Tips for Preparing Your Home for Scare Clowns

Say hello to Mr P, a funkopop lineage scare bred to of course look like the latest cinematic version of Stephen King's infamous character, Pennywise. I don't normally choose to support funkopop due to their over breeding of scares and low support for keepers. I've seen plenty of first time clown keeper's have a lot of trouble with these tough critters and it always ends in tears.

To help deter the recent trend of irresponsible people dumping their semi-aquatic scare clowns in local sewers, I've written this blog as a basic care guide for this fierce but adorable breed.

Are Scare Clowns Good Pets?

I hate to say it, but the short answer is a firm no. While there are breeders capable of producing lineages of docile clowns with scare looks, it's debatable among scare enthusiasts if this practice produces a true member of the breed or if it's even humane. Scares of purer breeding are for all practical purposes a wild animal.

Generally speaking, they don't want your atte tion, they don't want snacks, and they most certainly don't want cuddles. While individuals will of course vary, most scare clowns are highly territorial, completey solitary, and primarily they want to hunt and to terrify. It's just what they do and their raw personalities and high intelligence are what make them so appealing to their die hard fans (like me! 🤡💖).

So if you're looking for a companion or a funny friend, think twice before choosing a spooky clown. Except in very rare cases, you will end up heartbroken and possibly faces high fees for endangering the local wildlife and your neighbors.

Can Scare Clowns be Kept in an Urban or Suburban Setting?

If you ask a scare clown, they'll probably tell you, yes certainly yes. This is because they are hardwired to scare-- hence the breed name! They actually want to be in denser populated areas so they can terrify unsuspecting people and stalk stray ankmald easier. And that should answer the question enough for any sane person: no, scare clowns should be kept far from densely populated areas.

Ideally scare clowns do best in a large piece of land where they can lurk, frolic, and feed off of small wild animals such as rabbits, squirrels, and mice. Five or more acres of partially wooded land is ideal for containing a scare clown and also ensuring the land won't be depleted by their needs. Any smaller a space and you can expect to need to supplement their diet with store bought meat, else keep a very close eye on the dog!

I personally keep a group of scare clowns on a much smaller space, but it's lightly populated and densely wooded. It's a delicate balance, but as an experienced scare clown keeper I can just manage it. I don't recommend doing so for new keepers as you'll cause undue stress to yourself and your clowns.

Can Scare Clowns be Kept Indoors?

At this point it should be very clear that scares are not house clowns. However if you're like me and live in an area that is frequently dangerously cold, this may not be so clear a cut. It takes a lot of brave breeders and keepers to make sure that the population of scares out there are cared for and aren't left up to their own devices in the wild. What's more, keeping scares in a cold region keeps them at bay as its much easier for a young scare to escape and become invasive in a milder climate.

Keeping scares indoors during poor weather can actually help deter the worst of their nastier behavior. They won't ever be tame, but there comes a point in your relationship where they accept that you are just part of the environment and mean them no harm. This is when it gets really fun to keep scares as they will haughtily stalk by you while snooping around. They're a joy to watch even if the humor comes more from enjoying their sour moods than the lighthearted joy we expect from clowns.

Yes you can keep scares indoors, but consider it strictly a necessity. They should be free to come and go as they please, weather permitting. When stuck indoors, ensure they have their own space which is kept dark and quiet at all times. Avoid going into that space altogether. If you must go in, announce yourself gently and listen for them to find a hiding space before turning on the light and entering.

Lastly, be sure to pass by the spaces where they are at least once a day. Linger by areas where they like to lurk so they have ample time to jump scare you. While trapped indoors, they still need a lot of stimulation.

I hope that's cleared up a lot of questions anyone has had about potentially adopting a scare clown! They're a tough breed but they are clever, witty, and fun in their own very special way.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to comment, reblog, or ask!

getting a clown

i have been interested in clown husbandry for some years now, and would like to attempt to get a clown of my own. I will preface this, by stating that, yes, though I am a beginner, I have indeed done prior research beforehand. I am particularly interested in porcelain and glass clowns, particularly those of stained glass clowns. I have my on a good adoption center for clowns as a potential option but I want to get more experienced opinions on the matter for a beginner. I have a small dog, and not an insane amount of space for a clown, so it would be important to have something small, ideally. Thankyou in advance for any responses I get, I truly have the greatest respect for all you people here and the hard work you do educating others on clown species, new, mixed, care, stereotypes, suggestions, etcetera, I previously had an unconscious stereotyping of scare clowns and other similar clowns of the like due to their depictions in movies, though thankfully since learning more from clownblr I have been able to gain more insight and an open mind on the matter! Awaiting future responses, Niko. PS. (I may have gotten some clown species names wrong due to struggle remembering the specifics of names, my bad!)

