Hi. I'm in Okinawa, and just found my first gecko in the house. I don't want the little guy to dehydrate or starve. Maybe he will be okay by himself, but what can I do? I put out a shallow water dish. But on the food...short of letting lose insects on my floor (don't want to do that!), are there any options? I do have cockroaches and the like, but I am concerned that he may need more. I hope I don't sound obsessed -- I just like geckos and want to help the little guy if I can. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

I am looking into purchasing a bearded dragon, and am having cricket issues. It seems too expensive, and inconvenient to buy them daily from the pet store, but I am not all that thrilled about buying them in bulk either. Will the lizard be happy with a varied diet including the canned commercial dragon food with crickets offered only once or twice a week?
If No, what is the best way to deal with the cricket issue?

Thanks.

I know ALL dogs probably do not do this, but I have observed my German Shepherd do this and now that we just got a 12 week old Maltese I have noticed her do it too. And there is a difference because the German Shepherd goes outside and we have a pad that the puppy goes on inside the house. I was just curious as to why they wipe their back paws.

Thanks firstly for the advice I received on a similar question.

I have some more things i'm a bit concerned about though. I went to the pet shop where I bought my two fantails from (on the 13th) and took in a sample of water from the tank. The ph level was 6.6 which was ok apparently, but the nitrate (toxic) test and the ammonia test were at dangerous levels.

I've had regular goldfish before, without having a filter and i never had problems like i'm having with these guys.

They are both still sitting for hours at a time on the bottom of the tank, the boy has now developed fin rot, (i bought a bottle of treatment for this this morning) but i'm concerned about them dying on me.

The girl at the shop said to use the treatment for daily for 7 days and do a 20% water change after this then if he hasn't improved continue with the treatment for a further 7 days.

I know barking is a matter of training, home environment, etc. but I want to start with a dog breed that is less likely to bark than the others. Who's the most peaceful, relaxed, NON-BARKING dog breed you know? :) Thank you.

I am about to re-home two kittens from a litter of 3. They are going together and the last one is to be homed elsewhere. I am really anxious about taking them away from mum - they will be10 weeks old. ALthough she does nurse them on the odd occasion, the only interaction is when she watches them play and plays with them and when they have a rare cuddle with her.

Should she actually see them leave the house? Is that the best way? Or should I not worry about her being here when the family turn up to collect their new pets? I want it to as least traumatic as possible - please help - it;s bad enough coping with 3 kids being upset that the kittens are going let alone worrying about the mother cat!
thanks

she is a 15 week old weimaraner and she cries like mad when we leave her. we have tried leaving the radio on, toys are easily accessable, we leave some treats for her on the kitchen floor and we've even left a ticking clock underneath her bedding. its starting to annoy our neighbour which is subsequently affecting my girlfriend now. is it just a matter of time before our dog gets used to being on her own or are there any "tricks of the trade" that we could try. I have patience so i don't mind what to try, shame my neighbour hasnt any patience. thank you

Please someone help me before I go mentally insane...My partner & I got a kitten a year ago and i've always been strict about where it sleeps etc as i have very sensitive skin and i seem to constantly have flea bites (which are scarring me) even though my cat is treated for them. my partner is totally not respecting of this and although i have asked many a time for him not to let her sleep on the bed he still does and lies about it. i also can't stand its food on our plates which he still does even though i've bought the cat its own. agh! i am now 7 months pregnant and i just want to re-home the cat as it's making my life a misery worrying about it all the time and also about my baby. i just can't love this cat. have i developed some kind of pregnant woman protection instinct thing? please help... i cant even stroke it anymore and it's causing problems in my relationship.

Did you ever notice that if you blow in a dogs face it goes mad, yet when you take him on a car ride he sticks his head straight out the window?
