Like A Dangerous Cat: Yandere!Aizawa

See, here's the thing. (And don't get me wrong, to each their own.) I come across Yandere!Aizawa fics time and again, that forget his crucial truth. This man? THIS man... is fuckin EXHAUSTED.

No sexy body or "ooooh~ IMPRISON ME sempai~♡" energy is gonna motivate him enough to get out of his damn sleeping bag. No today, not tomorrow. Not EVER. He's best friends with Nemuri, for god's sake. He's seen finer tits for far less effort.

And HURTING you? Why would he do THAT? You got something to confess? He has more then a few cops on speed dial. He WILL if he must... but for your sake. Do Not Make Him Do That.

It's his napping time.

He gets that so, SO fucking rarely.

But! Does this mean he can not become a Yandere? Are we cursed to a hot hobo-daddy-less Yandere-free world?

The FUCK it does!

He has SO much love to give. And is that not the CORE of the Yandere? The love? The OBSESSION. Hey, real quick, how much of his personality has he completely reshaped around the hole Oboro left in his life? How far do you think he would GO for Mic? What do you think he would DO?

The thing is? He's not the sort of Yandere that would ever hurt or humiliate his Darling. Oh no, he'd sooner die. Take you all with him. No...

No he's a HERO.

He's gonna PROTECT them. Make them HAPPY. Bask in the light of it, like a cat on a sunbeam. And? HOW he protects them? What he needs to DO, to make sure everything is SAFE? That their dreams come true and their path is full of nothing but rose petal n light? Well... they don't need to know about THAT do they?

That's his JOB, isn't it?

To be a HERO. To PROTECT. Keep watch, just in case.

And? He is the sort of Yandere you'll NEVER notice. Others will. They'll never get the chance to WARN you, but they'll notice. Or, they'll already be so wrapped up in his madness, that it all feels normal.

You'll just... start finding your life easier, all of a sudden. Little things will start going your way. Then bigger and bigger. That creep who kept cat calling you? Finally stopped! The rumored pervert around the neighborhood? Caught! Oh! Look! You didn't even KNOW about this sale!

Wonder how the ad even GOT to you...

Still, you'll brush it off. Pet some cats. Wonder why all the guys who used to hit on you STOPPED. Figure they were messing with you. Oh, hey! Promotion! You buy nicer coffee for the weird hobo looking Hero that uses your balcony as a patrol rest stop.

You DID offer.

Even set up a lil coffee maker out there. Electric kettle. A lockable snack box n stuff. You figured he wouldn't trust food left to the open air. It's suspicious, right? He knocked on your sliding door and asked about it. You guys had a conversation and everything. Was pretty cool.

And? Slowly? He'll pull you in. Vague thank you notes becoming polite but generic "how are you"s. Which of course meanders in to questions about things you mention. Longer responses from you. More and more notes. Until? Oh, he just HAPPENS to be early today...

Slowly, carefully, dragging you into his friend group. Letting Mic do the heavy social lifting. Letting Nemuri do the loud girls nights. Letting you roam free, happy and oblivious. Careful as he peppers in the benefits of working for UA. Good pay, excellent protection, unmatchable care package...

Ah, but he's rambling, you were mentioning your unreasonable boss?

And of course, his friends will tease. He has a "crush". That's one word for what he feels. They suggest dates and hookups. It sounds awful. He has an almost comically low sex drive. You would too, with working hours like his. WOULD he though?

The second you showed interest. In anyway you'd have him. Like it's his life's MISSION to get you off. He'd do RESEARCH. Deep dives. Your computer? Hacked. Your search history? Gone through with a fine tooth comb. He found your smut stash WEEKS ago. Has copies of every title, been going through them like he's studying for a final.

He's been friends with Nemuri for YEARS. Knows things youve never even considered. If not from HER, then from her 18+ Hero work friends. They're loud. He's vaguely annoyed that it actually HAS become useful knowledge.

And? The thought of having you completely, taking you apart, holding you, boneless and soft and warm against him? Makes feels like some horny teenager, for how quick that does it for him. He has FANTASIES of what he would do to you, if he actually had enough time of to be well rested.

Wants to pamper you. Wants to limp, bruised and sore, to your apartment, so you'll WORRY. Want to pamper HIM. Want to focus on him. Pay attention to him. Be soft and careful and gentle with him. Your poor wounded hero...

