Isn’t Florida already kinda… squishy?

They make a really big hole when they fall. As a kid my parents house had one of the last big ones inside city limits. They built a whole garden around it, with a neat fountain they built out of a big redwood root system next to is. When it fell it was lucky for everyone nearby because it managed to fall right down the middle of the road, luckily the house at the end across from a T intersection was set back from the road because it went into their yard too. I shoulda mentioned that the garden and tree were only about 4 feet from where my dad parked his little pickup. The truck was close enough that it tipped over into the hole and the neighbors came to watch. It only actually destroyed some fences and cars and minor damage to houses from branches. We were incredibly lucky and they shouldn’t be kept inside city limits. But it was pretty awesome as a kid to see that happen, and get to jump up the street on the giant rounds the fire fighters made before lugging it all away.

I’m disabled and I get picked up in ambulances a handful of times every year. Sometimes I’m unconscious, sometimes I don’t have my ID. My health is bad enough that minutes literally matter in those situations (my heart “pauses”). I’d imagine there’s thousands of people in the same boat.

Before anyone asks, this was more at the beginning of my illness 16 years ago, I am better about keeping my ID and medical info on me now. But people make mistakes and forget, especially when they’re ill.

I’ve heard a lot of species of cats have similar traits to our household buddies (purring, headbutts, the way they are with toys). What make Ocelots alike, or different from my kitty?
