The floor is set! The slug tape is applied! We are good to go!
@babe Slug tape?
Also, how do you discourage rats without harming wildlife?

@EveOfTheFuture Tunnel traps and bait stations placed strategically.
The traps are too small for hedgehogs to fit in and placed too high up for any potential hoglets to reach, but rats would have no problem.If rats have a choice between wet meat cat food and peanut butter, they're choosing peanut butter every time.

@EveOfTheFuture And slug tape is copper tape. It's not entirely effective, some will still cross it, but it'll keep the numbers down. There's a ring of it around each entrance and on top of each wall, acting as a barrier. They hate copper

I will caution that you shouldn't expect to see any hedgehog videos any time soon. Even if the rat problem can be controlled quickly, it's still likely to involve a lot of waiting for them to find the place
@babe I would suggest signage, but, well, I don't think hedgepigs can read.

@babe We get a lovely thing to start looking forward to from now on. I don't mind waiting for hogs. This looks amazing!

@babe I am confident we will not have to wait for the news when The Igel has landed

@babe I am inordinately delighted that such a hedgehog feeding station exists.

In honour of @PhineasX's Hogratio Quillson, another of their ancestors now adorns the wall of the second feeding station

In the event anyone is thoroughly invested in all of this and has a spare fiver they'd like to put towards the renovations, I have a tip jar on my website

@babe even given the preview card, I was 100% ready for that site to be a rickroll

@babe Brilliant!

Normally whenever I do anything with the hedgehog houses I get a 'THAT WON'T STOP A CAT!' guy turn up to be wrong at me
This time I actually designed the entrances myself, based around my understanding of cat anatomy which I only learned to stop them getting in the damn hedgehog houses. I am perfectly placed to 'well, actually...' and not a single such guy has emerged.
I am both thrilled we have moved past it but gutted for my unaired prepared argument

@babe@glitterkitten.co.uk lowering my voice, putting on a fake mustache, creasing my brows, taking an arrogant tone well ACTUALLY...
(let it rip! I wanna hear the argument!) -

@babe How does that stop a cat?

To just go ahead and explain it anyway:
Cats have certain options when it comes to getting through small spaces.
For the most part they can duck through a small entrance, but need space the other side of the entrance to pull themselves through. A very low tunnel is impossible for many cats for this reason, they can't get purchase to pull their body as there's no height available for it. -

The original baffles were two 90 degree turns, but where they went wrong is they were too wide (around 15cm) and with a high ceiling behind the entrance (about 20cm), giving cats a chance to pull their body into the space of the baffle, like an entrance hall

@evan he’s attributed “I would rather have a general who was lucky than one who was good”

Mom asked me where I wanted to go for my birthday. Which of these sounds better to you? #Food #Poll #Polls

@thaggie I don't understand.

@evan I would rather be more good than lucky, but being more lucky than good seems to have worked really well for people over the years

does anybody know a slur for non-furries
-
I'm trying to sound smart in a convo. we are talking about terms for in/out groups and how groups naturally have generally-neutral terms for the outgroup (carnist, cis, etc) and fragile people think they are slurs when actual (weak) slurs exist (bloodmouth, grue, etc).
anyways I need your help (contd):
