My idiot neighbors left their kittens when they were moving out. I'm feeding them inside the apartment but it's a matter of time that other neighbors will whine about it and kick them out. What should I do?

take them into your apartment. how many are they?

Track down the neighbors who left and execute them. That pisses me off

I bought a seemingly fucking awesome used tufted microfiber couch off Craigslist. Mechanical recliners work smooth as fuck it's beautiful. The people we bought it from had a beautiful house, very nice furniture, nice white folk. Right after we load it on the truck, I sit on it and it smells faintly of cat, like cat litter. I didn't think anything of it. I didn't mind, I love cats. It didn't smell horrible until we actually put it in the living room. My entire house smells like fucking cat piss and I'm losing my mind. My three dogs have laid on it and are tracking the smell around. I'm losing my goddamn mind I never want a fucking cat ever. Fuck. Since we got it at 10am, I've sprayed an entire bottle of Lysol disinfectant spray and an entire bottle of Febreez fabric freshener on it. Nothing. Worse probably. Now I'm paranoid that everything will smell like piss. That my dogs will track it on my bed.

I just finished dumping a whole box of baking soda on it. I'll leave it overnight and vacuum it tomorrow after I get out of work. Any other suggestions? Please help. I cannot deal. My couch looks like brownies with powdered sugar. Pic related is just the recliner.

call a carpet cleaning company that does upholstery cleaning.

in the end it's probably cheaper to throw it away and buy new stuff.
>>
>>2454877
Get rid of it. Idk how you only noticed once you brought it in though.

>>2454883
It's been there for so long that I don't think steam cleaning can help. Generally that just makes it smell worse because it brings all the things that make it smell to the surface.

>Idk how you only noticed once you brought it in though
it probably only had a faint smell but OP's dogs pissed on it.

And slime molds edition

Post your giant amoebas and dripping metaorganisms.

It is a little late in the season, but anyone who has warm and wet conditions is probably experiencing slime mold activity. Check on logs the morning following a rainy night

That's right!
Today's example is Sand Fleas after some teen had THE FUCKING SKIN ON HIS FEET EATEN AWAY:

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=11899545

Followed by the classic, the Gympie Tree:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HOIQjILUBg

A tree known as having a sting so painful that fucking HORSES are said to have committed suicide (by jumping off a cliff) after brushing up against it. Whether or not it's true- the pain is excruciating and the recommendation for removing the stingers from your body is to literally pour hydrochloric acid over the area in question. If you don't, it can release poisons for up to a year later.
It's said someone killed themselves after somehow wiping their ass with it while in camp in the wild (probably in just a random bunch for the forest floor).

Reptile classifieds for finding breeders of various scaled and sundry creatures

>kingsnake.com
>faunaclassifieds.com
>reptilescanada.com (Canadian breeders)
>caudata.org for newts, salamanders and lots more amphibians
>Also check to see if there are any annual reptile shows/expos in your area as these are good places to find good animals from good breeders at partial discount


/herp/ officially official all purpose care sheet of wonder and magic

>sand a shit
>use a thermostat
>read all the caresheets
>set up your tank before you get your herp
>regulate temps & humidity levels prior to herp arrival
>do not fuck with (handle) your herp for at least 7 days after bringing it home and ideally wait until herp has eaten at least one meal (for snakes), two meals for lizards, frogs, etc.
>PVC tanks are way better for most applications and worth the extra money
>it is best to avoid chain pet stores when looking to purchase live animals as mass breeder suppliers are not especially careful about health and sound genetics... it often saves you money long term to spend a little extra up front to get a healthy animal

>Jump Start (formerly Hydrofarm) thermostat is a good basic and inexpensive thermostat for regulating ceramic heat emitters and under tank heaters (Amazon sells it)
>if you want something more advanced for temperature control, look at Herpstat products

Poison dart frogs, despite having 'poison' right in the name, are not actually poisonous in captive care. Their poison is derived from their unique diet in the wild and is not active when fed the diet of fruit flies and so on that make up their standard captive diet.

I moved at the beginning of May to a new apartment with new roommates. My cat used to sleep on my chest, sit on my lap, enjoy being petted, etc. He doesn't want any of that anymore. He's never on my lap, he bites me when I pet him for more than a second, and he hasn't slept on my chest in months. Meanwhile he does all these things with my new roommate. I thought after he adjusted to the change he would come back to me, but this seems to be permanent.

I feel so rejected. Part of the reason I adopted him was for his companionship and it seems to be permanently gone.

I can't even pet him without being bitten, let alone cuddle. Sometimes I look at pictures of us cuddling and cry about how it used to be.

Thanks for reading.

Your cat doesnt see you as the alpha anymore beat it's ass
>>
Google "Help with an angry cat after a move".
>>
>>2459377
Tell your room mate to start spraying his face with water any time the cat comes near him, and everytime the cat comes near you give him treats.

You can win him back.

Also it has nothing to do with alpha/beta because cats don't have that social structure

EVERYONE here is retarded.

>why is she literally slapping the head of the dog
>why is the owner yanking on it's ears?
>"I adore dogs"
>has no idea about dog body language
It was so obvious at this point
>she's putting both hands over the muzzle of a dog she doesn't even know (WTF??)
>dog pulls head away (obviously doesn't like that she)
>SHE LEANS IN TO KISS HIM
>HE'S LITERALLY BEEN SHOWING HER HIS TEETH THIS WHOLE TIME
>WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE DOING LOL
EVEN WORSER
>WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY LETTING HER DO THAT?
THE FUCKER OWNS A DOGO ARGENTINO AND HAS NO IDEA ABOUT HIS DOG L0L WHAT THE FUCK??
THEN HE LET'S THE COP PUT HIS HAND OVER THE MUZZLE TO HOLD HIM IN PLACE ROFLLLLLL it's so obvious it's not even an aggressive dog since he lets the cop do that, he put up with a LOT of shit from the woman before he snapped at her. He 100% didn't attack her either, it was literally a mild snap (that happened to rip her lip up.. but still) after she spent a good 40 seconds talking anxiously and slapping him on the face and then leaned in to his face (wtf????) all while he was OBVIOUSLY telling her to STOP l0l.

The owner sucks. He can't read his dog.
The woman who "adores" dogs hopefully doesn't own one, because SHE'S EVEN WORSE.
LOL
All retarded. The dog isn't aggressive, but he has his limits of patience kek, and it so happens everyone is too retarded to see it. Just about *any* dog has it's limits of patience and if you dog-autistically torment it for 45 seconds and then lean in to it's face, staring it directly in the eye (when you don't fucking know them) then it'll fuck you up. Dogs have to be *really* fucking comfortable with you to look you in the eye like that. God damn she's retarded JESUS VCHRIST

>>2454152
Alright...except for some nose licking on the dogs part, which isn't a well known signal mind you, the dog wasn't showing that much warning signs. Usually there is at least some growling and/or pulling the lips back in a 'snarl' type of face. This dog was just seemingly relaxed and liking the attention, and it's not that uncommon to be petting a dog like that.

If anything, that makes me seriously worried about the precincts ability to judge the demeanor of their dogs.

I kick the dog out when I'm fucking the missus, but only because the little rat tries to lick our genitals during the act. Which I guess might be ok if her nose wasn't so damn cold.

>the great white lives on while the megalodon is extinct
Seems like they do better.
>>
They compete quite well, as megalodon dropped out of the competition.
>>
There's no competition. Really just came down to food source, which came down to methane levels or oxygen levels or whatever, right?

Imagine how different human history would be if megalodons never died out.

Post your most unique and odd animals here.

I'll start with the Velella velella, or little sail, because it is the only species in its genus.
