A constitute sitter's dilema
Honey TABBY,
A feline friend of mine recently left on a calendar month-long vacation and put me in charge of her favorite catnip plant. The other day, in a moment of weakness, I ate it…
The entire found, leaving aught but stems.
And my friend had left detailed instructions on the plant'south proper intendance. Nowhere on her list did it say, "Swallow found."
What should I do?? Should I come make clean and admit my crime, even though it's too belatedly to save the plant, or secretly have my assistant bring habitation a replacement from the gardening store?
— Not So Green Thumb
Dearest NOT And so Dark-green THUMB:
Believe it or not, yours is a very common problem, and I've been on both sides of the situation.
On a holiday concluding year I left my cherished catnip institute, which I use strictly for medicinal purposes, under the intendance of the Russian Blue next door.
Upon my return, all I plant was an empty pot lying on its side.
Robbers? I thought, simply and so the Russian Blue confessed. He admitted to eating it, which angered me at get-go, simply then he offered to purchase me a new 1.
I accepted his offer and appreciated his honestly. After all, nosotros all make mistakes. I've certainly made a few of mine…
So, yes, I think you should come clean. Apologize, and offer to buy her a new plant. Peradventure also include a few cans of gravy to make peace.
Truthfully, even if you tried to supercede the establish without your friend knowing, chances are she'd figure it out. Information technology's not easy to discover thriving, mature catnip plants at local gardening stores (trust me, I've looked).
New roommate rocks one cat'due south world
Honey TABBY,
My landlord/banana (don't ask) recently invited a new kitty roommate into our home, and let me be frank — I hate him.
He hogs the bed, the bath, steals my toys and even sleeps in MY stinky sock drawer. Oh, and he likes to nap in the same sunny patches that I like to nap in on the floor.
On top of all that…he'due south ever trying to be cute, then I feel like I have to be in "performance way" all day long, constantly flashing my breadbasket and looking ambrosial.
It's exhausting!
What should I practise? I'm tempted to just run away, but I still take a pretty sweet thing going here. There's a steady supply of gravy, daily walks, and my pet assistant is likewise a licensed massage therapist.
— Roommate Troubles in Rohnert Park
Honey ROOMMATE TROUBLES:
You know the old saying, "Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer"? Truer words were never spoken. I believe every cat should take that phrase crossed-stitched on a pillow.
In your case, I think y'all should make the adjacent movement. Practise something overnice for the intruder, like offer to groom him or spoon the adjacent time you're both napping.
Build up some trust, because not only will it bring y'all peace of mind, it's as well a good way to carefully monitor the new cat'south activities.
And who knows? Maybe i mean solar day the 2 of you will become real friends.
Cat fashion statement or feline faux pas?
DEAR TABBY,
After a wild night with friends and 1 besides many catnip cocktails, I pulled a Britney and shaved my fur!
Well, not all of it. I got one of those king of beasts cuts, and now I deeply regret information technology…
I know I'1000 just going to have to expect for my fur to abound out, but do you take any fashion suggestions to help ease the transition?
— I'm Not Lyin'
DEAR I'M NOT LYIN',
Try to look on the bright side. Your impromptu fur care decision gives yous an excuse to go all out with edgy manner!
Ane word: accessories. Kitties today accept a ton of stylish choices.
Likewise, with the holidays hither, this is a smashing time to stock up on Christmas sweaters — festive greens and reds expect dandy with nigh fur patterns.
Just try to avert sweaters with round, red pom-poms, a la Rudolf the Blood-red-Nosed Reindeer… Y'all don't want to look whatever more than undignified, unless yous're trying to play the part of an ironic hipster kitty.
Lately when I've been sweater shopping, I look for snowflake patterns and sequins.
Of class, if sweaters aren't your thing, y'all could always try ribbons. They're super affordable (very frequently gratis this time of twelvemonth) and come in an array of colors and patterns.
Requite it a endeavour one of these days. I'm telling you, ribbons are great when you want to look polished but don't have a lot of costless time between playing and napping.
As for your fur, all you can do is be patient (and endeavour not to make the same mistake twice).
A pet assistant seeking guidance on souvenir giving
Beloved TABBY,
I'm a brand new pet assistant (iii months in!), and I desire to make a good offset holiday impression with my feline employer.
I'd like to get her a gift, but I'm not certain what's appropriate. I don't desire to cross any pet/pet assistant boundaries by getting something too personal, only then over again, I desire to look like I'm trying.
What do you suggest?
— Clueless at Gift Giving
DEAR CLUELESS,
How about a carefully curated souvenir basket filled with your feline's favorite treats and treasures? Maybe a few snacks, perchance a few toys (does she like feathers? lasers?). I know that in my case, gifts like that are always appreciated.
Another matter, personally, I usually prefer gifts with a personal bear upon to high-ticket pieces, like Prada collars (but shhhh, delight don't tell my family, because I really promise to become some Chanel this Christmas).
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addicts,
Karen and Tabs
