Pets and Lolita

[Anonymous No.8404347]

How do you guys feel about pets and Lolita?
Do you have pets as a Lolita? How do you deal with fur and other issues that come with owning a pet?

I want to have a pet again some day but now that I'm buying dresses, I'm not sure because the thought makes me cringe of constantly having to lint roll everything I own.

[Anonymous No.8404354]

Get a fish

[Anonymous No.8404356]

Keep you loli clothes in a cedar box
Don't let your cat have an opportunity to lay on a dress, put bows, ties and any little bits into a bag and either box it or have it on the hanger with the dress.
Get suit bags to hang your clothes up in
Before selling an item, key the buyer know, then have it cleaned and ask a friend that doesn't have cats to check it over for any lingering odors.

I keep my clothes in a walk-in wardrobe that my dog can't get into. Everything is hung up high or on a shelf, except for the shoes.
I've also got an arsenal of lint rollers and sponges from IKEA that I'd made friends with a long, long time ago.

Sometimes, he's so adorable that I can't help but cuddle with him for a while after I'm home from a meetup. But after that it's heavy decontamination before it's put back. I don't let pet hair in any shape or form get into my wardrobe.

[Anonymous No.8404424]

I'm really not that uptight about it...and my cat spends all her time in my room so I can't prevent her fur from getting on my clothes.

I just make sure not to carry her around a lot while I'm wearing lolita, and I'll only give her a stroke on the head before a meet, I won't pick her up at all.

I also make sure to give my clothes and good clean before selling them.

I don't have to worry too much about delicate fabrics because she spends most of her time sleeping and will only scratch/sharpen her claws outside.

[Anonymous No.8404429]

Or you know... have a room where you keep your lolita and keep the door closed so the animal can't get in.

I don't care what lolitas do in regards with pets, but please always note if you have a cat or dog or both if you're selling anything. I'm extremely allergic to both and I've had a few bad experiences with the secondhand market in the past because of sellers omitting pet ownership.


Also, having lolita items in a separate room does nothing. Pet dander/allergens can be transferred through the air.

I have three cats. Even walking around the apartment means picking up fur. I always lint roll myself before I leave the and then again right before I get to the meet.

I keep my lolita stuff in a separate closet. Before we moved into a bigger apartment we lived in a glorified bachelor with no storage room. I kept my petticoats shoved onto a shelf and my cat would regularly crawl up there and sleep burrowed in all the fluff. I didn't have the heart to make her stop.

I'll pet my cats in lolita (carefully) but I won't pick them up. I also have to be super careful around the youngest and the oldest. The oldest has a string fetish and the youngest will just attack everything that moves, so I have to be careful doing up waist ties and corset lacing or kick them out of the room.

I have small dogs so anything higher than them is prettymuch ok, they only work on one level :) only one of my dogs is happy to go up the stairs and she's nowhere near my clothes. I feel sorry for smart cat owners with their claws & ability to get into wardrobes wreaking havoc. Our cat is a dope. Our rabbits are great. No interest in jumping up & snagging tights, peeing on me (only each other as to rabbits it is a declaration of love) or making a mess, they just groom & doze in the sun. Op I would look into maybe getting a bonded pair of rabbits. All of my pets are indoors of course, we have a big house but I vaccum twice a day to keep the floors looking good.

One thing that gets me is I am judgemental of non pet owners. I think people without pets have no soul.

But thing is... i never had experience with dogs, i have only cats outside, i just hope the dog would behave good and not play with my lolita items that are in a open wardrobe. Is there a way to protect open wardrobes from pets?

Get your dog actual toys and reward them for playing with/chewing on them, not your accessories. Dogs understand positive reinforcement better than negative. If you're especially concerned about them getting into your wardrobe, get a baby gate for the doorway to that room.

I always want to hold my cat for a picture but I'm paranoid he's going to hook his claws into me and that they'll still fuck shit up even if they're clipped. I normally just put lolita on and then leave the house and I also keep him away from my dresses so I try to have as minimal interaction with my cat as possible when in lolita.
For added fun: I also have chickens in my backyard and I have a rooster that often walks around outside of the coop. He's friendly, but sometimes when leaving my house he runs up to me to say hello and though he's never attacked me before I'm always worried one day he'll decide to turn against me in the distance it takes from me to get to my house to the car.

