I really want a red tail boa, but co-owner isn't a fan of boas, plus balls a super first snakes.For me my biggest soft spot has always been for leopard geckos, but baby sneks are definitely high up there.
I can agree on the co-owner's lack of enthusiasm about red tails. I think they just get too big and unwieldy after a while. Definitely not impossible to own or anything, but something you should work up to haha.
Co-owner would also be excited if I said I wanted to get a retic, so large and unweildy isn't the problem! He just doesn't like boas. I actually caught a wild red tail in Honduras... It was awesome.
They're so small. And so orange!
Aaaahhhhh ... smiling ... look at those two furry little orange cutie-pies - adorable and looking so very innocent!Guys, I did the thing.
Yaaaas
I'm quietly wondering if I'm watching someone use SDN to document the process of going from foster to foster failure.
Hopefully no. I'm not in a real position to take on two more cats. My own cat has been giving these two the stink eye since they arrived too.I'm quietly wondering if I'm watching someone use SDN to document the process of going from foster to foster failure.
Yeah, but the other cat just needs some time.
I dunno. Last summer I cat-sat for three months. I don't think Juniper ever got over him being around.
3 months is a drop in the bucket for cats
Alas, my 12-year-old baby pictured in my avatar hates other animals, plus my SO is severely allergic to cats, so it would be a really bad idea to get another cat. The boyfriend and I have been talking about our future a lot lately, so it's really starting to sink in that if he and I end up getting married, I'll have to be content with just owning dogs (and maybe pocket pets and/or reptiles). Of course I'll still have feline patients, and my parents' kitties to visit, but it's weird and a bit sad to think about.
my husband is also really allergic. But he controls it on daily meds (claritin or equivalent) and other meds. But he knew cats were required.I've wanted an orange kitty for years and you all aren't helping!
And now she is curled up in her bed, fast asleep
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I love that angry face. Poor Jack
I couldn't convince my parents to let me take him while I was living here, and don't want to introduce him to my two in a one bedroom apartment when I won't have room for each of the kitties to have their own space during intros.
He's on daily prescription allergy meds (can't remember the name of it at the moment), but that basically just means he can be in a house with cats for a few hours if the cats are kept separate, and he might still get sneezy but he's not miserable for days afterward. He also has pretty bad asthma. Maybe someday once he has health insurance he'll be able to try allergy shots or something stronger, but I don't want to get my hopes up.
Honestly I'm really excited for whenever I'll be able to get a dog, I've only ever had cats, fish, and a gerbil.
I love the piebald ones...but they're so pricey(not pricey like the first ones you listed though, ha!). I'd like a corn snake one day.
That's awesome! My one year anniversary of taking Lil Mac home was last week. Time sure does fly!I can't believe it's been 2 years already with this fluff monster. His official gotcha day isn't until August 4th but his trial period at home with me and my family started July 25th. I love my Gandalf so much

Mine ended up with URIs and I got to keep them an extra week while they got better. It happens since they come from such a highly populated environment and their immune systems don't tend to be the greatest (URIs in shelter cats are super common). It's one good reason to keep fosters separated from your personal pets.
Definitely, my cat stays in the living room and the fosters are both in the bedroom. Right now, the sneezy one is in the bathroom, actually.
Poor little one, hope he gets better quickly.
That's because female orange cats tend to be evil.
Because they are secretly torties
torties are crazy. Orange girls are evil. there's a definite difference.
My new betta doesn't want to eat. He spends all his time resting against the filter. I'm afraid he's not going to make it.
I sorry. It's really hard to tell what is wrong with them sometimes, so hard to treat. Have you checked all your water parameters?
) Went to check the chickens after I got home from work and discovered one peeping hatchling, still a tiny bit wet! I don't know if any of their other eggs are viable/close to hatch (hard to look since these 2 angry hens have decided to share one nest box for some reason...) a few looked pipped but I didn't hear anything so those may just be cracked.
Found two more fleas on fleabag kitten. Becoming more paranoid and keep thinking I feel bugs on me. I don't have the authority to apply flea meds to the kittens on my own, but definitely going to pick up some for my own cat tomorrow. Both kittens see the vet on Tuesday and I will definitely push for a re-treatment or a more effective treatment.
