Well...I got a Gold Tegu about 8 months ago, and the store where I worked told me to keep him on the ground Walnut Shells bedding. I listened to them because they've always given me good advice and know what they're talking about.
So about a month after getting him, I noticed his feet were starting to show signs of being "torn", or cut. I previously posted a question about this a few months ago and got some good answers. Once I noticed this, I took the bedding out and kept him on newspaper for about 2 months. In that time, I would pull him out every other day or so and put some triple antibiotic on his feet and also helped him with his shedding problems. The skin on his toes would NEVER shed on their own, so I had to do it for him. I got his feet looking better and decided to try putting him on the shell bedding again for a few days. Well, sure enough...after 3 days, he was back to the way he was. So I took him off that bedding for good. He's been living on newspaper since.

I bought a kitten today, and it had no worms in its poo, but it crawled up on my lap, and i noticed a white thing coming out of its bum (what else could it be but worms?) so now im freaking out. i dont want to hurt my unborn baby, AND i have a 3 yr old son. I called the vet, and she goes in at noon, but what are my chances of getting them or hurting my unborn child now? Im freaked out now.

The fish's growth quite a bit and the lump in the chin looks like it has a rock or something lodged in its throat but it still eats and stuff.

I changed the cages yesterday, and today they smell like pee. I thought that they might be peeing on eachother, but I have a rat in a cage alone, and she smells like pee too. I washed out the tanks and changed the houses and cleaned the bowls, so it not those things. Is it the bedding?

The stray (whom I know to be a male) who is usually shy began walking forward closer to the screen door to my cat. My cat began to meow louder than I've ever heard her meow, like she was being tortured! She has been fixed and has annual shots, but she seemed VERY scared of this other cat and backed away from the screen door while meowing. She still seems terrified even though I shut the door. The stray, however, is still sitting outside my door and WILL NOT MOVE. What should I do? Is the stray dangerous to me? Why did my cat have such a strong reaction? I know cats meow wildly when they are in heat, but obviously my cat isn't, so what's the deal? She's been around other cats before (I got her from the local humane society) but she was more upset than I've ever seen her before. Furthermore, what should I do to get the other cat to leave my door? Please HELP!!! I don't know what to do!

i think i should get a cavilier king charles spaniel, because they are dogs that can sit on your lap, and walk very elegantly. they are the perfect size.

BUT

they have a mind of their own, and have tendancy to bolt across streets. call me crazy, but i dont want to find my dog on the road in a puddle of blood.

you can see the size im going or, can you give me some tips about this breed or some other breed that has the same good qualities?

Sometimes when i see my cat, she has a small film under her eyes, and sometimes she "blinks" with them, is this something cats have, or is my cat just unique

and i ask this because i've never heard of a [domestic] cat with underlids

My cat isn't that big at all, but she is pregnant, and seems to be in labor.
Shes kneading a lot and shes meowing a lot too.
Shes also not eating or urinating.
Her breathing is more deep and she is pacing around the room.
She also has a wet discharge coming out.


Is she going to give birth soon?

We live in a rural area, outside of city limits, so the dog is not required to be on a leash/chain. That being said, she was running across the road when she was hit.

I have a 4 month old kitten and her litter STINKS!!! So far, I'm only cleaning it out once a day. Do I need to clean it out more often or is it the brand of litter? Right now I'm mixing 3 different kinds of litter (I bought one, but that didn't work, so I bought another and that didn't work so I bought another, but that didn't work either so I mixed them together). Please recomend litter brands that are cheap but effective!

My Betta, Monet, has Ich...Ive treated his water with Coppersafe, but it doesnt seem to be helping much.

What else can I do for him?
He's in a 2 gallon Hex tank, and I dont think I can break down his tank completely without putting him in my new tropical tank (that is empty right now) and infecting that tank and needing to break it down and start from scratch with it.

Ive heard of using aquarium salt, but I dont know how much to use or if it would be harmful to Monet. Any ideas?

OK,here is a video of Maggie,who was called "grossly obese" in response to another one of my questions about what breed she might have in her.I just took this video about 15 minutes ago,and it shows Maggie and my GSD,Lulu,running around and sniffing the ground where some creature had been.You can see her body type better,and the way she moves. Do you still think she's grossly obese,and also,any more opinions on what mix she might be? I think she gets along pretty well for an almost 11 - year - old dog of her size. Thanks!!
