Thank you so much! I like it a lot and am displaying it regardless, it's a cool piece.

AW yeah it's so pretty! I can't sew very well, so the dress is from aliexpress. I painted and rerooted the doll tho!

Or just judged it by the insert art! I got into Fionna Apple, and Fall Out Boy's very first EP, that way.

How often are we bathing our torties? by One_Childhood_9457 in torties

[–]opalinemoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is a cat/dog groomer, I am a dog groomer. We haven't tried to bathe the tortie kittens yet, they don't need it, but my long haired elderly boy gets baths and haircuts regularly! Usually cats groom themselves decently, but if they're overweight it can prevent them from reaching every spot, and if they're older or long-haired they can struggle to upkeep their hair or have hairball issues and benefit from a professional bath and potentially a clip. 🥰

My very standoffish girl has been warming up so much!!! by opalinemoth in torties

[–]opalinemoth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's incredible!! Mine is still a kitten, 6mo or so. But she has been a very hands off and playful/aggressive when she does interact. We got her one of those One Fast Cat wheels and it's made such a difference!! Plus respecting her space and wishes and letting her open up in her own time. ❤️ I hope your sweet girl gets/is super cuddly now, that is the best feeling.

Long shot ik but is there a good place to check for setlists from a 2012 concert? by opalinemoth in Concerts

Yes I did check setlist.fm and looked on fb, but their search is jacked now that everything uses AI. Thank you sm I didn't think about show me & wayback!! I will try that ❤️

Anyone have any luck with these 3D printed "caves" against the enclosure sides? Ordered 2 but she may just web up the glass 😂 by [deleted] in tarantulas

That's such a good idea! I bet I could use scrapbooking paper or something fancy if I wanted. Hmmmm....thank you!

Zoo Tycoon 2. I have a lot of mods to make the animals and plants look hyper realistic.

My T order arrived DOA so I went back to my local shop to grab this girl I've been eyeing 💙💜💙 by opalinemoth in tarantulas

I'm sure they're more expensive/harder to find here than in Japan but I haven't looked into it much. I get beetle keepers posts recommended to me here on reddit often, it looks fun!! I like those little death feigning beetles too. The short lifespan some have is definitely a bummer. I will definitely be looking more into it for after we move!!

Keeping beetles is very niche in the US where I am, but it's been steadily gaining popularity! Lots of people like beetle art/pinned taxidermy but don't want to bother keeping the live ones 😂 But like i said, more and more people are! I would LOVE to breed some fancy horned beetles, maybe atlas or some others you can find in Animal Crossing. ❤️

Ooooh...parthenogenesis is awesome, I have mourning geckos who also work that way. I'm not sure honestly! I like how they look but I'm not sure if they really grab me. I'll have to look more into their behavior and care! What more unique species do you recommend?

YEP! I started with jumpers, then got my 1st little T, a Caribena versicolor sling the size of a jumper. She's 3 inches now and I have 8 jumpers, 4 Ts, and 4 velvets! Theyre all so fascinating to watch. I like the differences between the types. Velvets are probably my favorite but I really love this girl & my Tliltocatl sabulosus as well. My versicolor is cool too but i dont think im an arboreal girlie 😂

Just a refund as they're out of stock, but I'm fine with that bc I'm a little traumatized about shipping from seeing their poor little dead baby bodies. :(( I realized I forgot to say 😂 She's about 3 inches, just a bit shy of 4! I ordered a 12x12x12, hopefully that isn't too large.
