Is it okay if I put a cactuc in my collared's cage?? It's kinda sharp and pointy (like a cactus is lol) but I don't want to hurt him.

I personally would not use the real sharp ones with needles !
Although in the desert they run across all kinds, there is plenty of room to steer clear also.

In a confined area of your tank may be different.

I have used Aloe and Chicks and Hens, and Hawortia, they are many more you could mess with without the SHARP STICKY needles hahhhaa.

Boy I love cacti as house plants,BUT... it stinks getting just those little fine STABBER things in your fingers, takes forever to find them and get them out.

Hope ya find some good ones,

Okay thanks Eve. I bought one with giant spikes....:S lol so I don't think I'll be using that one then. I'll try to find some that aren't so...deadly.