Ive recently bought a scare clown from an adoption centre. Ive had two scare clowns before and neither of them acted like this one.

My first two did the usual hide around corners and jump out, move object to a different area and grab my hand when i reach for it. But this one is doesnt do any of that instead it just stares and looms behind me. It also doesnt do the 'gross wet' food noises but when i check its plate and water bowl theyre empty.

Ive asked around and people have said it might be mime cross, thoughts?

Ahhh! You definitely have a scare/mime cross! Especially with how quiet he seems like he might be. Scare clowns and mimes are very similar in color, appearance, and teeth so, you wouldn't be able to tell easily without paying attention to their behavior. We have a similar clown here in our care and he is a mime/scare mix and acts very similar to your own. He is trying to scare you in his own large, looming, silent way. They thrive off the anxiety they cause by standing at the end of a hallway or by looming behind you. Just be sure to check the food and water bowl often since they do eat quietly.

This is also great if you are looking for a scare clown without the notorious bad temperament. The mime genes tend to make their temper easier to handle. Good luck to you and your scary friends! -Clownery Ranch

Soon, these teacup clowns will be out of my house! Hooray!

I've asked my nephew if he could help (he is a computer engineer and he helped me before when I had bunnies destroying my petunias). He said he will take care of the catching and adopting process. Once this is done, I'll finally be free! I will let you all know as soon as these little monsters are out of my home.

I'm back!

If you're wondering why I've been away for a while, in short, I've had my hands very full with a new clown I've adopted.

This is Mr Sarousch. He's a pierrot/scare clown mix. I adopted him from a friend of mine who was struggling to care for him. They originally had taken him in off the streets (he showed up in their house one day) but found that he was too much for them to cope with. Scare clowns and scare clown mixes are not suitable for everyone.

As you can see, he takes most of his physical appearance, such as facial markings and clothing choices, from his pierrot half, with a few outliers heralding from his scare clown half, such as the wild hair and mouth packed with sharp teeth. He does also engage in scare behaviours that lean towards the creepy subtype. From what I have witnessed so far, and from stories from his previous owner, he practices looming, mask scares, and haunting mimicry (making strange noises and moving objects around).

Don't let scare clown prejudice fool you though, this boy is very sweet natured and is eager for approval and affection from his owner! 🖤

Despite my best attempts to encourage him to play outside in my tent, he seems to take his preference for being indoors from his pierrot side. His favourite place to be is in my attic.

Mr Sarousch's favourite hobbies (so far) include:

Playing eerie tunes on my penny whistle (as can be seen in the image)

Listing to the Phantom Of The Opera original soundtrack on my vinyl setup (over and over and over)

Watching black and white french cinema on my attic room TV

Doing little dances in return for head pats

His diet is mostly meat due to his scare clown constitution, however his favourite treats are beef jerky and blueberries.

Questions regarding Scare Clowns

I've seen Scare Clowns described as menacing and with more potential for hostility than other types of clown, as well as an appearance that is intimidating or terrifying to humans. What I'm wondering is why? Are scare clowns ambush predators, or do they chase their prey down? Are they not predators at all, and using their appearance to frighten off potential attackers? Are they actually ancient hunters of humans, which is why their appearance can be so unsettling to us? Or is it just bad press? Are they generally friendlier than most imagine? I'm no expert on clown subgroups, but I'm curious to know more, and it seems like opinions are divided.

Introduction!

Hi all! Our shelter isn’t very established yet and we’re new to this side of tumblr, but we’ve been at clown husbandry for a while and feel prepared to take on the challenge of running our own rehabilitation center! We’ve gone to great lengths to ensure our shelter is suitable for dozens of different breeds, has lots of open space for the clowns to run around in, has proper enrichment and food, etc.

I’m mod Dorian. I’ve been a hobbyist for almost my whole life - my family used to foster shelter clowns, and even adopted some - but began taking clown husbandry more seriously about five years ago. I specialize in miniature porcelain scare clowns, but have taken a recent interest in the rescue of meat clowns, and in addition to my lovely miniatures I’m currently caring for some meat clowns at the shelter!

I don’t think I’ll ever be a total expert, but I know a lot and I’m happy to answer any questions you may have. My coworker (and co-owner!) will introduce themself below!

