This bonded Caramel Arrow and Crunchy Chip duo took a liking to the LEGO cookie castle display I set up the other day! These two have a tendency to be extremely territorial, so until I can bond them to a Dark Cacao I’ve decided to keep them in here for now.

… They did not take a liking to the GingerBrave figurine in the castle however. Needless to say, I won’t be allowing other cookies around these two for a little while 😅

REMEMBER TO ALWAYS KEEP YOUR SQUINK HYDRATED!! Squinks are very water-based, and if they do not have a readily-available source of water near them they will begin to dry up! Some squinks, like this one here, like the feeling of running water - but be sure to keep the drain closed in this case!

So you know those mini dinosaur dig kits they sell at natural history museums? Turns out, they’re GREAT enrichment for Eclair Cookies! My Eclair here just finished excavating this allosaurus, and as you can see here, he’s very proud LOL.

Not only are they adorably Cookie-sized, but many Eclairs also like to catalogue each piece they find before adding it on to the skeleton, so kits like these will often last a few days!

The plastic tools this one came with were a little too flimsy, so I tried to kitbash some brushes and chisels and things from household items I had laying around - but he didn’t seem to mind too much. The last time I checked, he made some improvements so they won’t fall apart anytime soon!

Hello there, I am a dark Cacao Cookie owner well when I first got him he seems a bit mad and idk how to calm him down and he even tried to attack me

Hello! First of all, I would suggest you put him down as Dark Cacaos are naturally quite skittish! In my experience, it takes around six to eight weeks for Dark Cacao Cookies to learn to tolerate handling (however this will shorten depending on how much time you spend with him!)

I would also suggest you set up a temporary 'home' for him to get used to the space. If you have any Pure Vanillas, Crunchy Chips, or Caramel Arrows, introducing them could help ease the move-in process! Furthermore, if you have any Affogatos and you've noticed them spending time together, it would be best to separate them as there have been several cases of Affogatos encouraging violence or distrust around their owners or other cookies.

And my final piece of advice is: let him come to you! Although they are often solitary at first, Dark Cacaos are extremely loyal cookies. If you give him time, he will most likely approach you when he is comfortable doing so!

Good luck anon!

My name is Cinna, and I look after the Saccharine Home for Lost Cookies, an organization of my own making dedicated to the care of abandoned, neglected or abused cookies. I’ll often blog here about new arrivals to the family, or experiences I have with my cookie friends! (This blog is inspired by the awesome works of @thecookiefoster and @cookiecareguides !)

Spot the Cookie :)

This little baby is our newest arrival here! When I got a call about a wilting Herb I knew I had to drive over right away - even if it was quite literally three in the morning. Especially around my parts, where we’re having a bit of a heat wave, Herb Cookies can be very fragile.

Luckily, as soon as I gave him some water and plants to take care of, he perked right up! For new owners especially, PLEASE keep in mind that Herb Cookies require quite a few live plants to take care of in order to flourish! Like this bunch here that I picked up, I usually find it best to use a mix of wild herbs and flowers for variety.

And for those concerned Herb specialists out there, /yes, I did give him seeds to grow on his own./ As he was still wilting when we got home, I deemed it best to first give him some mature plant life to let him perk back up. This little buddy hadn’t seen real plants in quite some time! His previous caretakers were giving him plastic plants to take care of, I’ve said before and I’ll say it again, /please give Herb Cookies seeds and real plants to look after!/ They require no maintenance as Herbs will care for the plants themselves.

Peek-a-boo! Thought I’d give you guys an update on how life at the foster home is going, ft. this tiny Strawberry rescue, the newest member of our family!

This little one is the smallest Strawberry I’ve ever seen! She was brought in last Saturday by a neighbor who found her walking around in the rain, but with a little time in the toaster oven— I’ve found it’s less stressful than regular ovens for Cookies— she was all crisped up again! I do think her size is due to possible malnourishment, so I’ve been making sure to give her nutrient-rich jellies until she gets a little bigger.

I provided her with a Wizard and a Gingerbrave to bond with if she felt comfortable (make sure to let Strawberry have her alone time!) but I was surprised to see her spending more time around my Licorice and Poison Mushroom! I checked in to make sure there wasn’t any funny business going on but they seem to genuinely like each other, and Strawberry seems more comfortable interacting with other cookies with them around. Just goes to show you how different each cookie’s personality can be, despite species!
