My parents brought went to the beach and brought back some shells. In one of those shells however is a hermit crab! They put him in a large plastic container in a shed in my back yard. I've decided I would like to keep him, but I have a few questions. First, will he be ok out there until I can get a crabitat at the pet store for him tomorrow, or should I bring him inside? I live in thecentral region of NC so it is pretty humid outside. Second, if the shed was a bad place for him, do you think he will survive?

Thanks A Lot!

Sixteen animals in all, not including my five-year-old nephew...should I make it seventeen by getting a parrot, or do you think it's a bad idea? Right now I'm in doubts...what if its too much work, with seventeen animals and a boy I'm taking care of for a while? What if Davey lets the parrot out and it gets eaten by one of my cats???

I just have a few questions...
I had a cat who had fleas.I've been dealing with fleas for a month now.
I sprayed the house then came back to vaccum. I noticed a few fleas jumping around. So, me being neurotic, I ripped out all the carpets in the house(3 bedrooms).I washed almost all the clothes and blankets in the house. I sprayed again with stuff from the hardware store. I vaccumed every second day. I still saw fleas so about 2 weeks ago my cousin gave me a can of VET KEM from a vet's office. It has IGR in it and it says it has 7 months residual action against pre-adult fleas. I am still vaccuming every second day.Matresses, floors, couches, curtains, everything in the house.I wash the bedding every time I vaccum.I am still seeing fleas.
What is the amount of Borax and salt I should use. I've read to spray matresses, so I mix it with water,right?
I am frustrated! I really don't know how much more vaccuming I can do!!
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I have a coworker with whom I share a desk with on another shift and he must have fleas because I found one biting my arm and I am constantly finding bites on my legs. I don't have any pets at home, so I know they are not from me. He has a couple dogs and couple cats. How do I approach this situation? I have a baby at home and don't need to bring fleas home to her. It's to the point where I dread coming to work. I told my supervisor who didn't do anything. What should I do now? I don't want to seem like a baby but I shouldn't have to come to work and get attacked by insects. Any advice is appreciated.

I've tried a few things but no joy. Also tried to syringe it straight into his mouth but he only ends up getting half the dose because of the wriggling! Any suggestions please?

I'm not sure I have a real strong opinion either way, but what do you think?? Why do YOU choose to adopt or buy from a breeder? I have both - I have one purebred dog (chihuahua) from a reputable breeder and one shelter dog (lab/shepherd mix).

My friends asked me why I decided to search for a chihuahua breeder instead of going to the humane society again and I had to admit that I wanted to know my dogs lineage/health history. I have no intentions to breed her though, so she will be spayed in a month.

Although I love my shelter dog, she was diagnosed with idiopathic epilepsy and will likely need to be medicated the rest of her life (she's almost 2) and continue to have annual blood work done to test her levels. I hardly believe that if I would have gotten her from a reputable breeder (not that they breed mixes, but you know what I'm saying), she would have epilepsy. I know purebred doesn't necessarily guarantee against illness, but you know what they're predisposed to.

Just curious to hear opinions. I am horrified by waht happens to animals. I grew up in foster homes, and im glad that i wasnt put to sleep like an animal is. I think less tax money should go to felone's in prison, and the tax money should go to the animals to get them neutered/spayed.

I just purchased this product for my pet. I see a change in her behavior already. She no longer bites or scratches her skin. She was diagnosed with sarcoptic mange but the dips didn't work. This product was recommended, but I haven't read any testimonials about how well this product works. Any comments would help. Thanks to everyone in advance. :)

and i just cant get them to stop fighting. Now we are moving to a new place and my roommate has a 3 month old female black lab. We have tried bringing them all around each other to see if they will get along but the cats still fight and now the dog barks at the cats and chases them. Any suggestions to get them to stop fighting before we move to the new place?

I just found this cat outside my door that looks like it hadn't been fed for a long time. The thing is, she is spayed, she likes to be held, and when she hears the word 'munchies' she gets excited, like someone said that to her a lot. Unfortunatly, I haven't found anyone who claims to be her owner. I've walked door to door all over my extremely small town, but still have found nothing. Does anybody have any tips that can possibly help me find her owner(s)?
