Is it legal for Townhome Assoc. in Calif. to only allow resident homeownes to have pets and not tena

2009-12-29T01:59:00.002-08:00

According to the rules and reg's of my townhome assoc. in Huntington Beach, Ca, only resident homeowners can have pets but tenants are prohibited from having any kind of pet.

Does the Davis-Sterling Act or any other CA law prohibit this kind of discrimination? Many tenants have had pets for years and are left alone as long as the pet isn't brought to the attention of the BOD. The rule is not enforced for everyone.

Unenforced rules become voidable for the lack of enforcement. Also, if they tried to enforce this against a tenant, the Homeowners Association would have a hard time justifying the different treatment. It's a equal protection argument that could be raised as a defense and the burden shifts to the association to prove their a rational basis for the distinction. Since tenants probably have a lower income than owners, the "right" tenant could find a discrimination defense also, particularly if the tenant is a member of a protected minority. If you were the tenant, I think the lack of enforcement is a winner.

No, this is permitted. In general a landlord can make any reasonable rules for property that is let as a dwelling; you'll often see 'no pets' rules at apartment complexes. The same laws allow the HOA to set this type of rule for your townhouse.

Why would anyone be against people having pets?

2009-12-29T01:59:00.000-08:00

Some animals rights activists are just psychotic. Why are some of the radicals against people having pets? Don't they know that a dog or cat is going to have a better life when we kiss their a**es, feed them, love them, and do everything for them so they wont have to lift a paw, than they would in the wild? My dogs love being lazy old farts.

Groups like PETA are like groups such as the Greens - they give bad names to good causes.

I think it's important to protect the environment and the animals - there's just appropriate ways to do it, and harmful ones.

unfortunately, not all people treat their pets well. just look at some animals in the humane society. they were abused, not fed, and many other bad things. im an animal lover, and some stories ive heard disturb me. but if people treat animals right, i agree with you.

Why would anyone be against people having pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

Rights activities have on their best interests in mind, not always what they are fighting for. I applaud people who adopt pets and actually take care of them, but I never in my life would say that no one should have a pet! That is just the kind of thing that puts the pet population in a tailspin from not enough to go around to too many out on the streets! Animals are people, too, in their own right, and deserve more than an occasional treat for being a "good dog". Why ANYONE would be against pets is beyond me, unless they have an allergy or something.

Would you like a guy that hates pets?

I just see pets as a waste in time and money.

Would you like a guy that hates pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I would... I mean I can personally do without them. It's not like I don't like animals but they aren't a necessity for me. My boyfriend loves animals and I sometimes wish he didn't so much. He has a snake that I'm terrified of and I just think snakes are gross.... But he also has a dog and I'm cool with it but he does get annoying sometimes.

Would you like a guy that hates pets?

-(Myspace.com)

I would only hate a guy who harmed animals, not someone who just didn't like having pets. I personally have three pets. I just love having them around and taking care of them. The way I see it, if you can't take care of the pet then don't get one. So no I would not hate you if you didn't like pets, as long as you didn't hate me for having them :)

Do hens make good pets?

Do hens make good pets?

I have a big Avery that i got from a friend that used to keep hens in.

I used it 4 my birds but they died.

It is really good and also cemented in the ground so i kinda can't get rid of it.

I have some more questions about hens, here they are.

1. What do they eat?

2. How long do they live?

3. Do they take much looking after?

4. Are they very loud?

5. Do they like being handled?

6. How many can i keep in a cage that is approx 210cm wide x 200cm high x 150cm depth?

7. How much do they cost?

8. What sort of bedding do they need?

Would i still be able to get one or more hens, because i have a border collie x staffy, she would not be able to go near or get to them?

She is fine with my rabbits, fish and Bird!

I have done reasearch and will continue.

Can you help!? 鈾?br>Do hens make good pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Do Hen鈥檚 make good pets?

This all depends on the type of hen that you choose. Bantams and larger breeds of birds can both make great pets but either one could not be right for you because they are completely different.

What do they eat?

Chickens will eat basicly anything? You could by chicken scratch which is a mixture of grains. The price of scratch depends on where you get it. At the feed mill that I get my grain at in Ohio they cost 14 $ for 100lb. Other places will cost more. Some people also feed their chicken鈥檚 rabbit food and since you already have rabbits this may be a better way for you. The larger the bird the more food it will eat.

How long do they live?

This really depends on the care of the chicken. If you let it live the life of a normal chicken it will most likely live 5-6 years. If you spend a lot of money on medicine for the birds and get good protein grain they should live longer.

Do they take much looking after?

Daily work includes 鈥揻eeding, watching them for awhile to see if there is anything wrong, and collecting eggs.

Weekly work- clean out the coop

Are they loud?

This all depends on the birds. My bantams are very noisy but my bigger birds like the Brahmas, Rocks and Cornish are usually silent. A hen can be very noisy after she lays her eggs.

Do they like being handled?

This also depends on the bird. Smaller birds don鈥檛 like to be held as much as the larger birds. My bantams will usually through a fit if you try to hold them but my Rhode Island Red鈥檚 walk up to you and seem to say, 鈥淗old Me.鈥?So larger breeds of chickens are more likely to allow you to handle them.

Space

So you cage is around 6ft wide but how long is it? If your cage isn鈥檛 as long as it is wide then I wouldn鈥檛 get any chickens because there isn鈥檛 enough room for them to stay healthy. You should keep two chickens because when you aren鈥檛 there your chicken is going to want company, and it should be with another chicken.

How much do they cost?

This depends on the breed or the bird that you are buying. A Polish bird is going to cost more than a Rhode Island Red. Chicks will also cost less than a full grown bird but, it is very hard just to get two chicks (most want to sell them in at least groups of seven and up.) My Rhode Island Red chicks were around 3 dollars each. So the cost will be depending on what you want.

What sort of bedding do they need?

For a nesting box I would suggest straw. As for a place to sleep I would suggest a roosting stick. Your hens will prefer to roost as they sleep then to lay in a box. Chicken鈥檚 go to the bathroom while they are sleeping so they don鈥檛 want to lay down in a box.

If you still wish to get a bird I would suggest a larger breed such as Cochin, Brahma, Rhode Island Red, Black Austrops, I have also heard that Silkies are great pets. These birds are usually calmer and you will find it easer to turn them into a pet that you want.

Hope this helps

Do hens make good pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

If your birds died, be sure to disinfect before using it for any fowl again. Hens don't make cuddly pets but are interesting to watch and observe. They eat corn or pellets especially made for poultry. They can live over 5 years, must be checked on at least once a day, twice in extreme cold or heat/ They can be as loud as a dogs bark. Young chicks or 'yellow fluff ' are usually bought in quantities, under $50. for a box of 50 to 100. They sit on horizontal poles to sleep/rest, only nesting when raising young. Nesting materials may be straw or other hay like material. Is this a trick question? How many hens do you think you could put in a 200cm space?
I used to live in the philippines about two years ago. My cousin raised some fighting cocks and he gave me a young one to take care of until it grew bigger so we could fight it. After getting it, i did not feel like training it and fighting it like the others do so i kept it as a pet.

They live about 6 or 8 years, are pretty easy to take care of and do not require much attention and do not make much noise. Firstly, you need to keep it in an area where no other animals, especially dogs and cats, will disturb it. The hen i had was tied to a string (by the foot) about two arms lenght and other end of the string either tied to a nail in the ground or a T.

A T is 2 pices of wood, one about 5 times longer than the other, placed on the ground in the form of a T. It is good for the hen so he can fly up on it and learn to keep his balance. If you have the space, this is preferable to the cages because they need space to walk around, strech their wings and fresh air.

They are easy to feed, mostly corn, cooked or uncooked. Depending on where you live you will be able to find small stores that sell specific feeds for hens which contain vitamins and stuff but it's not nescessary. Make sure their drinking water is not stale, change it often.

One thing you need to take care of properly is their feces. Just sweep it up or spray it with a hose, try to clean it whenever you can as often as you can, don't just let it sit there. Hens go a few times a day, obviously the size will not be as big as dogs or cats but are just as dirty.

Once it gets settled it should not be difficult to handle and pick up unless it is bred specifically to fight, then it might attack you.

Also try to bathe it every 1 or 2 weeks. Make sure the water is not too cold, mix in some shampoo and soap before putting it in a bucket. The water should not go higher than his wings, then just pour some over his head with cup.

Hope this helps.

Also the T should be about 1 meter of the ground.
1. Chicken feed. You can get these at COOPs or many pet stores if you live in a rural area.

2. This really depends on the breed. I've heard as long as 5-8 years.

3. They need to be fed and have their coops cleaned out every day.

4. Again, this depends on the breed.

5. Breed dependent! If you're looking for a lovey breed, go for a silky chicken. These generally cannot be used for meat or eggs, though.

6. I would only have around 2, especially since you are just starting out. Unless you want them to breed, get two females. Two males may fight.

7. Depends on the breed and where you get them from.

8. Dirt and hay should be okay. Check with the person from whom you buy them to see what they are used to!

So many things are breed-dependent. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Be sure to ask these specific questions to the person from whom you buy them. Also, go out to check on them at least in the morning and the evening to be sure they're okay.

Check your zoning laws too! If you are not in a rural area, many places have laws against barnyard fowl.
I've never had a hen as a pet...so I don't have any answers for your question. However, you can ask me any questions about budgies, finches, cats, dogs gerbils, hamsters, turtles, newts, snails, praying mantises, grasshoppers, fish, mice, and cockroaches and human beings...all of which I have had as pets and companions.
1. They need to have chick starter until they are 8 weeks old, then grower pellets until they are 20 weeks old, and then layers pellets.

2. Barring accidents, diseases and predators, the average backyard hen lives 5-8 years.

3. ~10 minutes twice a day, plus cleaning out time. Mine need cleaning out about once every week and a half.

4. Cockerels are, but hens aren't. They make a soft clucking sound, only getting a bit louder when they've just layed an egg.

5. Some breeds are flightier than others. Anyway, it is important to handle them regularly, just so that they continue being friendly.

6. You have about 45sq ft. Go to http://www.allaboutchickens.tk and click on coops to find the specific space requirements (it's a bit complicated, and it's explained well there). Don't forget they also need a coop, not just an aviary.

7. It's almost impossible to answer how much they cost, as the cost of buying a bird varies by breed, age, gender, closeness to breed standard, and your location. However, keeping them is very cheap. I once worked out it costs me ~6p/day per hen, but that doesn't include start-up costs.

8. Pine shavings are the best.

As for your dog, then if she would not be able to get into their cage, then you will be fine, especially given that she has never gone after any of your other animals.

Contrary to what another poster said, they never need bathing, unless you are taking them to a show.

My favourite chicken website has to be www.backyardchickens.com - without it, I never would have got chickens.

Why do some people still breed their pets?

2009-12-29T01:58:00.000-08:00

With all the dogs (millions) dying in shelters every year because of not enough homes, why do some.....people..... still insist on breeding their pets? When only 1 dog in 10 gets a permanent home, why do they still do backyard breeding? Someone please tell me. Why?

Why do some people still breed their pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I cannot believe some of the responses to this question! Some of them are so irresponsible!Here are some facts:Most people are surprised to learn that we have a very large pet overpopulation problem here in the United States. There are so many animals born DAILY that it boggles the mind! This is a nightmare problem that doesn閳ユ獩 ever seem to get better. The Humane Society of the United States estimates that there are over 70,000 puppies and kittens born every twenty-four hours. That is a whole lot of babies! To even attempt to place those numbers of animals is impossible. There are about seven animals to every human born. The sad fact is that just is not possible to place them all.

Every year over 20 million animals end up in a shelter. Over 15 million of them are killed (euthanized is the nice term). Of those animals 61% of the dogs and 75% of the cats are killed. Very few of these are claimed and there are many more that die from disease, starvation, animal attacks and cars! Anyone who sees these facts must agree that not neutering an animal is contributing to mass cruelty and irresponsibility!

Many people feel that neutering an animal is cruel, it isn閳ユ獩. The fact is that it is actually much healthier and more beneficial to your animal.

Benefits to your pet after neutering mean that females have less chance of ovarian cancer or uterine infections if it is done before their first "heat". Each cycle they experience increases the chances of illness greatly, as much as ten times each! The other benefit is that you will not have to clean up the mess which happens during her cycle! The behavior benefits mean that your pooch or feline will be calmer and more reliable. You also won閳ユ獩 have to bat the male dogs or cats away and deal with the fence climbing, dirt digging, fence destroying mongrels or yowling, prowling, spraying and fighting tom cats!

Neutering your pet is just as important! It takes only one escape to find a female and become a villain of pet overpopulation. One cat and her kits will produce over 420,000 cats in about seven years! Males who are neutered have less of a desire to roam, fight, mark and be destructive. They also have less problems with the prostate gland and testicular cancer. From a behavioral standpoint, neutered animals are more reliable, stable and have about sixty percent (60%) less problems than those left "intact."

Veterinarians are now able to neuter animals at younger ages, some as early as two to four months of age! Traditionally, most veterinary offices will perform this procedure at six months. It is cheaper and easier to neuter the younger animals as many clinics will charge by weight.

You have a choice to make, be part of the SOLUTION, or part of the PROBLEM!!

Why do some people still breed their pets?

because mostly in shelters thir mmixes
I always wonder that too....... it makes me so sad, knowing that an uneducated breeder with no idea what they're doing is making more puppies when there are too many already.
While there are a sad and pathetic number of animals in shelters that will probably not make it out, the sad fact is that most people want "purebreds" this is what drives the backyard breeders business, so if business is good, why quit? It makes me sick!
There are some people out there that would pay a lot of money for a pure breed dog
Ignorance? I dont know how breeders breed. Let alone a PET.

I wouldnt think of putting my pet thru it. As with all things, e/one has an opinion. :)
I wish all pets would be fixed

the ones who are not registered to breed with AKC
Most pound dogs are too big for little kids. Most are mutts so there's no breed standard to go by. I'm not saying that everyone should breed their dogs but you cant convince everyone to adopt a mutt when they want a particular breed. So, it's a simple supply %26amp; demand situation.
Some people believe that it is the animal's right as an animal to be able to carry on its genes. It is how nature works...They think that it is in humane for humans to take away that right.

I,on the other hand, think that unless an animal has papers that detail their blood line it should be the law to get the animal fixed. That would start to bring down the pet population and prevent backyard breeding.
somtimes to make new breeds i breed rat terriers because there popular where i live and expensive and i wont people like me to be able to afford them
I have a female pitbull that I breed. Instead of concentrating on pet owners that breed their pets, why don't you concentrate on the thousands of animals that are being abused, neglected, "adopted" by bad people and even eaten in other countries.

I breed my dog because I WANTED TO. I wanted her to experience motherhood. I feel that as long as the owner is responsible then why should you care?

I breed my dog once (and not for reasons of having a pure breed because her babies were all mutts) and then I had my males fixed. I feel that it is a choice and should not be mandatory for owners to fix their animals. Most animal lovers are responsible.

If you feel so bad about this, go adopt some animals, take a few strays in and keep them as pets. DON'T TALK ABOUT IT, BE ABOUT IT!

Edited to add: Say what you want Skillet but people don't have to listen to you guys because you think it's senseless. If you read properly, you would see that I said, I breed my female once and then fixed my males. I breed my dog for personal reasons, not money (cause I didn't sell her pups) and not for pure breed status (cause she didn't mix with pittbull). You may think that was 'NO REASON' but I had my reasons. I wasn't offended in the least with this question. Everyone has a right to their opinion. When you come over to my house on a dialy basis and feed all four of my 100+ pound dogs, walk them daily, play with them, bathe them and show them love.....then you can have a say in what I do with my dog and her uterus.
I breed Siberian Huskies because I want to maintain and try to better the breed. A lot of people are in to shows and competition. That is what they do. I breed to maintain a quality dog and to do that is very expensive, there are tests, certifications, DNA samples to take and register, eye scans, also to register with an accredited club ie: AKC, ISCA, SHCA.

There are Government regulations, county restrictions, licenses, inspections. This isn't a go get a couple dogs and let them have puppies and make some money - this is being dedicated to a specific breed and it is very hard work.

Reputable breeders will give a 2-5 yr health guarantee - which basically tells you they are confident in their pups health.

I believe in spaying or neutering - I also believe people have a right to breed dogs, most breeders follow strict guidelines and ethic obligations.

If you take and spay and neuter every dog, cat, etc.. in the world - in 20 years people will be on here begging people to help them find any kind of pet. They'll all be gone. Then what?
Oh my god, people are so ignorant sometimes...grrr...

there was a person who answered this question above me who said she did it becasue she "wanted to" and seemed all offended. She said she was an animal lover and was responsible. She said that she didn't even breed her dog for the sake of making purebreds. So basically, what she was saying, is that she bred her dog for absolutely NO REASON other than to add more mixed breed dogs to the already overpopulated world...If she had not added more dogs to the world, a few more dogs could have been saved from euthanasia at a shelter. That is irresponsible dog ownership and the exact reason that so many animals die everyday.

If you are a true animal lover you will spay and neuter your pets and adopt animals from the shelter.

And people can get purebreds at shelters so you can't use the excuse that you wanted a purebred dog.

And also, you can't use the excuse that shelter dogs are too big for kids like someone previously did becasue if you had ever been to a shelter you would find all different sizes, temperments and breeds of dogs. There is a right dog for everybody at the shelters if you look hard enough.