Ah, he bets he could convince you to let him sleep, propped up in your arms.

It'd be so WARM.

In the meantime? He'll slowly get you used to him. Use Mic to do it. That's right, every hour is cuddle hour. It's good for mental health and hormonal regulation. Perfectly logical, really, to get some casual touch from trusted friends, right? Honestly, there's nothing to see here. He's harmless. Of course he can help braid your hair. Sure you can lean against him. Cold? Let's share a sleeping bag.

He's harmless.

Like a grumpy cat.

A big, dangerous cat.

Lucky Day! (Visual Novel)

Created by: JORDAN

Genre: Horror

Phew, really going with these yanjam games. Lucky Day! is the prequel to Dr. Morgan’s Counseling Session and I think that it is a major improvement in a lot of different aspects. What is really nice is that true ending into the events of the next game, which I really liked. If you are interested in more information on these games, you can find them at @verinefan for more information.

In total there are nine different endings you can get- one for discovering what Oliver is doing in every strange thing that happens, one for ignoring him, one for being completely oblivious, one neutral ending and one true ending that feeds into the next game. I'll be splicing the other endings between each day while writing the summary portion.

The story starts with the MC going to the pet store to buy somethings for their friend's pet. After grumbling to find the items, they bump into a strange man who seems to need help. The MC offers his their help to find where the hamsters are located before leaving and giving the items to their friend. They have a tough following week and hopes for a better following week.

Rejecting to help this man will lead to it's own ending where the MC just continues on with life.

The MC ends up going to a garage sale and finding one of their favorite plushes in the sale for a cheap price. The MC brings it home only to find a strange beeping noise coming from it.

Opening the plushie will reveal a camera inside of it and the MC removes the SD card on it to inspect it. They notice that the person was the same one they met in the pet store and that they planted the plushie in the yard sale. Oliver knocks on the door, and the MC escapes via car and runs him over.

The next day the MC is excited for a package they ordered. Opening the package reveals not what they bought but rather a USB. Within the USB are folders of different shows, games, music and other things that the MC likes. The MC notices a hidden unnamed folder.

Opening it will reveal countless photos and videos of things related to the MC. Scared, the MC tries to figure out what to do and if they should turn it to the police but instead decides to investigate it themselves. Looking through the photo properties, the MC is able to find the location of where it was taken. As it's close by, the MC decides to go to the location and finds a box to find some of the things that they had lost. Oliver ends up drugging the MC and taking them away.

The MC has a day off and decides to cancel some subscriptions to save some money. While going to cancel one of them, but realizes that something is weird and that all of the payment dates are off by a month.

Investigating further finds that all of the subscription have a Paypal connected underneath the MC's credit card. The MC is confused since if it was a hacker, why would they pay for all of them? The MC emails Oliver and Oliver response that they paid for them all because he likes them and hat they've been watching them. The MC cancels and blocks Oliver, locking the windows as well. At night, someone comes to knock on the door and runs into Oliver. The MC freaks out that he's broken in and the MC knocks him out and calls the police.

The next day the MC goes biking with a friend. You two enjoy the outdoors and then take a rest- only for the MC's friend to realize that they were being tracked. Checking on the bike, they find the tag on the bike.

Contacting the owner will have the MC and the friend call at a nearby cafe only to hear the ringtone nearby. Oliver responds stating that he didn't lose the tag, and that he was tracking the MC on purpose wanting to make sure they were okay. Your friend offers to hold onto the tag for you and the MC goes home only to find Oliver there who declares happily that he had come to pick them up. The MC gets knocked out due to the drugged food they were eating and Oliver takes them away.

The MC finishes a project for work the next day and a coworker apologizes for the bad last week and offers to treat them out for food. The MC agrees, but upon reaching the location, the coworkers apologizes for ditching at the last second and sends them money for a meal.

Looking for the coworker, the MC walks around and tries to call them only to hear the phone ring in an alleyway. The MC picks up a metal pipe for protection and finds a bloodied coworker with a Oliver standing on top of him. Oliver attempts to apologize to the MC before attacking them to prevent him from going to the police. The MC strikes back knocking Oliver out and calling the police/ambulance.

Ignoring or being mostly oblivious will lead to the MC having a nice week with one ending wishing every week were this lucky or wondering if they should have looked more into other things.

