Pets - 16 June 2007

I have a small tank & add the start zyme & the amonia eliminator as recomended by the fish shop but had a number of fish die. I have now cleaned the tank & filled it with boiled water. I am worried that my fish may die again after 3 weeks.
I was changing the water regularly 1 per week & used the sand pump to pick up the dirt. Only changed max 75% of the water as advised. Can anyone suggest a good guide for setting up a tank with pictures of the variety of fish I can start with.

I was reading the ingredients list of a bag of Hill's Science Diet at the vet yesterday, and i don't understand. If corn is so hard for dogs to digest why is "ground whole grain corn" the second ingredient? Why is "Gluton Corn Meal" on there? Where are they getting "Animal Fat", why is it not more specific?
I am trying to find out why vets are carrying this food. It is nothing but fillers in the top ingredients right after chicken. So many dogs have allergies to wheat and soy, that is what is causing a lot of the skin irritations. It also stresses the digestive tract and lowers the immunity.
The only thing i can think of is that it helps keep dogs needing veterinary care.
Poor dogs.

The package on the finger brush says every day- I was thinking I would try to do it twice a week. Anyone else have an older dog who brushed more or less often and the results? Opinions?

I have a Blue Ridge saddle. It has stirrups and a brand new leather girth. It is a english saddle (I think it's an all purpose or Jumpers) It is real leather and it's in pretty good shape. Not that old either and it's used.

I also have a Tango Saddlepad. They real brand is Tolkat but the designers line in Tango (by Tolkat). It is burgendy and only used 4-5 times. It is ment for a average horse but I use it on my caspianXfell pony (It's way too big).

Well any help on pricing these would be great! I want to get a picture up but I don't know when I can. Thanks!

My cat is sick once again, she is in pain, and unfortunately I cannot afford a vet bill of $800.oo dollars again. Should I try and wait out what ever is wrong with her, or go to the emergency vet and have her put down. I am just so upset, I don't like to see any animal in distress.

Please help. I bought 2 female guinea's 7 weeks ago, both aged 7 weeks & one of them (Nibbles) has started getting rather plump, i was holding her & felt a few movements so i took her to the vet & she is defo pregnant. The vet said she is quite advanced & must have got pregnant at about 5 weeks old. Poor little thing.
Im so scared something is gonna happen to her when she gives birth & want some advice from any guinea pig owners - as i said i have only had them 7 weeks so i am new to this. I have researched loads on the internet & think its probably best if i seperate her from her sister (Geri) until i know they will all get along together - do you think this is the right thing to do or should i leave them all together? I am planning on building a cage some time this week so i would love it if they could all live together. Thanks for your help.
