Am I missing something? I don't see anything in there about smoking around your pet, just pets getting into edibles, eating concentrates or flowers, etc. Obviously you shouldn't blow smoke in your pet's face or hotbox with them, but I don't see anything that suggests vaping or smoking with an air purifier running or a window open and not letting them access the weed itself is harmful for them.

Right in the beginning, the article mentions that inhaling secondhand smoke can be bad for cats.

[-] vd1n@lemmy.ml 22 points 2 years ago

I appreciate you not just being an "omg you didn't read the article!!!!!!!" poster. And giving the info the op needed.

[-] Emanuel@lemmy.eco.br 9 points 2 years ago

People miss stuff when reading. I know I do. Also, it is potentially helpful information for cats, which I am not at all opposed to spreading.

[-] Catoblepas 7 points 2 years ago

Thanks, I was looking under the section that lists cannabis products that are toxic to cats, which doesn't mention secondhand smoke at all.

[-] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Please reconsider spreading misinformation and half-truths; this only leads to fear-mongering and does not help anyone.

[-] Odd_so_Star_so_Odd@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Indeed, get a vaporizer!

[-] probablynaked@lemmy.world 28 points 2 years ago

What a vibe

[-] SpezCanLigmaBalls@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Too accurate but have to add week days in there also

[-] vd1n@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago

Is there a catnip for dogs?

[-] Bipta@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

No. Catnip triggers some cat-specific pheromone receptors if I recall.

[-] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Which can be different in differnet cats. Some barely react, others will roll around in a plant until it dies.

Luck of the draw.

[-] Shiggles@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Hilariously, my littermate cats are opposites, one doesn’t notice it at all, while his brother absolutely goes wild for the stuff. So cat 1 just sits there all judgmental watching cat 2 roll around

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

There are two closely related species: Catnip (Nepeta cataria) and Catmint (N. racemosa). If your cat isn't attracted to one, there's a good chance they will be triggered by the other.

[-] MissJinx@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I bought a catnip plant, the real 0lant in a pot not dried herb. This plant smels so strong! you get 1 leaf at a time and they go insane

Don't smoke around your pets- it's worse for their lungs.

But like by all means smoke, just do it outside.

Also I love cats

Is the answer, “What I will work any number of hours to avoid,” Alex?

[-] 40hands@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago

Like a good slave.

My worst nightmare is doing nothing.

When I inevitably go to hell, I’ll be forced to sit in my bedroom and smoke pot all day.

[-] SpezCanLigmaBalls@lemmy.world 47 points 2 years ago

All I’m hearing is that you can’t stand to have a quiet moment with yourself so you need to keep yourself busy 24/7

[-] Feirdro@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Likely true. But can they spend a quiet moment with themselves without pot?

It’s all just coping mechanisms. To each their own.

[-] SpezCanLigmaBalls@lemmy.world 32 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Fair but you seem to be making assumptions for all pot smokers. I use my dry herb vaporizers every night I get in bed and yet I’ll meditate when I’m sober and I would consider meditating having a quiet moment to yourself. Also what’s the point of that comment if your way to cope is keeping yourself busy 24/7 just to then say to each their own?

You’re also saying this on a post that’s called “my weekends”. What’s wrong with getting baked on weekends? Reading this type of stuff about weed is so annoying cause it’s usually the people who never used it that are the quickest to judge and wouldn’t bat an eye to booze. Or they tried it, didn’t enjoy, and now make snarky remarks whenever they can towards it

[-] kurwa@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

People like that are just a bunch of sore losers who don't like other people enjoying themselves.

[-] electriccars@startrek.website 23 points 2 years ago

Guys! We found the person of legend! Someone who lives to work!

Who needs to relax? Just work all the time!

Hey now don't be making fun of that person.... Someone has to sell twizzlers at the 711

[-] favrion@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

You're talking about a two-dimensional cartoon character.

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago

Lol wow, pathetic; born without a spine! Keep licking those boots, that piss-scented liquid is just the wealth trickling down...

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Please tell me you're a troll and not actually this much of a smug loser. Please.

I’m in this picture, and it’s dope.
