How to keep stray cats out of my yard
Hello wikiHow! I’ve read some of the guides you fine folks have written in the past and they were really helpful, so I figured this would be a good place to seek help with my current predicament. I live in an area that has developed quite the population of stray cats. They mess with my plants, they harass the other wildlife that hangs out in my yard, and they’re so loud. Does anyone have any guidance on how to get rid of these cats without doing anything harmful to them or hurting other animals on accident?

Does the Salvation Army pick up furniture in your home?
Howdy, friends! I’m in the process of moving and I’d like to donate some furniture that I don’t think will work in my new place. However, I am a very tiny person and the furniture is very heavy. It’s not a fun combo. If I try to donate this stuff to the Salvation Army around the corner do you think they’ll come pick it up? I really can’t move it myself and I don’t know anyone with a truck that could help me take it somewhere.
How to wash, clean, and dry a weighted blanket?
So...I haven't cleaned my weighted blanket since I bought it. It's starting to look dirty now, so I want to clean it, but idk if it's too heavy or bulky to put in my washer and dryer and if it could ruin the machines. Do I have to clean this thing by hand, or what is the best way to do it?
