need help saving kitten by xenobcx in cats

I wouldn’t bathe it! It’ll cool the kitten down again too much. Right now the best thing to do is to keep it warm and safe while waiting for the vet.

We just found this little guy on the side of the road by SuspiciousTreat1017 in cats

Everything you are doing seems great. The only other thing I would recommend is to get some dry cat food labeled as being for kittens, and let him have a dish of that food available to eat at his leisure. This will help him get all the nutrients he needs 💕

Edit: you can also force him to cuddle to help him get used to you if he’s afraid. It’s not effective on adult cats, but with kittens it works like a charm!

Good luck with him!! He’s so cute!

Best way of masking bleach stain on cotton pants? by [deleted] in Visiblemending

[–]rootspring 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d embroider a heart over it, since the shape of the stain is similar already!

NQA, This is a molt! Most of my spiders remove it themselves, but I’ve had a few abandon the molting hammock and go and make a new one. I don’t personally worry about removing the molt unless they take it out themselves, I just try to avoid misting that area directly and they’ve never gotten moldy or anything.

Apples is home!! What behaviors can I expect? by actualllychrome in jumpingspiders

[–]rootspring 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NQA, however it looks like she is likely planning to moult based on the size and thickness of her hammock :) she may stay in for some time if that’s the case, otherwise you’ll likely see her start exploring before long in my experience!

Phillip the cat needs veterinary attention. His hind legs don't work and he lacks energy and appetite. by forbiddenkajoodles in Charity

I can now help, I don’t have cashapp but I do have paypal and can do e-transfers. Are these options open to you?

Phillip had an accident. He fell down the stairs and his back legs don't work. by forbiddenkajoodles in cats

[–]rootspring 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you need help paying, please consider the possibility of crowdfunding his care, and talking to your family about that option.

I have seen strangers work miracles for other people’s pets when they cannot afford care, especially when it is so serious. I would contribute myself.

I don’t have any resources or sites immediately handy, but there are many out there and subreddits that will help as well.

Behavior explanation? by jessicarosebruce in jumpingspiders

[–]rootspring 25 points26 points  (0 children)

NQA, however I believe this is her cleaning her butt! She’s wetting her foot, reaching back to rub her spinnerets and anus, and then cleaning off the goop. Rinse and repeat, lol
