I am sooooooooo annoyed I could scream, my dad won't let me have a rat. I've wanted a mouse or rat for 5 years now, and I have had no luck persuading my dad, my mam has even tries persueding him! It's so unfair. Please help me if you have any suggestions to persuade him otherwise. I can't talk to him because he won't listen then I end up crying, it would'nt be him who would care for it!
Thanx in advance,
Rachel (age 12)

Thanks a million.

I bought them at the same time. My two little Pomeranians, female 9 mo, male 8 mo were in the same cage at the pet store. I couldn't resist so I bought too. Growing up wasn't a problem. In the mornings, they'd kiss, in the afternoons, they'd play, and at night they'd fall asleep on one another. The passed two weeks, the female starts growling and attacking the boy. I have no idea why. He just wants to approach and be affectionate, however, she starts showing her teeth and trying to snap at him. I'm scared for him. Do I yell at her? Do I punish her? What to do? What may be the cause of this? Today, when it happend, I lightly patted her bottom, so she knows its not okay. I WOULD NEVER HIT MY DOGS!

I have two ferrets who try to "escape" by digging at the carpet by the doorway where I put a barrier. They are ripping up the carpet fibers and are very insistent about it. Please help!

To all the people who refuse to spay/neuter, or who think they're
"breeders" because they put fido and fifi together and produced a litter
of mongrels who will all likely end up in a barrel behind the shelter by
the time they reach sexual maturity: Die. Diediediediedie. I wish to god
that there was a mandatory spay/neuter law and that the penalty for
breaking it was to be forced to spend a day working in the euthanasia
room. Seriously. It's simple math, people. Every dog or cat you
carelessly add into this world takes away a home for a dog or cat that is
already here. So breeding means killing...so have a good day,
executioners! I hope the 50 bucks you made off that puppy sure feels
good.

Okay I pick up after mine, but there's people that don't! Everyone with a pet got a warning, which said if we don't pick up we would get a fine. Now the maintenance workers don't know who took which crap, so they're probably just going to report back to the office that no one is doing it. Should I go to the office and snitch?!?!

Thanks to everyone who answered my previous question. My next question is when should we treat all the stable tools and the stable? We treated all the grooming tools and his rug when we washed him. We have put away all but a few brushes until this has cleared up, but do we need to retreate his rug and the brushes we are still using each time we treat the horse?

I get ticklish when someone keeps poking me all over, like my stomach, armpits, shoulders, thighs, etc. I also get ticklish under my armpits on the upper inner part of my thigh, etc. Well how come my dog does not get ticklish when poke her or tickle her in those areas of her body. I've tried poking her and tickling her everywhere and she doesn't seem to really get ticklish. Or is it the fact that dog's can't really express a laugh or show of humor really? The thing is my dog goesn't really react at all. She just kinda sits there. The only thing she really seems to like is getting petted on the stomach otherwise she doesn't show any reaction to anything else. So I am assuming animals don't get ticklish. If you walked up to a lion and tickled him under his armpits, he wouldn't crack up in laughter, I'm assuming.
