If you are petite, you will have shorter legs or a shorter torso. Try high-waisted jeans that have a 29 inch inseam or lower, as they will elongate your legs. The inseam is the length of the jeans along the inside of your thighs. Try skinny high-waisted jeans if you are petite, as they will make your legs look longer and slimmer. Do not go for flared high-waisted pants, as they will swallow up your petite frame. Pear shaped means you carry weight in your hips, thighs, and bottom. High-waisted jeans with a wide waistband will give you full coverage from in front and behind. Look for high-waisted jeans that are boyfriend cut or bootcut denim to balance out your proportions. Avoid high-waisted jeans with no give in the waist, as this will squeeze your stomach and you will feel uncomfortable wearing them. An athletic build will be straight up and down. You can create curves by wearing flare style high-waisted jeans. Look for wide cut or full flare cut jeans that curve outward at the knee. If high-waisted jeans tend to flatten your butt, look for flare pants that have pockets that sit higher up on your butt to help add shape to this area. If you are above 5 feet 10 inches (1.5 metres 25 cm), you may struggle to find high-waisted jeans that fit your height. Look for high-waisted jeans that have a long inseam so they fit correctly. You can try high-waisted jeans that are wide-leg, skinny, or boyfriend cut as long as they have a 35 inches (88 cm) or higher inseam. To ensure the jeans fit your body, consider getting them hemmed to fit your height. Hem the bottom of straight or flared high-waisted jeans to just at the top of your toes. For skinny high-waisted jeans, get them hemmed just at the ankles. Do not hem skinny high-waisted jeans any higher than your ankles, as this will cause them to bunch up at your legs and make you look shorter.

Summary: Go for skinny jeans with a 29 inch (73 cm) inseam if you are petite. Try boyfriend style jeans with a wide waistband if you are pear shaped. Go for flare style jeans if you have an athletic build. Get jeans with a 35 inches (88 cm) or higher inseam if you are tall. Hem the jeans to your height.

You might try tossing a ball or crumpled up piece of paper across the room for him to chase. Or, buy a few fuzzy toys for him to bat around, buy a feather toy on a wand to wave for your cat to jump at, or use a laser cat toy for a fun game of catch the dot. Playing with your cat will keep his mind off food and help him become more active. Try to play with your cat for 10 to 15 minutes a day. This will give him much needed exercise. Buy a couple of food puzzle toys. Fill the toys with your cat's food so he can work at it to get the food. This will occupy his attention for quite a while as he bats the toy around and chases it to get to the food. Puzzle feeders offer environmental enrichment to indoor cats that don't have the opportunity to chase and hunt for food. Cats can use scratching posts to let off extra energy, mark their territory, and shed the outer layers of their nails. A scratching post or climbing tower can give your cat some much needed exercise. Giving your cat the chance to play will make him happier and less likely to trouble you with bad behavior. Sprinkle catnip on new toys to get your cat's interest. You may find that your cat is instantly motivated and playful, which will increase his activity levels. Take care not to use catnip constantly, or your cat may become desensitized to its effects. Some cats aren't interested or sensitive to catnip, so you may just need to offer a variety of toys instead. Take a few toys outside and try to engage your cat while playing in the yard. You may find that your cat is interested in exploring his surroundings. Or, if your cat is up to it, you may put him on a leash and take him for a walk around the neighborhood. Make sure the harness fits comfortably and he can't slip out of it. If you're cat is only an inside cat, consider letting him use an outdoor enclosure. This will let him experience the outdoors in a contained space.

Summary: Play with your cat. Let your cat play with puzzle toys. Get your cat a scratching post. Use catnip to get your cat moving. Let your cat outside.

You should never attempt to pick up a venomous snake under any circumstance. If, however, you're absolutely certain that a snake is not venomous, it may be safe to catch the snake by hand. Never attempt to handle any snake you cannot identify with 100 percent certainty. If you're intent on picking up a snake that you've confirmed is not venomous, you should wear a thick pair of gloves (sturdy garden gloves may suffice). Just because the snake's bite will not kill you doesn't mean you should chance getting a painful bite. Even a non-venomous snake's bite can be dangerous. All snakes have bacteria in their mouths which, if you are bitten, could penetrate the skin and lead to an infection. As you approach the snake, you should distract it to ensure that it will not turn and strike you. Try to distract the snake away from your reaching hand with a long, sturdy object, like a long tree branch, a wooden yard stick, or a household fire poker. Keep the tool low to the ground and near the snake's head. This should distract the snake, as it will think the object is a potential threat. Using your other hand (which, again, should be gloved), grab the snake's tail and lift it quickly. You should keep the majority of the snake's body flat on the ground until your grip is secure. Then you can use the long tool to lift the front part of the snake's body. Alternately, you can drop an old shirt, towel, or thin blanket over the snake, scoop it up in the fabric, and gently drop the whole bundle into a pillowcase. You can then relocate the snake to a safe outdoor area away from people. This method is more dangerous, though, since you cannot see where the snake's head is, and it may bite you through the fabric. If using a pillowcase, gently shake the pillowcase by the opening to ensure the snake is at the very bottom. If you must set the snake down, be sure you either twist the opening or flip it over on top of the rest of the pillowcase so that the snake cannot easily escape.
Summary: Ensure it's not venomous. Wear thick gloves. Distract the snake. Pick up the snake.
