Yeah, grass can help in both directions. My long haired cat likes to have constant access to grass, it actually makes her puke less. My guess would be that the fiber helps to break up the hair clumps and move them faster down the digestive tract. But I've also had cats who only ate grass to make themselves puke.

Probably depends on the individual cat.

I do want to add that a lot of predators also eat the stomach of their prey and there for everything they ate and since most of their prey are either herbivores or omnivores they do consume some plant matter.

Most of the better quality cat foods I see that have veggies in it has like 80% - 95% meat and the rest vegetables, which I think tries to simulate the natural consumption of plant matter.

A lot of cats also eat grass on their own since the fiber helps with digestion.

Not only cats, most sounds are expressed differently in different languages. If you want to learn more about that you should search for cross-linguistic onomatopoeia.

I do have a 3d game in mind, not hyper realistic but maybe a similar style as the recent Zelda games BotW/TotK especially when it comes to the character/animal models. Thank you so much, this is very helpful!

 

I've had this game idea for a while but I have trouble finding the right keywords to research it properly.

In the end I want an animal breeding simulation, where the offsprings looks and stats are based on the parents genetics.

First I wanted to focus entirely on the fur color and pattern. So I want to make a program which I can feed the fur genetics of the mother and the genetics of the father and that then generates the genetics of the child which then also can be translated into an actual picture of the fur.

How could I do that? Where could I start?

No no, I'm just her transportation vehicle. She threatens me to go into dark alleyways, opens the bag and then starts asking strangers "Whaddaya buying?" in a deep raspy voice.

 
 

I'm having trouble with fungus gnats in one of my isopod containers. Whenever I replenish the humidity in that container they have an population explosion, but I can't let the container get too dry since that's going to kill my isopods.

Does anyone have a solution for this that's not going to be harmful for my isopods?

Yes, though it's Gale and Shadowheart that get stuck most of the time. Especially annoying are jumps that just go down and I cast featherfall on everyone, so they all can definitely jump no strength required, but they still get stuck...

One of my cats started to give birth while next to me. I was still a kid and thought she peed on the sofa so I went downstairs to get something to clean the mess, the cat followed me while having contractions. My mom realised what was happening and told me to leave her alone, so I tried to get away but the cat still followed me while having half a kitten hanging out. So I stayed with her the whole time. Rip little old Lisbeth.

If I remember right zebras are also black with white stripes.

Yeah they both have some serious mental issues and have not been good for each other.

I almost exclusively play single player games or multiplayer games with friends I know in real life. I've had some bad experiences with online gaming and they are often way too stressful for my liking.

Not Op, but another reason why some people might collect rainwater is that the tap water where they live is way to hard. The mineral content is very high and for example most houseplants cannot survive on it on the long-term. My dad also used rainwater for his aquarium fish.

Yes, there are ways to filter it and make it softer, but it's just way easier to just collect and store some rainwater.
