INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Ignoring the behavior is the best way to show that it won't get any attention from you. Don't look at the attention seeker or ask them to stop. Just simply pretend as though they aren't doing it. Many attention seekers enjoy negative as well as positive attention. For example, they might whistle because they know it will annoy you and you will snap at them. As hard as it might be, ignore the whistling in the future. Use ear plugs or listen to music while it happens. If the person uses stories to get your attention, make an excuse not to listen to them. For example, you might say, "I have to get work done now" or "I'm sorry, but I'm busy at the moment." If you can't ignore the person, try not to show any emotion while interacting with them. Don't express anger, frustration, or excitement. Don't fake being interested either. Just keep a cool, calm expression. For example, if your coworker sits down beside you and starts talking about an argument with your boss, just nod your head along. When they finish, tell them that you need to get back to work. Try not to ask any questions if they are telling a story. Respond using short statements like "that's nice" or "okay" instead. That said, if the person has a genuinely good idea or a fun story, don't be afraid to show your interest. Everyone needs genuine attention now and then. If you're actually interested in their hobbies or stories, you might enjoy the conversation. Playing the victim is a common way for attention seekers to gain sympathy and compliments. They may tell a dramatic story in which they were targeted and insulted. In response, ask objective questions about the facts of the story, not about the storyteller's emotions or perspective. For example, if they're ranting about how a cashier was rude to them, you might say, "What did they say exactly? Did they really call you that to your face? Where was the manager?" Attention seekers do what they do for a reaction. Some may engage in increasingly dramatic displays for attention. If the situation gets too much to handle, walk away. This will send them a sign that their antics will not give them the reaction that they want. Don't reward dangerous stunts or pranks with attention. If attention seeker engages in risky activities for attention, tell them outright, "I don't like seeing you harm yourself. If this continues, I'm not sure we can hang out." If you think the person is in danger of hurting themselves or another person, get them help as soon as possible. Some signs that they may be thinking of suicide include talking about their death, giving away their possessions, or increasing their use of alcohol or drugs. Consider calling or encouraging them to call 800-273-TALK, the National Suicide Prevention Hotline. If the person has numerous public displays of crying, screaming, or shouting, you may want to suggest that they see a mental health professional.

SUMMARY: Ignore them if they do something that bothers you. Remain calm during their antics. Ask for just the facts if they try to play the victim. Learn to walk away during dangerous or extreme situations.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You will need at least a ten to twenty gallon glass terrarium for your tree frog. This size can accommodate up to four frogs comfortably. Make sure that you have a properly fitting screen-top. This will ensure proper ventilation while keeping everything secure in your frog's habitat. Pet stores will often sell these terrariums. You will also be able to find them online. Remember the more frogs the larger the terrarium will have to be. The material lining the bottom of the cage is called a substrate. For your red-eyed tree frog, you should put down about two or three inches of non-fertilized potting soil. You can mix this soil with bed-a-beast bedding, orchid bark, coco coir, paper towels, or peat moss to give it more texture. The substrate should be scooped out and replaced every two to three months. Your frog will appreciate some items around the cage to climb and hide under. Find some natural, leafy looking furnishings to place in the cage. Make sure that these are non-toxic to prevent damage to your frog's sensitive skin. Coconut halves make great dens for the frogs. Leaves, driftwood, rocks, cork, and branches can give your frog something to climb and explore. You can put in both fake and living plants, but fake plants are easier to keep alive. During the day, the cage will need to be between 78 and 84 degrees F (25 and 28C). At night, the temperature can drop no more than ten degrees. If your room temperature is cooler than this, you may have to invest in heaters for your terrarium. There are several options for heating the terrarium: Low wattage heat bulbs can attach to the screen top. They provide enough heat without burning your frogs. Heat pads can rest beneath the cage. Look for ones specially designed for reptiles at your pet store. Be warned that if water touches the hot glass, it can crack the glass. Red or nocturnal bulbs can be left on all night to ensure around the clock warmth. Red-eyed tree frogs are nocturnal so extra lighting isn't necessarily. Bulbs would simply provide warmth.

SUMMARY:
Invest in a glass terrarium. Lay down a proper substrate. Furnish with leaves and natural decor. Keep the habitat warm.