(However if you are a dedicated breeder looking to better or carry on a certain purebred dog, then that is different...that is not ignorance. When people breed because they like puppies, or because they want money or something like that, THAT is ignorance.)
Because they are ignorant about how many dogs die each year from euthanisation in shelters also they do it for money and dont care what happens to the dog also they are too cheap too get thier dog spayed/neutered or just to irresponsible keep them away from other dogs if they arent fixed. Also breeders like to fool themselves into thinking that all thier responibly bred puerbreed dogs arent getting dropped of at shelters or used in mills, and also because the just plain make alot of money off of it. I dont think anyone should breed dogs even the Purebred ones there are too many that need homes. When the Human society asked for a voluntary moratorium on breeders they all freaked out and tried to blame the pet over population on owners of mutt dogs and they all refused to stop breeding thier dogs until all the dogs in shelters got homes. Why?? MONEY MONEY MONEY and IGNORANCE or CARELESSNESS or just plain CHEAP and IRRESPONSIBLE

Also why do people say its ok to breed purebred dogs but not mutts?? THAT IS SIMPLY HYPOCRITICAL BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PUREBRED DOGS AFTER THEY ARE SOLD AND CANNOT CONTROL WHAT PEOPLE DO WITH THEM WHERE DO THESE PEOPLE THINK THAT BYBS AN PUPPY MILLS GET THE PUREBREDS THEY ARE EXPLOITING???? geez that makes me so mad you cant have a double standard...it makes no sense. I could just as easily say I am breeding mutts to improve thier health and standardize thier appearance that still doesnt make it right!! All breeds and all mutts are put to death everyday because there arent enough homes!!!!
Oh my gosh....You have touched on an issue that is near and dear to my heart. I agree with you 100%. There are so many animal shelters that offer a low cost spay/neuter program. There is NO excuse not to have your dog spayed or neutered. I try to be somewhat sympathetic to the pure bred breeders as I have known many that breed for the sheer, true love of the breed of their dog. The only problem I have with this is WHY do they not monitor where their dogs are going? Is that one dog going to be allowed to breed and breed? Are that dog's puppies going to be tied to a tree and left to be bred by stray dogs over and over? And what happens to THOSE puppies? It's a never ending breeding cycle and this is why our shelters are overrun and why so many animals are being euthanized before they even have a shot at a good home. It's such a sad, sad thing.
you go boy! educated their monkey asses.

the problem is that there are many lazy people sitting at home looking at their dog with $$$ in their eyes.

If more people were informed and stopped paying for purebred dogs then things would get better.

Who other then show dogs gives a sh!t about purebred anyways? These are the same people that don't let their daughter date black guys.
Please don't clump respectable, intelligent, hard-working people in with "backyard breeders". If everyone stopped breeding dogs right now, there would be no more dogs. That's not terribly realistic, either, is it?

I *never* have unwanted puppies. I have a waiting list of wonderful homes before I even *think* about producing a litter. I have them sign a contract stating that if the dog is not cared for properly (medically and emotionally), that I can reclaim said puppy. Also in this contract, among other things, is the statement that if they must ever give up the dog for any reason, I have the legal right to buy it back first.

I keep in constant touch with all of my puppies' families to be sure that this is enforced. To this day, I have not had to reclaim one puppy. I know all of my puppies by name, and all of their people by first names. I have, and will maintain a 100% placement rate, or I will quit. As it is, for the area I live in, and the breed that I deal with, any "extra" puppies would be very quickly spoken for. I had one, once. It was a large litter. It was the only ad I have ever had to place for my puppies. (Most of the people I deal with are return clients of my mentor's.) This puppy was spoken for one day after I placed a local ad and did the interview. He was two weeks old at that point. (If for some horrible reason, the 12 other people that called about him weren't good homes, I would have kept him myself.) And voila! I have 12 people to interview for the next litter, a year or so later! I've had some people wait two years.

Many people just don't know what it takes to do it the right way, or understand the ethical reasons to do it or to *not* do it. There are solutions, and they will be put in place some day... Until then, we just have to keep directing people to shelters and rescues, which I do all the time. Even at the top of my dog website, the most prominent feature is the link to Petfinder.com, with strong encouragement to adopt an older dog. I am *in no way* in search of homes for my puppies. They find me en masse... I just have to sort through them.

Edit: And by the way, I don't make a penny of profit. I only charge enough for my puppies to pretty much break even. Every cent goes back into my program for (very large) vet bills, dog food, equipment, training, registrations, tests, etc. If you know a rich 'dog breeder', report them. They're doing something underhanded...

If you do get a dog from a shelter or rescue, yo cannot research the dog's temperament, health, or past traumas. A good breeder gives you all of this information when you call them for a puppy, and also provides you with *documentation* to prove that lineage. When you get a dog from a shelter, you often don't know what you are getting. Some people are willing to cope with that issue, and others are not. That is a personal choice, and a *very* important one. With a *GOOD* breeder, you can look at the dog's entire genetic make-up, sitting there in the living room with you, and know your chances of having a good dog or a nasty one, a sick one or a healthy one. It's funny that people don't yet understand this, in the golden age of genetic research.
MOST dog in shelters are mixes. 25% purebred sounds like some made up number from the HSUS or PeTA.

But even to use this number would mean that 75% (most) are mixes. How about getting angry at the people who allow their pets to roam and breed indiscriminately. Why isn't anybody ever raging about the people who are responsible for the 75%? Why does everybody get angry with PB breeders because the pet owning public are to STUPID and LAZY to manage their animals?

The overpopulation problem (and the dog attack problem) could be easily controlled if AC would just ENFORCE LEASH LAWS! It is not brain surgery, it is rather simple.

But, oh, thats right! You ARs don't want to look at real solutions, you just want to wail about the problems...

And yes, I DO look at my dogs with $$$ in my eyes! I pour all my time and money into my dogs. I look at them and think, jeez you guys are expensive.... good thing I love them!

The black-colored pets are made by using the shadow paintbrush. There is also the fire paint brush to make your pet black with flames. To get one, go to the trading post and check if anyone is selling, and they should say how much they're asking. From there, play games to get neopoints. If not, a second option is to get the Secret Laboratory Map, where you can zap your pet one a day to make it change color. However, this is expensive and cannot guarantee you'll get the pet you want. If none of these options suit you, you can always go to the neoboards and see if anyone is abandoning a shadow pet that you can adopt.

Am i wrong??? who should be taking care of the pets???-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

If he's had the cats for ten years then it sounds like he's had them longer than you've been together. I would be happy that he's emotionally open enough to "share" his pets with you. Some people get really weird about that. Since you married him knowing that he has these animals, then I would say take part in taking care of them. You can set rules, though - like you can agree to play with them and check their food and water but not change the litter, etc.

Am i wrong??? who should be taking care of the pets???

-(Myspace.com)

Since he's says they are joint property, take turns feeding them.

Am i wrong??? who should be taking care of the pets???

I feel for ya, Im in the same boat with my wifes dog. I have no good answer, but I understand.
compromise... you both make sure they get fed, and he gets to clean the litterbox :)
just feed the dam cats!
you both should take care of them; they became part of the family when you married. though you may just think of them as cats, he may see them as his babies. why not help him? cats really are not that difficult to take care of!
My wife and son did the same thing to me. I work nights, sleep days. When I woke up one day, POOF! we had two cats in the house! Guess who takes care of them? I'm with you, they are his cats and he should take care of them.
well you married him you the step mom of the cats
Wait until your car breaks down and he tells you that its your car and you should take care of it. I'm sure given a choice he would prefer not to have to deal with your insurance bill.
When you accepted him you accepted everything about him.
sorry to tell you this but he is right they are your cats too.but he too should be taking care of them.come up with some kind of a compromise, so that you have equal responsibility regarding the cats.
Since you don't really want to do it and he doesn't really want to do it. I would suggest one of those self cleaning litter boxes, self feeders and waters (this way you only have to do it weekly) Or I would suggest you guys find a loving home for the cats there is nothing wrong giving the cats to a home that really want them. This does not make you an animal hater.. lol.. But if you both don't have the time nor the real want to care for them then maybe its in there best interest.

But you are not wrong, They where his cats he should be the one taking care of them with you helping out if he needed some help. Which I am sure you would do if he needed it.

Good Luck to you.

Just to add.. People just because she married a man with cats, Maybe she had no clue that when she said I do, meant, I will also take care of your cats. Maybe she figured he was taking care of them before and would continue to take care of them.

They are passing laws now about who gets animals in divorces.. it states who ever bought them. Even if they are bought as a gift.. So your husband would get his cats.. I agree with ya hun. The people who say you married him with his cats should each offer up to come to your house and clean the litter box for you!! lol
You know this never works.. My wife brought home 2 cats and I said they are yours, you take care of them, but if she forgets or is too busy-I end up helping out and just doing it. That's the way it works. If they are definately his, then it should be his main responisiblity, but you can offer to help out when those unexpected times pop up.
They came with him, part of the package. If he'd come with two kids you'd wind up taking care of them too. It's joint custody and part of the relationship. If you don't want to care for others' pets, date guys who don't have animals. That's why I stay away from men who have children: I don't want any kids, nor do I want to care for someone else's.
I think their his animals let him take care of his own. I have a poodle,I care for. My girls have their animals they care for. And my husband doesn't like animals,he's not mean to ours but none of them are "his" pets. He will feed and water them if we ask him too, but we are the main caretakers.

im pretty sure that you cant but if you can you would probably have to get a permit or something
No!!!

Prairie dogs are VERY destructive. I have seen a cute little prairie dog go from "sweet and cuddly" to "tearing up a $2000 set of speakers" in seconds.

Please trust me when I say that these animals are considered exotic for a reason.

Furthermore, they are illegal in some parts of the world. They also require a lot of care and attention, need daily exercise, and LOVE to chew. As I said before, there is no way to train your prairie dog to differentiate between a block of wood and a kitchen table. Everything in your house can and WILL be destroyed if you bring one of these animals into your home.
More like Prairie Rat's there rodent's not dogs and they tare up you land by digging howls, which if you have horses is a bad thing.
it is possible to keep a prarie dog as a pet in some parts of the country. They were responsible for the monkey pox outbreak a few years back though, and since then I haven't seen any for sale in my area. It will depend on where you live whether prarie dogs are allowed as pets or not. It might also be worth noting that wild prarie dogs often harbor plague-carrying fleas, so you should be very careful about the health and source of any pet prairie dog which you do obtain. -Neb
NO NO they caring rapids.
As you now know Prairie Dogs are not dogs but rodents and not a good pet. Please do not consider adopting one, you check out other dogs or rabbits or ferrets or something that has been domesticated. Good luck finding your perfect pet.

i love animals always have done could nether live without them but i m worried about what people will think. i have 4 gerbils in two different cages (female n male) two in each they are in big cages a hamster (honey) a dog (daisy) she is 10 years old so not like a mad puppy chewing everywhere lol andtwo rabbits peter and fluffy they are indor rabbits in a cage both nuetered lol i hate thinking of them getting cold outside i know that sounds silly but that what i like i love them all and all my money goes on my pets which i am happy with and all y animals are happy i just get worried bout what people will think.

Do you think i have to many pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

It is your money and your life. Who cares what people think. You are happy and the animals are getting taken care of and loved.

Besides you do not have allot of animals.

I have 2 dogs, 8 cats a turtle, fish a bunny and soon to have a hermit crab.

there are a lot of peeps that have way more than me . So Don't worry what others think...

Do you think i have to many pets?

-(Myspace.com)

Im the same way you are. As long as your pets are happy and healthy then I dont see a limit. Right now I have 2 gerbils and 2 rats, and I would have a cat and a dog if my apartment would allow it. I also have 3 bettas. I want to get some type of reptile, but right now I dont have the room :-(. My pets are my children.

Do you think i have to many pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

Don't worry about what people think. The only people who matter will think you are an amazing person for caring for these animals. As long as you keep your home and their areas clean and sanitary, it is not a problem. You are a wonderful person for caring so much.
nope
They are not too many, as long as you keep them clean, pay for the vet bills, and get them out of their cages enough.
you don't have many at all. i have 2 cats 1 dog 6 cows 2 pigs 1 horse 80 chickens and 1 000 000 honey bees. lol
Too many only comes into play if you cannot properly take care of them. Otherwise tell everyone else to piss off!
You take great care of your pets and seem to understand about the needs and how to care for them. So long as you have plenty of time and they have enough space, food and water you don't have too many pets.

Great job!
As long as you take very good care of your pets, it doesn't matter if you have a lot of pets. And who cares what people think. Allot of people are not animal lovers, and the ones that do tell you that are usually the people who don't like pets.

If you think you have a lot of pets, you might think I'm nuts. My dad was a bird fanatic and literally had hundreds of birds. Don't worry they had more than enough space. I helped him care for the birds. And as I got older, he gave me a white cockatoo that I raised and fed since he was born ed, a sulfur-crested cockatoo, two love birds, a hamster, two dogs, roosters and chickens. Ever Saturday will be the day I cleaned their cages and take them a bath, and I loved it!!!! But once I moved to another state, I left all my animals with my dad. And he takes good care of them.
People can think what they want as long as you are happy. Some people think that me having two cats is too much! As long as you have the money and the time to care for them then that means you don't have too many. I think you only have too many when you can't care for them well. Also, reasearch has shown that people with pets are generally happier than people with no pets ... so that just means you are very happy!

I am an animal lover with 200 pets?

2009-12-29T01:56:00.001-08:00

I am on the downhill slide to seventy with over 200 pets....They all offer unconditional love but the work is endless....without any smart wise crack replies...because I have heard them all.....can anyone help with how to deal with this...non of my pets are consumable either...well some would be in the normal food chain but I will not allow it....

I am an animal lover with 200 pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Why don`t you find new homes for some of them. I understand your love and dedication.

But (No offense) who is gonna take care of your babies after you are gone? You can run ads on http://dallas.craigslist.org/ and Yahoo has a pet recycle site as well. You can run free ads, as many as you want..

Please in the best interest of these animals.

It is important to find them a forever home, Before you fall out and the HUMANE Society or animal control folks come and put them all to *sleep* as they call it..

Let me say on behalf of those animals, . THANK YOU, You have been a good Dad. And just like ALL good Dad`s ya gotta let them grow up and move away..

God bless %26amp; hugs from Texas. {:-)

Start selling them
I don't think it's fair to your pets to have that many. You can't show them true love because you spend so much time trying to take care of them. I suggest you find a home where they can get the attention and love they deserve. I admire your desire to save all the pets in the world but it's not fesible financially and you'll wear down soon, trust me.
Either you sell them, but if you love them all too much, then hire a helper.!
Give them to loving families but whatever you do Don't put them on the street because the pound will get them and you don't want that!
You are an animal hoarder. Depending on where you live, this is most likely illegal. Call the humane society; unless you are a zoo, you cannot possibly provide adequate care for all of these animals. Do them and yourself a favor and tone it way, way, way down.
well, I don't have much to say. the most I have had was like 30 and I had to get rid of them. I don't really know what to say, so I am sorry.
Contact the ASPCA or a respective Animal Protection Society, they will help you sort out things... you know it's not normal to have so many animals, they suffer, and YOU suffer too.
Do you have any family members that would help you take care of them? I'm an animal lover, too! If you have any questions feel free to ask. You can email me @ ldbush5283@sbcglobal.net
The local chinese will usually buy cats for $3-5. Dogs go for $8-15 depending on size. Let the birds fly away, take the fish to a local pond, eat the ducks and chickens, Purina will pick up the horses to make dog food, sell the cows, make winter clothing out of anything left that is furry.
I love Animals To. But I Only Have One Cat. Named Mollykay. She Is Very Spoiled . And Very Beutiful.
you should give few of them to some one from your neighbours %26amp; tell them to adapt them

hope my idea works!if not sorry:-(
I mean no offense, but at 200 pets you can no longer easily manage, you have crossed the line from animal lover to a person who needs counselling.

Collecting ANYTHING to a point that it is beyond your means or comfort level, but doing it anyway, suggests a psychological disorder that should be looked at.

Please be honest with yourself. They may offer you unconditional love, but can you offer each of them the care, love and respect they should be getting from their owner? At 200, if there is ANY illness, it will sweep through the group. Skin and respiratory problems are common in these settings, as well as fleas, ticks, and a wide variety of germs.

This is not healthy for either you or them.

Even if you do not seek counselling, seek help in caring for your pets. Surely organizations exist in your area that can help you find other homes for at least some of these pets?

I wish you the best- but again I suggest that seeking counselling will help deal with the other issues as well.
If your pets are specifically predominately feline you may have a disorder related to them. Somewhere on the web there is a record of a particular malady that is caused by a parisite that lives in the intestinal tract of a cat. Mice (rodents) given the problem will be attracted and unafraid of cats.

I can not imagine how much finances (income) time and energy 200 pets take unless they are all something like fish(or maybe an Ant Farm) I am actually praying you have not got 200 mamals unless you run a carefully maintained and staffed Zoo.

Please contact someone immediately for help if you love your pets and can not take care of them in a hygenic and loving way
I would suggest getting in contact with a rescue group you can trust. Right now they might be able to supply a volunteer to help with the care. Then they could help find good homes for some of your loved ones.

The important things is your age and the number of pets you have. I'm sure you know, that if something happens to you, and you don't have something in place that many of your pets won't have a happy ending.

If you can't find a rescue group, you might wish to check with the scouts. You might make a nice 'badge' project. ;-)

Starting now, while you have time, will insure that each one has a happy loving home.

