My 18 month old is going through the usual clinginess and seperation issues for children her age. Starting this week she is getting "spooked" really easily. Lots of things are scaring her that never scared her before, including but not limited to certain toys, our pets, other people etc. Any ideas on how to calm her nerves a little?

Best thing I can suggest is just to talk to her, when she acts frightened, ask her why she is scared. Then together sit with her in front of whatever it was that scared her and talk to her, tell her it's not scary, show her what the thing does, if it is a toy, maybe put the toy away for a while so she can't see it. If it is the pets, sit with her and talk to and pet the animals. She will outgrow this stage, it's very typical, my kids all went through it too. Well, ok I have one currently going through it. We just take one terror at a time one day at a time and eventually everything will be just fine, no more being suddenly scared. Best wishes.

one million. definite, they are going to probable savor it plenty. in simple terms keep in mind that in simple terms like human beings, rats shouldn't eat too plenty sugar or fat else they are going to get fat and improve well-being problems. 2. Rats can eat tremendously much something human beings can eat. on an identical time as their are exceptions to this (uncooked sweat potatoes, uncooked beans, citrus culmination--probable some others, yet i won't be able to keep in mind them off the right of my head) there are extra human ingredients they might eat than they can't eat. in simple terms keep in mind that human ingredients could be seen treats, and can not be fed in extra. On trip trips i like to furnish my ladies slightly dinner sampler: bits of mashed potatoes with gravy, stuffing, turkey and little products of pie. 3. boxes, jingly cat toys, infant toys, be resourceful with toys to your rats! one in each of my rats general issues is a container of tissues. 4. this is a sturdy thought to get a hammock, as maximum rats seem to savor drowsing in them. in case your cage is super sufficient to get a wheel sufficiently vast for a rat (a minimum of 12') i could say decide for it. not all rats will use a wheel, yet people who do incredibly savor them. 5. i'm uncertain yet: I have been given them a super cage final month, so my rat funds is particularly constrained. i will probable in simple terms proportion my dinner with them. 6. perhaps, i think of it relies upon on how badly infested the cats are. If the cats have in simple terms some fleas, probable not...yet once you're house is infested they might aim your rats. 7. generally approximately 2 years. In my experience maximum rats start to pass downhill after 2 years, and die someplace between their 2nd and nil.33 birthday. :(

Introduce her to the things that scare her. Tell her what they are and what they do and show her how they work.
Basically, show her why they aren't scary.
