article: Before you attempt to purchase a car, know whether you have filed for Chapter 13 or Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If you file for bankruptcy as an LLC or a business, then your bankruptcy falls under Chapter 11, which carries a different set of rules for asset seizure and debt repayment.  If you have filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, your debts are typically eliminated completely, and the process usually takes three to four months. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves repaying your creditors through a Chapter 13 repayment plan that typically lasts three to five years. The repayment plan involves paying a high portion of your monthly income towards debt repayment. Afterwards remaining debts are usually eliminated. For more information, see how to know the different between chapter 7 and chapter 13 bankruptcy Under both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy, your credit score will be badly damaged for some time to come. It can take up to 10 years to fully erase the impact of filing for bankruptcy (either Chapter 13 or 7). However, purchasing power through credit can usually be reestablished after 3 years if the initial debt situation was not too drastic. Every bankruptcy case is different and varies in relation to an individual’s income, the particular amount owed to creditors, and the types of assets an individual holds. Under Chapter 7 bankruptcy, a reasonably priced vehicle that provides you with transportation to necessary destinations, like work or the doctor’s office will usually not be seized to pay off your creditors. However, if you purchased a luxury vehicle, you may be forced to sell that vehicle, purchase a more affordable vehicle, and use the remaining portion for debt repayment. So, before considering the purchase of a new vehicle, see what options are available to you through a debt consultant. Unless you have sufficient cash to purchase a car, getting a car will mean acquiring new debt. While in bankruptcy, acquiring debt means facing potentially high interest rates (as high as 18%) and adding to your debt at a time when you are working to reduce it. Most importantly, you will need to prove to the court as well as your trustee that a car is necessary. If there are alternative options to owning a car (using public transit, walking, carpooling), utilize these first. This could save you significant amount in interest costs, and help you return to financial stability quicker. Your credit improves as you move further into the bankruptcy process. While it can take 10 years to restore your credit fully, you may be able to negotiate better financing options 1 or 2 years into the bankruptcy process. The longer you wait to purchase a new vehicle, the better payment terms you will get. Don’t be afraid to consult with a credit or debt specialist to gauge where your credit and financial situation is at throughout the process. While bankruptcy can be demoralizing and difficult to cope with, there are many resources to help you get through the process.  Consider local credit counselors or financial planners to start. A simple look through your phone book or online will indicate who is available in your region.

If, as they say, the way to a man's heart is his stomach, the same can be claimed as one way to demonstrate affection toward (and receive it from) your cat.  It is best to talk to your veterinarian regarding your cat's particular nutritional needs, but generally speaking, most cats need three to four smallish meals per day, preferably of high-quality cat foods.  Some human foods are all right for cats, but others are not, and it is best to check with your vet.  Give treats responsibly. Take care not to give the cat too many calories so deduct part of their regular food to compensate when giving treats. Forget about the saucer of milk. Cats have difficulty digesting cow's milk, and should instead be provided with clean water at all times (that is, keep the dish full of fresh water 24/7). Cats are often more sociable than people give them credit for, but they still like having some spots all to themselves.  Even if your cat likes to sleep on or near you regularly, provide it with a soft, comfortable, semi-isolated space of its own for sleeping and lounging.  Old (but clean) blankets, bedding, and pillows can do the trick. Likewise, your cat's litter box should be in a quiet yet accessible space, and should be cleaned daily.  If you have more than one cat, add one extra litter box (three boxes for two cats, for instance) to help prevent any “turf wars.” Your cat may not see it as such at the time, but what in the long run shows more affection than doing everything you can to ensure your cat lives a happy, healthy, long life?  Veterinary care recommendations for cats will vary according to factors such as age, health history, and vet preference, but one to two checkups per year is common. Starting as a kitten, make sure you keep your cat up-to-date on its vaccinations. Refer to How to Take Care of a Cat for detailed information on veterinary care and warning signs of cat illness to look out for. True enough, cats are quite adept at keeping themselves clean and looking good.  But a little help from you, properly applied, will be beneficial and (at least sometimes) appreciated.  Most cats will permit themselves to be brushed, if done gently and with the proper tool.  Try a pin brush for long-haired cats and a slicker brush for short-hairs.  Brush as needed to keep matting of fur to a minimum.  There are also specialized brushes and tools for more sensitive areas such as around the eyes. Brushing also provides an excellent opportunity to check for fleas and ticks. While less appreciated, brushing your cat's teeth and/or bringing it to the vet's office for dental cleanings is good practice as well.  How to Take Care of a Cat has information on feline dental care as well.
