hehe - well my dog was always my helper with everything - had to make sure I did it right - now that she's gone, my cat supervises indoor watering. Tho he "helps" by asking to be picked up so he can see whats happening lol
And when he knows I am outside watering he scratches and meows behind the door, so then I end up stopping and bringing him outside for a bit. Such a good helper he is lol

Oh I WISH I had a helper! Maybe by the time my collection is big enough to justify a greenhouse (it's getting there...) I will have some little kiddies on hand that are willing to help; either my own, or some "borrowed" nieces & nephews. Makes me think of the old days when farmers used to have big families in order to have extra hands to help with the harvest. LOL

My guinea pig has appointed himself as helper. He's out and about whenever I'm home (only have a small studio apartment type place) and is impossible to keep away when I'm on the floor repotting. Some of my orchids have little bite sized chunks missing from their leaves!

Poshkitty helps by rounding up or hiding away any stray pieces of bark or leca that fall to the floor. I've found quite the collection behind the piano.

Jess, my whippet cross, positively disdains helping and goes off to sleep in a warm comfy place if I'm in the house, or persists in bringing her tennis ball to me if I'm in the shed

he he I have a turtle and if she were with me now she would be extremely curious to smell the bark and leca and taste the leafs.
