Keep finding my bedsheets stained with green little dots

Post image

i’ve been trying to find the answer for this for years. 1. I’m the only person who sleeps in this bed 2. I don’t eat or drink anything in my bedroom 3. I don’t have hair that is dyed or dyed green

I’ve also had these same exact splotches show up blue before too

Shit, this needs more attention fer real! OP don't expose your cat if it cuddles or sleeps with you or on your bed alone.

When I used minoxidil, I applied it before bed and wore a hair cap. I applied in the morning immediately before leaving work (wore a visor) and kept my minoxidil, brush for applying it in a cabinet and washed up well.

It’s possible to be very safe with it which I hope OP is doing.

Would it be bad form for me to interject here with a hairy cat joke?

Oh wow, good to know! I take oral minoxidil now, but I used to use topical and my cat LOVES to try to eat my hair. Yikes.
