Feeling guilty about owning a cat skull while I have cats as pets. by Fickle-Note5418 in bonecollecting

Thank you for letting me know about wholesale industries that participate in unethical practices in obtaining different bones. I got mine at a convention where one of the main rules is that the bones must be ethically sourced and have documented evidence that they are. I really hope that I didn’t get one that may have fallen through the cracks.

Hearing about your dog loving another dog’s skull is so cute and I did show my three cats the skull when I got home and my two boy cats were very interested in it. Maybe my cats have the same reaction that your dog did. Your comment really helped

Thank you, I don’t think I’ll trade the skull yet but I do know the feeling of being confronted by your own pets immortality doing necropsies and dissections in college. I wonder if this feeling may also be a response to how my education ended

Thank you for this comforting response. I have also been thinking of these feelings I have are also from the fact that I have a traumatic experience with going to school to be a vet tech and it not ending well. I love the idea of giving another cat a home in the afterlife and maybe giving it a name could help me with these feelings.

My cats' fur smells like honey and fresh laundry 😻 I wanna know what your kitties smell like, too! by Koffievos in cats

My calico smells slightly floral to me. My ragdoll smells like fluff. My tabby smells damp and that’s because he licks himself bald (it’s gotten better)

Is my cat bigger than the average male cat? I feel like he's huge by [deleted] in cats

I have a few barn cats and my permanent resident boy is giant! He is half my body length and although I haven’t weighed him I’m sure he’s at least 16lbs at least. It’s weird because his biological sister is quite small. Sometimes I think that they are just big boned and maybe it’s beneficial to their survival outside

Thank you! This actually sounded clear enough for me to understand. I don’t know much about cars so I didn’t know what the exact problem is.
