Hair’s a good compost additive.
I never knew that about hair! After brushing the cats, I always toss their gathered fur outside for birds to use in their nests. So far, I don’t know if they actually use it.
I have a number of collected nests (fallen - I would NEVER disturb a nest!) that have both shed dog fur and hair from the mule’s mane and tail in them. Little Jenny Wren nests - works of art! :)
My favorite is a Wren nest from The Best Black Lab Ever EVER - Cinder.
So funny! If my house is burning, I’m saving family photos my (found!) feather collection. my purse and my bird nests!
OK, maybe Beau. But he’d better already be hot-footing it out of the house, LOL!