BTW I have a funny feeling you have a nice assortment, 200 sounds like a lot, but if some are herps, fish and rodents the number can give a false illusion. I did notice you didn't say I have 200 cats %26amp; dogs. ;-)

Good luck!
WELL I THINK YOU SHOULD GIVE,SELL,OR LET SOME GO!YEA I'M AN ANIMAL LOVER TOO,BUT THE BEST THING TO DO IS AT LEAST LET SOME GO CAUSE AFTER A WHILE YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SURVIVE CAUSE YOUR BUYING ANIMAL FOOD.WELL I HOPE YOU FIND A HOME OR SOMETHING FOR THEM,GOOD LUCK:-)
Try and get and kid in the hood.Give him or her a couple of bucks to help you.
I like JimP's response. But who the h*** has 200 pets???!!!?!?!?!!!?
i too am an animal lover. but i cannot see how you can keep 200 pets. what are they insects? it must cost an arm and a leg to look after them whatever they are. i just hope they're not elephants.
Do you realize that this is a mental health problem?

I've never met any cat ladies that were sane.

I'm not one to talk though. I'm getting older too and I have 50+ antique cars and only one license.

If I ignore them for a few months they won't die. Well some of the batteries do.
I think that it is one thing to have the capacity to have 200 pets, but often times people do not. I hope that you live on a great deal of acerage or have many small pets. I'm not trying to be mean, but you should be careful. Even if you are taking care of your animals correctly there are people who will call the humane society on you. . Someone once called the humane society because I had a very old horse with sway back and they thought we were just riding him too much.

I would say you first need to stop getting more animals. I would then see if friends or family would be willing to take an aminals. As a last resort I would take them to a shelter.
Ask friends and family if you have an animal that they love and would want. That way you know that they are in a good home and can visit them often. Also, try putting an ad in the newspaper for the most time consuming animals.
WOW that is alot of pets get rid of some of them i bet that is a whole lot to take care of.

yes

My husband died 6 years ago, I don't care for another relationship. We didn't have any children.

About a year after he died, I started feeding stray cats, finally got one to come in who had run away from abuse. She then had 3 kittens. I don't think they are spoiled, we are lucky to have each other.

Yes, I spoil my dog so bad that my mother questions me, lol. I just feel closer to animals than people. I dunno, maybe some day I will have children, but right now, I am a puppy mom!!!
Yes, I have lots of pets, no kids. I treat them very very well and they are all spoiled rotten.
i dont have either. if i had to choose, i would choose pets. they are just more understanding i think, and not so much hastle as kids
I want to have kids, but I think there are people who preffer animals because it楹搒 a less expensive choice and you don楹搕 have to take so much care of a pet as you would whit a child!
Thats an interesting question! I do know someone who has one of those kids that you could only describe as a right royal Philistine. I'm left assuming that he would prefer to have jaws as a pet in his swimming pool!
Pets are alot less responsibility than children. Children are alot more rewarding than a dog will ever be. Before kids I got myself two dogs who I used to treat like kids. Unfortunately once the kids were born the dogs got the back burner.
My husband and I don't plan to have a kid for a few more years, so our dog is the only thing that depends on us. We don't call ourselves his mom and dad and we don't dress him up or anything. When he doesn't listen, we can put him outside for awhile.
a) I'm too old to have kids.

b) Pets are much less expensive. Ain't no pet gonna be wantin' college tuition when I'm a geezer wantin' to be retirin'.

c) When the pet is all used up, you pack it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Can't do that with a kid.

d) My cat was honestly glad to see me every single day. Cain't say that about a kid, can you?

Nah, I never spoiled the cats rotten. I just let 'em run loose.

That's a hard question to answer. It all depends on the person and family who are taking care of the pets. For me and my mom we can only afford to take care of one pet at a time. My aunt, uncle, and cousin own 1 bird, 2 dogs, and 3 cats. They take good care of each one of them and can afford to take care of them. As long as they can afford many pets and will be able to take care of each of them and give them a loving home there is no reason for them to have many pets.

So how many does an average American own it can vary. I'd say usually 1 or 2 but some can have more than 2.

How much do you spend on your pets each month?

2009-12-29T01:55:00.001-08:00

On average- about how much do you spend on your pets each month? I just got a puppy in January and I have been spending money on him left and right! between vet bills, food, toys, doggie day care, training, etc. I have probably spent over $1500! More than $150/month. I am hoping this will slow down soon or I will be broke!

How much do you spend on your pets each month?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I have 2 dogs:

Monthly-

Food: $50

Grooming: $50

Treats: $25

Vet: $40 (based on last year's vet bills divided by 12)

Miscellaneous: $20

How much do you spend on your pets each month?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

im only 14, but on my dog i buy her toys and different little things here and there, but my parent are vets so we get her food and "vet bills" free. we trained her ourselves so no training classes. she is a very well-behaved poodle! i would say the most we spend on her would be grooming, poodles have very high grooming needs. also whenever we vacation somewhere that she can't go, we board her at Animal Barn.

im not sure about the exact price though.

i pay for my gerbils' things though, they are all my responsibility! i buy them food, treats, things to chew on, toys, and bedding. i change their bedding about twice a month so i always have a few bags handy. the main things im usually buying for them are bedding and food.

don't worry any new pet is always expensive at first, it should go down soon :)
I have five dogs so I don't even want to guess what it costs me per month with the food, vet and grooming.

Your situation will get better soon. The dog has had all his shots, you've bought all the things you needed to have for him, from here on out it should be just the yearly vet visits, doggy day care and food.

I always thought that no matter what mine cost me it was a small price to pay for a healthy, well behaved, lifetime companion!
Lets see. I have three cats and a bird. The bird is pretty cheap since I already have toys and bird food is only maybe $5-$10 every couple of months. The cats on the other hand are a bit more expensive. The food costs probably $20 a month and litter is about $15. But I had to get my kitten fixed and licensed a few months ago and that was $80, then she got an eye infection and had to go to the vet, $50. I probably spend about $1000 or more a year on my pets. But you know what? They're totally worth it. I can't imagine my life without them.
I have 3 mules

1 donkey

1dog

3 cats

1 goat

I could have a mansion without them, but they are priceless to me.
I have 2 dogs, a 75lb Viszla mix and a 15lb Chi/terrier mix,

On average between food, toys, snacks and factoring in the heartworm probably less than 50 bucks a month. I shop at Costco! Puppies are more expensive though, they take a lot more care. Thier shots are $50 each once a year and the Heartworm is $40-60 every 6 months.

I also have a 50 gallon saltwater tank, 2 horses and a donkey so on average a month.... yikes! I don't want to think about that number! Something always comes up and one of them needs something! So worth it, I love them all!
When you first get them it is really expensive. I can only caculate it yearly. I have 2 small dogs that weigh less than 7 lbs each. For shots, neutering/spaying (just once of course), dog food, pig ears, heart worm and flea treatments. Its about 1000 a year. I buy a 30lb. dog food for about 35 to 40 bucks but it last me 2 months. I also get a discount from my vet for being w/ them for so long.

And as far as dog training. I watch a lot of dog whisper on t.v.

Why do parents still buy the children pets at Christmas when they know the novelty will wear off by

2009-12-29T01:54:00.002-08:00

i Know some kids will love and look after their pets but you hear so often about dumped animals.

Why do parents still buy the children pets at Christmas when they know the novelty will wear off by new year?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

No clue. Some parents just want to give their children whatever they want. They don't seem to care about the well being of the animal.

Personally, if I had children and they wanted a pet for the holidays, the ONLY reason I would get one, is if I wanted that pet myself, and I knew it would have a permanent home with me.

Why do parents still buy the children pets at Christmas when they know the novelty will wear off by new year?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

false hope they shall survive
Because they are stupid, unthinking, cruel people who treat animals not as LIVING BEINGS but as toys for amusement.
So...you think that all the thick and stupid parents have somehow died off during the year?

Not as sorry as I am!
Because the kid pleads and begs, and promises they'll care for it..

I know of many breeders who don't breed during the festive season to reduce the amount of unwanted pets.

I'm one of the kids who want a pet for Christmas, and everywhere I've searched aren't breeding for Christmas.
Because they want the child to learn responsibility, and it's the parent who wants the pet, and they really believe the child wants the pet.
They don't realize pets are a resonibility. Children most likely will not take care of animals. They have "lives" and are too focused on other things. Honestly, I have not been mature until this past year (I'm seventeen now) to take care of my pets.
I work in a pet shop and its not just at christmas that the novelty of pets wears off. I have had 2 different families practically buy every pet I have at some stage only to return it after a short space of time. I get phrases like "Well its boring, it doesnt do anything", I mean what the hell were they expecting, something to do the washing up !!!
I KNOW THIS ONE! When most people have children, it somehow sucks the brain cells outta 'em.

When my hubby and me are asked "why don't you have kids?", I tell them "we used to, but the dog %26amp; the cats were allergic to them". That question usually comes from new parents.

It is cruel to bring home puppies for Christmas, chicks and bunnies for Easter, etc. Unfortunately, they'll never learn.

No law against being an idiot.
Sadly, many people continue this proven mistake of a tradition because they are trying to over-compensate for feelings of being inadiquate parents because alot of them hold down one or two jobs and they feel like they are not meeting their childrens need for love and companionship. They really are not trying to do a bad thing but as we all know that any home where the responsible party (parent) is already taxed for time and trying to make ends meet is no place for a poor puppy (or kitty or gerble or anything with a pulse) to try and make a start in life.

They only thing that we can do is try and poin t this out tot them without being harsh or over critical because it is human nature to rebel especailly when people feel that their character is being put to the test.

~Tyed~
Because a lot of people are stupid.
Robert C does have a point BUT some parents just don't learn and still go a head and buy pets for children for xmas.

I breed rabbits and I make sure I don't have any rabbits for sale around xmas and easter, because of this reason.

do you have The Sims 2? the original one? you HAVE TO have it to play any of the expansion packs.

Is there something wrong with the sims2 pets or just my computer?

My friend and I were at my house and we installed sism2 and sims2 pets and were up all night having fun playing it on a brand spankin' new computer no custom content or anything.... suddenly just not a HUGE message popped up telling me about the application with terminate because of incompatable graphic cards or something, and the screen went weird (I don't even know how to describle) everything was blockish, sandstonish textured and the icons were enormous. WHat should we do my bff had the same problem (or at least similar) on her brand new computer too and if the game wasn't campatable with the card wouldn't it have alerted us sooner?? Should she said the game in and have send her a replacment or what??

The sims2 caused my other computer to totally crash after months, maybe years of working just fine and dandy, then it up and crashed one da and I lost EVERYTHING, The hard drive was fried and I couldn't even boot it up.

I was playing guildwars one time and the same thing happened i would either try to install the latest graphics card or i went to get my computer repaired and they found out my graphics card was just dusty :P but if neither of those work then im all out of ideas.

Is there something wrong with the sims2 pets or just my computer?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

yeah its your computer maby it is not the right windows you have or somthing like that!sorry hope you get it fixed!
Stop trying to install this infected software and you will have a computer that won't crash.
Sounds like your graphics card is incompatible. Where did you buy it? Hopefully best buy--give the geek squad a call.

It could be a problem with windows Vista--try right clicking and running the program as an administrator-- but I'm pretty sure you might need a new graphics card.
u must not have enough ram or memory in you graphic card
IT IS JUST YOUR COMPUTER.
You might need to purchase a new video card. Or you may need to update the drivers for your video card.

Is there a way to play the PC Sims 2 Pets without having the actual disk?

I havent played the Sims 2 (Pets) in a while, but decided to play it again today after taking a break from it for about a year.

After clicking on the desktop icon, my PC told me that I couldnt play Sims 2 without inserting the original disk.

I have been searching for the Sims 2 Pets disk now for hours, and still cant find it!

Is there a way of playing the game without having the CD?

I saw a coyote the other day. are they legal pets?

2009-12-29T01:53:00.002-08:00

Are they dangerous pets? I have an excellent Vet. etc, so medical care is no problem. Can they be purchased from a pet store?

I saw a coyote the other day. are they legal pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Wild animals should never be kept as pets. They are not happy, and can be dangerous to you and your neighbors.

That's why it is illegal in almost all areas.

I saw a coyote the other day. are they legal pets?

-(Myspace.com)

sure.... if you live on a reservation

I saw a coyote the other day. are they legal pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

no there wild animals
NO, they're not legal pets and YES, they're dangerous -- they're practically fearless and sometimes they carry rabies.

And no pet store that wants to keep its business licence would even consider selling them.
Here is a site that can help you figure out the CORRECT answer to your question:

http://www.animallaw.info/articles/dduse...

I STRONGLY suggest you USE it!
Ed coyotes can kill in in a second, are they dangerous pets?

let's ask the guy who got killed by one uh? who cares if you get a vet and get it shoot all that it will bit you and kill you and eat you alive talk about guy's best friend

don't get it
They are wild animals and cannot be domesticated, although mixed pups raised domestically sometimes make good pets. They are very adaptable to living around humans even as wild animals and it is rare that you would see one - they are very cryptic. They can be very dangerous, especially in groups, and can carry rabies.
no
thats like folks keeping bears wolves and tigers with all the training in the world thats still a wild critter asnd one day it might slip its leash and bite a child or a loved one let it roam and dont take it home it is home outside
it is not legal to own any wild animal without a state permit in most states allthough,my wife thinks she owns me,and keeps me in captivity
They are not a reliable animal. Even if you were able to buy one, you would be required to have a permit in addition to a correct enclosure. A coyote would not be well suited to living in a household situation like a dog. In the wild they are always in competition for place and resources. They would be doing the same thing in your household...not good. They should be left to zoos, mother nature,and wildlife sanctuaries.
you re weird because people have been saying to save the wildlife and now you are asking to keep something from the wild...

So no their not legal pets weir one.
1st of all, are they even considered pets??
My father found a coyote pup and raised it. He said she was one of the best dogs he owned. She never turned on him or became snippy in old age like most dogs have a tendency to. That was a long time ago and even though it was probably illegal even then, the laws weren't enforced like they are now. I'd look into the legality of it first. I doubt it is legal but, I could be wrong.

Why do ppl have pets?(I might be a bit crazy..)?

2009-12-29T01:52:00.001-08:00

I know ppl need a companion and all but i think its abusing...some ppl think im crazy i know!But i don't like seeing dogs and cats as pets! I mean don't u think they should be in the wild?running free?doing what ever they need to survive?

Why do ppl have pets?(I might be a bit crazy..)?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Aside from the obvious benefits of being vaccinated, well-fed, and living in loving homes, there are a lot of reasons why all dogs and cats should not be allowed to go feral. Feral dogs run in packs and they are more destructive and dangerous than wild animals. The wild animals tend to get blamed for the livestock they kill and the damage they cause as well. It's very likely a pack of feral dogs would also attack humans given the opportunity. It would be a nightmare.

Why do ppl have pets?(I might be a bit crazy..)?

-(Myspace.com)

Well, if I were my 13 year old cat, would I rather be lounging on the couch like she is now, in a patch of sun, with bowls of clean food and water nearby....

or....

Outside with the other bazallions of "wild" animals, digging through trash cans, and fending for my life with cars zooming by, being chased by animal control?

Hmm.....tough decision.

Why do ppl have pets?(I might be a bit crazy..)?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

you're not crazy, that's just you're opinion. but domesticated pets should be pets, bcuz they can't survive in the wild. dogs are the domesticated form of wolves and such. maybe certain animals might could survive out there, but very few, but it really depends. if you give them a lot of love, then they'd rather be with you, then out in the wild with no shelter. i know my dog, Zoe, loves her life, and i can tell by her face, and the way she treats us. we once let her outside to see what she would do(she's an indoor dog) and she was barking as loud as she could, and begging to get back in. that was our test, and now we know she will love us unconditionally!!
I don't think you crazy - just very one-sided in your view of the situation.

I live in the Northeast - we have very cold winters and tons of street traffic. Every day I see animals dead on the side of the road or injured from being attacked by other animals. They struggle to find food (dogs don't hunt - they are scavengers and would be subjected to rifling through trash cans for food), they are exposed to the elements, exposed to diseases (unless they get vaccinations to prevent them) which can cause illness, death, spread diseases.

Does that REALLY sound BETTER to you than having a roof over your head, a lap to curl up on, a reliable source of food, medical care and love? If it does, maybe you are crazy.
Wel let me first say no you arent crazy I know many people who feel the same way as you.

Personally I think that by keeping these pets humans are helping them in a sense. Many that are weak or injured wouldn't stand a chance out in the wild.

I agree with you sort of like I don't agree with dog shows or outfits for pets just to make them look cute and/or show off that you can afford them. I also do not agree with petshops which usually mistreat pets and keep them in small enclosiors.

I do agree with shelters that keep weak or injured pets or even just pets that have no where to stay.

Anyway there are many different reasons why people keep pets, I have a great aunt whose husband died and she lives alone because she won't give up her house which has been in the family for 15 generations. My aunt often got lonely so she adopted a retired racing greyhound which would have been killed otherwise. She is alot happier now.
well pets also need homes i mean some dogs or cats could live in the wild but when your at home and snug as a bug in a rug during a thunder storm those "happy wild animals are out in the cold"

i would much rather have a happy dog in captivity then a dog thats abused desised and starving free honestly think of the stray dogs you see do they look happy and healthy to you pet are bred to be cared for by humans that love them if you think its wrong for people to have pets just dont get any yourself dont misjudge us that do have pets.

i have two birds, and two dogs we love them very much the dogs have our whole hous and a large fenced in back yard will allthe time acces through doggie doors

the truth is that dogs and cats and pets were bred or desighned to be cared for by humans

thats just plain fact we made them that way if people have a problem with seeing animals that are actually happy with life in captivity they are seeing things the wrong way

i will agree with you that animals that are unhappy in captivity should be free but you think not of the poor strays thay want and need nurchuring
well i have two dogs and I consider them as my kids ... i mean they are my babies. but certain animals can't be out in the wild they never adapt that inner wild side and end up ... well you know. but some people who can't have kids have pets insteads like myself. but i personally don't consider my animal "pets" ... they are my kids.

some people though have "pets" it's the joy of someone waiting for you always and protecting you ... watching over you. like mine for example whenever i get sick they won't leave my side. but eh some people are MEAN and have animals and keep them outside 24/7 and treat them like crap. but hey everyone is different.
The steady increased breathing pattern of a cat/dog/rabbit/horse acknowledging you're return home ....no matter how bad preceding events were before arrival.

