My mom has 3 tutles who we got when they were small and now they are growing to be big, they live in a fish tank right now, they're the kind that live in water. They are getting too big for the fish tank especially with 3 of them and my mom wants to let them go in a near by park thats filled with ducks and other turtles. But I was wondering could they survive out there if they're so use to getting fed their food everyday. Would they know what to do on their own?

I just got them and I have been told to feed them 3 crickets each once a day. But When doing research it says to feed them only every other day.

She has been to the vet once during her pregnancy but her last due date from her last breeding is tomorrow and she is having no signs of labor. Can anyone give some classic signs she is going to have her pups soon?

My kitten is almost 3 mos old. She doesn't want to eat solids. She was born in my house and her mama is still here but I have taken her away because I don't want her to keep nursing her. I have put different kinds of food for her in her dish. She will drink the water and loves to try to get human food scraps but that's about it. I'm terrified that she will starve. She just won't eat no matter how hard I try. Any ideas on how to get my baby girl to eat food? I have tried everything I can possibly can.

The nitrate level is okay, pH is acidic and alkaline is low. The ammonia meter says that ammonia is at a safe level. Any suggestions?

My boyfriend is not actually allergic to dogs, but he's said that some dogs have bothered him in the past. We want a dog really bad, preferably a larger dog, and I was wondering what the best hypoallergenic dogs are?

I had goldfish when i was really little and don't remember how to take care of them. The goldfish I use to have was about 2 inches long and I kept it in a little bowl and it lived for about 2 years. I want at least 3 goldfish and I have a 10 gallon tank with a heater and filter, what do I need to know about goldfish care?

I have read mixed information on the internet - some say that a male cat should be neutered before they start spraying, or they will continue the behavior even beyond being neutered. Others say that neutering takes care of a spraying problem even after it has already developed. And others say that if you neuter them after the spraying has developed, it's a 50-50 chance that it will stop the spraying. I'd like to hear responses from people who have first-hand knowledge or experience, if possible. Thanks!

I have a 2 1/2 year old female cat that is soooooo good. She is very loving, very quiet, never, ever meows. My 6 month old male kitten is the exact opposite. We took him a month ago to get fixed, when he started spraying. Initially, he was real calm, real easy. Now he jumps straight in the air, attacking the older cat. He races from one side of the house to the other. He is just wilder than he was before getting fixed. I thought when a male cat got fixed, it was supposed to calm them down. How long before he will? I will be putting a Christmas tree up about Thanksgiving time and REALLY don't want him climbing it. Also, how do I keep him off kitchen counters and the table? Popping him and squirt guns don't help at all. I know there is a spray to keep animals off furniture and all, but I can't use that where I keep food.

Well I had a blanket on me cause she was just going nuts and trying to bite me and when I looked there was blood on my blanket. I looked at her mouth and there was two holes were her teeth are suppose to be. Is that normal? Should I take her to a vet?
