Pig Rabbit

What is the best pet for a 12 year old? Hamster, Rat, Guinea Pig, Rabbit, Gerbil, or a Dog?
I’ve had a lot of pets in my years so I could be called really experienced. I am also really mature for my age. I was wondering which pet I should get: a Hamster, rat, guinea pig, rabbit, gerbil, or a small dog? Please help me. I have had some of these before and I just was considering another one. Please also list some facts and persuasion, pros and cons about the pets. Thanks!
I think you should get a ferret. It’s something different and they’re really cool and interesting pets. They are very smart and can do lots of things, you can even walk them on a leash! They use a litter box too, which is easier than a dog, even though they require the same responsibility. Ferrets are nothing like hamsters or rats, they need to be played with for a long time everyday outside of their cage. Think about it, they’re a good decision.

Two Sheppard Greene
Should we revert back to being cavemen?
The life of a caveman was a natural one, man and nature in concert with, and respectful of, one another.
Man became hungry, looked for food, ate some and stored the rest for the lean months. Man remained lean.
The cavemen were tough, resilient people, with a healthy respect for Mother Nature. More importantly, they were an intelligent people. Intelligence is about fulfilling needs which, in turn, creates resourcefulness. Resourceful people are ingenious, imaginative, capable and quick-witted.

Combo Pet
What do you think of this pet combo?
we got a kitten, Twinkle a while ago and it has been a great addition to the family but now my wife, who is an avid animal lover, has her heart set on a baby hedge hog she saw at the pet store. Is that combo possible? I just know I need to find some way to make it work because I don’t want to be the bad guy and my couch is not that comfy if you know what I mean lmao
Absolutely it’s possible. As long as you can stand it! lol. Just teach your kitten what is acceptable play with the hedgehog, (if you want them to interact that is) and make sure the kitten’s claws are nice and trimmed so there aren’t any accidents. Don’t forget your hedgehog has some natural defense that will teach your kitten a lesson if he gets too rough. Also, when setting up the hedgehog cage, make sure the bar width isn’t big enough for “twinkle” to get his/her paws into, and make a house at the back of the cage where the hedgehog can hide out if he’s feeling harassed. Make sure twinkle realizes that the hedgehog is an equal. It’s fortunate twinkle is a kitten too, it’ll be easier to train him.

Don\’t Let Fighting Like Cats & Dogs be Causes Of Divorce
Have you ever had an occasion to watch a batch of kittens or puppies. Cute little devils aren\’t they? Chewing on each other\’s ears, playfully slapping each other around and chasing their tails. A little bit of friendly growling and gentle calling out now and then.
And then it happens. One of them takes it a bit too far. What was all fun and games has become a serious confrontation and a warning to back off. The fur is about to hit the fan. The situation has suddenly become volatile.
Does this description resemble you as a married couple? Is your turf being challenged more often than not? When one or the other\’s space is invaded to far it is the rule more than the exception for someone to come out swinging verbally and sometimes physically. It is only a matter of time until this kind of jostling will put someone in the hospital and someone in jail and/or divorce court.

Rabbit Guinea

Can I feed my rabbit guinea pig pellets?
I accidentally bought guinea pig pellets for my rabbit (about 7 y/o) and it is not returnable. You think I could feed him the entire 5 pound bag until it runs out? I know that you can’t feed rabbit food to a g/p but I’m just curious if there would be any complications for my rabbit. Thanks in advance…
No.

Glider Ferret

Are my sugar glider and Ferret depressed?
I feel really bad for my animals and am just recently am taking action to bond with them a lot more. I’ve had the sugar glider for maybe a year or so and the ferret for less than two. I care a lot for them but realize I haven’t exactly been showing that. I feel real bad for keeping my ferret (which is suppose to be an energetic animal) in a cage all the time. And my sugar glider (which you’re suppose to spend A LOT more time with) he’s the same way. I guess just maybe, like if I start being around with them a lot NOW can they um….”forgive me” in a way?
Will they be bonded?
It may be stupid, but I keep thinking about how my poor sugar glider has pretty much ALMOST been lonely since he was a baby. Brings a tear to the eye you know?
I think if you start now, a bond can still form with your glider. Also, if you think you may not have time EVERY night, maybe consider getting him a friend? They are pretty much always better off with one of their own to play with when you’re not around…

Why Your Home and Garden Need Bird Control
by Arlene Connolly
Not everyone is aware that more than 60 human diseases are related to birds and their droppings, and some of them can even be fatal to humans. When birds cause damage to your home, they leave ugly stains, cause the structure to deteriorate, and may also lessen the value of your property. In addition, experienced home owners can tell you that the repairs, maintenance and clean-up from their invasions can be quite expensive, and humane bird control provided by Bird-B-Gone is a preventive measure you can take to keep expenses down.
Some reasons for using bird control around your home
Woodpeckers can severely damage wood homes, siding and shingles, and Canada geese can ruin your lawn. (They can also make quite a mess of your property if they are not controlled.) Blackbirds and starlings can eat the fruit and vegetables you cultivate so carefully in order to economize and feed your family well, and the great blue heron will go after the fish in your pond, if you have one.

