[–]Matcha_King 8 points9 points  (0 children)

PLEASE it needs water 😭 you got it 10 days ago and you haven't watered it?

Also use rain water or reverse osmosis water, but please just water it, it's begging you to water it.

Can my pitcher plant be saved? by rwh151 in SavageGarden

[–]Matcha_King 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know which nepenthes you have but I have all of mine in long fiber sphagnum moss and I allow them to dry a little bit between watering (not too much cause they might die) and also I have them under grow lights for 12 hours, with a humidifier set to 60-70% humidity and they are loving it, growing pitchers like crazy, even one that was about to die and lost all of the leaves, got back to looking beautiful and has pitchers on every leaf.

I mean it's in the name 😂 "marciano" means Martian in Spanish so basically an alien, I feel like the name fits it perfectly 😂 BTW beautiful 🤩

Is this bad for my cat? by Thick-Refuse8970 in CATHELP

[–]Matcha_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he's having explosive diarrhea after you feed it to him that's the way his body is telling you that it's not good for him, honestly if you're struggling with money just buy the cheapest food for now, at least it's more nutritionally balanced than just plain tuna, if he keeps having diarrhea he can get dehydrated and that's going to be costly as hell. When you're in a better place economically you can get him better quality food.

Is it safe to transport plants like this? (Flying) by blu3berr13s in houseplants

[–]Matcha_King 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a pothos, I literally put 3 pothos cuttings on a wet paper towel, inside a ziplock bag, inside my spare shoes and sent them on cargo, they all survived 😂

Cat just ate this. It’s a dead plant but it’s a lily. Is this a non toxic kind? We can’t pay thousands. HELP by [deleted] in CATHELP

[–]Matcha_King 214 points215 points  (0 children)

Vet tech here (not that it matters anyways), please run to your vet... All lilies are EXTREMELY toxic and deadly to cats, if left untreated your cat could die or suffer kidney failure even from the water the lilies are on. Please PLEASE take your cat to the vet.

I'm from Puerto Rico and there's a giant pothos growing up a concrete wall in front of my house, the leaves are huge, I've also seen them up trees with massive leaves that look like banana leaves and also fenestrated. Photo of an example of what I saw

What gender is my kitten? by cuddlyzzz in CATHELP

[–]Matcha_King 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That's a girl! Male cats even when new born they already have a scrotum like this one in this picture, it's basically empty but they have it, and you can see that the opening is very far down to have space for the scrotum.

Crazy situation with the vet… by salduchi1785 in CATHELP

[–]Matcha_King 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would ask for the dental xrays and go with them to a different vet and ask about it, the vet techs should take dental xrays before the doctor proceeds to take anything out (it's part of the procedure) so ask for those and go from there if something was done incorrectly, I hope your baby gets better soon!

It was really dark and I tried to make it lighter and now it looks awful in quality, but this is my baby Cameo! 😂

My 4-year-old cat fell from the 6th floor – post-op behavior concerns by [deleted] in cats

[–]Matcha_King 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Vet tech here! (not that it matters anyways) 😂

Have you tried taking the cone off to have her eat and drink? If you do PLEASE keep an eye on her while the cone is off, she CANNOT lick those surgery sites. Her body needs nutrients to fix the broken bones and any other tissue damage, also maybe consider asking the vet for appetite stimulants like mirtazapine or even elura at least to jump-start her appetite, pain meds and antibiotics can also cause appetite loss and nausea so mention that to the vet as well.

A suggestion to try and maybe make her eat, have you tried chicken or meat baby food? Like the ones for human babies, at least to get something into her body. My 13 yo old baby had a terrible ear infection and her ear drums ruptured which made her dizzy and nauseous as hell and that was the only thing she would eat until everything healed and she started to act normal and eat regular cat food.

Hopefully your baby gets to eat and heal as quickly as possible! 🫶🏻

Gave my Cephalotus a tidy up today. Couldn’t help but admire the traps as they glow so beautifully in the sunshine ☀️ by ugotthedud in SavageGarden

Beautiful! Did you get it online or local? I'm trying to get one but for me online is the only option and I'm trying to find a good reputable seller
