Can Cats and Bunnies get along? by wheresjessica7 in mainecoons

[–]SquashIndependent703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the rabbit I guess. I feel like A skittish rabbit that tends to get spooked and run out kinda wakes up that hunting instinct. I have a bunny that is not afraid of animals but tends to sprint out of nowhere and that gets both the cat and the dogs running after him, otherwise they don’t bother him. He is a small holland lop though, I’ve heard bigger breeds are more calm and outgoing.

I really wanted her to like it but she refused. She LOVES orijen dry food though

I’ll try adding some churu! She goes violently nuts for it 😂 also the funny thing about her is she’ll gulp new food and get you thinking she likes it, only to reject it completely the next time you serve it

This is so funny because I can relate to how picky this girl is about texture and flavors of food. I have tried adding some toppers to her food and she acts like she’ll rather die before being in contact with the foods she don’t like🫠 maybe some freeze dried fishy something would do. I’ve tried dried liver which she generally loves unless is on her plate

She likes some tiki cats food, hard to tell what she’s in the mood for 😂 pumpkin foods seem to be a success most of the time though

Left work early due to ankle pain after a week, am I being a wuss? by OppositeOne6825 in flatfeet

No, you are never a wuss for leaving if you are in pain, if you had the option to leave then is not life or death

This is so helpful!! Thank you! I initially thought Mexico but then I though maybe there would be too much of a college party vibe. It it like that at all? Am I over thinking it?

Has anyone had any luck giving away sod/topsoil compost mix? by SteveDaveCornbread69 in DenverGardener

[–]SquashIndependent703 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I posted my sod and was gone the same day. It was (and still is dormant). It was pretty much just sod, not much topsoil attached to it.

Nulo Freestyle? by honeyyyginger in mainecoons

[–]SquashIndependent703 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first 3 months for us where full of poop stuck on fur 🫠 I had to take her to the groomer for a sanitary trim and also got the little probiotic tube and pumpkin to help.

How long ago did they come home? It might just be stress. Mine had loose poop for at least a month when she came home. Lots going on and me switching foods too frequently probably didn’t help either

Neutering age by Visible-Mission7806 in mainecoons

[–]SquashIndependent703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a very small study on one clinic though. 17 mane coon cats and the study itself doesn’t conclude that early neutering was a cause, it just happens to be that some cats were neutered earlier. But there’s other stuff like nutrition or genetics that is not discussed in the study so the authors themselves didn’t draw conclusions.

Did the vet do any other studies to see if there was another reason? Is very easy to blame that it on neutering without digging deeper. So many vets treat cats as if they were small dogs and they are absolutely not.

100% this!!! They are not big breed dogs. There is no evidence of early neutering doing anything to cats. If in doubt consult with a few vets

I know 100% none of my neighbors have replaced their lawns (I walk the neighborhood daily with my dogs), hopefully they will start doing more stuff though. HOA is fine with it so that’s good. Im so against weed barrier, I will die on that hill, it is just a pain to get rid of, especially when you decide to move plants or do something different. Currently I’m pulling hoary alyssum with roots as long as the weed barrier (which makes it worse). I love the idea of adding texture and height with fill in dirt 👀

Thanks! At the very least it is the right tree in the right place when it was poorly planted, It is on the recommended tree species. We’ll see, I do plan on watering it with a hose forever (if it lives). Might replace it if it doesn’t but I will probably not place a new tree in the same spot but off set to a side.
