Started badly with the cat being sick at 03:30 ... You gotta clean it up, or you'll step in it when you go for a pee in the dark later ... Sigh | :sigh:

He does vomit rather more than I'd like, and one of the suggestions I read about was to raise his food. Apparently it helps it go down, and hopefully stay there. So his bowls got lifted from the floor with the help of an Amazon box, and then his big bowls got replaced with shallower ones, and yesterday I printed a stand for two bowls - his wet food and his dry food.

Today, the bowls get transferred to the stand and he gets bribed to try them. Not a problem, he even lowered his rear end while eating, so hopefully it will all work.

Anyway, when I bought the new bowls they only game in a set of three - and they are far too shallow for a water bowl, so I figured I'd superglue some Neodymium magnets under it (it's a stainless steel bowl) and use it for a pin tray since my last one got borrowed and I haven't seen it since.
Clean the base and the magnets with Isopropyl alcohol apply glue to bowl, drop magnets on carefully. Wait.
Gently push one magnet to see if they are stuck, and ... no ... it goes flying across the bowl, gathers up the other three and vanishes under the freezer. Sigh | :sigh:

Of course by the time I get them out, they have successfully glued themselves together just to add insult to injury.

As I said: one of those days.
