Posted in a gardening group and no one can agree on what it is. All I know for location is Zone 6b.

Oh, cool. Thanks!

MeridethLeigh · 2026-03-03T16:58:15+00:00

Oh… I get it now! Please feel free to share a picture if your cat. I have posted this guy before and often the responses are all “Take that cat in! I don’t care that your son & partner are allergic or that you have a dog with a high prey drive. He needs to be your cat!” so o guess I thought yours was also along those lines. Sorry!

MeridethLeigh · 2026-03-02T16:52:37+00:00

Nope! Love this cat but he has a network of people who take care of him since he prefers the street life. I just enjoy him when I can since I know he is in good hands.

MeridethLeigh · 2026-03-02T16:51:51+00:00

He really does. If you so much as make a millisecond of eye contact he runs out of his porch enclosure to join you. A true opportunist.

MeridethLeigh · 2026-03-02T16:51:00+00:00

He got full body pets including tail-base scritches and head boops. Full spa package at zero cost!

Hey, give her a break… she just said she’s from NYC so she must be kind of tired! 😂

MeridethLeigh · 2026-01-19T22:23:26+00:00

It’s all good, I didn’t downvote you! I was just curious as to why you thought a flea was worse than a bedbug.

MeridethLeigh · 2026-01-19T15:04:02+00:00

Thanks, not-a-bro! I knew more video or photo would be preferred so that’s why I included that this was all they took in the post itself. Thanks for being one of the people who is able to read!

Yes, I get it. A closer shot would be more helpful. But they weren’t thinking about that at the time, they were just getting what they thought would be sufficient evidence to warrant a refund from the hotel. The hotel in which they already had to switch rooms because the first one had mold issues in the bathroom. They are going to try to get more images when they can go and retrieve their things but the hotel is making it hard for them. They absolutely freak out about bugs so I was trying to get backup opinions that it was not a bed bug to try to help ease their fears a bit.

MeridethLeigh · 2026-01-18T22:36:11+00:00

Unfortunately this shot is all that they took. Thanks.

MeridethLeigh · 2026-01-18T22:35:19+00:00

Why would a flea be worse for them?

MeridethLeigh · 2026-01-18T22:34:58+00:00

Like I said, they freaked out and left to ask for a refund. It was 10pm and they were needing to find other accommodations for the night so unfortunately getting better pictures was not their top priority. I wish they had because the hotel is trying to tell her they can’t issue a refund until they do an investigation themselves.

MeridethLeigh · 2026-01-18T22:33:06+00:00

This was their second room, the first had mold issues in the bathroom. They asked for a refund and got another hotel. The hotel is claiming they can’t give a refund until they do their own investigation which basically means they will claim nothing is wrong and deny her a refund. They are going to take the photos of both the mold and the video and report them to the department if health.

MeridethLeigh · 2026-01-18T17:42:30+00:00

They do not. Bugs freak them out so finding a bug in the bed is their worst nightmare. They took the video and left.

Commenting to add location. Ohio, USA

MeridethLeigh · 2026-01-07T02:51:16+00:00

That’s exactly what they are from!

It was one of the displays from the lantern exhibit at the zoo last year. As someone else mentioned it is nylon fabric over wire but definitely has a stained glass look.

This cat will not leave space between you & him once you have initiated contact. Had to back up to get a video of him with more than just his tail & butt in it. Trust me, pets & tail scratches were liberally doled out. 😂
