I am curious to know what my mice are thinking when they continue to go around and round. And why they keep doing it? DO they think they are going somewhere?

Do shock collars for dogs work? I was just wondering are there any alteratives to shock collars. I have called a few personal trainers, and one suggested this to me (collar) I would really hate to use it, but we are getting ready to move to an apartment and my dog has separation aniety and barks when we are gone. He is a pit bull 9 months old and his name is Scrappy. If you have any alteratives then please let me know, you can also e-mail me, my e-mail is in my profile~ Thanks

Just happened to go to Walmart yesterday (not that I shop there) and I went by the fish aquariums and I was shoked at the conditions of the fish. There were so many fish that were dying. I have some koi at home and seeing how bad of a condition the koi were in I wish I could have bought them all to save them. They had scales missing, eyes sucked in, broken fins and pink lines in their fins from ammonia burn and they were just floating around half dead. Just another reason why I hate Walmart (fish cruelty)!

My cat has scratched up my brand new couch, and my walls, and my cabinets. Spanking him dosn't work he comes after you and if you hit him with a towel he'll get on his back legs like a bear and start walking toward you. How do I keep him from scratching and we can't get his claws taken out he is too old now

I work at the humane society as a volunteer, and recently they've begun a crackdown on ill cats. It's one of my jobs to report any possible symptoms of disease.
Well, there was a cage of 3 kittens, and two were sneezing. What's the right choice? I had two choices-not report the sneezing and risk all three of their lives or possibly save all three, or to report the sneezing and get the two kittens killed but definetly save the third.
What's the right choice? Why?

There are these little "gangster" black kids across my street and they always come over and pick on my dogs. (they think they are super bad but they're only like 10-14 yrs of age) They'll spit at my dogs and try to poke them with sticks! yesterday, I saw one of the kids jump on my fence and was taunting my dogs and then when I came out and I told them not to mess with my dogs, they just said "what are you going to do about it?" I don't know what to do because it seems that their parents don't even care. Is there something I could do to make them stop? It's getting to the point where I just want to break them!

I have two female mollies, a lyretail Creamsickle/Gold Dust (not really sure, she was sold as Creamsickle) molly that had babies about a month ago and a lyertail Dalmation molly. Are they both pregnant? Is just one going to have babies? And if so, how soon? Is it too late to put them in a breeding box? Should I watch them the whole day?
Also I have included pictures of my male Sailfin Dalmation molly. Lyretail Sailfin crosses are goreous! I had two babies that were gold dust out of a lyretail gold dust mama and a sailfin dalmation male and they were adorable! They were sadly eaten alive.

Anyway, I have another question, can my mollies have babies from both the store and my male in one birthing? Like she has lets say 30 fry and so can 13 be out of my male and the rest out of the stores? Or is it she has the store babies the first three months, and then has the babies with my male?

I have already asked about having a live plant in my fancy goldfish's tank, and I know that it is really good for the tank because it helps with the nitrates, etc. The problem is that my fish is eating it constantly. My little goldfish has managed to eat a whole fairly big size leaf in about 2 days. He munches on most of hte others as well. I believe the plant I have is called like elephant ear or banana leaf or something. I also feed him goldfish crumbles and I am worried that with his constant eating of the live plant and the food I give him, he will overeat. Should I get rid of the plant and give him a fake one or should I try a different kind. I thought that most goldfish don't like the kind I got, but if you have reccommendations...

First off, I've had my house rabbit for little over a year now and never had her spayed. She is fully intact and, for lack of a better term, horny. Last Monday I got another rabbit (male, about 8 weeks old and neutered) and over the past few days I've been slowly introducing them by scent. Last night I sat with them and allowed them to meet face-to-face. I was worried that my older girl might show some aggression, but instead she began to vigorously hump the baby...only to chase him down and hump him some more. He is so tiny that he disappeared under her and I dont want him to become afraid of her because of her very aggressive sexual advances.

Am I worried over nothing? Can someone with more rabbit experience please advise me on how to introduce them without the older girl humping the baby to death? I would have her spayed but can't for the next while, I just dont have the money...

Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi... I have a 4 and a half months old Siberian Husky. I'm feeding her Canidae foods. I thought of using Nature's Recipe food but it was not good for her and she was having diarrhea, so I went back to Canidae.
Actually I was pretty happy with Canidae, it was just that Nature's Recipe was easier to find.
Anyway, I was looking at other foods and I found Timberwolf Organics. I have never used that brand so I dont know how good is it. I read about it and it seems pretty good but I wanted your opinion about which one is better, Canidae or Timberwolf Organics?

I appreciate all your help... =)