The true ending occurs if you build the MC's anxieties up but never catch Oliver. The MC has a bit of a panic attack and gets an ad about going to therapy which is what leads to the event of the next game.

Like I mentioned before, I honestly do think that the creator has improved a lot since their last game in terms of story, UI, artwork and everything. This game feels a lot more full (if that's the right word) and more colorful- it's really nice to see creator's improvements as they move onto another project or game.

Personally, I think the ways that Oliver was able to "improve" each day for the MC were all done fairly creatively. From the USB with all the things that the MC liked, to paying for their subscription services to tracking them on their bike ride, each of them have a fairly unique spin on how Oliver was able to track the MC. I think it's also nice that Oliver doesn't always win in his encounters and that the MC is generally a bit more prepared even when they do lose. I'm very used to yanderes that are able to win in all these kinds of bad endings, so it's nice to have it where it's a bit more matched. I also really like how the True ending is able to tie the prequel to the events of the next game so that it really does feel like a prequel. It was a good touch.

As a yandere, I did mention that Oliver was a bit clumsy in his methods and it continues in this as well. In each encounter, the events are generally suspicious or obviously weird in some way or another. A lot of the times, he seems to not be prepared when some things happen, like when the MC discovers that Oliver had knocked out their coworker or he comes in at a point where the MC can very easily retaliate like when he knocks on the door and the MC ends up running him over with their car. Oliver does seem to be pretty opaque when the MC does find out, stating straight out for instance when the MC asks him why he paid for his account, Oliver straight up tells the MC it's because he likes them instead of making up an excuse, or when trying to return the tag, tells them that he put it there on purpose. Even in cases where he does win like when he chloroforms the MC, the MC at least is a bit more prepared on what will happen and had to do work to track where the items were. Generally, it does seem like Oliver only purposefully interacts with the MC either because the MC finds out or he doesn't want to be sent to the police, and is happy just staying in the shadows and giving the MC different "gifts" to make their week better. Relatively harmless to the MC except when caught, which is on par with his other game.

Other than that, it seems like a pretty good prequel. If you have played Dr. Morgan’s Counseling Session but not this game, then I highly recommend you play it. It really builds on Oliver's character as a yandere and is just a fun time.

Versatility Unwrapped: The Power of Flexible Packaging Solutions

In the dynamic landscape of modern consumer goods, packaging plays a pivotal role beyond mere containment. It's a silent ambassador that communicates brand identity, preserves product integrity, and enhances user experience. Within this realm, flexible packaging versatile and innovative solution in USA, offering a myriad of benefits for both manufacturers and consumers alike.

Adaptability in Design

One of the primary advantages of flexible packaging lies in its adaptability. Unlike traditional rigid packaging formats, such as cans or glass jars, flexible packaging can be tailored to accommodate a wide range of shapes, sizes, and product types. This flexibility in design opens up endless possibilities for brands to differentiate themselves on the shelf and effectively cater to evolving consumer preferences.

Whether it's a resealable pouch for snacks, a stand-up bag for pet food, or a spouted pouch for liquids, flexible packaging offers the versatility to meet diverse packaging needs. This adaptability not only enhances product visibility but also optimizes shelf space utilization, ultimately driving sales and brand recognition.

Enhanced Sustainability

In an era marked by growing environmental consciousness, sustainability has become a top priority for consumers and businesses alike. Flexible packaging presents a compelling case in this regard, offering several eco-friendly advantages over traditional packaging materials.

First and foremost, flexible packaging typically generates less waste compared to rigid alternatives, thanks to its lightweight construction and efficient use of materials. Additionally, advancements in recyclable and compostable films have further bolstered the sustainability credentials of flexible packaging, allowing brands to minimize their environmental footprint without compromising on performance or durability.

Furthermore, the compact nature of flexible packaging translates to reduced transportation costs and carbon emissions, contributing to overall supply chain sustainability. By embracing flexible packaging solutions, brands can align themselves with the growing demand for eco-conscious products and demonstrate their commitment to environmental stewardship.

Preservation of Product Freshness

Maintaining product freshness and shelf life is a critical consideration for manufacturers across various industries, particularly in sectors such as food and beverage. Flexible packaging excels in this aspect, offering superior barrier properties that effectively safeguard against moisture, oxygen, light, and other external factors that can compromise product quality.

