How can my cat be smart enough to open locked doors but not be smart enough to not get his head stuck over and over in a paper bag's handles?

Because opening a door doesn't have much downside risk: car falls back to floor with door unopened. But the bag handles? Once they are over the cat's head/neck, the solution is not obvious to your cat.

Would it be okay to post a gofundme link to save my girlfriend's cat?

not op, but are you autistic? op is not advertising anything, he/she is just asking for advice.
to answer op, yes, you could, but that would be the least efficient way to help your cat, ask a friend or a family member, or sell you vehicle

Hi, I didn't know whether this belongs here or in /out/, sorry for the inconvenience.
These two guys popped up in my garden three days ago and I wanted to know whether they're edible, and if so, any good.

Out of focus, sorry, but here's a closer look
btw, location is Buenos Aires, Argentina (South America). It's summer and there hasn't been any rain for at least a week and a half. Why did they appear just now?

looks like Macrolepiota sp.
some species are edible.

Oh, and I took a quick look at the "edible mushrooms" wiki page and they look similar, albeit smaller, to the ones on the right here.

any way to find out which species this is?

Let's honor our companions by reliving memorable moments that are fond to you, even if others won't think anything of it.
This dog was always an undisciplined disaster. My wife raised him as a best friend before we got together, so we always kept him leashed when walking outside.
One day I took him to a huge church parking lot with a pocket full of treats (to get him to come back to me) and just let him take off on his own. It was the first time he'd been that free, and probably the greatest walk he ever had. Just an hour of his 1 floppy ear blowing in the wind. He slept for about 8 hours after that.
Had to put him down last year. A tumor or such in his nose. Probably cancer (the vets all thought so) but even a biopsy couldn't find it. He was 9 years old, which was a bit on the early side for his mix.
I never realized just how horribly we spoil our pets when the end is near. Steak every night, sleeping in the master bed, etc.

Hey /an/ do you have some kind of website/book/whatfuckingever that you point newfags to, regarding taking care and training doges ?
I would like to get a corgi later and train it for working in Security but I have never properly trained my dogs and I should probably get my shit together with the next one.

If you're serious about learning how to be a proper animal trainer, read Don't Shoot the Dog by Karen Pryor. Despite the title, it's not specific to dogs but is more of a training textbook. Every professional trainer I know swears by it.
After you read this, THEN read some specific dog training and care books (maybe other anons can suggest some good ones because I can't think of any right now). But Don't Shoot the Dog is basically the Bible for learning the fundamental principles of training.

Hello /an/
This is my girlfriend's cat. Me being allergic I shouldn't be coexisting with it in the same flat, but I'm feeling fine. We did some research on hypoallergenic cats and we found that she looks just like a Russian Blue cat and it really made sense. We're looking for an expert opinion on the matter. Is she a pure breed or not? Thanks in advance.

A plant isn't enough to save them all, you should relocate them.

Small rodents are a possibility.
One more question even though my guppy fry have ick will the fish eating them catch it?

not if you cook the guppies first.
Fish that stop eating when they're full and that will eat like half my guppy fry. I need a fish or some fish that will slowly pick off my guppies. But that won't decimate the fry population. Sorry for starting a new thread. I guess.

I need some ideas on how to induce natural selection to my guppy tank. I have 35 guppy fry and I need to kill some off so only the strongest and most intelligent survive.
I would use a predator but it doesn't seem like a good idea for fear of killing all my fish.
Something like a goldfish maybe ? To just eat a couple of the fry but maybe not always eat them

No, bad idea. Goldfish are poop machines, and they grow huge. They really are more a pond fish than anything else.
I would instead go to the store and buy the betta with the largest/heaviest fins you can find. That way only the slowest/most stupid fry will get eaten.
I would also get some java moss, tie it to a rock or whatnot, and with every water change gently comb it out with a smooth wide toothed comb. That way the individual strands become long and bushy so there is a shit ton of hiding places within it for the fry.
I would also get a broad leafed fairly tallish plant for your betta to rest on when near the surface. Lugging around those massive fins takes a lot out of a fish.
