I thought I was so smart putting my drink in a travel mug so it wouldn’t get spilled.

Cat tmiMelbcat spewed on it, hit it bullseye along with the carpet. The concave cup lid acted as a little basin 🤢

It’s rinsed off and in the sink while I decide how best to deep clean it or whether I can face using it again after that.

The carpet has been blotted well and soaked in biological cleaner so hopefully that should be okay. I’ll scrub and reapply if I need to.

Edit: the spinnos look a bit less happy today. They’re still valiantly pushing up leaves but one looks very slightly chewed, others have tiny pale bumps and pin fine light trails on them, and a few look wilted with dark stems near the soil. I wonder if they’re damping off
