# I repotted this guy a couple weeks ago hoping it would grow a bit…

I repotted this guy a couple weeks ago hoping it would grow a bit more. I woke up the other morning and I think my cat  
must have snapped some of him in half :/ I tried to propagate the top half that fell off, is that even possible? Is this just a lost cause or is there something I can do to help it keep growing?

Maybe stick the broken off part into some soil and let it grow roots? It works for me—for some reason, my succulents take to this whether they’re “official” cuttings or “accidental” ones, if you get what I mean… 😎

For sure. Just stick the broken part into the soil. Done.