The thing is, hair is something that is all over your house even if the pet isnt in that room. It gets on you and you transfer it to other objects. You would have to get a separate house to really even try to make sure that the pet never got fur on your stuff. Even then you would still get transfer from touching your pet.

You just have to get used to the fact that the fur will be everywhere.

My apologies, I wasn't aware clipping was something actually approved by vets and professionals.
My mom and aunt both insist on clipping their cat's claws by themselves, except right down to the paw. Most of their cats have died from infections, but they just go and get new ones each time without listening to anyone. It breaks my heart every time to see them struggling to do basic shit like jump and climb. That's no life for a cat.

It should be exactly the same as trimming your own nails - You just snip the sharp points off and make not to catch the flesh. It's an incredibly common and safe thing, your mother and aunt were just doing it wrong (and disgusting people, honestly.)

...where do you live? when my cat was a kitten and went to the vet for the first time, one of the things he did during the exam was show me how to cut his nails with a nail clipper. I go to a different vet now and they also clip his nails for me during the exam as well. if anything I thought this was common practice for cats.

anyways, trimming a cat's nails isn't bad for them at all...just snip the sharp tip off. they're totally fine and their nails sharpen back up in no time. obviously just don't cut them all the way down or else you'll hurt them; my vets just cut the tips as well.

I have to lint roll anyway because my husband sheds worse than a Persian in July. Put a dress down anywhere clean to fold it up and package it, hairs. I may as well own like 20 cats at this rate. At least cat hairs are cuter.

>>8405416
If you look closely at a cat's nail, you'll notice there's a point where the nail's colour changes. This is called the 'quick' and it's the living part of the nail. You cannot clip past the quick, some cats will bleed, and trimming down to the paw is just flat out cruel.
Trimming claws, however, is very commonplace. Start doing it when your cat is a kitten and always give them a treat after so they know there's a reward after.

>>8404347
Hairless cat. You can also share the lolita feels as they often need to wear clothes to keep their skin protected or keep warm.

There is a cat and a dog in my family and I don't have much trouble keeping hair away from my clothes, but I honestly don't understand why it is a big problem for everyone anyway. It's just animal hair not acid and as much as I don't like hair on my clothes because it looks messy it's really not that big a deal. just lint roll it. They are just clothes. I assume everyone gets their clothes cleaned before selling anyways (not really a reality though) so why is this a problem? Do people really get judged because they pat or cuddle animals while in lolita? That just sounds obtuse.

>>8404995
Well I'm judgmental of anyone who uses the word 'pet' because I think 'owning' a living being for ones entertainment or personal pleasure is fucking sick and more than a bit twisted.

So have fun holding a ruler up to someones soul i.e an unmeasurable, subjective, non-existant "entity" while you fondle your fun little fury toys that you keep locked away for your own personal pleasures.

>>8405075 makes a good point, a baby gate in the doorway of the room or closet, and lots of proper toys. Make sure the accessories you get are proper too, safe and from reputable brands. Kawaii ain't kawaii when it's toxic, not colorfast, or halfway down the small intestine.

Pets aren't something you get just to prove a soul, you only commit to one if you're sure you can afford the time and energy for it. So, if people are busy, I'd really rather they know their lmits and don't get pets at all, rather than get one and then abuse it.

One thing - train your Pomeranian right from the beginning. Be strict. Pomeranians have a huge ego and they're stubborn as fuck so if you don't put it in its place right away, it'll never learn to obey you. Even though it's a small dog breed, they can still be assholes if you can't control them. Read up about dog training and never give in to your dog.

Otherwise pomeranians are wonderful, extremely smart and cute as hell. They don't bark THAT much, I've had other breeds that are a lot more prone to barking. The main issue is their obstinacy and habit to be imprinted on their owner so they follow you around a lot and you're pretty much their world. They also have health issues but nothing serious, teeth and knee problem mostly.

I have a dumb little yorkshire terrier/chihuahua mix. She doesn't shed much thank goodness, but she's a pain. If I come out of my room in anything other than jeans and a t-shirt, she doesn't recognize me and will bark to high heaven. And she has one of those annoying high pitched yappy barks that echos. But when I come home, she'll jump all over my legs. Many a pair of tights have been shredded. At least she's gotten over her shoe fetish and she was never able to destroy my good shoes. Except she did eat an adorable pair of white mary janes that I've never been able to replace.

