Pets - 18 July 2007

I noticed my female guppy beginning to look pregnant last week, but I don't know when the actual fertilization began, so I don't know exactly how far along in pregnancy she is. I don't want to move her from the tank too soon, so she doesn't have to be seperated and stressed out longer then she needs to be. Any tips on when I should put her into the breeding box? Thanks so much for your time and energy, I really appreciate it.

What would be a good species for a first time lizard owner? I am looking for something cheap and low maintenance. Also, if possible, something that is a herbivore so I dont have to buy crickets all the time. Thanks for your help!

I had two cats that were very attached. One day Oliver ran away and Casper hasn't been the same since so i am contemplating bringing a new companion into the house for her. I wanna know a safe way to bring a new cat into the home and how to get Casper used to them in a safe way so she doesn't get all territorial and hurt the little kitty.

I have lived at 2 apts with a no pets policy, but several neighbors still had them. I know there is a hefty fine, but isn't the risk of getting caught very small?

They are sisters (Dusty and Buttons). Buttons ran away for about 3 months!!! but she is back! she came back today! (Happiest day of my life!!!!) but now they are hissing and avoiding each other. They used to be best friends! They are 3 years old.


Thanks!

I have had to take my cat to the vet numerous times due to it being attacked by another cat. My ex went two doors down where the cat lives and talked to an older couple who own it. They said their cat never has a scratch on it and they cannot afford to pay my vet bills. They said they would keep their cat in but they dont and now the cat that use to be indoors is outside too. Today I was calling my cat to come home and as he was crossing the road the old man started yelling at him and hitting his hands at him. It scared my cat and made him run back into the road and in front of a truck. My cat wasnt even near this mans yard. What can I do? I cannot afford to keep paying vet bills for this. This mans cat is always coming over to where we live. There are a few other cats in the neighborhood that play with my cat without any problems. I'm scared that if I call animal control he might do something to my cat. What are the laws in NC for this???

Hi there!

I just adopted two baby male rats and I am very excited about it! I have never owned rats before and I was wondering what the best way to raise them is. I want to make sure they grow to love me and that they are very happy and healthy.

Thank you =)

Okay so about an hour ago, I go look at my fish tank and my molly, who I believe is female, had a long red strand hanging from her back end. I just figured she was pooping but an hour later and its still attached, what is going on? How can you tell if they are pregnant?

My neighbor's dog cries a lot, and I usually don't think anything of it. Well, she was just crying, and I heard my neighbor come out, yell at her, then I heard her hit it. Hard too... almost like she whipped it w/something. Can I do anything? Like call animal control or something?

HOWEVER! my tank scale is a like 82. Everytime I turn my heater to 75, It shuts off. Is it ALWAYS going to be like this just because of the water or will it adjust and work anyway? OR do I need a new heater

Sometimes the goldfishes are very active, swimming around and stuff. Sometimes they are inactively, just floating in a corner. Does being active or inactive have anything to do with their level of hunger?

I have heard this " if you have a betta you'll need to be a silk plant because plants provided in starter kits are plastic and can tear betta fins." But will the plastic ones hurt them bad or has any of your got hurt by them(if you have one)and also is a one gallon tank good for them? And is it better to have real plants for your betta or are plastic just fine?

I have a kitten that was the runt of the litter. The woman that gave her to me gave her when she had just turned 8 weeks and she said that she had to be with her mommy a little while longer than the other kittens. She gave away improperly weaned kittens!!! Anyhow, my little cutie is 4 months now and still very small. Do runts stay small or will she eventually have a growth spurt?
