Put down, he deteriorated a lot in the space of about a week. From walking fine etc to going blind, loss of hearing and you could hear him struggling to breath as well, oh and he started to get nose bleeds.

Good choice. Can't stand when dog owners let their dog cling to shreds of life until absolutely everything fails.

And don't watch Marley & Me, unless you're after some catharsis...

Have lost four dogs at ripe old ages, gets harder the older you are cause you understand mortality a bit better and you have more time spent with them during important and memorable times of your life. Still have 3 alive dogs who will bring me that sadness again in the next 5-7 years.

Damn you dog y u have such short life

Sorry to hear mate. My Jack Russell is 15 years old this year. He is slightly deaf and slightly blind. Still in good health otherwise. I'm cherishing everyday with him as I know at this age they can deteriorate quickly. I just can't imagine living without him as he has been apart of my life since I was 12/13 years old.

Sorry to hear mate :( Hardest thing in the world to say goodbye to a pup. I've said goodbye to two now and it never gets any easier.

My ex took our dog when she left... They had some pretty similar traits in that they both tried to f**k anything that stood still long enough. At least the dog had loyalty.

The last time I saw my pup it was like he knew that it was going to be the last time, and he was crying and jumping all over me and licking me. There is no substitute for the love of a good dog.

Does anyone give a shit when cats die?

My old boss had an actual full-tilt breakdown when her chicken died. She was a c**t so I assume the chicken died by Seppuku,

Didn't they do a study recently that essentially proved that cats are asshats? Something about dogs producing 5x as much Oxytocin as cats after playing with their human.

Dogs are much more social creatures I think and the pack mentality is in their ancestry; cats tend to be solo hunters like tigers (though lions do it in groups). From what I've seen in homes with multiple pets the dogs are always sticking together and watching what each other does, whilst multiple cats sort of do their own thing.

I've never had a cat so maybe I just don't get it. I feel like if I wanted an animal that found a comfortable spot and laid there for hours without moving or making any sort of noise, occasionally scavenged for food, never cleaned up after itself and otherwise wholly ignored my presence, I'd just continue living with my current housemate.

I prefer cats over dogs.

Still like dogs though, so this is a "cat is more suited to me" thing over cats being superior to dogs.

Dogs are awesome, but they do require more effort to maintain, so to speak - Which isn't for everyone.

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
