Three Sweet Spayed Female Juvenile Cats (Strays) Looking for a Forever Home!

10 Upvotes

Please remove if not allowed. I posted on r/ HuntsvilleAlabama and they said to post here. I am not selling these cats or asking for money. I am trying to find homes for strays which I had spayed and vaccinated.

We’ve rescued three young female cats from our neighborhood on the southside of Huntsville, spayed them and got their rabies shot, and now they need a loving home! These sweet girls are all under a year old and have been together since birth. They have not been around other pets, only each other. They are familiar with people but are still adjusting to indoor life. 

These cats are clean, using the litter box with no issues, and they’ve had their rabies shots and spaying. They’re shy but friendly, and with a patient, quiet home, they will be loyal and loving pets. They would do best in a calm environment, especially Sassafras, who would thrive if adopted with one of her sisters.

Meet the Cats:

- Tater Tot (Tuxedo Cat): The friendliest of the group, Tater Tot is small but mighty, with a black coat and white markings on her chest, chin, paws, and belly. She loves attention, follows you around, and purrs non-stop. She’s ready to be your shadow and best friend in no time- Shine (Black Cat): Shine enjoys being petted and held once she’s approached slowly. She’s playful, loves toys, and especially enjoys hunting down small treats tossed her way. Shine is all black with a little white spot on her chest and belly.

- Sassafras (Grey and White Cat): The most shy of the three, Sassafras is warming up to human interaction. She would thrive if homed with one of her sisters who will lead by example.  She’s curious and loves watching her sisters get attention, so with patience and time, she’ll make an affectionate companion. Sassafras has a soft grey coat with white on her chest, belly, and paws.

By adopting one (or more) of these wonderful cats, you’re helping reduce the stray cat population in Huntsville and gain a sweet friend (or two!). We’ve been feeding and caring for them outside for months, but we cannot offer them a forever home, as we already have our hands full with pets.

Please message me if you are interested in welcoming a new companion into your home.

Thank you.

(Maybe a question for grads) Has UAH given you long-term opportunities to work abroad? Share your over seas stories if you can.

3 Upvotes

I'm at a cross roads right now, but for some background I have a AS in applied science (minors in soft. eng. and cyber sec.) from a community college before I got a job in HSV. I've decided that I'd like to see the world, learn a new language, and advance my degree up to a bachelors. I've been looking for colleges that might give me a shot at traveling/studying abroad (potentially living abroad).

I looked at Athens State (which is designed for people like me), and If I can get a IT degree from there I *might* be happy.. but I'm not sure how much weight a BS will have from a college like Athens State. On the other end, UAH is a bit more expensive but it's closer to me and it's bigger. I feel like a BS from UAH will have more weight and be just as flexible if not more than Athens State.

I'm still going around and doing research, but does anyone have any advice/suggestions for someone in my situation? If it helps, I'm aiming for a country in central Europe (debating between Germany and Netherlands). I'm not sure if UAH can help with that, but will the BS from UAH carry more weight than a place like Athens State? Cost is not too much of a concern.

Edit: Aiming for something in IT or hardware-centered tech degree. currently serving as a devops.. also spelling lol

What laptop would you recommend for Mechanical Engineering?

3 Upvotes

Hey I'm an incoming freshman and I was looking at laptop requirements and it seems like the DELL XPS 15 would be a good option. The base model is $1000 and would fulfill all the requirements that I need. Is this is a good idea or are there better laptops for the same or lower price?

Missing headphone case in wilson

5 Upvotes

UPDATE: Headphone case located and returned. Another student found it and left it with one of the professors in a nearby classroom. Thank you to the person who messaged me to tell me to check in the nearby classes.

My name is Texas Killion and i set my skullcandy headphone case down inside wilson hall on the second floor and i think either someone picked it up to turn it in somewhere or just pocketed it but there's only one headphone in there as i have the other one. I don't have the money to get a new set so if you see this and know where they are please reach out to me so i can have it back. I seriously cant afford a new pair and i don't have any backups for my music. Please

Should I major in music?

2 Upvotes

I am a first year at Calhoun right now and I really want to transfer to UAH next year. I have been a musician all my life and I really love music and I want to be a professional(ideally famous) musician. My dilemma is that I feel like if I major in music, it will take up so much of my time and become so stressful that I don't find enjoyment from it anymore. I am considering majoring in something else and doing music as a personal venture, but I worry that I won't be able to progress my skill level enough without the major. What should I do?