To illustrate this post by @mayahawkse I would like to visualize to you the difference:

A post in 2023:

A post in 2014:

A zoom out of the same post:

This is what a community looks like.

See how in 2023 almost all of the reblogs come from the OP, from their few hours/days in the tag search. Meanwhile in 2014 the % of reblogs from OP is insignificant, because most of the reblogs come from the reblogs within the fandom, within the micro-communities formed there. You didn't need to rely on tags, or search, or being featured. Because the community took care of you, made sure to pass the work between themselves and onto their blog and exposed their followers to it. It kept works alive for years.

It's not JUST the reblog/like ratio that causing this issue, it's the type of interaction people have. They're content with scrolling and liking the search engine, instead of actually having a reblogging relationship with other blogs in their community.

Anyways, if you want to see more content you like, the only true way to make it happen is to reblog it. Likes do not forward content in no way but making OP feel nice. Reblogs on the other hand make content eternal. They make it relevant, they make it exist outside of a fickle tumblr search that hardly works on the best of days.

If you want more of something, reblog it.

#i said i wont ever rant about this bc it's unseemly but HONESTLY. #you simply cannot complain about not having enough of A or B or C and then never reblog / interact with the content you love. #If you LOVE something you cannot just leave a like and silently wait for more to happen #I know countless of content creators that simply stopped doing art/writing fic/making edits #You need to understand that fandom content is made FOR the fandom FOR the engagement FOR the entertainment and fun it makes. #If a content creator does not have fun IN the fandom-- why would they spend the scares free time they have on making this content? #And we're not talking about things that you don't like-- no one expects you to reblog things you don't like. #However I think it's safe to say that when a post has more than 5k it's not some random shitpost with no value. #tumblr issues #tumblr #content creators #buns.txt #something something please don't starve your local clowns

i think, if they were real, they would hang out while waiting for the mortals in the time loop to reset. and they'd be buddies.

Finally! Get these clowns out of here

My nephew finally caught those pesky teacup clowns! He said he'll try to find them a nice home. He told me to share a link to his adoption network, which he made himself. He's such a smart boy. I'm lucky to have a computer engineer as my nephew. Anyway, here is the link he told me to share if anyone wants to finally take care of these little clowns.

I wish you the best of luck with them, to whoever adopts them ♥️

More drawings??? He's a Scare Clown in his natural creature form. Don't let those sharp teeth and horns fool you! He's loyal and loving, he just loves a good fright! He's a very protective little clown, a bit territorial of his handlers and his home- watch out for clownery and traps, jump scares, and a bit of screeching from the deep of his dark tent! They aren't meant for you- it's his form of play and safety!

(I'm practicing and playing around with clown ideas and drawing rn, please excuse me hehe)

Strange courtship gifts

The last thing anyone would expect is for the Joker to believe in the supernatural, but apparently Gotham was in luck, because the clown was about to make a deal with the King of all ghosts to revive his prized foe.

Said King was not happy about the request, nor did he care about the clown's feelings, but he knew it was a necessary evil. Or at least, that's what Clockwork told him; of course, Danny didn't intend to do anything for free.

The Joker got his wish, Bruce came back from the dead and Danny wondered what he should do with the clown's soul. With a shrug he decided to put it to the best possible use and wrapped it in a little bow before handing it over to Jason Todd.

Jason thought it was a joke, a cute guy giving him a gift out of nowhere and claiming that the frozen ball in his hand was the Joker's soul? Yeah, right.

However, John Constantine came through Gotham and it became obvious that it wasn't a joke and that the cute guy was more than just a regular guy. It also came with the feature that Bruce returned to the living, which made him strangely relieved.

And fuck, reckless or not, Jason needed to find the guy again and steal the air out of his lungs, because that weird ball was the best gift he'd ever been given in his life and it might as well be an engagement ring.

#dpxdc #ghost king danny #The Joker makes a deal with Danny #Danny knows he should accept but he really hates clowns #so he asked for what he would never ask for #his soul #the Joker accepted because he didn't care very much #he just wanted Batman alive #Bruce came back from the dead and scared his family #Danny ended up with the Joker's soul #but obviously he didn't want it #so he gave it to someone who wanted it #that is to say the cute halfa with anger problems that was killed by the clown #dp x dc #dc x dp #deadonmain #Jason believes that giving him the soul of his greatest enemy is a strange form of courtship #but he will accept the proposal anyway