But good news is she honestly loves wearing cute dresses and collars and shit. I think she loves dressing up more than I do. I've actually been kind of tempted to get one or two of Bodyline's little kid dresses and make something for her.

[Anonymous No.8405747]

I have a German Shepherd and he sheds profusely, especially during this time of the year when it's getting warmer. He's not allowed in my room, but his fur somehow still gets in. I keep all of my dresses hanged (hung? what is engrish) up in my closet, which is always closed.

Though whenever I do wear lolita, he likes to walk close beside me, getting his fur on my dresses. I usually just carry a lint roller around and it takes the fur right off. No big deal.

If you spend hundreds of dollars on a dress, you want to keep it as immaculate as possible, especially if you're wearing it for a special occasion. I normally don't care if I have cat hair on my clothes, and even if it's not abundant, I'll usually find at least one in my food, even if I go to a restaurant. Pet hair in food is not rori desu.

I have two cats, and I just keep my Lolita stuff out of their reach. Cat hair is an inevitability, so I just have lint rollers everywhere and make sure I'm good before I leave for a meet.

I trim my cats' claws, so I'm not worried about snags, but one of them likes to chew on leather (real or faux) so I'm careful to keep purses and shoes put away in the closet.

I don't sell stuff much anymore, but when I did, I just disclosed that I had cats, and cleaned items thoroughly before shipping. Never had any complaints about it.

I wouldnt hold or pet or go fill their water in food in lolita or jfashion (they practically live in their shit between cleanings, they poop when you least expect it, and they might have dirt/whatever on them) but they are cute lil buggers.

You should probably be the one asking if the owner has pets tbh. If your allergy is that bad, you should be taking the precaution, because 80% of people aren't going to have any issues with the clothing as long as it's not covered in fur or otherwise dirtied because of the animal.

Hey fellow cat lovers, you should check out a breed called the Devon Rex. They have a short curly coat, even their whiskers are curly. They have a very soft coat that feels like rabbit and they shed much less than other cats. I'm allergic to cats and I have 4 Devon's. They don't bother me at all. All four of them together shed less than one normal cat. They have a calm, bold nature that makes them an excellent traveling companion (or convention friend). They also come in every color, which is nice.

Jellies are really hard to keep. Saltwater tanks are expensive and fragile enough as it is for the most basic ass fish, inverts, and corals...but jellyfish are so easy to fuck up it's not even funny. They are super sensitive to changes in water circulation and temperature and honestly they're not very practical right now for even advanced saltwater hobbyists. If you're seriously interested in keeping jellyfish, wait until you're both rich and available technology improves.

They actually make a special kit you can order now. I wanted to do it but I'm moving soon and don't have the money. They send you the tank and shit first and once you have it up and running properly they send you the jellies. It's really simple and easy apparently, and the tanks are pretty neat.

Because saltwater fishkeeping is a high-maintenance and high-risk hobby, people with a shit product to sell are always looking to capitalize on this market. Anyone trying to oversimplify the care of extremely delicate animals like this are trying to take advantage of the fact that there will always be people who don't know any better. You're much better off waiting until you can actually invest money in a set up that is both good quality and sustainable, instead of trying to buy a "special kit" from a company that won't continue making that product or possibly even exist in three years.

I usually have dogs, probably getting another one soon since my previous one died of very advanced old age over a year ago (she was 17! a pretty good run indeed), and I find them really helpful for managing my anxiety issues.
I don't have a lot of photos with them where I'm wearing lolita, but the one that died more recently would only ever cuddle up to me and put her head on my lap when I was wearing lolita. She liked the poof.
Have a babby!ita photo from 9 years ago with them, in a very oldschool shiro outfit.
The one with the upright ears is the one that made it to 17, she was the runt of a sled dog racing litter, and the other was a weird beagle-y mutt who died a couple of years after this photo was taken from an inoperable brain tumor.

On the topic of dyson, I think they sell a specific attachment for picking up hair off carpets and clothes, other brands probably do something similar. It's like a rotating brush, I usually use it to vacuum the car after the dog has been in too often, and it stops the fur from messing up the machine because the bulk of it doesn't get past the attachment.