Wagging tail, grining teeth, pulled back ears in joy.

Kiss lick rub smile of a pet is very special. Especially with single sick depressed lonely cancer laiden medicated less fortunate people. Joy and love is contagious jump in and adopt a pet.

Hospitals prisons mental wards encourage more supervised pet visits every year
well some pets love 2 b wit their owners bcuz they treat them right ... i remeber wen i was giving my dog away and it wont want 2 leave the house .... and it would start crying ...t hats shows that it liked were it was and it was happy.. animal abuse is when the animal is not treated right and it is unhappy.. so i dont think ur crzy...its ur opinion but u should think bout it 4 a while .... if i hav a pet that wants 2 escape from me bcuz its not happy than that sounds like animal abuse....
domesticated dogs and domesticated cats don't belong in the wild. look at what is happening with the feral cats. they were not ment to be running wild it is too dangerous and it screws up nature even more than the over developing of humans. USe your head, or have you been listening to PETA or something? They are the crazy ones, which automatically makes anyone who supports them equally crazy. Dogs and cats, dogs especially were created for human companionship and for them to do jobs for humans not to "run free" and die trying to fend for themselves. Sorry but sitting in someones warm home with someone to love them and care for them and give them food isnt exactly torture. Use your head, you set these animals out in the wild and they are pretty much dead. THAT would be "abuse" as you put it.
I don't think my cat would like that very much. She seems quite comfortable laying on her special blanket on the couch with the heat turned up to 76.
I am disabled and live alone my dog babe gives me companionship and love and a reason to get up and go in the morning

What is the minimum number of minutes that it will take for all of the pets to safely be together in

2009-12-29T01:51:00.003-08:00

A Grundo, a Gnorbu, a Gelert, and a Grarrl need to walk from Sakhmet to Qasala during a really bad heat wave. The heat is so bad, it's not possible to cross the open desert without some sort of shade. Fortunately, they have one umbrella. Unfortunately, however, only a maximum of two pets at a time can fit under the umbrella. The Grundo can cross the desert alone in 20 minutes. The Gnorbu can make the crossing alone in 16 minutes. The Grarrl can make the crossing alone in 8 minutes. And the Gelert can make the crossing in 4 minutes. Note that when two pets are making the crossing, they must do so at the pace of the slower pet!

What is the minimum number of minutes that it will take for all of the pets to safely be together in Qasala?

What is the minimum number of minutes that it will take for all of the pets to safely be together in Qasala?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

answer is 48 minutes

solution

First Grarrl and Gelert will go together.. it will take 8 minutes

Gelert will come back with the umbrella.. it will take 4 minutes

Now, Gnorbu and Grundo will go together.. it will take 20 minutes

Grarrl will bring the umbrella back... it will take 8 minutes.

Finally, Gelert and Grarrl will go together.. it will take 8 minutes..

So totally it will take 48 minutes ( 8 + 4 + 20 + 8 + 8)

Please go through the reply properly and u wil find it right.

Do Lizards make good pets? If so what kind of Lizard?

2009-12-29T01:51:00.000-08:00

I have a love for Lizards and would love to own my own. I would like to know if lizards make good pets, and if so what kind of lizard would be best?

Thank you for any useful input.

Do Lizards make good pets? If so what kind of Lizard?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Lizards

As a rule, only certain lizards are good for beginners. Many species have fairly complex care requirements for heating, lighting and diet. Some are quite delicate and difficult to care for, and others get quite large and aggressive. The are a few species that are quite hardy and easy to tame and these are the best for beginners.

Lizards for Beginners

Leopard Geckos - have no special ultraviolet lighting required and relatively easy to tame and handle. Some other geckos are good choices for beginners too, such as crested geckos, fat tailed geckos, and house geckos (although house geckos are usually too fast to be good for handling).

Bearded Dragons

Blue Tongued Skinks

Lizards for Beginners

Bearded Dragons

Blue Tongued Skinks

Lizards Not Recommended for Beginners

Iguanas (large, sometimes aggressive and complicated to care for properly)

Chameleons (very specific care requirements and easily stressed)

Do Lizards make good pets? If so what kind of Lizard?

-(Myspace.com)I just want to say thanks to all that have helped, you all have very good knowledge and helped me a great deal. So thanks guys!! Report It

Do Lizards make good pets? If so what kind of Lizard?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

Hey I am glad I could help. I have turtles and it is a constant job. Cleaning the tank!!! lol Report It

Yeah, lizards make excellent pets.

A really nice one to check out is the Eyelash Gecko, also called a Crested Gecko. They have a lifespan of around 10 years, are super easy to take care of, and are really cute!

You'll see what I mean. They also don't get too big, like bearded dragons or iguanas, and are fairly resiliant to illness (unlike many species')

The only thing is - lizards do not show affection. You can't expect it from them. They are still nice to have around though.
lizards when kept in captivity have shorter lifespans than in the wild - this is particularly true of the smaller ones like Anoles.

so captivity isnt so good for them as it might be for you.

make sure you know what you are getting into they have LOTS of specific needs - tempature, humidity, lighting...food...

and many times they grow much bigger than you think so cages need to be big.
reptiles are fairly dirty, so it would be a lot of cleaning to help keep it up. Buying a lot of crickets for food, so you need to make sure your terrarium is secure up to so that the crickets don't escape. I had a Chameleon. You will also need a "hot rock" that it will like to rest on and keep warm (Remember they are cold blooded. That can make good pets, but they are a lot of work.
Personally i don't think they are half as much work as a cat or a dog, especially dogs, they don't generally need walking (some larger lizards benifit from roaming around a secure room now and then for the exercise) they don't poo in your garden, or make a lot of noise.

Its the initial set up that requires time, money and a lot A LOT of research.

I would suggest leo gecko's or bearded dragons (they don't get anywhere near as big as an iguana) for a started lizard. they are both fairly hardy, in reptile terms, although they still have very specific needs and requirements, do some google searches for care sheets, and see which one would suit your life style better.

And good luck, you will love owing reptiles. i do!
the best lizard to start off with is a lapard gekco they are not fast thare avrage life spand is 20+years they love to eat meal worms and crickets you can buy them at pet stors but i would not feed them out side bugs becuse of bug spry can baybe kill your pet
Check out the Bearded Dragon.They're really cool.They are one of the only reptiles that like to be handled sometimes and they are so fun.www.beardeddragon.org
i wouldnt say a lizard but an anphibian

look for newts... they aer easy to care for and they dont need much... just a tank with water but not filled up all the way because they can sometimes climb out........ but yeh tht is it really

look for either firebelly newts...

http://www.birdsinalaska.org/class/livin...

or an oregon newt!!

http://newt150.tripod.com/pics/chiko4.jp...

good luck!
i would recommend a crested gecko. they are so gentle and funny looking. i love making mine pose on my sisters doll house furniture it is sooooooooooo funny. i got a picture of him opening a refrigerator and looking in a mirror etc. they are very cheap to take care of they only eat baby food and crickets. they also don't need a lot of lighting.

Are shih-poos good pets?

2009-12-29T01:50:00.002-08:00

i want a small dog really bad are shih-poos good pets or is there another breed that would be be better

Are shih-poos good pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

it all depends on the dog. because it is a MUTT there is no breed standard to compare to. If you are planning on buying this remember it is not a breed - you should not need to pay hundreds of dollars for the "designer breed" - that is all crap. if you are looking for a mutt anyway, go to the local shelter to find one.

Are shih-poos good pets?

-(Myspace.com)

Most mutts are good dogs.

Shih poo is NOT a breed.

Are shih-poos good pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

I'm not sure what Shih-poos are but I have two Shih Tzus and they are great.
Shitzu?
depends on how well you take of it
do u mean those kind (i dont know how to spell it but it sounds like shitzu) those are small and ive never heard to shih-poos.
**** zu is an excellent dog or yorker but shih poos can sheet alot
No they yab bite by the way they yab all night this guy had one in italy i could of shot it we were going to bye a shotgun bb gun and shoot it or tie it up to a lamp post
Please don't support unethical "breeders" who produce these kinds of mixes.

Go to your local shelter...there are many wonderful small dogs there you can adopt and love
My wife has a shih-poo. That dog is 3, still not housebroken, and is very dominant. He also barks nonstop if you leave him alone outside to do his business, which drives me (and the neighbors) crazy. My beagle is quieter that that darn shih-poo. On the other hand, he can be very nice and loves attention.

Maybe try one of them robot dogs.
any dog is a good pet, it is bad owners not a bad pet!

Get a puppy from a good breeder and love it teach it and raise it right !! and GOTO THE VET when you have a problem NOT yahoo !!
As with all animals; a good pet depends on what you want from it, and it's temperament.

If you want a "good pet" I suggest you get fish for now.
There is nothing wrong with mixed breeds. I do have a problem with the crappy breeders that intentionally breed them. If you want a purebred , sure go to a reputable breeder or breed rescue. If you want a mix , try petfinder.com. There are several puggles, maltipoos, shih-poos , ect.... sitting in shelters.
Don't get an intentionally bred mutt that's sold at a purebred price. There's nothing wrong with mutts, just the BYBs that create them. Check your local pound or shelter; small breed dogs (purebred and mix) come in all the time.

Does the peticure really work well with pets?

2009-12-29T01:50:00.001-08:00

Just wondering if the product Peticure work as well as they describe with cutting, well basically filing down your pets nails without any pain. THanks!

Does the peticure really work well with pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Nail grinding is a great alternative for dogs who don't like to tolerate having their nails clipped. It doesn't hurt, though the sensation might feel a bit strange to a dog that isn't used to it or has had it done before. It could also be argued that grinding nails is healthier, with the grinding being able to get the nail shorter and more rounded, promoting good foot/pad health. The big plus with The Peticure is the covering over the rotary sander - it prevents hair from getting pulled into the sander (you only have to worry about this if you have a long-haired dog), and it significantly lowers the amount of dust put out from the nail that's being ground. The covering also has pre-sized holes that you put the nail in to help you prevent from quicking the nail, or going too short. I think that's really the big difference between The Peticure and, say, a plain old Dremel tool. Both work the exact same way. I personally use a cordless Dremel tool to grind dogs' nails and haven't had any problems with it. Peticure also makes just covers that will fit on Dremel tools for people who already have the tool but want the pluses of having the cover. Regardless, some dogs don't tolerate having their nails ground OR cut.

Do you celebrate your pets birthdays?

I was just wondering how many of you celebrate your pets birthdays and if so how far do you go? Do they get a cake, presents? Or do you just simply acknowledge that it's their birthday?

Do you celebrate your pets birthdays?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

We acknowledge our dog's birthday but we don't actually "celebrate" it. We might give him a special treat for his dinner, maybe.

Do you celebrate your pets birthdays?

-(Myspace.com)

no, but my sister does!! she tells me her poodle is my NEPHEW!!go figure

Do you celebrate your pets birthdays?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

HaHa. I do. He gets a present and we go to the park with a few of his "friends". HaHa...I can't believe I just admitted that.
Only on Christmas
yes i will do. my puppy is one in feb!
I told everyone to tell my dog happy anniversary thats about it..idk his bday i just know what day i got him from the shelter. have u ever watched the girls next door? bridget goes all out! she has parties for her pets...its not wierd, just shows how much she loves her pets.
My puppy is 8 months old right now. Her year birthday will be in May. I cant wait. I am going to have a party with a cake, and gifts and let her play outside all day long!!!
I get them a few toys and something they really like for their dinner.But no parties or cakes
of course you have to they are living and getting old just like us
Never have with my older cat, but we just got kittens in July, their b-day is coming up in May, and we're definitely having a family party!! They'll probably get some yummy food, Sheeba or some real turkey or chicken, a bowl of milk and lots of presents!!
aawww pets are so cute!! :) yeah i just acknowledge that it is their birthday and i take my puppy to pets mart and he goes to pick a new toyand a delicious snack!
My puppy had his first birthday in August. I didn't go crazy, but i bought some doggy treats and took him to the park. :) He's my baby, what can i say?
no i dont but my wifes grandmother does.... its nuts she gets a cake and decorates... she even ties baloons up outside house............
They get their shots and tags updated on their birthdays.
sometimes..... I'll give my dog a pup-cup (small cup of ice cream for dogs) if I remember it's her birthday. Nothing elaborate.
If I had one I would. And the farthest I would go is getting them presents that would make them look cute.
i always celebrate my german shepherd's birthday we got him when i was 4 or 5 and now he's turning twelve this year. He gets his own "doggy" presents, usually new toys and treats, and we do acknowledge it but other than that ... nothing big, just spend a lot of time with him, give him an nice extra long belly rub or something .
I only acknowledge with special treats, my mome makes a cake and had a party, very dumb if you ask me, to have the party!
yes i do i buy cupcakes for all of then when its one of there birthdays and the birthday doggie gets a two gifts one from me and when from the other animals.
Nope... I actually don't know exactly what day my dog was born. Even if I did I certainly would not go all out with cake and presents!
My kitties get a little cake and some new toys. (I don't have children and need to satisfy the mommy instinct)
Sorta. My malamute, Nikki, was born on New Years Eve. I buy her a new toy, and then I go celebrate. (This is absolutely true.) She also gets great food in the week before her birthday from all the leftover ham and stuff from Christmas.

I think she knows it's her special week.
I have a dog and two cats. I get them a new toy for their birthday and christmas and a treat. I don't give cake to them because I want to have them around for their next B-Day! Interesting question thanks!
Yes I do. If you celebrate pets birthday, it means you are giving them special love. Pets are so loving because they love us innocently and more than anyone human being. And for one day, that is on birthday, if we celebrate, it means we are expressing our love to pet and just for the Pet only. You can feel its glittering eyes, happiness. You can feel the God within you, is happy too.
Not the exact date of the birth but during their birth month. I usually buy the cats new toys and cat nip...Keeps them young.
Of course they are part of the family, I don't get crazy just get them a new toy and a treat.
I don't cause my dingo dog came here when he was already an adult so we don't know how old he is. He's young tho.
no...

dont know when her birthday is...
My husband and I celebrate guessed birthdays with my dogs. We adopted our dogs and really don't know their birthdays. But for birthdays I give them one present and a yummy dinner. But Christmas, oh yeah buddy, I love Christmas with my babies. They each have a stocking, they get individual presents. Like last year we bought them jackets and treats. I don't see anything wrong with it. But I guess I'm just weird.
YEAH! We usually get him a bone or chew toy or something.(is that weird?) He is now 3 yrs. old!

The afterlife and our pets....?

2009-12-29T01:49:00.003-08:00

What is your opinion about seeing our pets in the next life?

Are there any Biblical verses to prove whether or not, God would allow us to see them again?

I sincerely hope so, but I wonder what others think or know??

The afterlife and our pets....?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Indirectly there IS Biblical proof. In Rev. ch. 21, God promises a new heaven and a new Earth. Now, if you stop and think about that for a moment you immediately realize that a new earth without plants, animals, etc. is nothing but a big rock spinning in space. Not much of a reward, there!

So if God is true to His Word, the new earth will be populated with all the myriad lifeforms we see today and maybe some that have long been extinct. They'll all have glorified bodies and not need to prey on others. The lion will lie down with the lamb, etc.

Under such a scenario, I think it highly unlikely that a loving Father would fail to give us our precious babies, don't you?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

I think that we will be able to see our pets. I know I sure want to!
Most christians do not believe that animals have souls. Stupid really as I know some pretty nasty so called christians and I would rather save my dear old dog than one of them if it was a matter of life or death..Anyway, IF there is a heaven (and I doubt if there is) I would like to think that pets were happy running about in fields etc.

Its a nice thought, but in all honesty its better to remember a pet that had died with pleasant thoughts of all the happiness they had given you rather than worrying if you will see them or not when you have died. The christian church's views on animals not having souls is one reason why Im gald Im pagan, my dogs have never hurt anyone in their lives, unlike some christians :)
Many Christians say that since pets don't have souls, there's no heaven for them..

BUT (!!) the book of revelation shows that there are many animals (lions, eagles, etc) in heaven, so I can't really see any basis for saying that we may not see our pets. After all, they are God's creatures as well and they were created before man, right?
I don't think animal will be in Heaven. The Bible tells us that in Heaven, we will be praising God all the time. Animals are not capable of Praising God. On a side not, I have a relative that had to put down two of his dogs on the same day(he had 6 or 8), and made a reference to the dogs waiting for him "at the rainbow bridge". I had never heard of this before. I wonder if this is a reference to a doggy heaven-like area?
Only St Bernards go to heaven. :)

If God can resurrect a human, why wouldn't he be able to resurrect a dog or a cat?
WHEN MY KIDS WERE LITTLE, I USED TO READ THEM A BOOK CALLED "ALL ANIMALS GO TO HEAVEN". MY VERY DEAR FRIEND IS A MEDIUM/PSYCHIC WHO WAS READING MY NIECE OME DAY. HE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE READING AND SAID; DID YOUR CAT DIE? SHE STARTED CRYING AND SAID YES, HER CAT DID DIE THE NIGHT BEFORE. WELL, THE PSYCHIC TOLD HER THE CAT WAS CUDDLED UP NEXT TO HER!!!! SHE WAS SO HAPPY. ANIMALS HAVE SOULS TOO!!!!!
Anyone who has an animal will know they have a spirit like any of us and can feel emotions like we can. To say that is foolishness. I am Wiccan and I know I will see mine again when I cross over.

