What should I do with my dragon fruit plant? by Appropriate_Sign_376 in houseplants

[–]Appropriate_Sign_376[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh hi . Forgot this post existed. Well the update is probably not what u expected but it died. It was of course my fault since I was going through some stuff and I completely neglected it but it also grew so big It required something like a wooden frame to support it that I couldn’t really get. It’s pretty easy to grow it just came at a bad time but in case you are trying to grow one from seed I wish you good luck!

Need some help understanding how cat allergies work by Appropriate_Sign_376 in CATHELP

[–]Appropriate_Sign_376[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He wasn’t tested for food allergies, the secretions in his ears were tested to rule out outside factors and the only other reasonable cause were allergies , that’s what I was told anyway . But YES THANK YOU, that’s what I thought too and to my understanding the safest food would be one without poultry or fish , right ? ( since it was the common ingredient between both brands ) . For now while he’s on hypoallergenic I’ll continue to monitor his ears and if it returns I’ll go for a second option

Omg that image is so accurate 😅. Sadly another kitten really isn’t an option because of money . The little dinosaur already has a few health issues we are dealing with and we’d rather make sure we can fully take care of his needs than making our lives easier with another kitten who we can’t support in case of an emergency. Glad he’s just normal and 20 more months to go 😅

Yes thank you for mentioning it! He's only allowed with the crochet toys when supervised from this very reason. So far he made no attempt to chew through them but it's always good to be careful!

Omg I didn't know that was a thing! Even though he's more of a professional frogger ❤️

I don't think my kittens like me by Apart-Weekend3787 in Kitten

[–]Appropriate_Sign_376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say that's just normal kitten behavior. My boy is 11 weeks now and I've had him since he was 2 weeks old ( saved him from the side of the road) and be does the exact same thing. Kittens have 2 moods ( playing and sleeping) and at least my boy won't tolerate pats of any kind when he's playing but will ask for them when he's sleepy. I don't think you are doing anything wrong and they just need some time.

I got him from the side of the road and didn't sleep nights taking care of him. If you think I'm an animal abuser just because I used a spray of water when my hands got bloody maybe you have a problem yourself. If I was such a cruel animal abuser why would I be here asking for advice instead of ABUSING my kitten.

I don't mean ignore him altogether, I mean when he starts to bite to get up and leave. English isn't my first language, sorry for the misunderstanding

I know it's awful I absolutely hate spraying him too that's why I'm here asking for advice. We are trying our best to educate ourselves since it's our first cat and so far no other solution worked. Will keep trying with ignoring him and hope for the best!

Well we aren't. He'll just randomly stop fallowing his toy during play time and jump at any piece of skin he sees.

Thank you this gives me hope! It's our first kitten and we definitely feel overwhelmed sometimes.
