    TW: parental loss
    This is Joey, my Mom’s huge orange cat. He has spent all of his life fat, happy, and an only very spoiled cat.
    He’s been here since February but as of last Friday, he’s officially ours. He now has two sisters who are not amused. He also has lost some weight because he likes to play and run around with his new siblings, much to their annoyance.
    I arranged my Mom’s Playbills for a photo. Joey came by and sat on her collection. It was his little tribute.

    Inheriting A 39 Year Old Parrot While 8 Months Pregnant

    I made a post a few months ago explaining that my husband’s grandfather had passed away, leaving a 39 year old hello headed Amazon who needed a home and that despite being 8 months pregnant with our first child and having no experience with birds, we had decided to step up and be the family members who brought him home.

    Some face the challenge of picking which items to toss out and which to keep. Instead of keeping everything and being a pack rat, Williamson recommends saving heirlooms that hold great personal importance, are useful, and have historical significance. 

    If you’re still facing a dilemma, Williamson suggests setting aside boxes and revisiting them after a few months. 

    “As time goes by, you will realize that the antique train that seemed so special has lost its magic, and it will be easier to let it go,” she wrote.

    My Mom Died So I Inherited Her Shih Tzu

    A dog lounges beside a Santa figurine, symbolizing a unique inheritance.

    My mom recently died of cancer, it happened very quickly. Four years prior, we traveled out of state and we each got a shih tzu. We were so happy with our puppies. At that time, she made me promise I would take her dog if anything happened to her which I was happy to do. I never would have guessed it would happen so soon.
    My mom and her dog were inseparable. He followed her everywhere as shih tzu’s do and even went to work with her. He was there when she passed so I hope he has some closure with that. He went from a quiet house with my mom to moving in with my family that consists of my husband, three kids and two other shih tzus. Thankfully, I am a SAHM so I spend a lot of time with him and we go for walks often. It has only been three weeks. He seems pretty confused here but is starting to play and show his personality.
    My male shih tzu is not very friendly with him. Growls and sometimes attacks him if he gets too close to me. They both seem to be alpha males so neither back down. My female shih tzu is great with my mom’s dogs but I feel so bad for the little guy and just hope he is happy here. Here’s a picture of my mom’s dog, he is so sweet and well behaved.

    Many younger people today prefer not to inherit family heirlooms from their parents or grandparents. Since some antiques hold little to no value, they are often rejected or disposed of.

    Do not leave it with just any jeweler. Many steal old diamonds and replace them. Get it appraised elsewhere first and checked out again afterwards.

    My Inheritance From My Stepdad

    A plant in a pot next to a chair and a dog lying on a stuffed toy, representing cool inheritance items.

    I inherited two things from my beloved step dad, his dog who’s the best boy, and his Yuka Tree.
    While his family cleared the house I left the tree as it was rather heavy and we needed to move some furniture first. It’s been a couple days and his family have moved a lot of the furniture out and left the plant outside his house for me to go get and I’ve come to find it and it seems someone decided to pull all its leaves off. I’m not sure if it was malicious or kids in the area, I just hope they grow back.

    Inherited This Insane Ring From My Great Great Aunty. How Old Is It?

    A person holds a diamond ring, a unique inheritance, displaying it in a black box and from the side.

    I need help finding information on this kind gift as I know very little about it. I've tried myself but didn't get anywhere. She was born in 1912, and lived around Bolton, UK all her life. The note was in the bag with the ring, describing the '69 diamonds' inlaid in Platinum. This description has been cut out of a bigger piece of paper - possibly the receipt? The scribbles where there when I got it.
    It seems well made as all of the diamonds are flush with the ring (I literally know nothing lol). I'm terrified of wearing it in case I lose one.

    Copper Bottom Revere Ware Set I Inherited From My Parents. All Pieces Were Made Before 1968

    I’m in my 30’s and these are the pots and pans my parents used all throughout my life. My parents inherited this set from my grandparents on my dad’s side. These were made in Rome, NY. Unfortunately the company opted to have their products manufactured in China beginning in 1999.

