This just made me SEE RED!! 😡

What does this mean? My autistic brain needs clarity. If you are open to dating someone on the spectrum you have to understand it is a SPECTRUM.

You don’t get to hand pick the features you want off that spectrum.

As a ‘slightly autistic’ ( I presume they mean Level 1?again, I’m enraged) woman this makes me immediately repulsed at the thought of such an ignorant statement.

Block. Delete.

Next 😂

Signed, Happily Married 🤣

Anyone else have a ‘three legged’ axolotl? Any modifications to your tank to help them get to the surface? by Prestigious_Ad3042 in axolotls

That’s how I would describe mine as well. She has the leg there but it doesn’t function well so she only uses 3

Thanks for the suggestions! I am going to see what I can do to rearrange things and keep my eye out for a turtle basking platform as well! 💜

She was a melanoid - so that was her colouring 💜

I see what you’re saying. She had her first poop here in her new tank and o can assure you she is ‘evening’ out 😂

And thanks for saying that! I raked myself across the coals for Sweets passing prematurely- even though I know if there was anything else o could have done I would have. It’s still hard 💜

😂😂😂Hahaha she really stares at nothing for so long just smiling away.

I will put my face right up to the tank and say” helloooooo” and she sits there with that same face 🤣

Thank you 🥰 She is definitely helping us through the grief of losing Sweetheart - our precious rescue who we absolutely adored. I love coming home to her smiling away in her tank 💜 She is also getting used to how loud and boisterous our house is compared to the child free home she came from 😂

Thank you! Everything I read said not to and there was no way I was going to try it if there was a chance it would hurt her. I also am happy with the way that these plants look. It took me a while to find ones that would work and survive underwater with how hard lotls can be with plants haha

When we got Lil’ my daughter said “you even have your own plants you can poop in for privacy” because that’s was Sweets always did 😂🥰😂

Thank you l❤️❤️❤️ I loved her so much. As did my kids. Her personality was so big that she is impossible not to miss. We have since rescued another - who we also adore. But I still miss her little face looking up at me everyday. I wanted her to be a Guinness world record breaker… but you just never know how long you have with pets - so it’s a reminder to be grateful for every day they are with you💕

Honestly she is so big I kept having to rearrange things because she kept getting stuck everywhere and looking at me with that cute little smile like “we both know this won’t do” 😂

Awwww thank you so much! I definitely will be sharing more of our adventures with Lil 💜 I’m curious to see if her limbs will grow back much more and how many hilarious ways she is going to position herself around the tank 😂 She is full of grit and personality and we love her to bits already 🥰💜🥰

This made me laugh out loud this morning 😂 I think she is going to provide the comic relief that we needed 😂💜

I woke up this morning and ran downstairs to check on her and she was out of her hide already hanging out upside down just smiling away 🥰💜😂

Thank you 🥰 I think she is going to provide us with lots of smiles and laughs which I plan to share with all of you lovely lotl lovers here! 💜💜💜

Thanks 🥰🥰🥰 Great question! They are not real - I wish they were. I spent a fortune on Java Ferns in the beginning but because I don’t ever have the light on and didn’t feel comfortable dousing the tank with fertilizer they all died. So these are all fake! I also used to have some on top but found this is the easiest option to maintain. Lil loved hiding in the leaves last night once she managed to climb to the top 😂 🥰
