If youre over the age of 20 and lost all your teen years to mental illness and never got to be normal, or have healthy relationships, went down the wrong path or diddnt have the right nurturing support from BOTH your parents and now you have to sort of catch up on your life whether thats getting your license, getting your GED, starting college, fixing your mental health, or starting things you told yourself to start or try again and again no matter what it is, and trying to fight to live and accomplish shit you FEEL you should have accomplished as a teenager but diddnt have the capacity or insight to care about due to mental illness.

• I am so incredibly sorry, and im thankful youre here and alive and trying!!! also;
• You are N O T a failure you took your time because you couldnt put more on yourself than you could bear to carry and that is a mark of self care so dont ever feel bad about it
• I am so fucking proud of you, youre trying your hardest to get to the top even though it may be harder now, you could have given up but you havent and for that you are victorious and i am in awe of you.

I needed this, thank you

I got my GED when I was 30 and now at 32 I’m about to start my freshman year of college.

I’m pretty confident in myself but thank you. This sort of support and encouragement means the world to me in a world that would try to tell me I’m a failure for taking so long.

When I die, there are only three types of funerals I’ll accept:

1. Send my body down the Rhein in a wooden ship, together with my comic book collection, and set it on fire with burning arrows.

2. Burn my body on a pyre upon a hill, while the attendees get drunk and sing.

3. Leave my body on a stone altar upon a hill, so that the crows may eat it.

Those are actually great funeral ideas!

I would like to be tossed into the sea with weights so I never leave it.

But I swear, if whoever buries me gets me a catholic funeral I shall rise from the dead and eat their brains.

He who buries my body in the ground may lay awake fearful at night, for one day I will return to haunt him. And I will only allow Christian priests at my funeral if they serve as human sacrifices.

10 Steps To Care For Your Hamster (long post!)

how-to-care-for-hamsters:

1. Do not keep them in pairs. Hamsters are loners - keeping them together often results in stress, fighting, injuries and death. They are very happy alone. 

________________________________________________

2. Minimum cage size

• dwarf hamsters: 30 x 20 x 20 inches (80x50x50cm);
• bigger hamsters: 40 x 20 x 20 inches (100x50x50cm)!
  

NOT like this: 

• Living in cages like this for them is like a human living in an elevator - a lot too small and even dangerous! 
• For them it feels like this:

• Behavior like this is a signal for stress because the cage is too small or that they need more bedding:

Better:

________________________________________________

3. Your hamster (always!) needs a hamster wheel - and it must be a lot bigger than you might think! 

• Hamster must be able to run with a completely straight back
• on a closed surface
• with a closed back wall! 

NOT like this: 

Results of those wheels are: spine problems, backache, stress, injuries! 

• Minimum wheel size for dwarf hamsters: 9-10 inches. 
• Minimum wheel size for bigger hamsters: 12 inches! 

Better: 

________________________________________________

4. Do not buy them plastic tubes (at all): 

Those tubes are not suitable at all: Hamsters get stuck or suffocate in them easily. 

________________________________________________

5. Your hamster needs enough bedding to dig and build tunnels.

NOT like this:  

Better: 

Your hamster will be extremely happy and dig around and build tunnels all day (night). 

A study also found out that (golden) hamsters need up to 12-36 inches of bedding, so just do your best do give them the highest amount of bedding possible. :)

________________________________________________

6. The less plastic the better! 

NOT like this:

• Plastic gets swallowed, splinters, can injure or even kill your hamster. 

Better: 

________________________________________________

7. Hamsters ALWAYS need a sand bath.

Hamsters love rolling around in the sand, for them it’s like showering. How would you feel without a shower? 

• You can use those little baths as toilets, but you still need a bigger sand bath!

Better:

________________________________________________

8. Hamsters need a house with at least 2 or more chambers to store food, sleep etc. Also make sure that your hamster does have enough hiding places like coconuts, small houses, toilet rolls! 

________________________________________________

9. Do use unperfumed toilet paper for nesting material, don’t use “hamster wool” -> it can tangle around a limb and seriously hurt and even kill your hamster! 

NOT like this: 

________________________________________________

10. Never ever ever put your hamster or any animal in a hamster ball. 

They can’t get out, might suffocate or panic, might run against furniture and seriously injure themselves. The ventilation is terrible, your hamster can’t see/smell/hear enough or use any of their senses properly.

In some countries they even discuss about banning those by law! 

Even if you think that “your hamster has fun in it” - please don’t use them! 

_______________________________________________________

Please reblog and spread this information.

Pet stores often are very misinformed and sell terrible cages and have little to no idea how to keep a happy hamster - please be careful when trusting them. In the end they often just want to make money - and the hamsters suffer. 

Please adopt, not buy hamsters - there are too many hamsters in this world that we need any more breeding.

(Sorry for the spelling errors - I made this post in a rush.)

i literally had no idea, so i feel like this really needs to be stressed

Much like with bettas, there’s a lot of companies out there making a huge profit on habitats that are completely unsuitable for your pets, and counting on consumer ignorance.
