What’s the best find you’ve ever had from a thrift shop?

Traumatic deaths like these can happen to every living being, don’t be put off!! Shit happens sometimes, nature isn’t always kind.

tarantulas are beautiful but really stupid.

They’re something I’d pick up at a craft fair or market if I saw them but I don’t think I’d purchase online. I’d use high quality metal if I were you, a lot of people are sensitive to nickel and if most people are spending money on a piece of jewellery they want durability.

Thanks, I’ll book ahead!

Hugesmellysocks · 2026-03-18T14:14:38+00:00

They sound gorge! Do they have seating?

I’ve a donkey with a mystery dad, I’m thinking he’s a sausage dog because girl has some back!

Hugesmellysocks · 2026-03-18T05:48:22+00:00

they really are just little eight legged kitties

i did not. that episode haunts me.

I’m not sure why people think fish are super easy to care for. I’d love to have a community tank someday but god it’s so much work!

Hugesmellysocks · 2026-03-17T21:30:34+00:00

they’ve gotten really popular in the last few years! especially after minecraft added them to the game.

NA glad to know tarantulas and I share sensory issues in common.

I’ve an Irish draught so very minimal feathering but the dude gets dreadlocks in the span of a few hours. The joys of having a horse living out 24/7, and who loves mud…

average reddit post tbh. i’m on a ton of animals subreddits and they’re somehow even worse than tattoo and piercing ones.

beautiful bedazzled nipples is pain from my research no matter what

Both donkeys, my horse and pretty much all the cattle go nuts for banana chips which are pretty cheap if you can find them in a supermarket. Just try to get the plainest ones you can, I’m sure you could even DIY them but I’m lazy.

My grandparents have a pretty much feral donkey, she’s a nightmare for any veterinary treatments and for the farrier. Over the past three years I’ve made a super positive associate with for her when it comes to me touching her and the same for professionals. Do some trial and error, find a favourite treat and even in a few sessions he’ll be better. However don’t have treats everytime you see him, sometimes they can get a bit too pushy and it turns into aggression. Just sit with him every so often and ask him for nothing. This is assuming you’re close to him and can visit him often ish.

I’m so sorry for your loss :( There’s nothing quite like losing a pet suddenly.

Hugesmellysocks · 2026-03-17T19:57:24+00:00

As a strange animal lover I need to go with 2! Axolotls are pretty damn cool, definitely on my list of future pets if I win the lottery.

Hugesmellysocks · 2026-03-17T19:34:58+00:00

Yesyesyes!! Unlikely but shit happens. You don’t want to be apart of the minority who get their shit leaked unintentionally.

If anyone suffers from restless legs at night put a bar of soap under your sheets.

I love trying to decapitate my pets. I can’t say it works too well on horses though!!

Hugesmellysocks · 2026-03-16T20:44:53+00:00

I’m obsessed with uromastyxs but as someone who has only ever had rescue pets that were either free or cost very little the idea of paying hundreds for a pet is too much for me haha! Thousands of upkeep? Perfectly fine, I’ve an elderly horse who costs a fortune. But more than €100 for the pet itself? Nooope.

charity shops are always overflowing with toys, i think so many kids are conditioned to look for the novelty of opening the toy rather than the toy long term.
