>>4879626When I moved out of my family's house, there was this semi feral house cat that would only allow me to pet her. When I came back after 3 years, not only did she let me pet her, she actually would seek me out after only being in the house for 10 minutes - this cat that some people haven't seen in years it was so skittish, came out for me in under half an hour. So they at least have a 3 year memory.>>4879618>What do I doIf the place you're moving to you'll be at for the foreseeable future, i don't know why you wouldn't bring them with you. A one-time shitty flight with some sleepy meds vs spending the rest of their life with you. 20F or 20C really isn't that bad if they're going to have indoor access, and isn't even an issue if they will be indoors only. If you want to bring them with you you'll need to figure that out quick though - a lot of countries have rules and regulations on traveling with animals. China for example requires all animals to get a rabies vaccine 6 months or something before travel EVEN IF the animal is UTD on rabies vax.If you're moving and will only be there a few years or don't have a clue what you're doing then yeah rehoming may be for the best.If you need to leave them, I highly recommend looking into supported self rehome programs in your area. There are websites for owners rehoming pets. You can check with local rescues and shelters for do not adopt lists. I think what is more important than a rehoming fee is just having a long conversation to make sure they are the right fit for the cat.Whatever you decide, you need to start making moves now.
>>4879618Egyptians have had cats for 8 millenia. Maybe Google a few pics of Egypt and ask yourself whether your cats can survive summer in the UK aka 20C.Spoiler: they'll laugh at you for having sweaty balls and rightfully so.
>>4879618OP please ask this question of ChatGPT so he will explain in a few more fucks than me, why this is stupid. Every single cat species will be fine at 20c and 20f.Especially if they can just stay at home. which all cats can easily adjust to.just take the damn cats.

had anyone else noticed the local stray cats seem to be missing more often? Im used to them going away for a while since theyre nomadic and all but I've been leaving cat food in my backyard for a couple nights now and it ends up being ant food. it used to take like 5 minutes for a cat to show up. I heard this is happening all over the country, whats going on?
>>4879874what do you mean? https://www.themainewire.com/2024/09/catnapped-up-to-20-cats-reported-missing-from-bangor-neighborhood-authorities-doubt-wildlife-to-blame/
>>4879869Yes. There were a few stray cats that people would leave food out for and they all went missing recently.

>>4877271Beautifult. /k/
has anyone seen the anon article from the woman who stopped giving a shit about her cat after giving birth? They're now covering her and their own asses, and brushing it under the rug, when she should be in jail by her own admission/ in her own words. She abuses, tortures and neglects her senior cat and has no desire to change her behavior. This isn't edgy commentary, it's animal abuse. They are profiting off of animal abuse.
>>4879617I'm no tourist, I think animals are valuable and fascinating. I'm especially interested in wild animals and usually post in threads related to them. That being said I would never put any animal above my family and children and the fact that so many people do shows just how much of a demonic and demented society we've turned into. The further we stray from God the more we worship false chimera idols just like they did in biblical times, only this time it comes in the form of modern pet worship culture

Why is my pixie frog acting afraid of me? He used to go crazy when It was feeding time but now when I open his enclosure to feed him he freaks out and runs into his hide. I used to just put the cricket in there and he'd devour it without question but now I have to poke his face with it for him to eat it. It is just him on his shedding period or something?
Do you guys think my salamander would rather live life free in the wild or being submerged in my tank with and doing nothing chilling with by himself or with shrimp all day only to get fed an earthworm once every week?
>>4880494freedom for life is also the freedom to die, im not really sure how to mentally stimulate a salamander, because im not going to be the mengele for salamanders, and aside from just looking for food or just chill im not really sure what else a salamander does in the wild, if you want to simulate a predator, you can just poke it a stick i guess. i suppose you could rearrange the tank when you clean it so its kind of a new locale
>>4880494Your salamander doesnt understand those concepts, but if it could, it would pick what is important to it - security and regularly accessible food.The idea of some freedom and nobility in the wild is an invention by humanity pulling a "grass is greener" on civilization. Nature fucking sucks. If you're lucky you die delirious and in pain from an infection. If you're unlucky you're torn apart by a predator while alive and screaming in agony.

are locust swarms 100% anarchic or do they have some sort of hierarchy similar to a school of sardines or a flock of migratory birds?

>>4880367Here's one:>https://youtu.be/jLyTEmzrFD0>Flying squids of the family Ommastrephidae have been observed to cover distances as long as 30m above the surface of the water, presumably to avoid predators or save energy as they migrate across vast expanses of ocean, uniquely utilizing jet-propelled aerial locomotion.It looks like which exact species of squid are able to do this isn't very well known.
>>4880395Nice, I finally got to see them.>its not clear which species can do this fug
>>4880367It's pretty rare since most squid don't tend to hang out at shallow depths during the day and you have to be pointing a high quality camera where it's happening before it's happening or you missed it. I've heard multiple species of squid can do it but just one or two seem to specialize in doing it.

>>4871571God's design is perfect. If you don't Understand something, doesn't mean it's flawed. Man has never designed a lifeform from scratch so who are we to criticize? Perhaps the death rates at birth are some kind of control mechanism implemented by God, we can only guess, but never criticize for that requires the ability to do better.

>>4871571>So after giving birth the hyena's pseudopenis stretches and splits into a mangled sleeveDoes this actually happen? I honestly kind of doubt it. There's absolutely no reason a female shouldn't be able to give birth to young naturally. Females are the primary raisers of children in almost every species. Spotted hyena mothers seem like they're doing a good job with whatever junk they've got.
>>4880435Yes it does. But spotted hyenas are quite robust, so if the blood loss doesn't kill her outright she's usually fine. And the survival rate for all births after the first is much higher.https://youtu.be/7rd7TvoPtWM
