My son has 2 pet mice. One of them has developed a large growth/tumor on its neck. I'm not sure if I should let nature take it's course or have it put to sleep. It doesn't seem to be in pain, it still runs in the wheel, eats and drinks normally. It would be nice to hear from someone with more mouse experience than I have.

We're considering breeding rabbits. We have one 6 month old male rabbit and want to get a female rabbit for it to mate with. If you have any suggestions, tips, or experiences they would be greatly appreciated.

My puppy sometimes drags his but on the floor as if he's trying to wipe it clean. My father-in-law says that it is because he has worms. Is that true?

I heard a meowing cat in a trash bag at the park- it was a voulenteer cleanup thing- in side was a kitten wrapped in plastic! It keeps crying and is so small, like the size of an adult's hand. i have no clue how or what to feed it. it looks like a russian blue. it is very skinny. I also have 3 dogs and a new puppy so i have to be careful. I also have a 14 year old black cat girl. Should i let her mother it? How should i take care of the kitten?

I have a 55 gallon freshwater tank, with a variety of cichlids. Recently developed a bacteria bloom at the same time I got the clams. Have been doing 50% water changes to control the bloom and ammonia, daily for the last days. Out of the 7 clams only one is cracked open and the rest have been dormant for a day and a half. How do will I know if they are still alive? Any help will be apreciated!

there is a baby blue jay right outside of my house sitting on the side of one of our plant pots. The parents are going crazy flying back and forth on our car and on the house, and chirping like crazy. I know there is something wrong with the bird because I looked at it and the tail feathers look hurt. So how can I help the baby blue jay and it's parents?

A woman up the street from me ran over my cat. We had to take him to the vet to be put down. I went over to her house to ask for $43 to cover the vet costs and she told me that she was so sorry for my loss, but "Your homeowners insurance will cover it." Then she told me she's run over other cats and killed them. How should I deal with her and get the money back?

When ever I try to pick him up for the night and take him up to my room he would always run to my brothers side. I try to get him back but he shows his teeth and growls. He had even bitten me a couple of times and his teeth are sharp. He's a yorkie-poo. And about 1. I just wish I knew where I went wrong when I was raising him. Sometimes he's mean and some time he's nice. Even though he's mean I still love him very much. And I flick him on the nose but that would work and sometimes it would just make him more mad. I don't want to put him asleep because he's a really sewwt dog and I love him way to much. I just want him to come to me and love me :( .

I have a Mali Uromastyx, it is a desert lizard found in Africa and parts of the middle east. Hes getting bigger now so I am moving him into a 55 gallon tank. I need new trees and rocks for him because hes also outgrowing the ones in his tank. I went to PetCo yesterday but they had like 6 things to choose from, and they were all too small. Where can I find a good variety to choose from. A store with alot to choose from, or an internet site I can order from, either will work. Thank you all. :)

I have two orphan kittens approx. 4 weeks old I have taken in. I took them to the vet today for a checkup and a deworming. I am curious as to what if any side effects there are in giving a kitten this type of dewormer? One kitten is doing fine and the other is not wanting to eat and will not stop crying! I called and talked to the emergency vet's office in town and they gave me a bit of a "don't care" attitude and was more worried about telling me how much the fees for bringing the kitten in instead of trying to help....

He was neglected, wild stray I adopted. He will challenge pit bulls and the dog training advice doesn't help. He is good with people and responds to reward training.

Well I heard that I need a UVB light for my Russian Tortoises, and at the pet store they said UVB lights provide calcium and D3 vitamins but at my pet store the light bulbs cost between, $45 - $85 and I cant afford to keep buying one every few months. Well I found a Vitimin formula thing at the pet store that I add to their food and it provides calcium and D3 vitamins. So can I just use this powder and dont need to get the UVB light bulb or is the UVB light a must have.

Out of all the family owned pets, horses, snakes, rodents, cats, dogs, birds, etc. Wouldn't it be something if they too were put to sleep for aggressive behavior? I mean, what happens when a parrot bites your finger and it is nearly taken off? Or when a rat nips your hand, and draws some blood? How about a boa or python that struggles to take down a domestic cat, dog, or even a child? A cat whom scratches at a child for pulling on it's tail? A horse whom trampled or kicked someone?

And then there are dogs, mans best friend, bred for loyalty, devotion, companionship, friendlyness, family guardians, and the love we've been searching for in human friendship, but cease to get, why are they so hurridly blamed for the ignorance of people, why should they suffer their owners stupidity? Why can't it be recognized?

i have 3/4 of an acre and no fence but we can get one if needed. any dog size is okay but not too big. a dog that only needs at least one or two walks a day. and is playful and good with children. we prefer a watch dog but it's okay if it's not a watch dog. and how much do dogs eat a day? a dog that will eat once or twice a day too. no muuts.