RAINBOW BRIDGE POEM

Author unknown

Just this side of Heaven, before the Pearly Gates

Is a sunny meadow where your pets can rest and wait.

It's where the slanting sunshine meets the highest clouds,

A floating bridge of rainbows, so far above the ground.

This is where we wait for you, if we have gone before,

Just out of sight of mortals, just outside heaven's door;

Here we play in sunshine, frolic free from age or pain,

And anticipate the joyful time when we will meet again.

Every pet that's lived on Earth can bide his time, can wait,

For that special person to come walking to the Rainbow Gates,

And everyone who's loved a pet will find them safely here,

Frolicking on Rainbow Bridge till your own time draws near.

One day there comes a feeling, a trembling in the air,

And then we know it's time to run and come to meet you there,

Faster and faster on that day, across Rainbow Bridge we'll run,

To meet the humans we love best, come walking in the sun.

Alas my friend you cannot pass across Rainbow Bridge with me,

But when your time for glory comes, waiting for you I'll be -

Then together we will walk upon a path of glittering light,

No more to suffer, nor to part, but to live forever side by side.

Every pet that's lived on Earth can bide his time and wait

Until together with his person he goes through those Pearly Gates,

And everyone who's loved a pet, you'll find them waiting here,

Safe and sound on Rainbow Bridge till your own time draws near.
I believe that God will provide us with whatever brings us peace. and if that means we have our pets then so it is.

Have a great day.
Hate to break this to you, but once you've flushed your dead goldfish down the bog you'll never see it again.

Is it legall to have chickens as pets in San Diego? PLZ REED*****?

2009-12-29T01:49:00.001-08:00

In science class we are laying eggs and we were going to give them out as pets if we were allowed, I NEED ADVICE FAST!!$$$*******************************...

Is it legall to have chickens as pets in San Diego? PLZ REED*****?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Generally speaking, chickens and other farm animals are not allowed within city limits. There are a few exceptions, but one complaining neighbor can lead to lengthy legal battles and more problems than a chicken is worth.

It's best to find a rural area where you can give away the chickens. You can usually find a farm that is more than willing to take in a few extra chickens, and (from personal experience) will even agree not to eat them.

Is it legall to have chickens as pets in San Diego? PLZ REED*****?

-(Myspace.com)

I would think it depends on where you live in SD. My granparents live in Lakeside and they have horses and use to have chickens and the neighbor across the street has lots of chickens and roosters. I would check with the city and see though. I know that you all have a lot of codes and stuff that we dont have in Oklahoma. Also if you live in an apartment you would have to ask your landlord or see if there is a no pets policy. If you live with your parents then you would have to ask them. but over all you will have to see what codes and stuff you would need to be updated for in order to keep a chicken and see if where you live they are allowed. Also you have to keep in mind the neighbors. The smell can be horrible and if you have a rooster they crow constantly (or at least my grandmas neighbor's rooster does when I'm trying to sleep in) Well thats the only advice I would say. Good luck

Werewolf in Sims 2 Pets for the PC?!?

2009-12-29T01:49:00.000-08:00

What atracts the Werewolf in the Sims 2 Pets for PC and how do you become a Werewolf? Thank you so much!

Werewolf in Sims 2 Pets for the PC?!?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

To become a werewolf, first you have to put a lot of trees and shrubs on your lot so that a wolf can come along. You'll know it's a wolf cause it'll have glowing yellow eyes. If you use the cheat "boolprop testingCheatsEnabled true" (as typed) you can just shift + click the mailbox and command that a wolf visits. Then you become real good friends with the wolf and sooner or later, it should nibble on the Sim and he or she will become a werewolf.

Hope This Helped. :-)

Werewolf in Sims 2 Pets for the PC?!?

-(Myspace.com)well it is true that you need a lot of trees but you dont have them become friends a better and faster way is to have your sim be mean to the wolf and then it will probably bite your sim faster. to return them you call the nanny and tell her that you want her potion. hope this helps!!

Do pekapoos make good pets?

2009-12-29T01:48:00.003-08:00

My friend has one and now i am thinking if I should get one. They are really cute and small but are they good pets? The qualities I am looking for are small, easy to train, and lovable.... If you don't think they are, can you tell me why not, before suggesting something else?

Do pekapoos make good pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I'm sure they are good pets. I have a Pekingese which I love. They are very regal and independent. They can be a tad hard to train if you don't know what you're doing. I've never seen a pekapoo in person, so I can't tell you what their temperments are like.

Do pekapoos make good pets?

-(Myspace.com)

A "pekapoo" is a mutt. It is impossible to predict what the traits of a mutt will be. However, it is likely that they will be a cross between the two breeds that the parents were. By the way, what the **** is a pekapoo. Pekingese/poodle mix?

Do pekapoos make good pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

if this type of dog fits your lifestyle then it will be a good pet for you. All dogs have diff. personalilties though.

also if it's one of those "designer" dogs, it' just a mutt. Dont buy in to the newest "trend". While you are buying mutts for 400$ mutts are being put to sleep because no one will adopt!!

got to www.petfinder.com

I am sure you will find plenty of cross breeds in your area!
my brother has one. he is the sweetest thing ever. there over bite is sooooo cute!!
"Designer dogs" are mutts. Crossbreeding occasionally screws them up in the brain and they are stupid. A lady I know has a female 6 month old maltese poodle (malti-poo) from a pet store that pees all over her ethan allen inspired home. It loves white rugs but not the backyard. They've tried everything!

If you want an easy to train dog, you should look at where you breed falls on the list of most intelligent dogs. Here are the top 15:

1. Border Collie

2. Poodle

3. German Shepherd

4. Golden Retriever

5. Doberman Pinscher

6. Shetland Sheepdog

7. Labrador Retriever

8. Papillion

9. Rottweiler

10. Australian Cattle Dog

11. Pembroke Welsh Corgi

12. Miniature Schnauzer ***My favorite!***

13. English Springer Spaniel

14. Belgian Tervuren

15. Schipperke

The pekingese is number 74.

Remember that even a mix of smart breeds will not make a smart dog. My mom has a german shepherd/lab mix that also cannot grasp the idea of peeing outside. She's a dog ditz.

Do horses make good pets?

2009-12-29T01:48:00.000-08:00

i love horses and i know i'll probably not be able to get one til i'm 18 but i wanna know if they make good pets and if they cost a lot and all that kinda stf

Do horses make good pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Yes they are very exspenvie but they are soooo sweet. They also require a lot more work than other animals.

Do horses make good pets?

-(Myspace.com)

All pets would cost a lot, I say that none of them are 'cheap'.

If you think about it carefully, a horse is actually very costly themselves, their food, supplies, etc.

Do horses make good pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

Horses make great pets there so easy to bond with, My horse is my bestest friend, but they can coast alot if ur goin to board them my board was 200 a month then we had to pay for the farrier and vet and my barn wasnt even that nice no indoor arena not even a sand arena and we were outside board and now ive moved to a huge indoor arena with big sand ring and stuff and like indoor board is 350 a month then plus vet and farrier so it can be coasty but i think its worth it :D
I have 2 horses - yes, they cost alot. Not only food ($75+ per horse per month), but worming every other month ($10/per horse), shots twice a year ($100/horse) and dental once a year ($300/horse). If you have to board your horse at a facility, that can start at $250/month per horse. Than if a horse gets sick, you're really in for it! My vet charges $75 just to show up - then the cost goes up from there. My horse hurt his back and it's cost me about $1,000 so far, also I couldn't ride him for 3 months. One bottle of "miracle pain reducing MSM lotion" was $95. Please don't get me wrong - I love my horses, I live for my horses, they are loving gentle and kind. I can now ride my horse for 20 minutes 3-4 times a week and I'm back in heaven. Some horses are not affectionate, some are. They take alot of time, money and attention. In my opinion, if you can afford it - get a horse. During the time I couldn't ride my horse and he was put on stall rest for his back, I taught him tricks, like giving me kisses, hugs and to pick up his feed bin and carry it over. I have them at my house and have the time to do this. You may consider leasing a horse during the summer for a couple months to see if you enjoy them as much as you think, this way it's kind of a "try-out" period for you and not as expensive as owning one year round.
yes but you need room and time to take care of them and they eat alot of food and hay and grass and they make alot of manure
Horses don't make good pets. They make great partners and friends but they take so much special knowledge that they aren't for people who don't have that knowledge.

But... since it looks like you've got time before you can have a horse you've got time to aquire that knowledge.

Depending on the type of riding you want to do the horse can be very expensive or not expensive at all! Up keep is expensive. It costs every bit as much to keep a horse as it does to buy and drive a car. Sometimes more.

Start ;your education off by reading all you can and when you can take lessons at a good lesson barn where they will teach you how to care for a horse as well as how to ride.
horses aren't pets they're a lifestyle. they are very expensive and time consuming. if your not 100% dedicated please reconsider its not fair to the horse. i've had horses since i was 7.
yes

because u casn ride them

but it's a lot of responsibility
Horses are extremely expensive to keep and are a lot of work. A lot of people don't realize how many years it takes to really understand horse care and riding. But if you are willing to commit, they are amazing partners and best friends. Depending on where you live depends on how much upkeep will cost. In the northeast US full board alone costs between $500 and $2000 per month on average, and that doesnt take into account all the other things you need.
yes horses are lovable pets
Except for miniatures I would not call a horse a pet.

They are something different. Something MORE. But not a pet. People who think of them as pets have a bad habit of spoiling them. I do not like dealing with spoiled horses, they are dangerous.

I love horses and my horses love people (including me), but not all horses do.
well, horses need alot of space to run around in and they cost alot of money so if you have enough, try your luck!
wonderful pets better than anything i wish i had one!
They are probably one of the most expensive pets you can have. But if you have the money, the are so worth it. There is also a lot of time invovled in having a horse, really think about this before you make a decision for you and the horse.
they do! if i told you that they don't cost as much as you think, then i'd be lyin to ya.
I wouldn't exactly call a horse a 'pet', they're not like hamsters, you cant feed them then ignore them and only occasionally pet them. Horses are a lot of work and are very expensive. They need to be checked on about once a day to check for injuries etc. and they need exercise and enrichment. I would suggest taking riding lessons (if you don't already) because if you aren't going to ride the horse what will do with him? Remember the costs too-tack can be very expensive,covers, feed, grazing, boarding fees if you a boarding, facilities to use if you are riding etc.
By pet, if you mean just standing in a yard, then...no. Horses require constant attention and exercise. They certainly do cost a lot. Try a mini horse as a pet. They cost much less, as they don't require a lot of space and food, but they might need a companion to keep them company. :-)
Pets in general are great %26amp; require a lot of time and attention. You do not want to let the pet you obtain feel neglected, or not properly cared for. Having a proper setting %26amp; living zone for your pet is needed. You can find great information on having a horse as a pet at the two sources below.
Where do i start lol. HORSE ARE VERY EXPENSIVE! You can ride them and they are awesome reasearch is the most important thing. REASEARCH!
ok I am not going to go all out in all that stuff but trust me Horses are a lot more work then just having a "pet'! Most of them cost a lot, if you really want to get one I would look for a barn nearby and take lessons and help take care of the horses and then you will be more familar with them. Good luck!
You should never begin by just buying a horse. By that route, they are terrible pets. You should start by beginning lessons, just to see if the interest is there. After a few years of that, and whenever your trainer thinks you are ready, you may consider leasing. Leasing doesn't have all of the commitment and cost of buying, but it does have all of the benefits. Then, once you have leased for at least a year, and you are financially capable, you may consider buying. But NEVER just go out and buy a horse. It is the worst possible path you can take and never ends well.
No! I'm sorry but if you are looking for a pet, please do us all a favor and get a dog or something. I have seen way too many "pet" horses and they are usually lawn decorations that eat alot. It would be pointless because as an 18 year old there is no way you would have enough time to care for it by yourself, plus they are expensive and honestly you would not like cleaning up after an animal you are just keeping as a pet. The reward for the good care of horses is the bond between horse and rider. So unless you have a small fortune, a stablemate for your horse, a few hours a day to spend freely, patience, and lessons on riding, a horse is not a good option for you.

What is the name(s) of your pets who have passed on?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

oh boy ... i have had so many much loved pets in my life time i'd be writing forever .. but a shortened list would be...

1.) Scruffy- a stray terrior cross that adopted my family before i was born and who died when i was about three...

2.)Buster- a lovely old queensland heeler that we had for about 17 years

3.) Nicky-whoop-- a stray cockerspaniel who adopted us ( her name came about because initially we kept telling her to Nicky-Whoop which means GO AWAY)

4.)Blackie - a Black hen I used to carry around in a red bucket before i started school.

5.) Jinx - a cat who died from feline enteritis :(

6.) Trixie- an australian sily terrier cross // my first VERY OWN DOG :)

7.) Brett - a pet lamb that grew up and became a cantankerous nasty ram

8.) Timmy - a black and white cat I bought at a school fete for 30 cents ... and he became the reason why the school brought in a rule that said a child could only purchase a kitten/puppy if they had their parents with them LOL

9.) Floyd- a blue heeler another stray that adopted me in my final year at school .. and then when i met my future husband the dog adopted him too.....We had floyd for about 14 years

10.) Ben the tabby cat... he was a lovely cat but had health issues and we had to have him put to sleep .. I planted a daisy bush over him and refer to it as Ben the Daisy Bush.

11.) Rusty .a red heeler cross.. she was the pup of my father-in-law's dog .. and I held her the first day she was born .. she was a beautiful dog .. a little nippy but when we had our daughter she became her protector and when our daughter was a little older , her *BEST FRIEND* . She passed away after eating rat bait and it completely broke our hearts .. she had been to the vet and we were hoping she would recover .. she was out in the laundry and came into us in the loungeroom .. walked up to both my husband and I , licked out hands , walked back into the laundry and layed down and died .. :( it was as if she mustered all her strength to say goodbye.

12.) Flash- a dingo-X ... another dog that adopted us... she was a loose cannon really at first as she was terribly jealous of Floyd and Rusty and as they became older she would attack them at any opportunity ... we kept them apart .. BUT when they passed away .. she came into her own element and really became one of the best dogs I have ever come across... She was never fond of other people .. always a little wary .. but she and my terminally ill father bonded ... Flash passed away TOTALLY unexpectedly on mother's day 2001 ... and EXACTLY a week later my father also passed away .. It was as if Flash went ahead to be *there* to be waiting to greet and comfort him....

there have been other cats .. and rabbits and guinea pigs and gold fish .. but that will drive you all mad

As we live in the country, and we're the biggest animal lovers, we've had so many pets. It would have taken me a long time to list all my fantastic animals, so I have merely put down the pets I was closest too and most attached to. A lot of them were from my childhood, such as Casey the horse, the fish and a lot of the budgies.

Thank you for posting this question. I'll miss these animals forever, and I'm sure everyone else who has posted here will miss their own.

The most recent would be Percephini. I didn't give her that name. I called her Sephie. We had her leg amputated a year ago today. She had bone cancer. She was doing just wonderful after the surgery, but in December, the cancer came back throughout her entire body. She died, Jan. 2, 2007 of cancer.

Isis also died this winter. She got an upper respiratory infection that we could never get rid of. This included a weeks stay at the vet and medication. Somehow, she just couldn't shake it.

My first kitty, many years ago developed cancer and had to be put to sleep. I had just left home and moved to Hawaii when this happened. I had Kitty Sue since I was a little girl. My mother had to put her to sleep when I was 18 years old and was not around.

These are just a few of my very special animals that have died. It's really sad when I remember how much they meant to me.

A lot of them died of old age, chinese painted quail for example live 18 months to 5 years and I had some live about 7 years. I had cockatiels die of old age too閳?I didn閳ユ獩 get all my birds young. A couple were escapees and there was a few freak occurrences too閳?unexpected things that could not have been foreseen. I also suspect a wave of psittacosis at one stage, unfortunately. Also when I first started out with birds years ago, I was 8 years old and for a while only fed my birds seed, grass, and dandelion leaves, which probably stopped them living a full lifespan. You can be sure their diet is nothing like that now, I give them a very good diet which the vet has also approved off.
you had alot of pets.

Do they make good pets?!?!?

2009-12-06T19:07:00.003-08:00

I really want a chinchilla because they are so cute! I have some questions i need help answering. (anymore extra info is most appreciated)

1. Do they bite really hard, even if they are tame?

2. Can you hold them alot and play with them?

3. Do they make good pets to have around?

4. Since im going to be gone at school for mostly the whole day, will he/she get lonely, or do they sleep all day?

5. Is it really hard to take care of them and does it cost alot? (whats the total price for a chinchilla plus toys, food, cage..)

6. Is there any place (similiar to a rescue) that you can get a chinchilla for a low price but a tame and sweet one?

Thank you very much for your help!