Whether it's extending the shelf life of perishable goods or preserving the flavor and aroma of delicate ingredients, flexible packaging provides an effective barrier against environmental contaminants. This not only enhances product integrity but also reduces food waste and enhances overall consumer satisfaction.

Moreover, advancements in active and intelligent packaging technologies have further enhanced the functionality of flexible packaging by incorporating features such as oxygen scavengers, moisture absorbers, and temperature indicators. These innovations empower brands to deliver products that are fresher, safer, and more appealing to consumers, thereby fostering trust and loyalty in their brand.

Conclusion

In conclusion, flexible packaging represents a paradigm shift in the world of packaging, offering a versatile, sustainable, and efficient solution for modern businesses. From its adaptability in design to its enhanced sustainability credentials and superior product preservation capabilities, flexible packaging continues to redefine industry standards and unlock new possibilities for brands across the globe.

By embracing the power of flexible packaging solutions, businesses can not

only elevate their brand presence and market competitiveness but also contribute to a more sustainable and consumer-centric future. As consumer preferences continue to evolve and environmental concerns grow more pronounced, flexible packaging stands poised to remain at the forefront of innovation, driving positive change and delivering value at every touchpoint of the product journey.

In this ever-evolving landscape, the true power of flexible packaging lies in its ability to adapt, innovate, and inspire meaningful connections between brands and consumers. As we look towards the future, let us embrace the limitless possibilities of flexible packaging and unlock a world of endless potential.

Not a Modder (Just like to think creatively)

THE SIMS 4 HORSE RANCH

These were ideas I had before the pack came out with just knowing we were getting horses, nectar making, and mini-goats and sheep and just thought of how much more they could've done.

Tabletop dancing -> broken arm, leg, drunken antics, ie consequences

Bulk -> sell to bars, shipping, packaging, (carton of eggs, wine, boxes of apples), (personally would like to see cat and dog food as a purchasable item, cans and bags and tupperware)

Scouts update - > fundraising, bake sales / cookie drive, and horse camp

Lasso -> toddler to elder, child+ competitions

billiards -> social activity for teen+, random outcome, betting, pool hall

motorcycles -> we have bikes, wouldn't this basically be the same animation without the moving feet.

Rodeos - > with zero pixel animal abuse - social event and competition (using mechanical bull riding) at a saloon lot type with saloon doors

glasswork, ironwork, stones -> gold or stones from river, mining, making horseshoes, glassblowing, bead-making

any indigenous gameplay?! Sage harvestable, burnable, craftable sage, weaving skill, dreamcatchers, totems, blankets, books/conversing with sim about culture - > beads, jewelry, knitting addons - > crafting table

horse plow -> attachable wheel barrow to mass harvest all

mischief and politics -> new protests, new policies, and the urban legend of cowtipping

petting zoo - > update to barn to free llama and cow, ability to lock bunnies in, employee a fox, [just adding snakes and lizards]

nectar making - > should've been in mws - winetasting, order bottle during meal, blends, nameable, snob interactions and/or moodlets about the notes, make box wine [low, get drunk quick quality],

stare down - > rude introduction

pianola - > upgradable to play on its own [even though not historically accurate] - > ability to play piano drunk

MY IDEAS AFTER THE PACK WAS RELEASED (and I've spent like two days in game, not bored just drawing out that single drop of gameplay) - this is mainly where the "not a modder" comes in as I have no idea how easy or difficult it would be to add these things.

First off, lock that dance behind a skill or something

A Wandering Cowboy Mod - a cowboy NPC shows up randomly at my doorstep, is he hurt, is he friendly, is he a burglar, is he here to start a quest???

^^^ same concept but Alien Crash landing

Horses that steers goats/cattle back.

Ability to lead horses

Horse betting / mini game (make my rich sims poor)

Obvi, wild horses

Ability to brush teeth and/or an actual horse bath

Horsegirl books, toys, interactions,

Holster gun match with chances of misfire, with either possibly dying, etc, (historic version of this too)

Gunslingers and Bounty Hunters

obvi, Unicorn things; could be cool if used to cure all sickness/alignments from other mods and/or resets their age and/or work like Father Winter.

Bank Heists

A fiddle or banjo.

Ability to craft all the furniture with woodworking table.

