My heart is full of love for nature /an/. So much so, I cannot help but feel it is overflowing, and I should do something that signifies my love.

To put it bluntly, I kinda want to fuck this planet. How would I make this a reality? I was thinking of finding a gentle river with a sandy beach, that can be dugged into, making a hole for my sex, and humping it until I release my fertile seed into the planet's outer crust.

I'm pretty sure I have some kind of a paraphilia but I don't care! Earth is simply...beautiful. I will have her, one way or another.

Tiger beetle.

Tiger beetles are a large group of beetles known for their aggressive predatory habits and running speed. The fastest species of tiger beetle can run at a speed of 9 km/h (5.6 mph), or about 125 body lengths per second.[1] As of 2005, about 2,600 species and subspecies were known, with the richest diversity in the Oriental (Indo-Malayan) region, followed by the Neotropics

I work with old people and there's one coffin dodger I'm worried about (family never visits, too frail to go outside) and I think a pet would be great for them.

The pet in question would need to be low maintenance but still capable of providing some comfort so dogs and fish are out of the equation.

Any recommendations? Maybe a bird or rabbit?

I wouldn't get anything that could vaguely get damaged mentally from having to be rehomed when the old person kicks the can. Def no a bird. Birds can live for decades and I have no idea how well they handle getting a new owner.

Fish?

Hey guys!
A few hours ago I caught our puppy playing with this bug. Of course we saved it and took it outside.
Does anyone know what kind of bug this is? We just recently moved to Portugal so I don't know what kinds of insects live here and if these bugs are common or not.
I already looked around by myself but I couldn't find anything.

Hey, /an/,
>mom insists on having a microshit dog years ago
>shiztzu female now about 13 years old
>terrified of rain/thunder/lightning
If she even so much as mistakes the sprinklers for rain she'll start shaking and will shit or piss the house rather than going outside. We've tried everything in the books to get her to stop associating rain with fear but with no luck. Ignoring her didn't work, giving treats when it rained didn't work, forcing her out into the rain while we stood next to her in it didn't work, penning obviously didn't do shit, and it all just seemed to reinforce her fear response. Thing is, she's never had a physically traumatic experience involving water so we're not sure how to go about reconditioning her.

First this has nothing to do with the dog being a microshit. I've known people with 80 pound dogs who get so terrified by thunder they shit themselves. I've also seen collies terrified of rain, and many others. This is a dog problem in general.

Have you tried a Thunder Shirt? It is a tight fittint dog shirt designed to reduce anxiety. It doesn't treat the underlying anxiety, but it can reduce their stress. I would give that a shot, and if it does not woek, then consult with a professional behaviorist.
>>
>>2176440
>thunder shirt
We considered it but never bothered because we figured it'd be useless. But I suppose since everything else doesn't seem to work it might be worth trying.
>>
>>2176475
I have seen thunder shirts work. But I have seen them not do much. I guess it depends ultimately on the dog. Some absolutely do not like it. I guess if it doesn't work, you could always take it back.

Jesus Christ, that is one good looking dog.

10/10 would pet.

So I know how /an/ loves fix my animal threads, especially involving cats. I'm more hoping to get some info and kill some time as I stay up at 2ish in he morning with the inevitable outcome.

So story is, I got 3 kittens as fosters. They managed to live in the shelter for 2 days with bare minimum care, but one was really struggling. I take them home, the two are BAR, eating on their own. I try to syringe feed the straggler. I go to bed, they are all walking on their own ( although straggler is wobbly) and are all cuddled together.

I wake up to a kitten howl, expecting it to be straggler. Nope, it's one of the kittens that was normal when I went to sleep. He can't stand, he can't even keep his head up. I can syringe feed some food, but he doesn't always swallow. His siblings were sleeping on him, I don't know if that would have caused it. His breathing is too hard for me to feel for a heart beat, and one of his legs I can not bend, it's stuck in an outright position as if he had already undergone rigamortis.

I was planning on just taking the straggler back to the shelter to see the vet tomorrow for fluids, but if this guy makes the night, I mine as well bring the whole gang. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions to help him, or something that I might not thought of doing. I really just wish I knew what was going on.

Pic related, how I found him. 3 hours earlier he was a fluffy, playful kitten and now he looks like he's dying.

yeesh, how old is he? do you have houseplants or medications that could have fallen on the floor?

keep him warm, of course. do you have cornsyrup (karo, pancake syrup)? that can help stimulate his appetite and get him some energy back.
>>
>>2176350
I keep him and his siblings in a crate, so he didn't get into anything on my watch. I'm honestly not sure how old, probably around 4 weeks, they are just starting to eat wet food. I have pancake syrup, but I'm not sure if he will have energy to eat it. There's still kitten food mush in his mouth from earlier
>>
>>2176358
try to give him some syrup via the syringe. poor little dude, hope he makes it.

I gave him a quarter of paracetamol my dog, the pill has 500 mg.
i'm worried because internet says the paracetamol is dangerous for my dog. It only has weight 3 kilos

>>2176310

Even a full 500mg tablet isn't gonna kill him, but he'll have a bad stomach for awhile, and you might have hurt his liver.

Why did you think it was a good idea to feed your pet human painkillers?

Dogs, unlike cats, can actually process paracetamol, but that doesn't make what you did any less stupid. If you gave a cat 250mg, it'd die. If you're worried, go to the vet.

He'll give your dog charcoal, and reprimand you like fuck for feeding your dog human medicine.
>>
>>2176762
To be fair, dogs often take people medicine but in the right doses. Doesn't make the OP any less of a raging retard.

I would call your vet. I don't know if inducing vomiting is still an option. 500mg sounds like a shit load for such a small dog. Be prepared to need to take him to an emergency clinic though. Wouldn't be surprised at all if that is what the vet told you to do.

Hey /an/, I found a little brown field mouse about a week or so ago, with ticks covering it and very apparently killing it. I pulled the ticks and killed them all, but now his teeth are growing into his gums, I managed to trim them back a little, but not much for fear of hurting him, WTF do I do to make sure this fucker live? I will not lose this battle

For fucks sake anon, I spend half an hour each day cleaning traps to kill as many of these little fucks as possible and you are going to these lengths to save them? Do you really have nothing better to do with your time than to stress over something that quite literally plagues farms across the globe? Get your fucking life together.

Lets share stories and links to the many retarded Youtube Reptile enthusiasts and their poor husbandry. This guy know as "Jade Jones" keeps his monitors in an 8x4x6 cut in half which contains one black throat of 3 years and an argus of 8 months. His subtrate is that hamster shit, wood shavings or whatever and feeds them mostly bugs and ground turkey. I tried suggesting some changes but he chased me off. Here is the link https://youtu.be/nvdjUivybnE Picture is of my female Argus (maybe male, dunno yet).