Do they make good pets?!?!?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

1.) Some chinchilla's do bite and some don't. It depends. If you handle your chinchilla the right way and play with it the way chinchillas should be played, it won't bite you. Chinchillas do nibble to show affection or to find information about a person or another animal. If they're too young, they bite nibble too hard and can cause a pinching feeling. They rarely bite, though. You shouldn't really let your chinchilla nibble you because then you're teaching it that you don't mind and it might want to nibble a bit harder thinking you won't mind at all. With a firm, "No!" will let the chinchilla understand a little more. Remember though, they're animals. They don't understand that much, so if they try to bite or nibble on you, bring your hand away from it's mouth. That's the best thing you can do to help train your chinchilla.

2.) Yes, you can hold them and play with them. In fact, they absolutely LOVE to play with their owners. Most chinchillas don't like to be held or don't like to play, but a couple of weeks of attention will get your chinchilla into a happy mood. You need to have patience with your chinchilla, though, because some might be hard to get or hold. Chinchillas love to run around on the floor, but you should keep it supervised while on the floor. They are hard to catch while on the floor, so try to lure them by putting a raison in your hand and put it close enough to the chinchilla so it can eat the raison. Raisons are chinchilla's most favorite treat. An hour or more is a good time limit for a chinchilla's play time on the floor.

3.) Chinchillas are very good pets to have around. They are social at times and at others, they're not. To be sure you have a good chinchilla, make sure you buy one that's already tame. When choosing a chinchilla, make sure it is curious first, not angry or furious. If you find a perfect chinchilla that seems to fit you, try to see if it's the right one. If it's in a cage, put your hand in slowly, but not too far. Let the chinchilla come close enough to investigate you. If the chinchilla makes noices while it's investigating, I'd suggest a DIFFERENT chinchilla, just in case...but, overall, they're really good pets and yes, they're cute. They're fur is soft, as well. Feels like a pillow!

4.) Well, chinchillas do sleep a lot, but there's nothing to worry about. They are curious, but they're independent little creatures. Be careful that the house is not that hot for your chinchilla, though, because they can overheat very easily...make sure the house is cool for your chinchilla to relax in. But, yeah. They don't really get lonely as much as dogs would. Dogs get stressed out, but chinchillas, they are lively intelligent and don't get too lonely during the day since they sleep a lot. I wouldn't say they sleep all day, but they sleep a lot. It doesn't mean they still don't play, they just need rest.

5.) Chinchillas have different prices depending on where you buy them, and this is 100% true! Some chinchillas are $75-$85 or (and) $99-$125. But, if you're looking for a cage that costs less, I wouldn't suggest a plastic cage because they can chew their way out of the cage...but, chinchillas require very little care, so no need to worry. All they need is fresh food every day, hay, water daily, cleaning the cage once a week, and a bowl of dust placed in the cage 3 times a week. However, chinchillas do need your attention every single time. I wouldn't say it costs a lot, but the veterinarian check ups really depend. I'm not sure how much the cages cost, but you can always check your local pet store and see if they sell chinchillas and chinchilla accessories. (Food, water bowl, food bowl, etc...) Food you ask? Well, I think Mazuri is the best food for a chinchilla. You can't really get it from pet stores, though. However, you can buy it on: http://www.lonestarchinchilla.com/

6.) I don't really know where you live, but you should check your local pet store and if they don't have any, you can ask them if they know any place they can sell chinchillas for a low price and if that store requires everything you need for chinchillas.

* Hope this helps!

Do they make good pets?!?!?

-(Myspace.com)

Although people think of Chinchillas as cute, incredibly soft, and cuddly, and so of course they would make good pets, that is not always the case.

They have strong hind legs and move about by using a hopping gait and are surprisingly good jumpers, hence the need for a cover on a chinchilla cage. Chinchillas are as soft as they are because of the incredible density of their fur, with as many as 60 hairs growing from only one hair follicle. Because of the hair density, they are highly susceptible to overheating and become uncomfortable in temperatures above 75娼濬, suffering potential heat stroke at temperatures above 80娼? They also do not tolerate humidity. The best environment is temperatures between 50-65娼?with a relative humidity of less than 50%.

Chinchillas will live for 15-22 years, so acquiring one is a long-term commitment. They are nocturnal, with the majority of activity and feeding taking place at night, and sleeping during the daylight hours. Because they are an active and acrobatic creature and curious by nature, they require a large enclosure - ideally 6-7 feet by 6-7 feet by 3-4 feet. Shy, too, they also need a hide box and a nesting box. Chinchillas have the somewhat unique grooming habit of dust bathing. Commercially formulated chinchilla dust baths should be purchased for this purpose. Given the opportunity, they will "bathe" in their dust once a day, but should be given this opportunity at least several times a week.

Chinchillas can be kept singly or in pairs (although this will add space requirements). The best age to purchase your chinchilla is between 3-4 months of age. Frequent, gentle handling will speed the taming and bonding process. Although they do not like to be held, chinchillas, once tame, are fond of climbing on their owners. Please consider these points when deciding whether a chinchilla is a good pet choice for you.

Rodents are cute, but they usually don't turn out to be your cup of tea.....

Chinchillas

From Lianne McLeod,

Your Guide to Exotic Pets.

Scientific Name: Chinchilla lanigera

Life Span: Chinchillas typically about 15 years, but 18-22 years is not uncommon.

Size: Body length about 10-14 inches; tail is another 5-6 inches or so.

Temperament: With gentle handling from a young age most chinchillas will become quite tame and bond closely with their owners, although sometimes they do not like to be held or cuddled. They are very active and playful. Chinchillas can be kept singly, and usually will do fine as same sex pairs especially if they are littermates or introduced at a young age.

Habits: Chinchillas are nocturnal so will be most active in the evening and night. They should be kept in a fairly quiet area during the day. They prefer a consistent routine for handling a feeding times and may be stressed out by changes to their routine. Since they are so active and playful, chinchillas need a roomy cage for exercise as well as daily playtime. Warm temperatures are more of a concern for chinchillas than cool temperatures, so care must be taken that pet chinchllas do not become overheated.

Feeding: Chinchillas require a lot of roughage, and the diet should mainly be made up of a good quality grass hay along with pellets made for chinchillas. Treats should be given in moderation (one teaspoon per day in total) and can include fruits (eg fresh or dried apples, grapes, raisins), vegetables (carrots, celery), sunflower seeds, and rolled oats. The digestive system of chinchillas is fairly sensitive so any diet changes should be gradual.

Cages: Chinchilla cages must be large, and multi-level cages with platforms, ramps, and perches are ideal. For more information, see Cages for Chinchillas.

Dust Bath and Toys: Along with regular access to a dust bath, chinchillas need a variety of toys to keep them busy and active, especially items for chewing to keep the incisor teeth in good condition. See [link url]http://exoticpets.about.com/od/chinc... and Toys for Chinchillas for more on these necessities.

Handling and Taming: You must be gentle and consistent to gain the trust of a chinchilla. Find out the steps to taming chinchillas in How to Tame a Chinchilla.
Very easy to care for and yes they can break the skin. I would check rescues. The price of these is insane wait till someone needs to give one away in the paper but don't give breeders money.
They are the best pets to have I think!

1). They don't bite hard. If they are really scared it MIGHT break skin, MIGHT. But most bites you hardly feel.

2). You can hold them as much. They are your perfect mix of animals. Like a cat you can leave them in solitude and they will be fine. Like a dog they are playful and you can walk them around the block on a leash. And they have a cute rodent body!

3). They are easy to take care of, so they will be great to have around.

4). They should be ok since they sleep alot.

5). Originaly it can be costly but once you've bought the cage, animal, etc. It should be fairly inexpensive. It's easy to clean if you get a wire cage.

6). Some exotic pet stores have them, and those are pretty good.
Chinchillas are like hamsters, they're nocturnal. They have slippery furs and slip easily and are hard to catch. They are easily afraid and are hard to bond with. Unlike dogs, they like to be alone and sleep all day. Their cage should be big, at around $100, they need big toys and one of those plastic houses. They are bigger than hamsters and most ginea pigs and chinchillas will at a lot of food, so be prepared to make some finacial sacrafices. People don't just give away chincillas for cheap unless you happen to come across someone on the street with chincilla babies, but that's highly unlikely. Just get one at Petsmart or Petco for $120 or so.

However, I would just recommand a hamster. But chincillas are cuter... kinda like you :)
Domesticated chinchillas do not make very good pets. They are very skittish, have very delicate bone structure, and generally do not like to be held. They live for around 15 years, about the same as a dog or cat so owning one should not be undertaken lightly.

Chinchillas have very specific caging needs. A large cage is needed with shelves to jump onto and off of and they must have a pan of special chinchilla dust for baths which they take several times a week(water will rot their fur). Toys for the cage and the cage itself cannot be made of plastic; chinchillas are enthusiastic chewers and plastic causes intestinal blockage. Hanging toys made of wood (not connifer woods; they are toxic to chinchillas. You cannot have any cedar bedding or other bedding made from connifer woods) and a large wheel (at least 16" diameter) can be added to the cage, though the wheel shouldn't be made of mesh as the legs and toes can get caught.

They cannot sweat so the cage must have excellent air circulation and the environment must never reach above 77F or they could die from heat exhaustion. They are also very inquisitive by nature so they need at least 1/2 hour of supervised time every day outside of the cage.

Overall, I don't think getting a chinchilla just because they are cute is a good idea. Personally, I think its a bad trait of humans (not you) that we ever bred a domestic strain of a wild animal just so we could keep them in cages because they're "cute".
I don't know the answer to your question, but I wanted to commend you for asking it and doing your research instead of just buying a pet because its cute. If more people were like you there would be less unwanted pets turned in to rescues or abandoned. People should make sure the pet is what they want and what they can handle before getting on, which is what you're doing. Kudos to you for being a responsible person!
1. they bite but not that hard

2. yea

3. yes of course!

4. nope! as long as you leave it with food and toys it will be fine!

5. well it matters how good it is. for example: for 5 star everything for gerbils it will cost 70 to 100 dollars. and it also matters where you get it,

6. hummm.. try Pet Smart and Pet Company at the mall. (any mall)

hope this helps.

p.s you can go to google for more help!

How much is your pets life worth?

how much is your pets life worth?

what would be your limit in vet bills to save your little friends life?

would you take out loans?

How much is your pets life worth?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I would go as far as my pet was willing to fight, and I have. I look at the situation based on the quality of thier life, risk of surgery, etc. I have had tumors removed from rats, leg aputated from a degu(that cost a bundle).

I have also PTS rats that had tumors, if I feel the surgery would be too much for them, or the after care. When emergencies come up I usually decide by asking myself "If it didn't cost anything, would I do it?"

How much is your pets life worth?

-(Myspace.com)

Yes. I would do anything it took.

How much is your pets life worth?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

I don't have a limit on the worth of my pets. Yes, I would take out loans. The only factor I would consider is that usually when things are getting that expensive one needs to look at the quality of life for the animal and consider whether it is more kind to put it to sleep.
I would do whatever it took. But I would want to look at quality of life for my pet. So many new options out there like chemo therapy acupunture for pets... carts for animals who have lost the use of their legs or broken their backs..
In the past three years, we've spent almost $10,000. He is my baby, and real estate has been good to us, so we had the money. However, if the same issues were to come up again, we would seek alternative therapies, or be more open to considering putting him down. This is the only dog I will ever do that to and for. He's my little king, and I wasn't ready to let him go so soon. (He had just come into my life.) But he's doing wonderfully well, for now, and it has all been worth it.
i would do anything to keep my pets happy but it depends if the pet is sick or dying. If my pet is dying and keeping it alive would be painful for it, i would say id have to put it down for their sake and so they wouldnt have to suffer any longer.
My dog's lives are priceless.

My cats are special, but not priceless.

I can't state a single limit on vet bills to save my dogs' lives. One has had expensive surgery and I learned that you have to evaluate each situation separately. You have to consider the age and what the dog is and does to make that decision.

If my dog was really old, I wouldn't put out the money for major medical expenses. For a young, extremely active guardian, it's hard to not do the surgery. So it just depends on the dog and the situation.
i'm not going to lie to you. It really depends. If it was a hamster, rabbit, or guineapig or something like that, then no. I would put it to sleep : ( If it was like a dog, cat, or horse, then I would spend all that I had.
It took me 2 years to pay off the loan for my cat's cancer treatment. No, he didn't survive. I don't regret it. At least I gave him the chance. I don't like Nedra's answer because she finds certain genera of animals more valuable than others. I hope her family doesn't feel that way about her. "You know she's special, but what the ****! My son is more important and the money goes for him."
Priceless unless they were only going to suffer.
They are the best friends you could ever have - i would do anything for my pets!!!

Pets lower your blood pressure. They reduce stress. And they are cute.
pets interact with people, they are companions.. stuffed animals.. well they just sit there and do nothing.
because pets are FUN!!!
living companionship, unconditional love, and purpose.
Go buy a hamster and an aquarium for 20 bucks and you'll see why. Pets can become good friends, just like humans.
Usually for fun, sometimes because they are rich
i ask myself the same question all the time. they add extra expenses, sometimes cause serious trauma%26lt;bites and stuff%26gt; and often die of totally artificial causes. but they can also be a source of income, if u know what i mean.
some have no childrens.or you just love them.etc.
SO THEY WON'T FEEL LONELY!!!
cuz they just want some company but they don't want a human so they can tell their pets all their secrets and stuff and they'll never tell... and just for the fun of it
Because they can love you back. For some people it fills a need to nurture something, but mostly because they are companions that only ask for care and love...what is better than that!!!
Stuff amimals CANNOT love you in return like living animals can.

Need I say more?
They Love Them-And The Want A Pet.
because they're lonely, they want an alive companion, and they either don't like people or people don't like them
People own pets for their unconditional love. When you have a pet, you never feel lonely. Because they are like a child, you feel needed because they depend on you for everything. A stuffed animal is cute, but if you ever have a little dog or cat, you would know that there is nothing like them. I take my Yorkie everywhere...on planes, in the car, shopping, etc. But you must be responsible, nothing is worse than seeing a pitiful little animal mis-treated. It is as cruel as mis-treating a baby. Good Luck
If you're lonely stuffed animals won't cure that. I have two pets because I enjoy the unconditional love that my dog and sometimes bird brings. It keeps me unselfish and makes me a better person plus they lower blood pressure.
because they are comforting and it feels good just to say you have one

Why do parents hate pets?

I'm not saying all but most of them hate having pets at home. why??????

Why do parents hate pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Because they usually end up taking care of the pet and paying all of the vet bills.

Why do parents hate pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

Parents usually end up being the ones who have to take care of the pets no matter how much children promise they will take care of the pet. I have also known kids who have gotten pets only to loose interest in them and then have there parents have to take care of them. Pets also make a mess and cost money to feed.
I concur with the answer above.
I LIKE EVERYTHING EXCEPT

MOLES
Because they think that puppies will tear apart the house (which they do sometimes) and they are allergic and they dont feel like taking care of one, even if their kids are capable!!!
Because they are messy and dirty and kids say they want them, but don't take care of them and the parents pay the vet bills.
No matter how much the kids say they will take care of the animal, they usually don't. Also, the parents wind up paying all the vet bills
Because having children to clean up after can be enough for some people without having pets as well. Its just more work.

I have a 4 year old girl and she certainly makes enough of her own. However, I did just get 2 puppies. I don't hate pets but having puppies is like having another toddler in the house.
Mans best friend is the dog. (Hopefully)
I have a theory that you might be interested in, I believe that people who do not love/like animals- that show an unnatural disdain to domestic pets (and I'm not talking snakes- cats, dogs, birds, especially), that they should not be allowed to have children. They lack NURTURING tendencies--think about all the people you know that HATE animals and I will show you someone who will be abusive to their wife, family, and kids. Serial killers are known to be sadistic animal torturers and killers as children before they moved on to bigger game-- people.

I am a parent x2 and I have had 4 dogs, 3 birds and no cats. I love all animals and if it were up to me, I would be a vegetarian.

What do you think of my theory on animal haters????
they will not slaughter themselves
Of the ones I know, few hate having pets about. I live in a dog street. Two at my house, five at the house on one side, and two on the other. Who knows how many there are total in this street alone.

Good point, some people do not like animals anyway. They do not know what they are missing.

How dare that Petunia discriminate against moles? Come on, everyone, let's get her!!!
It has been my observation that most parents approve and like pets. In many cases the parents are more interactive with the pets than the children.
Because, whether they like it or not..they get to do all the work that is associated with having a pet!
because they don't like to feed them

even i have that broblem. what to do........................
All the reasons everyone has said, including the fact that despite a diligent child's efforts to look after it, puppies have the tendency to chew up gardens and other things that parents will have spent either a lot of time or money on.
I agree with all that has been said about parents having to clean up after the pets, also end up walking puppies, coz the child/ren who wanted it and promised to look after it, suddenly lose interest. I totally disagree with mac's bullcrap. Seems to me that she would force others to have pets just because she has pets, or, risk being called un-nurturing or whatever. well pppppfffffftttttttt to her answer.
Money! They cost money!

They bind you to the house - can't just take off for a weekend or a holiday.

Pets are more inconvenient than children! Haha. LOL

Children make all sorts of promises about looking after a pet. They never stick to their promises. Ever.

A house with a dog always STINKS too. Ditto un-neutered cats.