Falling off the horse -> consequences

Replace in-game harvestable grapes with debug grape vines

Dual riders, teach to ride for children, romantic kiss where one sim is on the horse and the other is standing below them, lift onto horse to kiss, thrown over the horse and taken, watching stars together while sitting on horses

Nothing to do with westerns but the rocking horse mod made me want a rocket ride coin machine mod

Add with more thoughts later.

A not-so-simple relocation, days 19-27

Hi. Been sick for a while there, plus a whole heck of a lot of depression hitting gave me a nice one-two punch toward writing this up. Kriatyrr gave me a flu/cold/not-covid-because-we-tested thing last week and it basically KO'd me. I'm fine at this point, but that kind of put a bit of a damper on doing, well, just about anything. Where did I last leave off? *reads the previous entry*

Oh, right. The Mail Saga, Part 2

That's right, mail! Last time I mentioned that I basically didn't exist according to the Norwegian postal service. Specifically:

I ordered cat supplies (food, tree, shrub, water fountain) from the website on the 24th of May. I pay for home delivery instead of to a package drop-off because cat trees be heavy, yo.

Tracking information became available on the 29th of May. Turns out, the pet supply site is based in Germany and I didn't realize it. [5 days / 2 or 3 business days; I'm counting as three because Germany doesn't have it as a holiday, just the US and Norway]

1st of June, the packages arrive in Oslo. This is a Thursday, so I thought Oslo might actually have their shit together on Thursdays. [8 days / 6 business days]

First "attempt" at delivery occurred on the 2nd of June. The post office claims to have no knowledge as to what my address is. For reference, my address is, in fact, directly on these boxes, but I assumed that something went wrong on the store side of things. [9 days / 7 business days]

I contacted the company I bought the items from, as per the instructions from the Norwegian postal service. Unfortunately, they had shut down their chat an hour prior to the postal service contacting me.

I heard back from the store on the 5th of June, saying that the address was indeed correct and the Norwegian postal service just didn't deliver the package to my home for some reason? [12 days / 8 business days]

Later that same day, the Norwegian postal service decides to drop off the packages at the package drop-off area located inside of the mini-mall. This is around 20 minutes by foot away, and these packages are around 70kg / 150 lbs; just... no way in hell am I able to pick that up. I get that information and ask them to deliver it to my home, paying again to have home delivery. This time, I give them Kriatyrr's phone number instead of mind. Keep in mind, Kriatyrr has been ordering things delivered by the same postal service without issue during this entire time.

7th of June, the Norwegian postal service picks up the packages from the mini-mall and brings them to a terminal. By this point, my cats would be eating my face if I hadn't found the vet that had some T/D for sale. [14 days / 10 business days]

8th of June, the Norwegian postal service drops the packages off... at the package drop-off area located inside of the mini-mall. That's right, they picked them up, brought them to a depot, turned around, and put them right back where they were. [16 days / 12 business days]

9th of June, I start trying to find out how to just contact the post office to ask them WTF, mate? but to no avail. By this point my voice is mostly gone and both Kriatyrr and I are sick. Neither of us like calling people to begin with and that appeared to be the only option. [17 days / 13 business days]

12th of June, I finally figure out how to break their chat bot enough to force them to direct me to customer support. Seriously, I literally broke the bot enough where it started swapping languages willy-nilly on me and kept breaking it until I found a consistent path to a secret queue. [20 days / 14 business days]

I explain to the support agent the situation and give them the three tracking numbers. The support agent is utterly dumbfounded as to what the hell happened and literally ordered someone to take a car to pick up the dang boxes like I had paid for twice.

14th of June, the packages are picked up from the mini-mall. They are dropped off in front of my apartment, as per my original request. The boxes are heavily damaged, there are holes large enough for all of the objects ordered to fall through, but everything is accounted for. [22 days / 16 business days]

I... I have no words. This can't be just incompetence, there are too many people involved. They literally delivered other packages with the same address on them to the same apartment. My mail was delivered to the correct mailbox with the same name on it even.

Good news though, my cats now have a very scenic cat tree.

Depression sucks, especially when it gets a new vector to intrude in on my thoughts.

I don't think I've mentioned this too much around social media, but I was formally diagnosed with "Major Depressive Disorder (Severe) With Anxious Distress" (DSM-5's name for "your brain gots it BAD", I think) quite some time ago. I say "was" and "had" because, as of around the time I finally started the process of moving after all of my myriad delays, I was reclassified as having Major Depressive Disorder (Partial Remission).

