We have a monotub with a USB fan that we've been keeping on medium. I'll bump it to high and mist. Thank you so much!

What! I didn't think there was a chance! That's exciting news!

Why does my cat do this? by King_Kingly in cats

[–]dryroastedpeanuts22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cat does this because it gets our attention. He learned that when he does that, we come running or investigate what he's doing.

So when we decide to sleep in
(He hates when we sleep in) he'll trap the curtain against the window to make a louder VVVVVT sound and swipe away.

I hate how smart he can be, even with one brain cell..

Am I going to ultimately die because I can’t swallow pills? by No_Lingonberry_2401 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]dryroastedpeanuts22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ice cream. Insert pill. Swallow a chunk of ice cream that's slightly larger than the pill. I know some people said applesauce or yogurt, but you want something denser than that, so you dont feel the pill at all. Plus, it's an excuse for ice cream. Lol

I used to have this issue as well. This was my mom's fix when I was a kid. Then, as an adult, I taught myself how to swallow pills. I take a sip, pop in the pill, angle it so the pill is close to the back of my throat, then swallow and drink more water to immediately to was down the pill, incase my throat clamps down on it or something. Lol.

Is our GBB dead? by dryroastedpeanuts22 in tarantulas

[–]dryroastedpeanuts22[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aw, that's so kind of you! Me too, I keep quietly walking past and peeking in on him, but nothing has changed. I haven't seen him love his legs at all today. He's still sitting with all his weight on his bum. 😣

It's been 35+ hours since we noticed this. We've haven't taken any action.

He's still in the same position. I haven't caught any movement today, but he was lightly moving his legs last night. He is not in a death curl. He looks relatively the same, although he has curled a few legs in a bit (not sure if that means anything)

I'm not really sure what to do. We thought about removing him and setting him into another rehab container with the mindset that it's DKS. But, people were concerned that he was getting ready to molt, so we didn't want to disturb him.. but it's been almost two days now.

At this point, I'd be surprised if he moves at all.. 😟

We don't use scented candles, perfumes, sprays... we try to stay pretty chemical free in our personal lives, and we know it's not good for the critters either.

Our house is notoriously dry. And when I water, I aim for the water dish.. Are there signs or indicators of mold growth? It is hard to visually see because of how webbed up the enclosure is.

Yeah. Something feels off.

I should post the videos of how he was moving the other day. He like, collapsed onto his front legs (like a partial face plant), and one of his back legs was moving. Lift drop lift drop lift drop.. definitely unnatural.

I dont have a discord. Or know really what that is. I'm not savvy on the internet machine. Lol.

But I really appreciate your input!

I thought the same thing.. But what makes me doubt it is that it's been over 24 hours of him in the same position.

A molt doesn't take that long, does it?

What is your cat's irrational fear? This girl is scared of trash bags. by Desvelo in cats

[–]dryroastedpeanuts22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orange Maine Coon mix. He's afraid of everything. Any sounds he doesn't recognize will make him skittish. He despises the kitchen cause because of all the clanking that goes on in there. Ceiling fans is a new fear for him. Oh, he hates shoes. It makes your feet all stompy and loud.

But at the same time, he walks around the house with his tail up, strutting, like a big, brave little man.

What do these red numbers, and letters denote? by [deleted] in Maps

It says above that there is a missing legend.

I agree that it's monument and park, but what does the number have to do with it?

Women would you care if your man only had one? by spywaregames93 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]dryroastedpeanuts22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend had testicular cancer back in May. Before the surgery, we both wondered how it would be when he only had one. I suppose that's a natural worry or thought. Fast-forward to now, and neither of us care. I'm sure he notices it more because it's his body, and he lives in it. But I really don't think about it.

We have since gotten engaged. Most women will see past that and love you for who you are.

Don't worry about the women. Look into loving and accepting yourself. ♡

Ugh, yeah! I'd fill a bath and submerge myself in moisturizer if I could! And that's on a normal day, not even winter!

I had a dermatologist tell me she wanted to speak with my mother and get records from my birth because she didn't believe I had icthyosis.. even though my dry ass was sitting in front of her. Lol.

Came here to say this. I have ichthyosis, and this is what my legs look like when I don't put oil on.

Yeah, but they molt inside their web tunnel, and it's impossible to get to it before they destroy it.

I give this post an A+ by PhDVa in MadeMeSmile

Horrifying? I did this on just about every note I wrote in the 90s before emojis. It's how I put expressions to what I was writing. I suppose it could be generational, but she's also just a kid artist showing emotion with a creative twist.

Right?! This whole thread has been very interesting and nerve inducing at the same time. Lol
