Whoops. How did he get there? PICNIC error. More carelessness with the
selection process. That said, he does have a habit of getting in places he
shouldn't be.

Oh yes, if you can, try and use a clear pot for them. It helps with
root growth *and* allows you to see if the bark mix needs watering, as
well as telling you when you need to pot on.


That was all fantastic Spider. Very much appreciated. If I manage not to
kill them, I'll keep you updated.



Is that a Bengal? Neighbour has one and it's totally mad, despite our cat
being a rotweiler in disguise it keeps trying to get into our house. How
many times does it need to be thumped with a paw full of claws before it
gets the message it's not welcome.
