In pet shops, i always see rabbit harnesses or leads for sale. It's cruel because rabbits like to hop free what do you think ?
DO NOT JUST PUT I AGREE OR DISAGREE PUT A REASON.

Ok, so I've put on my hard hat, and am preparing to duck, but please read the whole question before shooting me!
I'm an animal lover who has no problems being a meat eater, but I totally respect those who decide that eating animals is not for them. My question is about where we draw the line when it comes to respecting the right to life?
So as caring animal owners we worm our animals, and vaccinate them, so worms and germs have no right to life, is this OK?
Do we quite happily try and eradicate insect problems, ants, wasps, flies, mosquitoes?
When it comes to rats and mice, in the barn, or in the feed shed, potentially spreading disease to our animals, which has the right to life?
We have problems with prairie dogs, and fox and badger holes, they are a definite danger to both horses and cows, how do we deal with that?
We also have coyotes which pose a threat to my calves.
My question is how far up and down the food chain to you go for the right to life?

I want to kill the ants that have invaded my apartment and am not sure the natural remedies will work--and I am impatient. Will a RAID ant disc placed out of reach of the cat (as in, under the fridge), be a danger to him? Any other ways of getting rid of ants?

i find them in my backyard all the time and my dog loves to go after them...i tried drowning one in my pool with my pool pole net. i kept it at the bottom of the pool for probably 40 minutes at the bottom of my 10 foot pool and it was still alive...will they die if you stick them in a deep freezer? maybe i should just shoot them with a pellet gun at point blank range?

There are several breeders with pet quality Yorkies in the price range of $400 and higher in the Houston area. I looked at the lower price Yorkies at one of the breeder's website, and they looked worth taking a visit to see them. I fell in love with the photos of several of the $400 Yorkies. Should I be cautious of these low prices? I am home for the summer and wanted to have this time to be with an added little one to our home.

I saw the people from a restaurant fastened a donkey to the barrier out of the gate. I don't think they feed the donkey cuz for 3-4 days, I've noticed they just leave him there without any attendance. This donkey is getting weak day after day, Yesterday I passed by after work, I saw he was trying to stand up, but failed to do it for the weakness. which made me really sad, I'd like to feed him today if he is still alive. But should I buy the special food or I can just use some carrots?

I have a cocker-spaniel and two cats. I would like to get invisible fences for all of them so I can start letting my indoor cat out (he wants to go outside so bad) and to keep my dog from running away anymore (which he's been doing every few months for the last 10 years.. he's hoodini i swear) Is there an electric or radio fence that is gauranteed to work for both that I can install myself? I can't really afford to pay to have it installed.

Ok, here's the scoop: I have an indoor cat, 11 years old. I recently got married to a man who already has a dog (hyper, slobbery, english springer spaniel - not like a cute jack russell or anything) who is almost 5 or something. Whatever.
My cat, of course, is way more important than any dog, so he gets to stay indoors all day long and the dog has to stay out. :-)
My husband does bring in the dog at night, but in a room with a closed door, so the two animals don't interact.
Frankly, I'd rather the dog go, but that, unfortunately, is not an option. Now, when and how should they be introduced formally?
I'm also traveling next week, so I'm a bit nervous about that, leaving them all together. Whee.
Advice? Thanks!!

I had a caterpillar and I didn't notice when it turned into a cacoon. But my sister took it to school and when she got home the cacoon was on the tank floor. (the tank is small) And the cacoon now looks brown with really dark brown at the bottom. Is it still alive? And if it is, what can I do to put it back up? (I don't have hot glue)

It is horrible people act like pets are throw-away items, and yet the price to pay is 2 months and a 1,000 dollar fine. It SUCKS out loud.
