one lone dog. I can't keep anything in the house, but I really enjoy them when I'm looking out back or smoking out there or something.

i have been keeping not one but a few gerbils all these years..
everytime my gerbils die.. i bought myself another..and the same thing happen again.. i have tried sending its to a vet.. yet they can't explained to me why. they simply ask me to change their bedding and that's all.. but it just doesn't work!
i even give them a clean enviroment and change their bedding very often too.

He has always done this relentlessly. Is this a Maltese trait?

I have a 5 month old JAck ruseel and he has a green discharge coming from his bits n bobs! i've taken him to the vet who siad it's probably hormonal most dogs have discharge and if you give them the chop that reduces it! he is too young for the chop atm but am considering it! the vet said its nothing to worry baout but did give me anti biotics probably more more my reassurance than his helath! as its been almost two weeks since the tablets and he still has disacharge! I'm not sure if it is infected, or if its where he is a small dog and he's getting caught on the grass that maybe giving if the green colour or if it is 'normal' like the vet says? wat do you think? Thanks

Yesterday I noticed my rabbit cheek is very swollen....at least I think it is. It's about twice the size as the other one. I don't think he has a problem with his teeth, they are still short. His cheek is pretty hard, it's about the same hardness as the other cheek. Is he ok? Is it normal? Will it go away or should I go to the vet? I couldn't find anything on the internet so I was wondering if someone could tell me anything or where to look? Any vets or rabbit owners out there who can help?

As a kitten he used Tidy Cat litter. When he was 6 months old he was de-clawed and was switched to Mews News pellets. He turned a year old this month (June). About two weeks ago he started putting his bowel movements on the floor behind the toilet, or on the rug in the half-bath where his litter box is. Why is he doing this, and what can I do to get him to use his litter box again?

My kitten is about 7 months old and she is developing a lot of fat on her belly. She is still on dry kitten food. I always leave a bowl of kitten food out for my cats so they can help themselves. My older cats also get servings of wet food. None of my older cats have as much fat as her. I adoted her mother and she has no stomach fat so it isn't just the type of cat that she is. I am really concerned for her. I can't feed her separately from all my other cats, i have 6 and that would be near impossible. What can be causing her to gain wieght? Could it be because she was spayed at such a young age? I don't know i need advice on what should be done and what could be causing it. I mean the fat is noticable when she walks. I have no expierence with overwieght cats. Should i take her to the vet or am i just over reacting?

This morning I got up to find all my malawi's on the surface of the water, looking like they are gasping for breath!! I quickly took the filter out and gave it a good clean as i found it was filthy but i only cleaned it 3 weeks ago, its a fairly new fluval 4, in a 180litre tank. In the mean time I put an air pump in the tank to put some oxygen in the tank whilst i cleaned the filter, After I cleaned the filter and put it back in the tank, all the fish started to behave normally, but im still worried as they didnt eat their food!! I only did a 20% water change yesterday and tested the water and all was fine. Do you think that it was just the filter?

For those who helped me while my cat was pregnant, I want to thank you and let everyone know that on May 26th she gave birth to 6 beautiful kittens, 2 boys 4 girls. The birthing went well for the first 4 but there was a 2 hour delay for the last 2, the 5th one was born not breathing and because of all your answers you helped me save this kittys life, number 6 was fine. Now I need help with a name for the kitten I'm going to keep, yes I'm keeping the 5th one. She is a calico and I thought of the name Callie but that is so common for a calico, I want something unique, So if you have any ideas please feel free to help.

I know this probably seems like a strange question, but I really need help. He's been sneezing - making little exhalations through his nose - once every few minutes or so. This has been going on for a few hours. I already tried to blow his nose for him, but it did nothing. 'm starting to get really concerned. Should I call the vet? Please advise. Thanks in advance.

I have looked at numerous websites but I can not identify my new pet rabbit. My friend could no longer care for her rabbit and gave her to me. She had no idea what breed it is. The rabbit is almost solid black, she has a few spots of white and one blotch of red. Her nose, also, is white. She has a tuft of fur on her chest and it really protrudes. She is very calm, and really large. I have yet to name her, so I will refer to her as Bunny. Bunny resembles a Beveren, so I'm wondering if that could be her? She is really heavy, compared to our other rabbit which is a harlequin. She has a really long sort of face, and is really chubby (she's not a hare). Bunny has rollback fur and its really soft and kind of long. So thats how I can describe her- protruding fur tuft on chest, black, heavy, large, rollback fur. Help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
