Pets - 6 September 2007

We have tried, of course, yelling DOWN as a command and both of us use it, but it sometimes works and sometimes not. We have to kennel her when we have company, as she knocks over kids and babies, and jumps on clothes.

Help!

My mollies have ick. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good product that clears ick that they have used (and it works!). I tried 1 "Jungle Ick Tablet" but it isn't really the best. Anyone?

get a pet scorpion and keep it in my dorm room, and emperor scorpion, in a tank about 5-10 gallon. I've see kids, with hamster, mice, rats and lizards. I have the space, and if need, to hide on short notice I have a trunk in my room, that I can place it in. I've thought about this for a while now, and I think this is the best fit for me.

We're are technically only allowed fish, but seen as to what other have.

1. Are mollies and cory cats compatibitle?

2. Do cory cats also require the "1 gallon per inch of fish" rule? I do not have any other bottom feeders besides 1 small snail.

3. About how much do cory cats cost?

You don't have to answer all my questions if you can't. Thank you in advance! ♥

I have a five week old kitten who was rescued from a very young boy who was going to keep her in his care. We commandeered the kitten. So now we have her and she has ringworm from her little nose to her little toes. Her belly hair has fallen out and she has bald spots on her back and sides. I am not posting this to get people to react in a sick way and tell me to put her to sleep etc, I am however posting this to ask those of you who are sane and have a good mind and heart about you to aid me in this journey to cure this little beauty of her ails. I have taken her to the vet and they have given her lime sulphur dip, medication shampoo, and glucofluvin(spelling). They did not however provide any answers as to how often I can bathe and how long to leave the shampoo on etc. I went to look up these products and most are toxic to kittens that young. I'm not asking for ideas from people I am asking for your experience and facts only please. All good people are welcome to answer. Tiahui !

I caught a brief few minutes of some highly entertaining dog racing one Saturday afternoon not too long back. It was a steeplechase race with Jack Russel Terriers. Anyone know where video of this can be found?

Our dog came from a shelter and that is what they fed him. Now trying to switch (mixing science diet with Iams) is upsetting his stomach. I was wondering if we should go back to science diet or hope he can get over this upset stomach and keep mixing the food until we have him totally on Iams? He is a 2-3 year old Chocolate Lab mix. Thank you

My new border collie/schnauzer mix won't stop splashing in his water bowl. Any ideas on why and how I can get him to stop? He is not hot because he will do it even after a long nap inside.

Please let me know what country you are referring to. You see, I 'd like to know, because in my country there is no pet insurance, and I have always thought it would be good to have it. Does it cover standard health cost, liek annual shots, or only accidents or illensses? For example for a cat.

So yesterday I was coming in late for a doctor's appointment and it was actually daylight on my one hour commute. About 5 miles from home, I saw three skinny horses grazing alongside the road by a bean field. One was "ribby," one was "thin" and one poor little buckskin was so emaciated that I doubt he will be alive in 30 days.

Others were going for the owners to get the horses contained, and I learned how to get to their home.

Hubby says to go drop a 6x round bale in their field and try to talk to them, but how does a person like me, who is, well...perhaps more passionate than diplomatic...approach someone about starving their horses? I realize they probably can't afford hay and feed...but dang it, I'll bet they're eating every night.

There just isn't a nice way to say, "What the #$%#$@ is wrong with you @#$%$ Q%E!$@ people, why the #$^#$ are you starving your horses?!!!"

Calling the overwhelmed Humane society in a huge rural area may not be the best solution.

She's female, but I like some boy-dog names so dont hold back! Nothing agressive though. Please tell my why you like that name if there is a reason?

Thankyou!

I mean the bull has no chance fighting a matador who has a sword and tortures the bull before killing it. And some people have pet bulls.
