pokie posted:Oh no :[. yeah, yesterday, he was doing ok, hopping about a little but today he was basicaly just laying their half asleep clicking in pain, he eventually just went to sleep and didn't wake up he was a good frog, pretty friendly and liked climbing over my keyboard. i think my gf is probably going to end up getting me another one for our anniversary, but i will still miss the little guy.seriously, frogs are underrated pets. whites tree frogs are great and will just sit on you for hours. and rain frogs are cute and funny.

A herpeton. I hope. Which covers both reptiles and amphibians, even though they're not very closely related groups, because some of them look similar. There is some debate about whether snakes are included, or whether they're part of ophiology. Because they look different. I have no idea about caecilians. efb

Hambilderberglar posted:Unfortunate abbreviation but on the other hand aww frogs. Chameleons are very emotional animals and extremely sensitive to climate,color, food, surroundings, hornyness, and people.

I'd do a snake but I couldn't feed it pinkies because I am a big fat baby. Also just generally the ethics of keeping an animal, which I'm not really sure enough about to be okay with having one in a terrarium.

I don't think I have ever seen one with teeth. you can feed snakes dead stuff and buy dead mice that you microwave then feed them with tongs. i have never owned one, my gf has 2, the big mean one and teeny tinny brokesia is to small to hate. and yeah apperently the bite hurts. it bit her chest ones through the poo poo because she was wearing pink and it hates pink(and beards so it hates me and her step dad)

Its generally pretty chill and totally non-aggressive. 10/10 would recommend to anybody willing to pay for proper terrarium equipment.

Dapper_Swindler posted:you can feed snakes dead stuff and buy dead mice that you microwave then feed them with tongs. At some point I went through the trouble of trying to research snakes small enough so they could feed on crickets or other large bugs but they're all described as advanced care or otherwise fussy and I'd be mortified if I killed something I was supposed to take care of. On the topic of snakechat and to add something slightly D&D, the Indian grey mongoose is kept in nurseries in India because they keep your baby's room snake free. And often the rest of the house too. I don't recall any cool passages from the Bhagavad Gita about punishments for killing one however.

A cat however does not try to do things beyond its intelligence, whereas a dog does and fails. The dog is the 2003 laptop that only runs windows ME and has 3 different antivirus packages installed on it, of the animal world. A cat is an integrated chipset.

I used to have Russian gerbils as a teenager and so have a predilection toward small rodents. oh its fine and i get it. i used to feel bad for feeding crickets to the frogs(not as much any more) and i still dont buy caterpillars as food because i like them. i also had gerbils, gunia pig, rabbits. so yeah i dont blame you. i dont honestly have snake yet. i only had the 2 frogs. want to get more though.

Animals are individuals and pick up on your social cues to the best of their abilities, which varies from one individual to the next. I'm sorry you don't like cats equally as much as dogs, because the cats and dogs around you know it too. EDIT: I'm eating lunch and my cat is trying to convince me to give him some ramen noodles, the way a dog would. He also plays fetch. My cat is... a good boy. CAPT.

Saw a cat being looked after by some people after it hit on the main road by a car. I asked if I could help but they said they rang a vet. I then went to the shop.
