[ Cats ] Open Question : Help me with my cats’ diets? ?

I have two cats. One has had stomach issues off and on for a while now until we started feeding him wet food. Now he looks better and has no stomach problems. The issue is that before we would leave the dry food out for both of them all day because they don’t overeat and now I guess he’s used to eating on his schedule. I assumed he would immediately scarf down wet food but he just kind of licks up the gravy and walks away and I never even get to see if he is the one finishing it (I assume he is though because he is finally gaining a little weight and his coat looks good) . I can’t seem to find one he likes enough to eat all at once and my groomer said that’s what he should be doing. So my issue is now I have one cat that only likes dry food and one cat that can only eat wet food and both are used to having food out all the time and I need them on a schedule I guess…. But my schedule isn’t normal! I work retail! Ahhh I wish they could just both do the dry food or both just do wet food!

[ Higher Education (University +) ] Open Question : Law school for a JD or graduate school for an MBA?

I graduated last June with a BSc in finance and have yet to dive into the finance world and find a job. I went to a good university and graduated with a GPA higher than 3.0, made the dean’s list a few quarters, and was involved in a student finance association. I have absolutely no experience that I can add onto my resume other than one internship I had during my schooling and years of retail. I do have outstanding debt due to student loans as well, but it’s nothing outrageous. I know I want to get a higher education, but I’m not sure which route to take. It’s extremely disheartening to be out of school for almost a year and having no relative full time experience. This got me thinking about options. Law school came into mind because I have been told that I’m very articulate, have a strong voice, and I personally consider myself a great conversationalist and public speaker. To me, it sounds like I’d be a good fit as some type of Lawyer, generally speaking. I would like to know what route makes sense to take and the pros and cons of each. Is it easier to score high on the LSAT versus the GMAT? I have been told that getting into a top tier school for either law or an MBA does matter as far as job prospects/availability. I am at a fork in the road and would really like to figure out which path to take so I can finally begin my career. I also am under the impression that going to law school or getting an MBA will cost a high amount of money. So I would definitely be in more debt than I already am. Any and all advice to help me decide would be greatly appreciated.
