Kitteh broke into the terrarium and yanked the plants out of position so many times that I finally went to the pet store for kitteh repellent. That appears to have worked... #crimescene #geniushacks

What is the repellent?

emch
@heatherdirtyhands it's called Keep Off! Cat and Kitten Repellent. Made by Four Paws, a brand we always trusted at the pet store where I used to work ages ago. It's still working today!

Crude but effective: clingfilm over the top of the fishbowl to keep the humidity high.

Very cool!! I want to try these.
@cheriej I have succeeded at last with these by keeping it simple. I put them in the pots they came in into a big fishbowl with a layer of stones at the bottom. Soaked some sphagnum moss with distilled water and packed it around the pots. Stretched clingfilm across the top and spritzed that with kitteh repellent. This is the first time I have been able to keep them alive. RIP sundew plant from GrowIt that came in the mail with the green Venus Flytrap 😢
Great!! I’m keeping the instructions, I really want to try them. Do you feed them bugs? Or are they good without? @emch
The greenie was good for a year plus without bugs. I fed each one a mealworm a week or so ago @cheriej and they immediately started putting out new traps...
Mealworms are a great idea! I already have them for the Bluebirds.
