Pets - 17 November 2007

It's getting near to dusk which is meant to be the right time to release hedgehogs back into the wild.

I was curious as to it's weight, which has come out at around 12 ounces or around 350g. I looked it up and this may be too low for it. What should I do?

My cat is 8 months old and weighs about three pounds. I am syringe feeding her at the advice of the vet after she hasn't eaten for almost five days. I'm using the Prescription Diet A/D, watered down just enough so I can pull it into the syringe.

But I'm not really sure the full amount she should be getting each day, how much her little tummy can hold in one feeding, and how frequently I should be feeding her.

She's not thrilled about the syringe, but she's accepting it pretty well, so I want to get as many calories in her as I can each day.

I flicked my cigarette once into a nearly empty cheese dip can because it was garbage and my cat ended up licking up a good portion of the cheese in the can.... will this harm her in any way?

But have been considering it for over a year now and can't decide what breed is good around a baby? I love greyhounds but not too sure as they are a little big. Any advise on breeds around babies?

I have an approximately 15 year old border collie mix. At her age every day is a gift. Except for deafness and arthritis, she has been very healthy. I just discovered a hard lump, about the size of a quarter, on her chest. She's due for her an annual vet visit in 5 weeks. Should I make it sooner? How much more worried should I be.

my fiance had two dogs, a ferret, fish, Hermit crabs & a hamster when he moved in with me. I already had a dog, 2 cats, and a bird. The bird has since passed away.
We live in a town house with a decent size yard. & two of our dogs are small ones.

Do you think we have too many pets? My mom hates it and tell me to get rid of most of them.

What do you think?

My iguana is constantly peeling, to the point where it looks uncomfortable for her. I am trying to find a lotion or baby oil that should be safe for her, but I can not find anything on the internet about it. Is there anything I could do, any suggestions or so forth? Any help would be welcomed.

i have a huskie and we all know how aggressive and protective they are. my gf might move in with me and i dont know how my dog will take it. my dog does know my gf becuase i let her hold the leash when i walk her sometimes, but when my gf comes over it takes like 30mins for me to calm missy down. most of the time i have to put her in my bed room and close the door(and yes she still barks when i do that). its weird because when i get her outside with my gf she acts fine its only when we are in the house. what can i do?

Although here in the south we are talking about 30-40 degrees nights, can I keep her outside during the day with 45-55 degree weather during the winter?

You see it all the time on here, 'help my dog is ruining my carpets, how can I find someone to take him?' 'Anyone want my dog, he's chewing my shoes', etc. I really wish people would really sit down and think about what it actually means to raise a puppy before they jump up and go grab the first cute little furball they see.
We're bringing home a puppy in a week and I've already been trying to mentally prepare myself. Yes, I'm nervous about how much work it's going to be - but I think that's good because I KNOW it's going to be a lot of work, somethings in my house are going to get ruined, I'm going to have a lot of training to do, I'm not going to get much sleep, etc. and I'm getting ready for it. I've decided to raise another dog and I've made the choice to be fully commited to him for his entire life - and anything that comes along with that.
I guess this is also going out to all those who are thinking about getting a puppy soon. Just some thoughts :)

My cat came on heat and I thought she was pregnant, but then she came on heat again about 8-10 days later. Is this normal? All my other cats became pregnant the first time so this has not occurred before. (Don't worry, I rehouse all the kittens to extremely good homes for those of you who think I am irresponsible!).
