Kitten vs orchid in s/h
I let the foster kittens out of their cage this morning. As they were running around one of them decided to go from the cat tree to the orchid shelves. He missed, caught himself on the side of the shelf and started to fall down. Before I could get over there to help him he grabbed my Paph 'Hsinying Alien' by the spike. He pulled it off the shelf and separated a baby fan from the mother plant. I was able to gather everything back together and put both plants back into the same pot.
When I got back from work I was able to repot the baby fan in a much smaller container. The root length total is about 3.5 inches long.
Did I do the right thing with putting the baby into a smaller container? The parent plant looks good and the bloom doesn't appear to have been damaged.
I also included a pic of the naughty kitten (finding out that my hair is fun to play with) and the baby.
