Pets - 2 October 2006

I rescued a tiny TINY kitty today with a damaged paw. He's settling in really well - he's had kitty milk and kitty food, he's playing with a blanket and he's just started purring loudly. He's SO cute it's not funny! Actually I haven't checked if it's a boy or a girl, but it mews like a boy cat.
Any suggestions please? He's kind of grey and black and fluffy with the biggest little greeny grey eyes - looks just like a chocolate box kitty!

I have 2 new male "teddy bear" hamsters that I adopted from Petland over the weekend and they seem to have adapted to their new home quite nicely. I currently have both in a single cage, but that will be changing as I am aware syrian hamsters are very territorial and will fight. I also have a labrador retriever puppy at home who is in love with them and watches them play but doesnt know her own strength. To keep my hamsters safe while I am at work, I keep them locked up in my bedroom all day and play with them when I get home at night.

So heres my question, my bedroom is in the basement and I dont have windows. Can hamsters live in complete darkness? The only time they are in the light is when I am in my room with them. I dont want thier bodies to get all out of whack so do they need natural sunlight to survive? Also, because its a little colder in the basement, I put a towel under the cage and around the cage...any other suggestions? Thanks!!

He is a pit and he's not that much far from a puppy, he is a little big but still little. Like he's not eating, he's not drinking any water. He is usually playful and running around but now hes lazy and not doing nothing.
Does anyone know what this is and what I can use for him to stop acting so sick. Why is he not eating???

I found my dog about a year ago. After putting flyers up and not getting any responses for about 6 months, we decided to keep him. We think he may have ran away from a nearby kennel. This kennel does not treat their animals very well by the way.
Well the vet I have been taking him thought he was 2 years old. So this whole time I've been thinking he was 2. He acts like a young dog, very energetic. But then I took him to a new vet today and he thinks that my dog is at least nine years old!!! He said that he can tell from his teeth and his little gray patch near his mouth. Which do I believe? How can I tell?

We moved to a new place, and there are a lot of crickets outside. She hasn't ever wanted to go out before and now she does. Especially at night when she can hear the crickets, she will sit at the door and meow!

She isn't declawed, but she is spayed with shots.

My dog (maltese/poodle) is the greatest dog, but she has a problem when meeting other animals. She was in a house with a yorkie and a jack russel who would be "mean" to her so now she has a problem getting along with dogs. The yorkie would snap at her and attack her and the jack russel would jump on top of her so now when she sees other dogs she just barks uncontrollably! People think she is being mean, but she is just scared so she just keeps barking. How do I get her to get along with other dogs? I had her around one would was very calm and she just kept barking for like 10 minutes straight and I just kept telling her to calm down and I tried to go down to her level and hold her, but nothing worked. I want to eventually get another dog and I know she will eventually warm up to them, but any ideas?

He keeps jumping up when he isnt supposed to and keeps leaving hairs everywhere,and now he is a certain age he is starting to drool a bit.

Do you think a collar would help?

I have 2 mice. I think they are both female but I could be wrong. One is large and the other is tiny. I went away for a day and a half and I left food and water, but maybe I didn't leave enough. Anyway yesterday I noticed my small mouse has patches of fur missing and I was wondering if the larger one hurt the small one.Could the little one have pulled its own fur out? The larger one does pick on the small one from time to time,but they get along most of the time.Any ideas????