Rodents stink. Etc., etc..
I am a mother and I love pets. All animals and I encourage my children to love them too. We have a lot of animals and climbing - I cannot understand why some parents dont like animals in the house. It has been proven that the therepy of animals is enormously positive and having pets encourages children to think of some other living things needs instead of their own. Yes there are some down sides - puppes chew things and pee everywhere and cats scratch furniture but they are just little things - if a child feels angry hugging hteir puppy is good therepy, and if they are scared to go to bed then sleeping with the puppy is comforting. I dont mind cleaning up after the pet when the children wont and when I look at my sleeping child with his puppy all is forgiven. Also a child Remembering to feed a living creature and act responsibly can only be a positive thing. I believe you are never quite so lonely with animals at home. I want more pets - all the more the merrier - maybe a giraffe next time (lol) By
I find Mac's attitude deeply offensive.

I have 3 'kids' all happy and well adjusted. The eldest two work for a cancer charity and with disabled people respectively, the youngest is an autistic teenager.

I have not had a cat or dog since my daughter was two. I have to work for a living and I'd no more leave a cat or dog alone all day than I would my child. I also recognise that there are aspects of pet care I can't deal with and I feel leaving your pets to foul the streets is a poor way of dealing with it. Many of my neighbours disagree. On top of this I have a severe allergy to cats - rashes, asthma attacks etc.

People need to realise that having a pet, like having a child is a responsibility. Parents who know that they can't deal with both are only being sensible.

Oh and not having pets doesn't make me an animal hater; I like pets (including cats) as long as they belong to other people.

Neither my husband or myself are serial killers.
I think parents do not hate pets. They do hate that they - when it comes down to it - have to take all responsibility for it as most kids let go of their promeses after a few weeks.

They (parents) need to feed it, pay for the food, pay for the vet, walk it, clean its cage / litter / kennel ... While kids only have the fun times!
because its like having another kid in the house
I never had pets as a kid till one day abought a fish back from a fair and had a row with my parents about keeping him. my parnets had pets when they were younger but choose not to let me and my sister have any(until the fish). This dosen't mean they did not nurture me and my sister it just means that we were more important to them than sharing their lives with an animal as well.
Kids want some responsibility. To some parents, that is scary. They don't like the fact that their kids are growing up. In some odd years, they will be out on their own and parents don't want that to come any quicker than it has to.
Unlike everyone who answered your question, I will answer using a more variety of pets. My fish just died, and I feel so bad, because it really was my fault. It seemed like the fish was unhappy, and miserable in his small bowl. He committed suicide by squeezing inside a small shell, he didn't have enough room to breath, so he just died. my point is is that parents don't like seeing you unhappy so they might want to prevent the pain from loosing a pet, like I did.

Are some women healing childhood emotional disappointments by projecting excessive indulgence onto s

2009-12-06T19:06:00.000-08:00

Is there a deeper meaning in the attachments some women have to their small pets, by engaging in extremely permissive behavior with them? As though they can make up for the attention they didn't receive as young girls, by granting attention in excessive amounts to their pets. Are these pets the vicarious representatives of the broken child?

Are some women healing childhood emotional disappointments by projecting excessive indulgence onto small pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I raised two chickens from the time they were little babies until they passed away. For the first six months of their lives, they lived inside the house with me. They had special accomodations- and a heat light, and they had lots of attention. I grew attached to them almost immediately. It was very hard for me to move them outside. I built them a chicken coop that took up half of our back yard space, and the heighth of it was taller than I, so that they would have lots and lots of room. I also built them a wooden chicken house (inside the coop) so that they'd have a place to go to when it was cold or rainy. They were my babies. During the summer they had free reign of the backyard. When I came out to feed them they would squawk and come running to me. I often went outside just to visit them. They made me laugh. They would sleep pressed up against the glass sliding door that led into my kitchen- just to be as "close" to me as the could be. They always wanted to be inside the house with me! There were times I let them in (only in the kitchen on the linoleum..lol!) Other times they snuck in (if someone left the door open)....one time I found one of them perched inside a large plant container in my living room. She was sitting absolutely still so as not to be noticed....lol! Once, a neighbor's dog got into my backyard and bit one of my chickens, tearing her tail feathers off ...I found her by following the trail of blood that led to a pile of wood that she had tried to hide herself under. She was shaking. I was crying. It was horrible. It was apparent she'd been hiding there for some time. I called to her to come out. She came out, and came over to me. She let me examine her injury, and for the longest time I sat there with her and pet her...soothing her until she stopped shaking. She survived the injury. About a year later, a raccoon attacked my other chicken. She wasn't so lucky. I tried to save her life. I kept her inside the house for four days, disinfected her wounds (they were deep)....she could hardly stay awake. I sang to her to keep her awake....I fed her with a spoon because she would not eat or drink on her own. When she went into convulsions and died on the fourth day, I cried for hours. I don't care if anyone out there thinks I'm crazy for having a deep attachment to my pets. They were my friends. They made me smile. They loved me. I loved them.

Is there a deeper meaning here? Of course there is. Anyone who's ever loved an animal/pet will tell you that animal has a soul, a personality...that the relationship is as precious as any that could be formed with humans. To love is not the product of a "broken child", to love means you have the capacity to feel love. It's just that simple.

That would probably be the reason for Paris Hilton owning multiple purse-sized dogs.

EDIT: There's never been any evidence that she has any maternal instincts, but you never really know 閳?most of the people who know her name have never actually met her.

Lack of the "perfect guy" has created huge demand for lap-dogs, ice cream and electronic gadgets.
Are some men compensating for the small size of their johnson's by driving huge trucks and SUV's?

It's simple-some women are pet lovers %26amp; some men like to drive big cars. Can't we all just have our own preferences without people reading in to them.

As Sigmund Freud said "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar."
Doubtless true, but everyone needs to find some way to heal.

Men also indulge animals, and often say things like they would trust an animal more than a human.

There are lots of manifestations of the broken child in our society, probably in all societies, and over-indulging pets is one of the more accessible and socially sanctioned.

Cheers :-)
i think it more likely they are projecting maternal instincts. this phenomenon seems to occur largely with young unmarried childless women. hhhmmmmmm...good question though.
As a women who owns a small dog, a maltese, I would say in my case no. I had a wonderful childhood and still love being a "daddy's girl" ( he'll be 80 in March).

Being a parent of 2 grown sons, and a pet parent, the love you experience is different, but still strong. No pet would or could take the place of my child, but in a sense, my pet (Tess), is very much like my child. She depends on me to love and take care of her, and she in turn, loves me and comforts me unconditionally. That is not to say that some people go to extremes when it comes to their pets, but the unconditional love you receive from your pet is great and it is easy to spoil them!

I just wish I had bought stock in Petco when they first came onto the market! Talk about going to the dogs!
I project my maternal instinct into my two old mutt dogs. One really a small one, but the smaller of them all is a turtle that have been with me for ages.

I don't heal my childhood with them, I grew up with pets since a child so it is natural for me to have pets now as a woman. I love animals, I always did. I actually enrolled to be a veterinarian course, although theatre was taking to much time (lol). Later I enrolled into a long distance course for a veterinarian assistant, again I didn't finish because of theatre (lol)

Nevertheless, my relationship with animals are the bond I have to everything that is this earth, us humans are not the only ones, and it is amazing to have this wonderful conversations with other species, that juts as us have all the right to be here :-)

Hope I am clear, I just finish (by accident) a whole bottle of wine ;-)

Edit: I just saw you mentioned Paris Hilton, sorry I never read about her, I find her uninteresting
I suppose some might......but if you are talking about Paris Hilton, she just appears to be doing a trendy thing, not a maternal thing.
I honestly don't think there is a deeper meaning to anything Paris Hilton ever does or says.
Is that a full blown sexist question?Ya wanna know if having small pets compensates???Just because I have 5 cats, 6 birds, 3 rats, two turtles, 4 toads, a newt, and a tarantula!!!!!!....well, maybe...
I saw a show on National Geo a while back where they had a prison rehab program where the men fostered puppies, kittens and even parrakeet's until an owner could be found. Women also trained seeing eye dogs. The men and women both said it was therapeutic. Just today I saw a man walking a dog that looked like it weighed about four pounds or so. So I guess it works with both genders. Personally, I think women who dress up those little dogs and treat them babies are rather ridiculous.
This is an audacious question. Where in the world did you get such an absurd idea from? Doting on a favored pet is just that--loving and enjoying a creature....projecting in some cases the maternal instinct onto the animal yes but that is all.
the only three situations i've known of personally and fairly long term, i would have to say, is as you mention treating a pet as a replacement for a child. But these women being in their 30's, never married, or near to a close relationship, i thought of it more to be a sad replacement of the family they never had or would have. Thinking about it in your terms, i guess it very well could be as you say, the child they were never allow to be.
nope..i just like animals alot. :D i always have
Up until now, I've suspected it. My mother is a prime example.

(Do you think it's a co-incidence that I despise small dogs with a hatred that can only be described as genocidal?)

How much are Dachshunds?? are they good pets?

well, i have a chiweenie and i adore her. to understand her breed a bit more i've researched both chihuahuas and dachshunds. http://www.about-dogs.com/breed_table.ht... was a great help. keep in mind, that if you get a purebred doxie.....there are lots of cool canine clubs that you can join! that is an added bonus for being a dog lover. the sites also give you estimated prices.

hope you find your puppy soon.

Well, it depends on what you are looking for. I'd say do your research online... run a google search and read up on dauchshunds or any other breed you want to look at. Make sure you read about their health issues, etc. You have to be willing to take the good with the bad. But, knowing ahead of time what to be on the lookout for helps.

Good luck.

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

yes they r great pets sum can be yappy but most of em r great dogs if trained well, my cuzin has a dachshund and she is a smart and cute little dog she got him 4 $50 from a friend
Dox are great pets. If you socialize them, they are very good with people and other dogs. They like to run and play. And they stay small.

They are independent, so may not be easy to train. Also, they can have back problems, and can get overheated from running too much.

You can buy a nice dog for a few hundred bucks. You may find a rescue organization in the telephone book or online which has very good dogs that need to be adopted.
I can't really say how much Dachshunds cost. It all depends on their pedigree and the breeder's preference. For instance, a dog whose parentage includes a trophy winning AKC show dog will cost more than your average breeder's puppies whose lineage is less than stellar.

I've been around a few dachshunds, most were pleasant. However, I would warn you to beware of their potential instincts: The Dachshund's history includes a wide range of jobs, but most commonly they were "ratters," dogs encouraged to chase away pesky rodents wandering about the premises. If you get a dog with such instincts, you may have to conflict such problems as excessive digging, barking, and nipping.
Dachshunds are great pets. If you are interested in one, you should read up on the breed. Go to AKC's website and read up on the breed. http://www.akc.org/breeds/dachshund/inde...

Another good place to go is a dog show. If you can find a dog show in your area, you can talk to breeders and meet some of their dogs. Breeders will know how to answer any questions you have.

As far as cost, it depends on where you buy the dog. My recommendation would be to buy from a reputable breeder. I bought one from a reputable breeder and mine cost $500. It's well worth spending a little more for a well bred, good quality dog. I would avoid pet stores as they usually buy from brokers who obtain their puppies from puppy mills. Plus, a pet store will charge more for a puppy that is less quality.

Do your research and make sure you make a smart choice in buying from a breeder who knows the breed and the breeds faults. A good breeder breeds to better the breed, not to produce puppies for profit.
Well, as far as price, that depends on where you get it from. A reputable breeder will be more expensive, but you will probably end up with a healthier dog with a better temperament than one from a backyard breeder. So, you could pay between $200 - $1000, depending where you get the dog from.

Okay, I work at a VERY large animal hospital and deal with Dachshunds everyday. They can range from total sweeties to really mean ones that will bite aggressively. The ones that are sweet are great little dogs, and have tons of personality. I think a lot of it is how the owners treat and train them...they act like little schnookums is their little baby and let them bark, growl and bite and don't discipline them. I believe that is why many of them bite and act aggressive. The stupid owners allow it and don't correct them when they act that way. Like someone said, they were bred to hunt small prey and some of them do bark a lot.

Also, a big thing to consider, is that they can have very bad back problems. If you get one, I would most definitely get pet insurance(or a high limit credit card to keep only for vet emergencies) just in case it ever needs surgery, as it is very costly. A vet tech at work just had to bring her dog in for emergency back surgery last week when she woke up to find her 3 year old Dachshund paralyzed and in severe pain. Sometimes surgery doesn't do much for the problem, and the dog may need a cart and possibly it's bladder expressed for the rest of it's life. I don't mean to scare you from the breed, but it is a very big concern and something to think about in case it would happen to you.

If you want to know what dog would be good for you and fit in with your lifestyle, I recommend going to www.akc.org and looking at the different breeds so you can make an informed decision about getting a dog. The site will tell you about the different breeds and give you information on the types of home they do best in and links to breeders and breed clubs around the country. Also, there are plenty of rescues(breed specific ones are common) and shelters with just about any type dog imaginable to be found.

What are the world's non-caged pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I think this is mostly a question of an animal's sociability, rather than whether the animal is caged or non-caged-- any animal that's intelligent and tame enough can spend a lot of time out of a cage, though most non-cat/dog animals (especially the smaller ones) should have some kind of secured, confined space they semi-regularly go back to, for their own safety.

In addition to things people have already said (pot bellied pigs, some rabbits): I know you said you were excluding reptiles, but some Iguanas and other bigger domestic lizards can become really tame and wander around the house. My friend's Iguana never really went in its cage, and acted pretty much like like a cat, even coming to the door when someone came in.

Fennec foxes are adorable, and largely uncommon as pets-- but common and tame enough to be considered "exotic pets," which is a well above "wild animals that occassionally don't savage their owner/owner's children/home before escaping and causing chaos at the local strip mall" (which are usually illegal anyway). They generally don't ever get quite as tame as a dog (in terms of finding their way home and command training, not in terms of being vicious, as they're usually friendly with everyone unless they're scared) but they come close and should be treated similarly, as far as wandering around the house goes. Though they're more likely to continue and try to get out of the house even after they've become accustomed and attached to you (mainly because they're curious), it would never be alright to keep a fox caged up any more than a dog or cat. Given regular exercise and secured outdoor play time (many of them can be trained to play fetch), I've heard they can be really playful and affectionate pets if you're willing to make the effort. This is clearly not a city pet, and they're about as as expensive as a monkey, maybe a little less (think, $1000 for a kit).

-----By the way, I really don't recomment monkeys as pets-- I think they're a little too intelligent to be treated like pets, and they clearly can't be children-- either way, pet monkeys often end up disturbed, and violent. However, if you research (and do research like crazy, even get professional advice) and decide a monkey is, in fact, right for you, I would suggest a capuchin monkey-- they tend to be more gentle and affectionate and are pretty small, but have very stringent dietary restrictions and seem to have made the most successful pets.

Sugar gliders aren't exactly non-caged-- they should definitely have a cage (bigger = better)-- but like ferrets (most of which do you have cages, regardless of how much the use them), they can spend a lot more time out of a cage than most smaller animals, because they have the capacity to get really attached to their primary care givers if trained and bonded with. They'll hang out in the pockets, and under the hoodies/jackets/shirts of someone they've bonded with for an extended amount of time. However, since they're social animals, it's better to keep sugar gliders in pairs. They cost about as much as a ferret ($175 for one baby, and usually less if you buy more than one, as breeders encourage keeping gliders together).

While I usually recommend rescue before anything (dogs/ cats/ ferrets/ rabbits/ etc.), I would be wary of adopting exotic pets from rescues, as animals that are harder to tame are best to bond with as babies for obvious reasons, and rescue animals are more likely to have behavior quirks or health issues a non-professional may not be best suited to deal with. Of course, with any unconventional animal, it's important to make sure they're legal where ever you live-- and make sure you really can handle the care involved, not only because that's vital in deciding to get any pet, but they'll also clearly be much more difficult to adequately rehome.

Well except for aquatic animals I guess you could let anything roam your house. It just isn't always a good idea.

Birds like parrots are better off out of a cage most of the time. Rabbits supposedly can be litter box trained, so that could stay out. A chinchilla I'm guess could spend a lot of time out.
Dogs, Cats, Bunnys, and I don't know.
Pot bellied pigs....so cute...
I thought it a bit odd that you excluded reptiles etc. There are certainly species of tortoise and chameleon that do not require a cage. I've known tortoises that wander around an entire basement w/walkout exercise area, and chameleons with their own rooms. There's also the more general rabbit, pig, multiple medium to large birds (when owner present), goat, small horse, skunk, etc. I think this question is more size and behavior dependent as well as ensuring the animals living area is safe for them.
Dogs, cats, ferrets ( but they do get in ALOT of trouble so it is best to keep them in a confined area, monkeys, rabbits( again with a litterbox in a confined area, skunks( domesticated skunks have the glad that produces the spray removed)

Um . . . "Lily (My One And Only)" by Smashing Pumpkins kinda reminds me of my cat. Even though her name isn't Lily, that song reminds me of my cat because it's rumored that Billy Corgan wrote that song about a cat named Lily, who he shared with Courtney Love.
Dog- Matrix (Led Zeppelin- Black Dog)...because he is huge and black

Cats-Cavalli, Nebbiola and Harry (Gato Barbieri-Last Kiss). Because the cats are just as sensual and fascinating as his sax....

The 4 Beta fish- (Santana- Aquamarina)... they should have lived in some tropical waters

2 turtles- ( The Turtles- So happy together)....they are turtles and happy together...LOL

and you?
I do not know the name of the song but there was a weird experience with one. I was in the car riding home from the veterinarian the day after Thanksgiving. We had put our cat to sleep (She had cancer). I was in a demented state of mind, and to make it worse they had all these songs on the radio like Slipped Away by Avril Lavigne. Ughh...
My kittens are named Sufjan after Sufjan Stevens and J璐竛si, after Sigur R璐竤's frontman. So anything by them.
Yep. Delilah by Queen, reminds me of my cat and dogs.
Kitty .. Presidents of the United States of America.

