One of those construct a meal from stuff in the pantry & fridge evenings and shove it all in the air fryer. I’ve got panko crumbed chicken breasts, hand cut chips, roasted zucchini and green beans. This will do.

Adoption Certificate for Nellie, the Daily Thread numbat (with thanks to @Catfish)
Myrkur released a new album and I listened to Mothlike.
The piano and her vocals are still beautiful but it's not really the sort of stuff I like from her. It's sounding more like poppy/symphonic/power metal (idk the names) with a passage of out of context screaming and while pleasant (and I can dig that sometimes) I feel like the weird mishmash of black metal inspired/folk metal or just straight up folk is just more my jam? Maybe with more listens it will grow on me.
But Måneblôt, Ulvinde or I riden så are still probably more my thing.
I'm just watching chunks of American Dad on Youtube, chilling and damping the brain cells down. There should be a way to draw lying on your back.
Oh wow.
TMI cat urine cleaning adventures
On getting kitty home I had zipped apart the pet pram carrier's cloth parts and soaked them in a big plastic tub along with the cloth nappies and blankets that had lined it. I used four lidfuls of generic Napisan and a full dose of enzyme detergent in lukewarm water and soaked for 3 days thinking that would do something to clean and deodorize.
Well... the dark concentrated urine staining has come out but the entire soak water turned into a yellow ammoniac pee solution of its own. An entire washtub of warm soapy water and enzymes intended for nappies turned into pee.
I've drained it, rinsed and wrung out each piece of cloth, and put them back into the rinsed tub to soak again with half a bottle of a biological cleaner concentrate bought for urine. Which I should have used first for it to work properly, but we live and learn. The sponge padding layer may need to be thrown out and replaced with a piece of thick soft foam rubber that won't absorb fluid. The wooden base has been sprayed with the cleaner and left to sit but still may need to be thrown out.
I would bet money that at the cattery she was left sitting in that reeking mess and breathing it in for days. And yes, I did line the carrier with cloth and disposable puppy pads just in case but she dug them up into a pile trying to bury her accidents so it all completely soaked through the cloth carrier on the next one.
I did send her with a bottle of unscented urine cleaner and a bottle of unscented laundry detergent in case of accident, which I mentioned the possibility of, and left my contact details. But here we are.
I may have to buy washable puppy pads and sew them into a rectangular liner that goes all the way up the sides for a waterproof barrier that can't be pulled aside by digging. And if I can't clean this well enough I may be looking at buying a new pram.
Edit: On heading to buy the washable puppy pads I now see I didn't actually pull the pin on buying the planner and stuff /headslap I'll just chuck a few more items in and do that
