basis (grams per kcal). - Readily provides kcal content per gram and per cup. - Conducts research relevant to nutrition, products marketed, and product claims. Publishes research in peer-reviewed journals. So let’s get to it. The “Big Five” Brands are: Royal Canin - Breed specific lines that were created in conjunction with breeders and veterinarians, general health lines and targeted health lines + RX diets Eukanuba - Owned by Royal Canin, mainly their performance lines + general health lines Purina - Sport lines, general health lines, targeted health lines, most accessible and cost effective + RX diets IAMS - General health lines, cost effective, easily accessible Hills Pet - General health lines, targeted health lines + RX diets If you’d like to do some reading… Here are multiple links for kibble, raw diets, grain free vs grain inclusive, Diet Associated DCM and WSAVA.
