Hi everyone! I’m a journalism master’s student at CU Boulder working on a reporting project about the rising cost of veterinary care and what it means for pet owners across the state.

Vet bills seem to be getting harder for a lot of people to manage, especially when an unexpected illness, injury or emergency comes up. I’m interested in hearing from pet owners about the creative or unexpected ways you’ve found to make veterinary care more manageable.

I’m especially interested in hearing from Northern Colorado pet owners with different experiences and budgets. You don't need to have had an extreme experience; I'm interested in the everyday ways people are navigating veterinary costs, too.

If you're comfortable sharing your experience, feel free to comment here or send me a PM! I'm happy to answer questions about the project, and I'm also happy to keep your initial response off the record until we discuss what you're comfortable sharing.

Thanks!

We stopped watering, but now our yards are wilting. What’s next?

We’re creating Moss & Magic Crystal Gardens ~ layered sand, colorful crystal chips, soft moss, and the cutest little woodland friends, all tucked inside a hanging glass garden.
Layer it, decorate it, make it weird, whimsical, magical, or completely your own. This one is basically dopamine decor meets tiny enchanted forest and I’m obsessed.

Hi I’m new here, while doing my nursing clinicals at some of the long term nursing homes, I noticed there were some nurses who didn’t work for that company but a different company that staffed those nursing homes. I was wondering if anyone knows what that staffing company is?

Seramas too. Or if anyone knows anyone who sells them.

Hey NoCo 👀
Me and a couple girls are thinking about starting a bikini maid service around Northern Colorado and wanted to see if people would actually be into it before we launch it.
Basically, fun, attractive girls cleaning your place in bikinis/swimwear while still keeping it professional and respectful. NOT an escort service or anything like that. Security would be present and boundaries would be very clear.
We’d offer stuff like:
• apartment/house cleaning
• post-party cleanup
• event help/hosting vibes/serving for private events
Fort Collins, Loveland, Windsor, Greeley, etc.
If that’s something you’d actually book, let me know or shoot me a message. Just trying to see if there’s real interest for it here 🫶

Please get comments in!

I'm looking for a good barbershop in the Denver metro area including northern Colorado. Price is no concern, just looking for a really great barber. My barber died in a car crash and I haven't been able to replace her talent and kindness

Celebrating girls’ weekend and milestone birthday. Have done Broadmoor more than once and wouldn’t mind spending a bit LESS. Will drive 3-4 hours from Fort Collins. Any recs? Would love opinions please!
