Other - Pets - September 2007

i have 2 rabbits and one of them has a red infection on her cheek (near her nose) and it is swollen. I tried spraying mite and lice spray on her body to prevent further infection because I think it is a mite infection.

I have noticed that neither of my rabbits have drunk ANY water for a long time. They used to drink fine when they were younger (they're about 1-2 years old now). I tried giving water to them by hand but they refuse.I tried giving water to them in a bowl! But they refused.

How can I get them to drink? It's very necessary for a rabbits diet to drink water.
What are some other ways to help the rabbits infection?

Before i start I AM TAKING MY GP TO THE VET ON MONDAY so no smart @rse answers about taking him to the vet!!
My 1st guinea pig had a huge lump on his chest that grew VERY quickly. When we took him to the vet (about 3 years ago) they operated, said it was a tumour & that it was very likely to come back within 12 months. However, it still has not grown back. For some odd reason, my 2nd gp has now got the same thing. It started off as a double chin (all 6 of my gps get this through summer when they have lots of grass to eat!) but in as little as 7 days it is HUGE! I am so embarrassed that i did not notice it sooner, but he is in no apparent pain, is eating well, and is very energetic (they are not v. tame so i only get to give them a once over every few days or so).

So, are these lumps common, what could they be? The first gps lump was grey and mushroom like where it had sprouted very quickly. The lump feels quite small & hard but is surrounded by lots of fluid, there are no wounds..

I swear half the people on here asking breeding questions are under fifteen. Does it occurr to people that if you have to ask twenty questions about breeding your cat or dog, that maybe you shouldn't do it?

I really want another pet but my parents always say no when i ask for another one.

I have a cat but she is pretty boring and shes not so crazy about being held. And she gets bored with her toys pretty quick.

I would really like a gerbil. NO dogs (wont let me even though i LOVE them) NO parrots (annoying) NO fish (too boring) NO more cats (my cat doesnt like other cats) NO chinichillas i guess (very exspensive). But of you have a good reason why i should get one of these pets tell me why.

If you have any other ideas on pets let me know. And by chance do you have any ways to convice my parents to get another pet?? Thanks!

My husband was evicting someone out of their apt and they had a tarantula running lose in their house. My husband scooped it up in a plastic box with holes poked in it. We fed it a cricket and it ate it. We are holding it for 30 days to see if the owner wants him. If not we'll keep him.

but if we keep him, can we touch it or hold it? Will it bite us? If it bites us, will we be poisened?

I read they are venomous but my husband says their not and I dont like spiders. They give me the heebeejeebees!

I have a petsmart by my house and they don't seem to handle the animals there very much. They don't really know much about them at all really. But all of the animals seem healthy and active and there seems to always be a new stock of them every time I go in. So I guess they sell fast. But I was wondering, if I get a rat from this store and it hasn't really been handled much will I be able to tame it?

I posted this before but it was in the wrong category..

I found it in my house and I'm not sure what kind it is. I live in Portland Oregon that has a mild and wet climate.
