My husband was super allergic to our first cat, it took about seven months until his body decided the cat wasn't an issue. The second one made him sneeze but not for long, and by the time we got the other two he was fine :) Hopefully it'll happen to you!

This is Juno (aka Junecat). She thinks she's majestic.


But in reality she's just a huge derp.

She's super placid, loves tummy rubs and never bites or scratches intentionally. She even stands up to the abuse of my nine month old daughter, she just lays there and takes it, and when she's had enough she walks away. Best kitty.

One thing I never got about people who hate squirrels hitting up their bird feeders is, if that keeps happening, why don't they just put out a squirrel feeder closer to the squirrel's habitat?

Although watching that squirrel spin around is a bit funny.

I specifically buy birdseed that has sunflower seeds in it so that there's enough spilled out for the squirrels. All are welcome!

I asked my grandmother this once; she said it's because the squirrels are greedy little bastards who'll eat out of the squirrel feeder, and still ransack the bird feeders.

Mind you she said this after having installed a squirrel-feeder anyway, and every time we visited, every afternoon without fail a squirrel was sound asleep half in and half out of the thing after having gorged himself to the point of food-coma.

There's a special spicy birdseed you can buy that has chilis in it to ostensibly deter squirrels. :3: Apparently squirrels love spicy seeds!

Birds naturally lack the receptors that make mammals react to spicy foods. They can eat things that are so spicy humans would find them inedible.

Isn't "spiciness" technically just physical pain on your skin?

Reach for the moon!
Yes, a chemical found in most spice sticks to your taste buds and tells your brain that what you're eating is really hot, depending on how much of the chemical there is. Your weird human brain interprets the chemical as painful, but acknowledges that what you're eating is food, and so it's like gently caress dude I dunno I guess this is a good thing and releases positive endorphins in response. So if you lack the receptors on your taste buds to tell your brain that stuff, spicy food won't taste hot to you. Birds and probably a lot of animal species' lack those because it's not like they encounter wild roaming gangs of hot sauce bottles or whathaveyou.

It's actually really important for the peppers. The seeds of peppers are not transmitted by mammals very well as opposed to birds, so peppers evolved to create piperine and capsaicin, chemicals that cause pain in mammals but not birds. In addition, capsaicin is harmful to parasitic fungi.

At the last place I worked my coworkers would put nuts on the windowsill for the squirrels. That summer we all learned that squirrels have a pretty good memory for food sources and have no qualms about tearing your desk apart looking for the nuts if you forget to put them out one day.

I read about a guy who had a pack of crows following his car around for a similar reason. They kept doing this after he sold the car, and the guy he sold it to had no idea what the gently caress.

Oh they are super good at remembering. There was a nice little woody courtyard in the middle of the dorm I lived in my sophomore year. Always full of squirrels, squirrels that had no issues with people. I gave half a pringle to a squirrel on a railing near my entrance one day and he spent the spring learning my schedule and then demanding a toll from me so I could get in my building.

The cat is a superposition of states. It is only when you rub the belly that you collapse the waveform and determine whether it is a trap or not.

Crows are pretty smart, they and the whole corvid family are avid tool users, including using cars to crack nuts (waiting for the light to turn red to pick them up).
