don't remove all the poop, and don't clean off all the pee

rodents mark their territory with their smell, i've seen my rats sleep like cozy babies on a pissy blanket so many times. If you remove all their smell, that just makes them work harder to poo and pee on everything to get the smell of home back

Lol, the only time my cat hisses at me is when I clean his sacred cage.

You keep your cat in a cage??

[-] babybus@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago

It's a plastic carrier for transportation, not a literal metallic cage. I'm unsure how it's called in English. I put it high on a shelf, he likes it, it's his safe place. Of course, it always open, I detached the door, put a blanket inside. Sorry for the confusion.

I would call that a kennel

That 100% makes sense. I also use their plastic carrier as a safe space with the door removed. Sorry for seeming so outraged from the start!

My birds a bit like this. Gets pissed as all hell for the cleaning process but once its all over he seems to look around and like it.

My parents kept getting me hamsters when I was a kid, it's crazy how high maintenance they are if you actually want to keep them in good conditions :(
(not like they cared that I kept them well or were willing to provide me with the resources to do so tho)

Yeah, you need to put effort to keep lil guy happy. But it's worth it - they are so adorable!!

[-] python@programming.dev 10 points 1 week ago

They definitely are!! And just watching them waddle around and do their little hamster duties is the cutest 🥹
