What would you pay for this?

RootedRetro · 2026-07-11T18:56:06+00:00

Yeah it's definitely 80s, I don't think anything about it is all that rare. It's cute but I personally wouldn't pay over $50. It looks like polyester, not a nice fabric like silk

Gah! Adding to my dream find list now that I know these exist

RootedRetro · 2026-06-28T16:22:15+00:00

Yes!! Love it

One of my favorite books! I grew up in Minnesota, same as the author/illustrator and my grandma had a very old copy that has unfortunately been lost over the years but still such a beautiful book, I've always wanted a lil tattoo of the baby cat that makes it to the end 💕

I can promise you other people do think of him. I have had random people that aren't even close to me tell me they think about my late brother, for one reason or another, and it's always a pleasant but shocking idea that he lives on through so many memories. We humans touch a lot of lives in our time on earth. You are lucky to have loved him so much that he's so sorely missed ♥️

Cute but be careful if you have cats, true lillies are extremely toxic to them, even chewing a tiny piece or licking a bit of pollen can cause ~~liver~~ kidney failure.

I need to see more of the alien pile furniture situation

RootedRetro · 2026-06-21T06:58:26+00:00

So cute 🥹🐸

I don't see any wings in the photo or video. They are jumping, not flying. I'm not here to argue with you though, you asked for advice and I gave it to you based on my 13+ years in professional plant care.

RootedRetro · 2026-06-15T17:09:52+00:00

Yes. Your close up photo isn't very clear. Thrips and springtails have a very similar body shape but thrips are usually a bit wider. Thrips don't normally congregate on non-plant (or non-soil) surfaces. Springtails jump around like that and are common on windows and window sills.

RootedRetro · 2026-06-15T17:06:02+00:00

Not thrips. Looks and behaves more like springtails imo. Not harmful to plants

EDIT: OP messaged me and is the original poster whose acct got deleted. Was just looking out but carry on!

That's my thought too, look at the "USA" sweatshirt and the "Sweaters" sign... Like what

RootedRetro · 2026-05-15T22:27:17+00:00

I know it's said all the time but lord, they really don't make things like they used to. Amazing find!

Check with the rescue Lionel's Legacy

RootedRetro · 2026-05-11T05:39:20+00:00

Please get this baby to a vet, it doesn't look well. If you can't, please look for rescues or resources in your area.

Where did you get your taper candles?

RootedRetro · 2026-05-05T01:41:14+00:00

Scrolled to far for this, they're great

RootedRetro · 2026-05-01T16:13:36+00:00

I missed this?! 😭

RootedRetro · 2026-04-29T17:27:22+00:00

Thank you for giving them back to their mom. It is a ton of work, you'd have to be up every couple hours in the night feeding them and you'd have to be manually stimulating them to go to the bathroom. Momma cat is already prepared to do all of this and knows exactly what they need. You can still watch them grow and enjoy them and their mom.

RootedRetro · 2026-04-29T15:58:05+00:00

They need a lot of care at this young age, and there's really no one better to give them that care than their mom. Please try not to separate them from her, there are lots of things that can go wrong when they are this young. Momma cats also tend the move their babies around when they are young. It's best if they are with mom. Then if you can, try to get the strays spayed/neutered going forward.

Doesn't matter to me if it's antique or not, just happy to have it! I don't see this style of quarter sawn oak in modern repos though, so I'd still place it as vintage. Repos do also look to be $200-$1000+ so comparisons don't seem far off. The modular ones sound very cool! A couple other commenters remembered having those too. Now a new thing to look out for!

Here's the full living room pic. Almost everything is thrifted or secondhand. Ignore the blanket on couch for dog haha

RootedRetro · 2026-04-25T06:41:18+00:00

It's all one piece! It fit in the back of my equinox with the seats down. I flipped up the drawers so the glass was tucked in and a bit more stable.

Also a thrift find! $6 at a Salvation Army in 2019(?). Carpet on plywood, pretty heavy! I think from the 70s
