I have a parkeet who is yellow and her name is sunshine. She is just starting to talk, and loves to say I love you she will get right up in your face and kiss you when she does it!
Do your parakeets talk?

I'm not sure if I mis-heard my vet but I think she told me heartworm medication helps get rid of other worms that could develop. Is this true?

I like silly pet names and I really adore the name HodgePodge. Can you suggest any other off the wall names?

*** Just FYI: I don't have a dog just yet and haven't yet settled on a particular breed. But I probably will by January. ***

She use to ralph almost every day, after trying differant foods I've found that w/ SCIENCE DEIT she only looses it about 3 or 4 times a week. I know she's old and will be lucky to last another 2 months.... but I've thought that for the last 3 years!
I can't afford a vet or meds.
She seems to still be in good health- jumps from the bed to the window cill(about 3-1/2 ft.) w/ no problem, hears a bird fly past an open door and will watch a fly from 20 ft. away.... she just can't keep her food down at times.
She has went from 11 lbs to 7 lbs in the last 2 or so years. Any words of wisdom?

my kitten is litter trained and he likes to go outside when I am at work but, the minute he comes in the house he runs straight over to the litter pan and uses it. I hate litter pans however, I hate messes more and I would love to do away with the pan all together. I don't want to have to worry about having a mess to clean up if I do away with it.

I did not notice this lump yesterday.. It seems to have grown to the size of a walnut in 2-days.
Any one out there who know a lot about Rabbits? I had no luck on the internet. It is a hard lump inside the skin, like a tumor, alongside his neck. I have been injecting his antibiotic since Monday. Does that affect a tumor to grow? He has been having a viral or bacterial infection going on for about 3-weeks now. Doctor told me the pills aren't as good as injectible antibiotic so we're doing that now. More direct and less dilution by the kidneys and liver.
I'm pretty upset so if anyone knows rabbits, has a rabbitry or similar experience, I sure would like to hear from you.
Thanks a lot.

My female rat Thelma had 5 babies on thursday night, and i need some information. I used to have rats when i was a kid, but i don't remember much. My main problem is the cage i have Thelma and her new family in is too small, i have a larger cage to move her to. What i want to know is when is it safe to move her and the babies to her new cage? And is it ok to clean her cage? How old do the babies have to be befor i take them away from Thelma? I know most of the basics, such as when she'll wean them, when they'll open there eyes and when they'll start getting fur and eating on there own. She's a really good mom, so i'm not worried about that. Thanks!!!

I have two yorkie terriers that were crate trained with wee wee pads, they were doing good for a while, and now it seems whenever they have some playtime outside of the confined area they poo all over the place. They go on the pads as well, but they just dont get the fact that its the ONLY place they go. I watch them carefully when they are out, and catch them in the act and tell them a stern NO AND BRING them to the pad. Seems its a way of acting out or something? Now they are confined in the kitchen with a baby gate up most of the time and i hate it! I wish they could just learn its the "only place to go" One is 6 months, and the other is 8 months. (both 6lbs) please help! I have a baby that will be crawling in the next 2 months or so and i need to change things. ive tried the sprays the crate the 3 times a day feeding, running out of options.

My elderly Dog is on a lot of medication for a heart condition. last week when he had his cheek-up with the vet, I told her of the problems that I am having getting his medication into him. Most of the tablets I could give wrapped in corned beef, but one has to be on an empty stomach. she told me of (and sold me) a new product that has a very low absorbtion, it has been produced to assist Dog owners give medication to their Dogs. you just mould the treat around the pill. Its called Vivi Treat and made by Intervet UK Ltd.My Dog loves them and would eat only them if I allowed him to. I don't know if this is availble world wide but its certenly worth a try if you like me have problem giving medication to your Dog. I do hope they bring a Cat version out soon.

Ok, so I inherited a snake from my uncle. I believe it is a Burmese Python. It is VERY large. I'm finding the food to be more expensive then I want to pay for, given my limited income. So here is my quesiton, I can get puppies and smaller dogs from the pound for free,
how many should I get, and do certain breeds taste better? Would kittens be a viable alternative? Thanks a bunch and my python thanks you as well!
