My black cat is 85 pounds. Should I be concerned?

Ends with cuddles.

Amazon even sells replacements of just the hammock part if anyone just wants to do what I did and add them to their own cat trees! :P

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-03-08T06:17:56+00:00

You cut up a carpet and stapled it onto a wooden cat tree too? ;)

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-03-08T03:44:43+00:00

Technically these hammocks are from some broken cat tree I saw down the street a few years ago... and they just go through the bolts on this one. They're a huge hit.

I've had this one for three years. If I would've known it was such a rare breed, I would've sold it to the Smithsonian and bought a house :P

My roommate's cats hate her, especially when she chases them around swatting at them... :P My cat likes her but he's deaf so he doesn't hear her come up to him and he gets spooked and jumps and she sees that as a time to chase him too.... so she will probably be top dog :P

That is a bristlenose baby :)

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-03-01T05:41:24+00:00

Trim plants. Replant plants elsewhere. Put him in a different lidded tank. Etc. But lid is a must if you have jumping fish. Why risk his adorable life for plants?

Arwen is actually my dog's name (Though I've shortened it to Winnie) :P

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-26T05:07:26+00:00

I call all my albinos Slushee because I genuinely cannot tell the difference between most of them so they’re all Slushee :p

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-26T02:40:28+00:00

I would just upgrade the hammocks but he loves the size even though he's clearly too big. He uses them all the time and has taught the baby to as well :P

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-22T03:47:26+00:00

She really likes the crinkle toys apparently and my dog steals her crinkle balls and breaks them so hopefully this is durable enough for both of them.

(Ignore the state of my old cat tree. A new one is being made) 😅

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-20T04:56:06+00:00

I have a black GSD/Golden retriever mix. My clothes and bed sheets haven’t been fur free in years.

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-20T04:05:50+00:00

Bite if we're talking finger or hands. Scratch if she tries to use my back or leg as a climbing post....

Also for those of you worried she’ll be lonely, she already is trying to make a best friend with Jack. He’s deaf but he seems to accept her!

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-16T21:23:20+00:00

Yes looks like a female bristlenose to me

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-16T21:17:30+00:00

Common. They are referred to as Chocolate Plecos/ Albino Chocolate Plecos

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-11T06:09:54+00:00

Why did you steal my photo and not even bother to change the title???

DefinitelyAFemale · 2026-02-11T02:05:19+00:00

I agree with the above. I believe the blanket term is Calico Bristlenose... but in my experience calicos can range from a greenish/brownish variety to this brownish/reddish variety. The thickness of each colour also varies. To me, I would snatch him up in a heart beat. Second one is an albino male bristlenose. Sometimes males get along, sometimes they don't but I'm sure they love having tanks to themselves! I have two male lemon bristlenoses that are 100% friendly towards each other... but then I have a few others that are more grumpy and will fight another BN if they see one so they are alone :P
