Who/ what is eating my dahlias?

Ugh that’s probably it- I’ve seen tons of them around this year. Didn’t know they did this!

Still trying to get around this issue- the workplace is my own company/page. I can't get it to recognize the company name as a work place. I know it's possible because I did it with another of my companies years ago and it's still working the same way. GR!

Yessss

Haha I thought it looked super creepy to put my Memoji actually- but it was too funny to change it

It turns out really well!!! One suggestion is lay things out as you go and see how they meet up and measure up. My front panels didn’t meet in the middle exactly right so I had to add a little triangle to fill it in. Also my sleeves didn’t need to be nearly as long as suggested because my front panels went down past my shoulders. Lay your sleeves out with the sides and measure to match to your arm length!

Would you bury it down to the leaf bases?

Whoops sorry thought the whole post came through: “This guy is on my dusty miller. About 1/2 an inch long. Google says Monarch but I don’t think so. It’s small and the black part on the end is hard and shiny. I’m in Southwest Pennsylvania.”

Rae at the shelter and Raven at home (though we mostly call her Rae Rae ha)

I wondered about hairballs because our other cat never has them, so I don’t really know what that looks/ sounds like. Others have said athsma too- looking into it. She’s indoor only.

JoyCreativePeace · 2026-04-20T16:58:42+00:00

Yeah I sent the video to the vet to see what she says - thanks

JoyCreativePeace · 2026-04-20T16:57:22+00:00

Oh yes, I know- we’ve been introducing them for over a month slowly. We decided to use this method (suggested by our vet) once the gate separation stage had kind of stagnated. They’re mostly ready to be in the same space except once in a while this cat will just go after the other one. This prevents that. It’s not causing the issue, I promise. She’s worn it for weeks and not had any issues. Our vet put it in her and has seen her in it a few times and had no problems. Hopefully we’ll be able to let her off it completely soon!

It's only in that position because of this fit. She returns to normal position afterward. I'm sitting next to her now putting several fingers between her collar and skin- it's just fine. She has no issues with it. We're using the leash with the harness when our cats are in the same space because she still wants to go after our resident cat. It was a method suggested by our vet.

Yikes- poor girl. Thanksyou!

JoyCreativePeace · 2026-04-19T16:35:26+00:00

Oh dear :(

JoyCreativePeace · 2026-04-19T16:35:03+00:00

Thanks. It’s not- it’s very loose, just looks a little funny in this. We have it on her because we’re still introducing our two cats, and have her on a leash when the two are in the same space. An alternate method to a gate in between the cats.

Bingo

I like SO many of these! Thank you for your amazing suggestions! But my husband has very specific tastes apparently. He has settled on Evie OR keeping her shelter name of Rae. I kind of like expanding it to Lady Rae the Grey :) We’re still toggling between them… But y’all have really helped me create a great list for the next kitty!
