Cool froggo, anon. I hope you gave him water.

We need your location to be able to identify him correctly though.

Where do you live?

>Should I brush it's teeth
this is a joke right

>>2171431
No, I don't know much about cats and I want to learn, but someone told me that brushing their teeth is good for them. (without toothpaste)

Meh. Only because I am taking a shit at work.

>Clean the box daily.
>Brush its teeth if it will let you. You have to do it everyday or its pointless though.
>Brushing the coat daily is only necessary if it's a long hair. Short hairs can be brushed a couple times a week.
>Feed it a high quality wet food. I recommend Weruva. It will be expensive, but you'll save on the long run in vet bills
>Avoid food with fish. Fish is tough on the kidneys and urinary tract.
>Play with it everyday. Kittens needs lots of stimulation or they'll become destructive.
>Keep it on flea prevention even if it is indoor. Crazy things can and do happen.
>Get some cat treea. Kittens and cats need high places to jump and explore.

>my cats dying
Too bad, op. Take solace in the knowledge that the world will be a slightly better place after it takes its final breath.

>>2171230
She is definitely not dying, she still tries to play and shows no signs of actually kicking the bucket, she is just sick and clearly uncomfortable.

We are taking her to the vet for treatment, and about the only thing thst could possibly be fatal off the top of my head is cancer. And she is very young for that (14 months.) Also she has had all her shots and has been fixed, so the list of possible ailments is fairly low overall.

>>2171234
Do you keep lillies in your garden? Those are toxic to cats. Even if you don't, someone nearby just might.
Also, if you keep your cat outdoors or let it go outdoors then you have to consider the very real possibility that it was poisoned, intentionally or otherwise.

Alimony

My cat did the same to her belly, we tried to prevent that with lotions but nothing worked. We later found out that she did it out of stress because we had another cat that she didn't get along with. After that cat died, she stopped licking and never did that again, her fur growed back normally.
So unless you remove the cause of the stress, she'll keep licking and could also go completely bald or scratch her skin with her tongue.

>the cause of the stress,

Im amazed by this spider

>>2170780
Salticidae. not sure what species, really cool, some of the most advanced spiders, totally harmless to you, extremely dangerous for a fly.

It looks so cool especially with that thing on its mouth and those 2 big eyes

reattach them

>>2170483
I don't have the skills or the leg to that. He's walking pretty quick now btw

>>2170480
I assume the mole is cosplaying as a shrew?

pic related? you could filter the fucking water

never do a full water change.

you need to pick up a filter and a heater. that size tank seems like it's probably okay, maybe a bit small. google aquarium cycling.

>>2170275
Looks like it has an undergravel filter. They work ok. Function better in reverse with a powerhead is forcing water down the tube rather than air drawing water upwards.

what's the weather like in austrailia, op?

>>2170261
A little down under the usual, mate.

>>2170256
i think it would look nice and maintain humidity a bit more if you placed a live plant or two in there. nothing immodest, just a touch of sorrel, trillium, or montia cordifolia. also do you plan on adding a big critter for dramatic effect? A stag beetle or a mantis or orb weaver?

>>2170145
treehopper nymph

>>2170148
Anything I should be worried about? The bonsai is barely clinging to life as is.

Thanks by the way

>>2170150
Not that guy but while tree hoppers do drink plant fluids its not the problem. Its like finding a mosquito on a guy with a gunshot wound

Fungus, homie.

>>2169968
Thanks m8.

I'm worried that there might be some underlying problem though. There are no other fish in the tank and nothing he could have injured himself on. If it's a bacterial infection he picked up at the pet shop, should I treat it the same or?

>>2169971
Did he come in a little cup? Those things are death camps

>>2169704
That meme's been driven into the ground.

SOMEBODY

>>2170997
ONCE

Me. Because I don't support mutilation.

>inb4 "it's better for them because muh overbreeding, muh dogs dying in animal shelters"

I want to get her spayed, but im not allowed to.
