My guinea pig has been staggering around, and won't eat a whole lot. She's just been laying around, very lethargic. I have a vet appointment for Monday. Any ideas? Anyone ever experience this? Just trying to put my mind at ease.

I went to get the mail and came back to find my dad found a wild baby mouse. Well, young adult? I don't know. It's the size of a mini candy bar. we have it in a large, large jar right now. I put some crumpled up cheese(I don't know what kinda, but it's not American) and some evaporated milk in the jar. It nibbles on the cheese and drinks the milk, but I want to make sure it won't kill it or anything.
Any advice on what else to do with it or feed it? Or anything?

I live on the mountains so I can't go to a vet or get supplies, and we go to Lewiston next week so if I need anything minor I can get it.

I have a 7 month old cambpells dwarf hamster and she's getting kinda stinky. I've heard people say bathes with water are fine but then again i've heard people say that they will get them sick and the last thing i want to get is my baby sick, so i was having a total genuis moment and thought of chinchilla sand, would that be better??

If you have had a pet rat, would you recommend it as a first pet. How about for young kids (that really want a pet, and I think would treat it respectfully).

Are Dwarf Hamsters a friendly breed of Hamster? Is a male or female Dwarf better? Do they bite alot? And can they climb verticle tubes? and my cage is originally for a syrian hamster but would it be okay for a dwarf?

I've had a rabbit for about 4 weeks now. I clean his cage out every single night, but by next morning it smells so bad again. Is it normal for their pee to be very strong in odor?

My friend can no longer afford to keep her two dwarf rabbits. She knows i am a "pet person" and offered to give them to me, along with their cage, because she said she knows i'll take care of them. I got some books about rabbits at the library and i'm also researching them online. I even have an extra room that we use for my cockatiel, and there's plenty of space for a bunny hutch. The problem is, I don't think my parents will say yes. I already have a german shepherd, a cockatiel, and a goldfish (the rabbits would not be interacting with my dog). My mom's not a big fan of small furry animals, because she's afraid they'll smell bad. I'm responsible, I do my chores, I get good grades, I'm in honors classes, I passed with high marks on the final exams, and my allowance is big enough to provide food and toys for the bunnies. Does anyone know any tips to soften up my parents??

...besides the obvious answer of throwing him out the window or giving him food every 5 minutes.

My hamster, Sunshine died a year ago... we think she died of to hot, we keep her in a cage by the window (no where else to put the cage) and we also had fans all around her cage when it was hot a humid outside. Well that day it was really hot and humid and we where about to leave to the mall, she just looked fine going on her wheel all healthy and we put the fans around her cage. When we got back from the mall we saw her in the middle of the cage tunnel slide thingy and trapped in with the cage bedding! We tried to get her to the vet but she wasn't moving,breathing,and she was already hard. So we just put her outside the cage and under a big fan to see if she could live. She didn't. Do you know why she died?

my music teacher told me that she potty trained her guinea pig. how does a person successfully do this? i am adopting a guinea pig from a friend who doesn't care for it, and he probably will have to relearn social skills first and get used to people. i am used to all types of rodents and animals but piggies are new to me. i have potty trained my dog, idk how different it is. any tips?

thanks in advance