While logically I understand that I'm living in a new country/region/culture/etc and it is going to take a lot of time to adjust, I still feel like I've made a terrible mistake. It doesn't help that, looking at pure mathematics, this has been the single most expensive decision of my life by a very large margin. With how much this has cost me in both literal-dollars and future-dollars, this likely set me back 5-10 years on retirement.

Those two bits? Definitely not unrelated. I'm basically never sure how much of this is StupidBrain (tm) trying to worm itself back in to throw me back to my major depressive episodes, how much of it is that I genuinely made a really bad decision, and how much of it is "this is bullshit but temporary". Everyone else tells me it is the latter, but I keep finding more and more evidence that this is probably one of the two other decisions.

Kriatyrr left today to head back to their other home. Their kitties are (hopefully) waiting on their arrival back in the middle of nowhere but unfortunately this means that I'm by myself again - the exact situation that I try to avoid whenever possible, since that's my severe depression trigger button. I'm okay right now, but I'm concerned, if that makes sense.

Other things

I wasn't actually well by day 19 as per my previous entry, it just fluctuated a bit first. It was more like day 21 that I felt well enough to go walking again.

Speaking of walking, Stupid Hill (tm) is still stupid, but I'm walking up it much faster than before. I don't know if it is a different pacing than before, or my legs adjusted to elevation being a thing, or just "I'm getting back into shape", but I can make halfway decent time walking up the hill now, only needing to take a break if I have to go to the mini-mall.

The Mini-Mall

I guess this needs a bit more description. Norway, like much of mainland Europe as far as I know, has a lot of shopping malls. Unlike the US and Canada, they're typically located at centers of public transit; the main mall nearby me is at a transfer point three stops to the west of where I live... but there is a mall closer. Much closer - it is one stop west on the main bus line by my home and is a reasonable walk from my apartment. It... doesn't really have much in it though, and the hours leave a lot to be desired.

The mall has a grocery store (common in Europe, and I really don't understand why it is so uncommon in the US), Asian import food store, doctor's office, dentist, department store, furniture store, clothing stores, consignment shop, and a handful of restaurants. Really though, beyond the restaurants, I actually have closer things to me than the mall to fulfill those needs. If I want to go slightly further time-wise, I can hit the main mall area instead.

It does, however, have a bakery. An actual not-inside-of-a-grocery-store independent bakery with freshly baked bread and pastries on the daily. One of the objectives I had when it came to choosing a place to move to was having a place to walk to on a regular basis. This means having a goal in mind... and the goal I selected was a bakery.

Next week, I'm going to start regularly going to the bakery. We'll see how well this works.

Last time:

[adinafay]

In my hometown, that guy was Ron.

I don’t know what his official education may have been, but I do know that he has been around the block a few times when it came to reptiles.

He once told my father and I a story about how, as a 12-year-old in the 60s, he got “some chameleon eggs for almost nothing, because nobody was very good at hatching chameleons back then and didn’t think they’d be worth raising.” You know who was apparently pretty good at hatching chameleons though, even in the 60s? Ron. As he told it, he had one hell of a time explaining to his parents 1) why there were 60-some-odd baby chameleons loose in the bathroom and 2) what the hell he was going to do about it. He credited “a lot of research about chameleons and,” – he emphasized this – “their native habitat” for his success in not just hatching all those eggs, but also keeping the majority alive long enough to be past the riskiest parts of life and safely rehomed. He then told us he got a license to import exotic reptiles at age 15 – before he could even drive.

I don’t know what all-else Ron did between then and the point at which he “retired” to owning and operating a reptile store with his wife, Donna; but, I do know that Ron’s Reptiles was, if not the best, my favorite pet store of all time.

Ron and Donna ran the store out of their home on the rural edge of town. It was out of the way to get to and inside it was rather cramped and, perhaps expectedly, smelled like reptiles (which is not a bad or dirty scent, but one of coconut husk and aspen shavings and the specific and peculiar musk of shed skin). It was not a very large home and you could see into their livingroom and kitchen through one of the rooms; I got to meet their dogs over the small gate they had set up so they could easily move between the two when their scattered customers showed up. In this not-very-large home the two front rooms were the two officially open to the public during business hours.