    Mexican here: The three coins on the top right look like Centenarios. They are almost pure gold, and cost around 3,000 dollars each. They are considered legal tender in any exchange house, you can sell them right away.

    My Wife Inherited This Piece Of Amethyst From Her Late Father, How Can We Clean It Up Without Damaging It?

    My Wife Inherited This Piece Of Amethyst From Her Late Father, How Can We Clean It Up Without Damaging It?

    He passed away in May, it was in his room for months before and then months after his death, coming home with us today. As a result it's very dusty. He also smoked in the same room so it likely isn't just dust but a coating of cigarette chemicals etc.
    How can we clean it up without damaging it? It's a rock at the end of the day, can we just submerge it in some lukewarm water and use a soft toothbrush or similar to remove the dirt?
    Thanks

    I Just Inherited This Truck

    I Just Inherited This Truck

    Hello all. I’m new here. I inherited this 72’ from my father. He replaced the engine/trans with a 454 and turbo 400. It’s clearly been lowered with cutdown springs. Stock rear end. It has some aftermarket panels, original hood. It needs a new bed floor and wiring harness. It also had a Holly carb. It runs rich and has problems staying running.
    I’m not at all a car/truck guy but I know enough to know of the potential of this vehicle. I think I should change the rear end, or at least the gearing. I live in western Washington. I don’t know how to proceed. I’d like to bring it to a Chevy shop for them to go through it and make all the necessary changes. I don’t want to take it to a regular mechanic as I don’t want to get screwed.
    Do any of you know of a good honest shop or mechanic I can trust in or around the Seattle area? I’ve thought about reaching out to any car clubs but wanted to check here first.

    Before you do anything with it, I would take it somewhere and see if it is worth some money as is. Sometimes things are worth more as is than if you cleaned a object up. Then I would ask if it is worth more as is or more if you clean it up and what is the best way to do this.

    My Grandfather's Old Leather Bag

    I recently inherited an old duffel from my father. He's had it for as long as I remember and I've always admired it, but it's so old that the leather is starting to wear out considerably. It also has patches inside where it has been professionally repaired at least once. Is there any specific products out there that can restore some strength and color to very old leather without damaging it further?

    Google or Ebay search "1934A $1000 One Thousand Dollar Bills". If these are genuine they're worth much more than their face value to collectors. If they're not, you may get a call from the FBI or Secret Service. 😕

    You can say all you want about elephant ivory, and I agree. But you have to realize that some of those old pieces were collected in the days before people wised up about this. I have 2 very tiny ivory sculptures - miniatures, really, and they are about 150-200 years old.

    This Plastic Cooking Spoon I Inherited From My Grandma Is Apparently From The 60-70s

    By the Swedish company Plast-Teknik based in Gothenburg, which also is the city I'm from and live in.
    I couldn't find more info about this particular model though – the only other text is "Art. Nr. 1341" which is the article number. It would be fun to know which year it's from. The are some museum pieces in the Nationalmuseum dating from the 60s and 70s, and some listings on Tradera (basically Swedish Ebay) mainly dating from the 70s, so that's why I assume this spoon is also from that time period.
    I use it all the time, and I guess grandma did as well since she didn't own many other cooking spoons. It's very sturdy, and it doesn't look like the black color has faded at all over the decades.
    ...Because I like it so much it's probably extremely toxic or something.

    Inherited An Old Grill In Rough Shape. Should I Repaint The Inside?

    Inherited An Old Grill In Rough Shape. Should I Repaint The Inside?

    I inherited a grill in rough shape. I’m using a wire brush to clean what looks like flaking black paint from the inside. Should I get it all to bare metal and repaint it? First time working on a grill so all advice is welcome.

    Pressure wash or even sandblast, would not paint it... at least not the inside. Very well possible that the flakes coming off are a combination of meat grease and burnt charcoal.