Hamster Mouse

Is it ok to feed my hamster mouse/rat food?
I accidentally bought the Nutriphase mouse/rat food instead of hamster food. It basically has all the same ingredients as the hamster food but it has more protein (16% instead of 12%) and more fat (7% instead of 4%) Would it be ok to feed this to my hamster?
No. Mice and rats have a different nutritional need than hamsters. I do not feed my rats hamster food, because it does not have the nutrients that my rats need to be happy and healthy. The same would go for your hamster. The rat food won’t have what your little guy needs.

Hamster Gerbil Mice
Pets are fine to have around because they keep their owners cheerful and present them with companionship. There are people who favor frequent pets like dogs and cats. However, there are also people who opt for alien and exotic pets.
Exotic pets are just like the other animals around but they are just novel to look at, and to sell with especially if they are living close to the habitat of man. Exotic pets are called such because they aren’t normally seen within the soul environment.
Adventurous people wish to take nurturing of exotic pets like big lizards, iguanas, alligators, and big snakes. Strange as it may appear, these pets keep them guests and sometimes not inside the pet cages but even in the privacy and luxury of their own homes.
Owning an exotic pet can be utterly complex as they entail a different kind of treatment compared to general pets. Exotic pets are also more costly to take worry of because of their food and living requirements. Most exotic pets are best left in the wildlife where they can take heed of one another but when a person brings home an exotic pet, he must make confident that the pet is well taken problem of by a veterinarian.

Degu Cage

A good material to build a solid floor in my degu cage?
Im looking for a good material to build a solid floor in my degu cage. Right now the floor is grated and I dont think that is good for their feet. I was thiking maybe a sheet metal? Any suggestions well appreciated
Sheet metal would work very well. I’d just make sure no sharp edges are degu-accessible.
Also, I know people who have also used use kiln-dried pine boards, and then had old t-shirts/sweaters, and/or cardboard layered on top. Which didn’t last very long, since the goos would take the old t-shirts and bring them to the nest, and chew up the cardboard. xD Hah.

Furminator Deshedding

The Furminator deshedding shampoo says it is enriched with omega 3 and 6 fatty acids but does it smell bad?
Im thinking about giving my black lab a furminator bath and the shampoo says enriched with omega 3 and 6 fatty acids but it says clean and fresh scent but im worried that if i get some on my clothes it will make them smell like omega acid or is it just a small amount
Omega 3 isn’t an acid like battery acid. It is a fatty acid like found in fish oil – greasy & the amount that is in that shampoo is tiny at best. Besides it is just shampoo & will wash right out of your clothes. Don’t expect extra de-shedding either.

Marmoset Monkey

How do I see the difference between a 1 year old male and female marmoset monkey?
I have a marmoset monkey who is 1 year old.The people we bought it from said it is female, but I am strongly having doubts right now.And to make it worse, everyone you speak to has something different to say. There are no experts around where I live, so I would really appreciate it if someone can help.
You may not really be able to tell for a little while longer. Sexual maturity is reached between 9 to 13 months in the male, and 18 to 24 months in the female so you might have to wait for sexual organs to “drop” in a male before you can tell either way… I used to have Spider monkeys. A veterinarian might be able to help a little better in your area.

What is a good rodent or small animal to have in a household with a cat?
My Guinea Pigs have passed on just recently and I am looking into getting another furry friend. I do have a cat( but she has never bothered my Guinea Pigs) so this means I can’t have something like a ferret, who needs to be able to roam the house. What would be a good rodent or other small animal to have in these circumstances?
I agree, get a rat. When you let your rat out for its daily jaunt, just close the door so the cat doesn’t get in. I like to put an old blanket out on my bed and let my girls run. Rats are self aware, which means they can think and have feelings much like we do. They’re smart, trainable (including litter box), and extremely clean creatures. The worst part is that their life span is so short, only 3-5 years, and they’re prone to tumors. I’ve found all of my rats to be generally healthy throughout their lives. I’ve only had to take one to the vet in all the years I’ve had them.
