I definitely agree and appreciate this. Due to the way my youth was so hmm.. chaotic, I pretty much withdrew from things. Ironically it was my mother who got me professional help. I’ve learned.how to take myself quite a bit less seriously, especially with those who’ve known me for a bit. It also helps to be able to lose myself in watery worlds. Also will help to get another purry furbaby in 2-3 weeks.
If we could all be as empathic as our fur babies, I wonder what life would be like? They truly know how to express love and affection.
What kind of kitty are you getting? I want a British shorthair in the future. My Scottish fold hopefully has quite some time left, she just turned 9 this month.
The two we had were basically just moggies. Calico shorthair and half Abby for our second. We really have no huge preference as both kitties were rescues.
What a hero.
Understand that. I’m pretty sensitive to cat dander as well, but when it’s my turn to take care of cats, I’m all over it. Ron is the only one I trust taking care of my tank when I have to go somewhere. For me, he tells me four things to do. For him, I give him a 3 page document of everything he has to check on the tank. Haha! I got the better deal.
My wife keeps taking in strays, that's how I ended up with Bean. Although he's an amazing companion cat, his mom and dad, and all the other cats in the neighborhood, pop in constantly to our porch and pool area.
Mystery solved! Bean Animal is @StatelineReefer s pet profile that he uses when he’s in a bad mood.
No, my bean doesn't go on rants when he's called... he just looks at you funny and lays back down.
When everyone around me are in total chaos, that’s when I become the calmest. It’s like they suck up all the bad vibes in the room and I relax. Allows me to focus and lead without going mustang myself.
There was a turtle at a sanctuary I visited in Florida that had buoyancy issues so he had to wear a life jacket all of the time. It was both sad and adorable!
Never thought about it but turtles have the same issues we do!
Acros can take a while to color back up if they lose it in tank. They usually lose some during shipping but that recolors quick. If iodine, iron, potassium, phosphate, nitrate are good it should start coloring back up with time.Need opinions on this guy. It’s a no name freebie that I’ve had since February. Originally blue and yellow. Lost all its color and I thought it was a goner, but it’s still here and fluoresces brightly under UV at night. About a month ago (after the big 50% water change), all its polyps came out and they are still showing excellent extension. But, no color yet. The little arms on the sides are growing longer. I assume it’s healthy, but wondering why it’s still almost white. Can’t figure out how to understand what’s going on with it. Picture is fuzzy because it’s a good bit away from the tank side and the polyps are every where with the flow on.