As you would walk in the front door you’d be met with a shallow hallway, with primarily merchandise – enclosures, decor, packaged foods – and their living area to the right and the majority of animals to the left. Both rooms were fun to explore and most – if not all – of their own animals were also out on display, with name-plates and descriptions on their enclosures instead of sale-prices. Even more fun could be had, though.

Because, if they weren’t too busy and you asked nicely, both Ron and Donna were always happy to give you a reptile experience.

They might open up some of the adult, breeding animals’ enclosures and introduce you; because every one had a name and a story. They might give you some lettuce and let you feed the huge sulcata tortoises or the puppy-dog rhino iguana. On extra special occasions, they might let you in to see the eggs and newest hatchlings in the back, or take you outside to tour the rodent sheds.

And, of course, Ron’s Reptiles could also be hired for those ever-memorable reptile parties and classroom talks.

Every interaction I ever had with Ron – at his store, the local reptile show (which he founded, btw), or one of his educational talks – it was crystal clear exactly how very much he loved reptiles and how excited he was for the opportunity to share his knowledge and experiences and joy with anyone and everyone. He was even once on the front page of the Wall Street journal talking about his snakes.

Ron’s Reptiles closed a few years ago – Ron was having a tough time running everything by himself after Donna passed. He moved to Arizona not long after – to be closer to his children and grandchildren, I believe – and he let many of his animals go in the process. I don’t know what he’s up to now, but some of his animals are still being used as animal ambassadors in my hometown. Living-torches passed down to a new team of educators working to dispel myths and spread a love of reptiles amongst new generations of children.

Children who will wake up one day and wonder, “who even was that? what were their credentials?”

Why Choose a Chihuahua?

Chihuahuas are small in size but big in personality, making them a popular choice among dog lovers. Here’s why Chihuahuas make such fantastic companions:

Compact and City-Friendly: Chihuahuas are one of the smallest dog breeds, making them perfect for apartment living in Singapore.

Loyal and Protective: These tiny dogs form strong bonds with their owners and are known for their loyalty. They are often very alert, acting as excellent little watchdogs.

Playful and Energetic: Chihuahuas may be small, but they are full of energy! They love playtime and interactive toys, making them fun to have around.

Low Exercise Requirements: Due to their size, Chihuahuas don’t require a lot of exercise. Short daily walks and indoor play sessions are enough to keep them fit.

Where to Find Chihuahua Puppies for Sale in Singapore

Finding a healthy Chihuahua puppy requires choosing a reputable breeder or a trusted pet shop. Here’s how to find a responsible seller in Singapore:

Look for Reputable Breeders: A reputable breeder will prioritize the health and well-being of their puppies. Ask for health certificates, vaccination records, and details about the puppy’s lineage to ensure you’re getting a healthy Chihuahua.

Consider Licensed Pet Shops: Many licensed pet shops in Singapore work with ethical breeders to offer Chihuahua puppies. Ensure they provide health guarantees and follow ethical breeding practices.

Check Adoption Options: Occasionally, adoption centers in Singapore have Chihuahuas or Chihuahua mixes available for rehoming. This is a fantastic option if you’re open to adopting and giving a dog a new home.

What to Expect from a Chihuahua Puppy

Chihuahua puppies are a joy to have around, but they do have some unique characteristics. Here’s what you can expect from your new Chihuahua puppy:

Big Personality in a Small Package: Chihuahuas are known for their bold and often sassy personalities. They may be small, but they’re packed with confidence and charm!

Loyal and Affectionate: Chihuahuas tend to be very devoted to their owners and love spending time cuddling and being close to their family members.

Puppy-Proof Your Home: These tiny puppies are curious and can get into tight spaces, so ensure that your home is free from hazards like small objects they could swallow.

Establish a Routine: Chihuahuas thrive on routine, so set up regular feeding, playtime, and potty schedules to help them feel secure.

Caring for Your Chihuahua’s Unique Needs

Chihuahuas may be low-maintenance in some ways, but they have unique care requirements that you should keep in mind:

Balanced Diet: Due to their small size, Chihuahuas can be prone to obesity, so it’s important to feed them a balanced diet with the right portion sizes. High-quality dog food for small breeds is ideal.

Regular Vet Check-Ups: Chihuahuas can be prone to certain health issues, such as dental problems, so regular vet visits are crucial for monitoring their health.

