My boyfriend and I recently bought a dwarf hamster, and he went to go pick him up when he bit him, and his natural reaction was to move his hand back, but our hamster hit the floor. He's bleeding out of his anus, it was bad but it's lightening up, but it's been about 45 minutes-an hour and it hasn't stopped. However, he's still active as ever. Is that a good sign, should we take him to the vet, or should we be prepared for the worst?

I'm collecting information on where and when these anomalies occur. Nobody knows much about what causes Odd-Eye in rats so It helps to hear about ones with different coat colors and eye colors(red-black, ruby-black, ruby-pink, etc). Even age helps because sometimes a rat with red eyes will have one that turns black at the age of 7-8 weeks! I want to know all you remember, like for example an OE that has babies with no OE, but with High White markings that seem to have come from nowhere, (dark colors on the high portions of the body only, along the spine) tells me that the traits are indeed connected, like I thought. I'm adding everyone else's experiences to my own. So even if you don't know a lot about rats, thank you for you input!

There is this rabbit that I see every day. My mom says if I can capture it we can keep it.The proble is that the rabbit is scared of me, and it bites. It doesn't have a home because it is very skinny, and I can almost see it's bones. So what do I do?

I was riding my Tallassee today, an American SadleBred, and we had a good ride for a little while trotted some galloped a little. She ate a little grass alongside of the road. But all of a sudden she lowered her head like she wanted grass, then went down. It was like her legs just folded under her. Then she stood up looked groggy, and wouldn't move for a long time. Just stood there , Like in a daze. Then after a while, she acted fine. I called the man who takes care of them for us and he came out, and she seemed fine. Has anything like this ever happened to any of you? Do you know what it could be? I love my Tallassee, I hurt just thinking of her being sick. Could it be she ate something wrong?

I bought 2 sugar gliders about 2 weeks ago. They're not mean, but they're by no means tame, either. They were being kept by a guy who was going to have them breed, so he kept them separate from his pet gliders, and in much worse conditions. We realized their cage was very filthy after we left, and they're older than the "young" we were told. The boy is 2, and the girl is 1 1/2. We were told they were "semi tame" but that's totally not the case. I don't believe these gliders have been handled at all.

Anyway, they're pretty much unhandleable, and I can't even grab them to put them in a pouch. I've bought them all new accessories and have been feeding them much better, but they keep peeing on their food and their habitats. I know they normally do this, but is it instantaneous all the time? They're not mean, but they seem even terrified if I pet them.

I guess I'm looking for advice and tips on how to get these gliders to calm down!

Thanks

Hey everyone. I have been trying to convince my parents to get me this horse, Orion. I have bonded with this horse, and I am the only person this off the track Thoroughbred trusts. I have found a way to pay off board. Board covers hay, feed, shavings, stall, turnout, worming, blanketing, and booting. I have learned how to trim hooves correctly, so I will be able to do that myself. All I would have to pay for is the yearly dental exam and teeth floating, I buy and inject the vaccinations- I can do this- prior experience. My parents wouldn't have to pay anything except the initial purchase price of $1200. And don't think it is this low because he is a bad horse. He is amazingly skilled and well trained. He just has trust issues with people. Horses are my life and I think it is about time I got one of my own. How can I convince my parents to buy this horse? I have told them my plan, and how I will be able to afford everything and it only costs them a one time cost of $1200. Please help!!

Recently, I noticed a large, hard object growing underneath my female rat's front, left leg. She doesn't seem to mind it, and walks like any other rat, she's approaching her. She's a two year old, female, black & white hooded fancy rat, unspayed. Is this a tumor, or what? Do I need to remove it?

I put Frontline on all my pets now I need to know what is the safest way for me to kill the fleas in my house. I don't want to use anything toxic or with bad fumes because I'm pregnant. I had read somewhere that Borax laundry detergent on the carpet kills fleas - does anyone know if this or any other home remedies work? Or any non-toxic products I can buy?

I'd like a pet/s that will be affectionate and won't cost too much to keep. I don't like keeping animals in cages for long periods of time. I don;t have a garden.
