Hello! I'm in my 30's, male, and my pronouns are he/him/himself. You can call me Bluebell, if you want. I work at a cat foster home/boarding facility. I'm partnered with a few rescues and primarily work with kitten social development and behavioral management with adult cats. You can see lots of pictures of cute cats in my 'work' tag.
I also reblog a lot of reptile stuff. Well, animal stuff in particular. But reptile stuff in specifics. I'm lucky enough to have 3 leopard geckos (Aurora (W/Y Bell, f), Amp (Hypo, m), and Bantam (W/Y Bell, m), a bearded dragon (Ngarehu), a gargoyle gecko (Theta), and a crested gecko (Twinkie). I also have three cats (Kaylee, Yardstick (yes, THAT Yardstick) and Saia), and a dog (Truffle). They have their own tags. I'm happy to answer questions about reptile care or cat behavioral inquiries! If i can't answer a question, I'll do my best to direct you to someone who can.
hey, just curious since I saw you reblog that post about sidnie being adopted with her adopted kittens: do we know why with kittens is there no problem with adopting littermates, but with dogs it’s not recommended because of potential littermate syndrome?
Most likely the answer is simply that cats aren't pack animals the same way dogs are. Cats are social, don't get me wrong. They just aren't pack animals.
I think having a baby niece is great cause my brother will send me just a constant stream of messages that sound indistinguishable from how someone at Jurassic park would text if they were being hunted by the raptor
There's a face we haven't seen in a while! Longtime followers may remember Otter the Scottish fold. He was back for an afternoon spa and nail trim. Due to his arthritis (which happens in every folded cat), he requires a bit of extra help in the hygiene department. He's a good sport about it.
The babies have left their nest box and can explore the rest of the room now. I'm a lil anxious about them getting cold so I put down rugs. I know my anxiety is irrational--- that's kind of the thing about having severe anxiety.
No one's using the box as a bathroom yet but they have fun playing with the pellets.