Dental Care: Small dog breeds like Chihuahuas are more susceptible to dental issues. Regular tooth brushing and dental chews can help keep their teeth and gums healthy.

Gentle Exercise: Short walks and indoor play are usually enough for Chihuahuas, but they still need some exercise to stay healthy and avoid weight gain.

Chihuahua Puppies and Singapore’s Lifestyle

Chihuahuas are a great match for Singapore’s urban lifestyle. Their size makes them easy to carry and perfect for apartments, and they enjoy spending time with their owners. Singapore also has many pet-friendly parks, cafes, and walking areas where your Chihuahua can safely explore and socialize.

Opening Your Own Homemade Dog Treats Store: A Recipe for Success

With more people treating their pets as family, the demand for high-quality, nutritious, and safe dog treats has skyrocketed. Opening a homemade dog treats store is a fantastic opportunity to tap into this growing market. If you're passionate about dogs and baking, turning that love into a business can be both fulfilling and profitable. In this article, we'll explore the steps to start a successful homemade dog treats store, from developing your recipes to marketing your products.

 Research and Develop Recipes

The foundation of your business will be the quality and uniqueness of your dog treats. Start by researching which ingredients are both healthy and safe for dogs. Avoid common allergens like chocolate, raisins, and artificial sweeteners like xylitol, which are toxic to pets. Instead, focus on using wholesome ingredients such as peanut butter, pumpkin, oats, and sweet potatoes, which are dog-friendly and nutritious.

Experiment with different recipes and flavors. You could create treats for different purposes, such as grain-free options, high-protein snacks, or even dental health biscuits. Don’t forget to make them visually appealing—shapes like bones or paws are always a hit!

 Understand Regulations

When selling pet food, even if it's homemade, you're entering a regulated market. Check with your local health department or agricultural agency to ensure you comply with food safety standards. Depending on your location, you might need a pet food manufacturing license or have to pass kitchen inspections. Packaging laws also require accurate ingredient labeling, so make sure you're transparent about what's in your treats.

In the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) set the guidelines for pet food production and sale. Be sure to read up on both federal and local regulations.

 Set Up Your Workspace

Since your treats are made for animals, not humans, some areas have different standards for preparation spaces. You might need a separate kitchen area designated for creating the treats, which will help meet health and safety requirements. Alternatively, renting a commercial kitchen is a good option if you're unable to meet these requirements at home.

You’ll also need basic baking equipment, storage for ingredients and finished products, and supplies for packaging and labeling. Eco-friendly packaging is an excellent choice, as many pet owners are environmentally conscious.

 Branding and Packaging

Creating a strong brand will help your homemade dog treats stand out. Choose a business name that reflects the nature of your products. Make sure your logo and packaging are attractive and professional—think of paw prints, bright colors, and happy dog imagery.

Your packaging should highlight the benefits of your treats, such as "All-Natural Ingredients" or "Grain-Free." If you use organic or locally sourced ingredients, make sure that’s featured prominently on the label. Customers are increasingly looking for products that align with their values, so sustainability and health-conscious messaging can resonate.

 Set Pricing and Test the Market

When pricing your treats, consider ingredient costs, packaging, and your time. You’ll want to find a balance between making a profit and offering customers reasonable prices. A good rule of thumb is to mark up your product by two to three times your cost.

Start selling at local farmers’ markets, pet events, or online through a website or platforms like Etsy. This will give you valuable feedback on pricing, flavors, and demand. Social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook are also excellent tools for building a following and sharing mouth-watering photos of your dog treats.

 Marketing Your Dog Treat Business

Once you’ve established your brand and created a product, it’s time to market it! Use social media to engage with potential customers. You can share photos, customer testimonials, and even dog-friendly events where your treats will be available. Collaborating with local pet influencers or dog owners can help spread the word about your business.

Consider working with local pet shops, groomers, or veterinarians to stock your treats in their stores or offer them as samples to their customers. Getting involved in community events, sponsoring dog-related activities, or donating to shelters are excellent ways to build goodwill and awareness.

 Stay Committed to Quality

As your business grows, maintaining the quality and consistency of your treats is crucial. Always use fresh, premium ingredients and keep an eye on your production process to ensure everything remains safe for pets. Invest in continuous learning—whether it’s new baking techniques, the latest pet food trends, or updated health regulations—to stay ahead of the competition.
