cats: st0ner edition

[kellan_the_tabby]

[ A really terrible photo of Loiosh, an orange tabby, perched on the edges of a wooden box on a shelf and nomming on a baby spider plant hanging from the big spider plant above. ]

okay STRICTLY SPEAKING spider plants are a mild hallucinogen for cats, so it’s not QUITE the same as being st0ned, but close enough

Loiosh really loves being st0ned. It’s totally worth the really precarious perch.

Yeah, they’re terrible pictures, but the boy is funny enough it’s worth it.

He’s also started asking Jasper to pick him up & hold him so he can nom, which is HILARIOUS, but no pics of that yet.

Gotta pick the right leaf.

[ He’s got his nose pressed RIGHT up against one of the baby spider plants, and his ears are tucked back. He looks contemplative. ]

Om nom.

[ Loiosh is caught mid-cronch, from the side; there’s half a spider plant leaf sticking out of the side of his mouth. ]

& check out that tongue action!

[ He’s sticking out his tongue to lick another spider plant leaf into his mouth. ]

I’m just glad he’s enjoying himself.

spider plants are a mild hallucinogen for cats

Well that explains why Little Bitch Tabitha ate my spider plant to death. There's a reason why all the houseplants are on an inaccessible shelf or hanging from the ceiling in my house.

You are not the only person who's had that revelation today! I only found out like a year ago, & yeah, it explains a LOT.

This is why I have no spider plants left. They were eaten.

[kellan_the_tabby]

I keep the small ones hung up high, in the hopes they'll grow big before this one is totally et.

The last one WAS up high, but my mom's cat developed a specific "pick me up to eat that plant" meow and I am weak, soooooo. (Also, plants above eye level in our house tend to not get watered...)

YES Loiosh has suckered Jasper into holding him up to reach it, & now Sigdis does it too. It's a big plant but there's limits.
