I have a cat. I feed him high quality wet cat food. Occasionally if I'm planning on having flounder for dinner I'll cook some extra in a water bath for him and serve it with a little of the water for his dinner. It's a rare treat, not a staple part of his diet. I do it something like twice a month or less and I made an effort to check that flounder was safe for cats before I started.
Anyway, I'd like some ideas on other "people food" I could rotate in safely. I've tried chicken, both baked and cooked in a water bath, and he'll eat...

I like it.
My cats love it when my family cooks turkey, like on Thanksgiving. They get bits like the liver and go fucking nutters over them.
I've also known cats that were pretty into baby food.
Hi guys I found this fucker in my building (I live in Paris) and I need to know what kind of species it is. It's about 5-6 cm in lenght.
Thanks!! :)
Le brown recluse?
The body looks thicker than a brown recluse, which according to wiki is only 8-9mm long. Plus the legs are shorter. Overall this one looks bigger and more stout.
Hey guys so this morning a huge bird picked up this rabbit from my neighbors lawn and dropped him from a reasonably high distance. He doesn't seem to be bleeding but it seems like he can't move his back legs, so we think that their broken or he's paralyzed. He's completely conscious and alert but didn't seem interested in any food we tried to give him. Is there anything I can do to help it or is it useless?
You can make some rabbit stew. It should be pretty good especially since you have fresh meat.

Rabbits are adorable, delicious, and super easy to clean. :)
I just noticed this on one of my cat's letgs.
Should I be worried?
It's possible that he got this injury like a week or two ago when he got into a fight with another cat, but I just failed to notice.
I think it's possible that this small part is completely ripped out skin
>>2156582
Do you know the other cat he got in a fight with? I'd be worried about FeLV and fiv. If he is an outdoor cat, he'll have to stay inside till it heals. If it's infected or deep you should go to a vet
>>2156593
I have no information on the other cat.
Since they were really angry at each other I was just near him to keep an eye of them. Suddenly my cat attack the other cat and they were fighting for only like 5 seconds or so until I "scared off" the other cat.
He is mostly an indoor cat (and a balcony/rooftop cat), he only goes out for a few hours every day and he spends most of his time quite near the house.
It looks like that part of his skin is possibly completely missing, but I don't know...

>quoted $12k for SRS radiation cancer treatment
>probably not going to really work even if i do it
>have to watch her slowly decay without it
why did i have to love a life so fragile?
>>2156525
it wouldn't work for very long. You can donate $1k in her name to your local cat fostering organization. They will probably do something really nice like name a kitty after your cat.
Sorry about that. Do you ever wonder if trees look at us the same way? Life is so ephemeral.
>>2156525
Suffering is part of life, it's pathetic to cry over a cat. You should put it down.
I think you can help some people if you have disposable 12k.
>>2156525
>Watch her slowly decay
You should put her down before suffering dominates her quality of life. It's the last kind thing you can do for your animal.
Not saying do it right now, but when it's time.
Its under a year and determining gender might have to wait until the development(or lackthereof) of femoral pores along its back legs
Also what in the world are you keeping it in and what is with the sudden outbreak of people with iguanas on here its like its the 90's again while just earlier this year there was only about 3-4 of us
Easy mode dogs

>ywn be any of those dogs
Are working dogs hardcore mode?
Poodles are pretty easy. Easy to train. Very minimal shedding also. Don't be put off by the retarded "show" hairstyle. They look fine with their fur trimmed normally.
Hello fags.
I found my cat after 3 days in the garden .
He is laying in tall grass , barely breathing , hearbeat very weak. Should i put him out of his misery ? If i should what is the fastest way to do it? (Vet is out of question , 4 hours away, i don't think his gona make it)
>>2156313
Is he old? Is he visibly injured? Does he have any discharge? We need info before we tell you to kill your cat.
If it can't move and has labored breathing then out it out of its misery.
Also keep your cat indoors because it probably wouldn't have happened in the first place if you bothered to give the slightest shit about the pet you are fully responsible for. Your cat is suffering and in pain for a reason that is most likely completely avoidable. So congrats. You willingly subjected your cat to pain and suffering on top of willingly destroying the environment('but he never leaves the yard!!). The least you can do is end him and never get another one.

NVM cat is no longer with us.
How do I get rid of my cat's fleas/ticks?
Very carefully.
Have you tried boiling it or putting it in the dryer?
>>2156361
Boiling it with what?
Me and my friends hanging out with some elephants in Thailand
>>2156252

>>2156252
I hope you realize the elephants shat on that water
>>2156252
Enjoy you' are parasites
What kind of spider is this? I found it on my driver's side mirror.
They're a nice kid.
>>2156221
I seriously have no clue, but it looks really cool.
Where do you live?
>>2156376
I live in Texas
Looks like some kind of orb weaver.
Can anyone ID this spider for me?
Brown recluse. Take it to a vet you asshole
>>2156213
Wolf spider.
If this board had an archive for every succesful bug identification and their location, it would be an actual contribution to entomology.
The heart-mark indicates some Alopecosa.

So my mom found this little guy around 7AM and now it's 7:52PM and he's still there, has been dry at least since she first saw him. Is he fucked? I just poured some water on him but he doesn't really react from me touching him so my hopes aren't really up. Can he recover? There's a pond like 4 feet away from where he is, should I put him in or will he drown if he's immobile?
>>2156183
It is a toad. They like to live in crevices like that. He is happy as long as his little hidey hole is shady. It'll most likely come out later tonight to feast on bugs.
Leave it alone. It's just a fucking frog.
Hey /an/, I need some help.
I rescued a kitten yesterday, she's ~2 months old and was abandoned either by someone or by her own mother. She has some respiratory problems but I already started medicating her ( 0,5 ml of antibiotic from 12 to 12 hours). I already took her to the vet, and everything seems to be fine, she has no external parasites, and I've already started deworming her and my other cats.
She was afraid to leave her box yesterday, but today she started to get very comfortable around me, she's likes it when I grab her and pet her a lot. Now the problem is that when she isn't sleeping, eating or being petted she just wanders around my room meowing very loud until I pick her up and wrap her up in a shirt/blanket. Should I be giving her so much attention? Or will she be really spoiled when she grows up?
Also, general tips for taking care of her are appreciated.
How many cats do you own?
Are you a crazy cat lady?
>>2156189
3
and no, I'm not a lady.
2 live with my parents, where I'm at now, 1 lives with my girlfriend's parents and this one is going to live with me and my girlfriend.
>>2156169
Depends on what kind of personality you desire. If you want a close relationship and a lap cat, then give it lots of love and attention. If you want a more independent cat, then ignore it when it's being needy.
My vote is for lots of love.
Hey /an/ really want to have a snek what species is nice to beguin with
I have looking for and the Elaphe guttata seams the best
>>2156127
Yep, corn snakes are a great choice for first time snake. Docile, active, good feeding response. Other good options are rosy boas (small size) and the antaresia pythons. Most common antaresia are Children's python (small) and spotted python (medium size). Rosys and the antaresia pythons can be nippy as babies but tame down very easily.
>>2156245
No OP, but what about Mexican Black Kingsnakes or Kingsnakes in general?
>>2156247
Yes. Easy care for those as well. Kings can be spirited though. Expect to be bit (it doesn't hurt) and musked (it smells) for the first little while until you have acclimated snek to your presence.
