Out of a rabbit, guinea pig or ferret? What is their life span? How much does the cage and everything cost? Can you show me the pictures of good ferret, guinea pig and rabbit cages? Which would you recommend. I own two guinea pigs so would a rabbit or a ferret get along with them more? How much does a rabbit or a ferret cost?

The litter of puppies are 6 weeks old & they were wormed 2 days ago. 2 of the puppies still have large stomachs & I think the worms have not passed through.Any ideas on what to do now?
I remember a vet once said give them something at time of worming like liquid paraffin.Can't be sure it was that though.

My young cat, Kenya, is currently nursing her second litter of kittens. She is a wonderful mom and rarely even leaves her kittens alone. However, it seems to be taking a toll on her. Nursing SEVEN kittens is draining her. She is not her usual happy self, and worse, she is SO skinny. She has always been an active, petite cat- but she looks so unhealthy. She has a constant supply of dry food, and I frequently feed her wet food as well. Do you have to take a cat to the vet to get her wormed? I'm not even sure if it's safe to worm her while nursing...if you have any advice, I'd greatly appreciate it!

He is a 3 1/2 month old Lab mix and I heard that Pedigree puppy food (kibble) is a really good food to feed your puppy for the first year.

I am thinking of buying the Tetra Aquaart 60l aquarium kit. I know this is for tropical fish, but if I didn't use the heater would it be ok for goldfish etc? Can you feed goldfish tropical fish food?

My 12 week old great dane pup got another set of shots today. He got one in his left shoulder and one in his right shoulder. When the doc was giving him the one in the left shoulder the pup jerked away and the needle came out and he had to stick it back in. Well I noticed a few hours after being home that the left shoulder where he got the shot is swollen. Theres a good sized little lump there, nothing crazy, but definatly noticable. Could it be that the needle hit the muscle and thats why he flinched or why its swollen? Any advice is appreciated. Thx

Spaying isn't an option so don't bother with that suggestion but other things such as herbal supplements, home remedies, anything....I'll try anything safe!

I have an 8 week old puppy that has fleas. I bought flea drops made for puppies and put some on her. Then I looked at the very bottom of the package and it said not to use on puppies younger than 12 weeks. Could this hurt her???

I think I am winning my war on mice but I recently discovered my specialty dog food has been raided. A mouse jumped out of the bag when the cupboard door was opened. I know they carry infectious diseases that can be passed to humans but are my dogs at risk? This is a rather pricey bag of food and I'm a little low on funds at the moment or else I wouldn't ask I would just toss it but until Friday will it be ok?

My dog's mother is a registered Toy Poodle but the father is a Yorkie-poo. Therefore, the dog is only 1/4 Yorkie. Is it still considered a Yorkie-poo?

So one of my guppies gave birth to her first batch of babies....Omg where there a lot...haha...anyways, I was wondering how long it would take for the babies to be able to swim with the adults without getting attacked/eaten. They were born only 3 days ago (almost 4). Thanks :]