Kitty at my foot an I wanna touch it .. MEOW !!!

Not long at all, the Pandoras box has opened widely. Something hetrosexuals had as special and their own is dissolving in a pool of hedonistic ambition. You can get your dog and marriage license at the same time(and the same place) You point is well made.

you may be afraid off if the laws let you do some things then you will do these things, so you are more comfortable when things are forbidden.
Soon, I hope!
not a very good joke...
Marriage is a legal contract.

You can only marry another person because you can only contract with people. You can't contract with animals.

Don't hold your breath.
As soon as your pet can say (in a language that all present can understand) that he/she is marrying you of his/her own will you can marry them. Also they have to sign the marriage license.
Erm, I think you already can.

can somebody kill this guy that asking this q before God to the Job
Hmmm, I wonder if your question is really a spoof, an unfriendly one if you will, on the concept of gay marriage.

Perhaps you are one of those that feel the only way to have a marriage is for a man and a woman to get married. In fact, we should just stay where we were in the 50's, not only socially, but also technologically and mentally.

We shouldn't advance in any way shape or form, so that people will die younger, we will never travel the stars, we will keep everything a secret (it will still all be going on, we just won't talk about it, as it's not something that civilized people do), and we will deny certain people (of color, of gender, of sexual preferences) out of any sort of power.

Of course, there is a tiny possibility that you are serious, and then I would have to say that sure, marry your pet, I wish the two of you many happy days and nights together. It may seem awkward at first, as people give you those strange looks, and you are forced to defend your lifestyle choices everytime you go anywhere in public.

But from the choice of your words, and as a tremendous judge of character, I'd say that you appear to be the noble upstanding type of soul that can pull this off. You appear to have the strongest spirit and resolve of anyone I've ever met (online or off) and thus I feel that if anyone can make this change in our lifetimes, it's you. I wish you the best of luck.

Love as always,

Sebastian
Perhaps you should check first and make sure your dog isn't already married. She may be sneaking around behind your back and you don't know about it.
I swear I have seen that guy Sebastian cut and paste that crap before.

I do not agree.

Your kind has pretty much been the pill that was forced on america

and the question (if poised as a tool in the regard you imply) IS DEAD ON THE MONEY.

Above that, a man said Pandora's Box is widely open,

or something to that extent.

BINGO....BINGO.....BINGO

Give that man 10 points if you would Vrrrrm.

Are bunnies pretty good pets?

2009-12-06T19:03:00.001-08:00

Hi, I would like to consider getting a bunny but i am not sure if they are very good pets. Can you please give me a list of pros and cons and other notes on bunnies? Which is better for one indoors or out? (if i got one i would prefer it be outside). How often would i have to change the cage a week? Are they smelly?

I also have 1 more concern. I have an indoor/outdoor cat with all her claws. I am afraid that my cat would get to the bunny and kill it outside. Would she or whats your best bet? She does kill rats and birds so thats why it worries me.

Thank You! (so many questions but yeah.)

Oh and if you don't think the cat would be a problem can you advise me on bunnies and cages.

Are bunnies pretty good pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Bunnies are awesome! But just so you know, they aren't exactly rodents....I can't remember what they actually are, but I thought I'd just let you know:)

Ok...

Pros:

a) they are absolutely adorable and cuddly! Good for making you feel better when you're sad.

b)LOL, you're friends will want to come over more often...haha, sorry, couldn't resist.

c) they're quite low maintenance...in other words, they don't take too much taking care of....but don't forget to play with your bunny lots!

d) they don't cost too much. After you've bought the bunny and everything they need, they aren't too expensive.

I know there aren't very many pros, but bunnies are sooo awesome!

Cons:

a) you have to clean their cage once a week, and its kind of stinky sometimes...don't worry though, they only stink if you don't clean their cage, or stick your face in their litter box.

b) you have to litter train them, but that's not too hard as long as you do it right.

c) they are loud at night, as they are nocturnal.

d) you have to feed and water them every morning. before school or work in the morning is best.

So there you go!

Some tips, eh? Hmmm...

Well, I would definately suggest keeping your rabbit outside...if you don't want a cute, adorable, fluffy one.

Mini Lops are probably not raised outside best...but the ones that are bigger and look more like jack rabbits then fluffy bunnies are good. DON'T put your rabbit outside at first if it is winter! Make sure that if you get an outside rabbit, you put it outside in the summer, so that it gets used to the climate. Then it will be alright, otherwise it may die. Oh, and as long as your bunny has a good, sturdy cage, the cat won't kill it.

Here is a link to a healthy diet for bunnies: http://en.allexperts.com/q/Rabbits-703/M...

Go to this link to see a picture of both of my bunnies:

Princess(41/2 years old, lives outside, and very strong, and never afraid to take on a cat...in fact, the cat would probably be more scared then Princess!)

Oops! I can't find a picture, but she is light brown, and more jack rabbity type.

Here is Pepsi(3 months old, I just got her, a mini lop, as cute as a button)

http://o-the-drama.blogspot.com/2008/02/...

That's my blog...sooo yeah!

Go to www.petsmarts.com and search: rabbit hutches or rabbit cages and some pics will pop up, with the prices beneath them.

Hope I helped:) and I hope you get a bunny! They're great pets!

yeh there gr8
well, kinda. there not great. i had 2!
Depends on the bunny, some are far to skiddish to be any fun as pets. I had one though, that he must of thought he was dog. He was so cuddly!
i had one when i was young, it stunk up the whole house...
I have heard that they scratch you a lot but I have always had good experiences with them
No. I say if you can get a dog or come or some goldfish.
i was going to get a bunny but then my cuzon told me you have to clean it everyday and play with it in the garden and they really stink thats why i ant getting one now im getting a kitten now :-)
Try putting your bunny in a cage because they are fast and can run away easily. What I mean is one day I was walking down the street and there was a dead bunny (with dead hair and bones on the sidewalk. It was recent and I'm serious.
they smell really bad!!!!!!!!!!
iv had 3 rabbits, never been bitten by any, well once was an accident but there was alot of little kids runnin about and she was panicing and all nervous and went 2 pick herup 2 calm her n she got a fright n just got ma finger. they can scatch, iv had COUNTLESS scratches from when u try to pick them up when they are not used to you, but they hardly ever break teh skin at all. it barely stings! its like when its justa white line, if ya know what i mean? you have to clean them out fairly regylarly or they do smell. but they are awesome and i would definately recommend them! mine follows me around when i bring her up to my room, and sits at ma feet n runs in and outta ma legs untill i pick her up n give her a cuddle! im not sure about the cat suituation though as i have never owned one. gogogo get a bunny :)
Well, bunnies are amazing pets - they play with you and needs lots of attention and exercise. they can be kept outside in the winter if they have enough bedding and dont get a draft (check www.rabbit.org) and in the summer if they are kept out of the heat - rabbits are very sensitive to heat. Have a hutch that is above the ground on legs to the cat can't get in and make sure it is secure from other predators.

Rabbits and cats can get along. There are tips on the website for how to introduce your bunny and cat (it is a long process, esspecially with a hunter cat)

Just do a lot of reading before you commit as they are such magical little things.
Well, I don't have a bunny, but I know someone who does. A bunny can be good indoors or out, but outside they might get more dirty. I would say change it's cage about once or twice a week and yes, they do get a bit smelly but not too bad. I think your cat would catch the bunny if it was not in it's cage, but the bunny will be safe if it stays in the cage. Plus, if the bunny is outdoors and it doesn't stay in a cage, it will probably run away. Bunnies poop a lot! So cleaning out their cage is very important. My friend has an indoor bunny, and they let it out of the cage and it runs around and they play with it. But they don't have any other pets. Also, bunnies shed and they should be brushed. I don't guess I know anything else, so I hope this helps!
Dwarf rabbits make very good pets. They don't take too much of your time and a extremely rewarding. They make loyal friends and are very affectionate.

I wouldn't advise you get a giant breed unless you are an experienced owner as they take a lot more time and effort.

Their urine does have a strong scent but so long as you keep them clean and the cage clean you shouldn't be able to smell them.

You can easily keep it outside in all weather ,so long as it has appropriate hutch and lots of protection from the elements. If you are keeping it outside also please make sure it has ample warm bedding.

I also have a cat and rabbits. My cat brings in rats and birds all the time .If you have both ,make sure that you have a secure hutch to keep your rabbit safe. Also introduce the rabbit to the cat by holding it securely near the cat so the cat can smell it and get a bit used to it- obviously making sure the cat doesnt attack the rabbit. )Never leave the rabbit alone with the cat .) This should mean that the cat shouldnt struggle to try and break the hutch to reach the rabbit because it already knows what it is. The cat really shouldn't be a problem- mine never has been.

Cages-- outside a hutch raised of the ground in a sheltered spot with a run and good protection from the elements should be fine .(you can get decent ones from garden centres or even build your own ) If you are planning on keeping your rabbit indoors then i suggest you visit the British House Rabbit Assosiation website. Write again if you want more info. I'll be pleased to answer any other questions you have.
bunnies are work.they need lots of love,

but if you are willing to do the work,it is worth it.

they can be litter trained.

they do not make allot of noise.

cats do not get along with bunnies.

they need a large cage to live in.

they like to chew allot.
i did have 1 bunny, my husband built a cage for it, he used wood for the frame and wire caging for the cage part of it, not the chicken wire but the other stuff. we put it downstairs and for the bedding we used the hampster shavings, we changed it quit often during the week, they really pee alot and poop. we had 2 other bunnies out at a farm one time too and the dogs somehow got into the cages and ate them! so be careful, one of my cats dented a cage before cause he wanted my birds so bad, so thats how bad cats can be...hope i helped!

I live here in the Philippines, and few months ago i saw on tv news that there's a place, a province i guess who live with monkeys. As in monkeys are everywhere they can freely go to a sari sari store, go to some houses and get some foods they wanna eat. Theyre kinda good and behave as well so i dont see any reason why u cnt have them as pets as long as you treat them well thers no problem i guess but u should have the permit to do so specially if its not allowed in ur own country.

How are English Bull Dog's as pets?

2009-12-06T19:02:00.001-08:00

I saw the recent PETCO commercial where the couple brings home an English Bull Dog puppy for their adult Bull Dog... and OMG I fell in love (I love any animal, but awwwwwwwwwww cute!). How are they as pets? Do they do ok in smaller homes?

How are English Bull Dog's as pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I would recommend you read all the information you can find on the breed. Ask your vet what they think. Go to a few dog shows and talk to the people there that have them.

They are a high maintenance breed because of the huge amount of health problems. I know a breeder of English Bulldogs that will tell potential owners they must have a lot of money in the bank for vet bills. Bulldog puppies are also high priced because they must always be born c-section.

The ones I've known have been very people friendly, but all were dog aggressive. I think that is pretty normal, so they should be socialized with other dogs as much as possible and at an early age.

How are English Bull Dog's as pets?

-(Myspace.com)

they are great dogs but have a lot of medical problems such as breathing problems and skin problems

How are English Bull Dog's as pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

well you will have problems-all bulldogs are subject to cancer/different types of bone cancer/and if u plan on breeding u have 2 do it artificially and have a c-section done on the mame-because they get so heavy they will drag their paws-which will peel/scrape the padding and can cause them to have 2 have leg amputated-then because they get so fat they wouldn't be able to get up on their own and move. they can get lots of ear infections and eye problems. but otherwise they are very sweet dogs-not mean like everyone thinks they are/pictures them to be.
They are sweet and gentle with people, but it is very important to socialize them as puppies with lots of people, and with lots and lots of dogs. If they are not socialized, they will be aggressive.
They are sweet dogs but they have a lot of neurological problems. If you get one make sure you get pet insurance.
Below are some sites I found on a quick search.

When looking for a puppy becareful. There have been a few scams going around where people say that the bulldog is out of the country and you can save it if you send them money.

To be on the safe side, visit any breeder that you wish to purchase from. Most good breeders won't ship the dog unless they have met you anyway.

Also spend some time around one. They are cute but they have that pushed in face and make a lot of noise when they breath. Drives me up the wall, but to each his own.
we just a got an english bulldog puppy a month ago, we looove him! of course bulldogs are prone to all kinds of health issues..ours already has cherry eye. we live in a small one bedroom apt. and he does just fine. bulldogs are indoor dogs, and they cant take heat too well. but they have soo much personality and are great pets..there's never a dull moment with ours! our puppy LOVES people, he is very friendly.

Are chinchillas really good pets?

2009-12-06T19:02:00.000-08:00

i just want to know if they make good pets, what i mean is do they like you when you spend alot of time with them, and do they like to be held for a little bit, i know every thing about them exept if they love you like you love them

Are chinchillas really good pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

My son has had 2 of them for about 6 years. While one of them will come to him %26amp; allow petting %26amp; holding, the other is very afraid%26amp; skittish. I think that, like ALL animals, their own temperament plays a part in how friendly they are.

They are cute, and VERY soft, but they chew things like crazy--they chewed a hole in their cage %26amp; kept escaping, they chewed up anything within reach of the cage (including the sides of his speakers %26amp; the wires), and even a shoe that was close.

They also can't tolerate warm weather, so if it gets at all hot where you live, they need to be in air-conditioning. They also need to take dust baths to keep their skin healthy, and that is VERY messy. The dust is very fine %26amp; it gets everywhere!

If you get one, enjoy it!

With gentle handling from a young age most chinchillas will become quite tame and bond closely with their owners, although sometimes they do not like to be held or cuddled. They are very active and playful. Chinchillas can be kept singly, and usually will do fine as same sex pairs especially if they are littermates or introduced at a young age.

Why do poor people have so many pets?

2009-12-06T19:01:00.002-08:00

Okay, due some renting and volunteer activities that I am in, I have to deal with people who are essentially destitute. One thing that always strikes me is even when they can't feed themselves or their children, they decide they need multiple pets. A bunch of cats is the most popular. I don't get it...are they against having a dollar in their pocket or is it because they think that just as plumbing and electricity are essential in a house, that a bunch of animals crapping inside your home is extremely important? Or is it because they particularly like that delicate blend of urine and fecal matter filling the house, and clinging to their clothes as a their own special perfume?

Why do poor people have so many pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I knew a chick in the suburbs when I was in a band. We used her house as practice space and the floor was literally covered with feces particles. She had two dogs. It was a slippery mist of feces dust. You couldn't see chunks but the smell was horrid and your feet slipped around when walking.

She was not poor by the way. She was younger than I was with her own house. She was just nasty.

Actually, cats help keep the number of mice and rats down, and a lot of poverty-stricken areas are overrun with mice and rats. It helps prevent a plague. Cats are actually a smart idea.
I am involved in vounteer activities and I don't find this to be true of poor people, that they have lots and lots of pets; but, it is true that having been down and out yourself, perhaps even still being that way, you tend to feel sorry for poor animals who have no where to turn, so you do what you can for them.
maybe it's just because they're not rich snobs
Animals are good for company and comfort!

Poor people enjoy looking after an animal especially if they are lonley and have no one else.

I mean can you blame them? its what keeps them happy, they love giving affection and having a friendly cat sit on their lap and they feel wanted and needed.

I have a cat and a dog, and im not poor but im not rich either.

They are great companions and not so hard to look after really, as long as you have a kennel, food to feed at least once a day and toys etc.. its not hard.

**EDIT**

I dont have kids, im 22 and i like having a dog and a cat for company and to look after, love and feed and give a good home, most people that poor dont have kids, if your talking about that poor...

Most people that dont want kids or just cant afford a kid choose pets as their kids instead.
It's a free world. You want to deny them the right to have animals? As an example, ninety percent of rural Africans have animals yet they are economically poor. But then again the African (generally speaking) spends 80% of the day outdoors - with his/ her ainmals grazing and basking in the sun all around him/ her. If the cats are starving/ going hungry then that's a totallt different story. Infact I think it's abuse.
Uh.........that's kinda relative. Some of them do I'm sure, but not as a general rule of thumb. And you also have to appreciate that many 'poor people' deal with alot of stress, emotionally and mentally. Having pets often helps them cope with day to day living because pets (unlike people) are EXTREMELY loyal, they don't judge you, they won't call you a 'stinking bum' behind your back, and no matter how rough their life is, they are STILL always happy to see you. It really just comes down to companionship and being able to interract with another 'person' or 'personality'. Having this type of interaction is essential for maintaining sanity and emotional wellbeing. And it has been said that a dogs (and cats) '6th' sense can sense human stress. So many dogs (and cats) have an uncanny ability to 'be there' when the person is dealing with high emotional stress, so in the eyes of a human it 'appears' that the animal understands and is concerned. So these also play a large role in their being so 'desired'.
destitute is not just about money it is also about mental well being stroking a cat can be very rewarding
I just think that you are very rude. Those people will give their life for their pets. Maybe only had one cat but couldn't afford to have it fixed and now have plenty. We also get all the other peoples pet's that don't want them any more. We have them all fixed but hell people just keep dumping them. Wake up in the morning and you have a new baby cat. Wow what a way to go. What do you do with it, KILL it!! Sorry I can't. So I feed it and give it love and attention. Rather my wife should I say.
We are all animals. And it's mostly about love and loyalty that they show to each other that keeps them living with each other. Do you ever notice that a hoomless man have a dog. It's because of the loyalty and heart of that person. People who have money sometimes don't even pay that much attention to their pets. And sometimes when you don't have money you still feel sane and content with having somone or something there stuggling right along side you but still have loyalty.
they don't have money to get them spaded so they keep reproducing.

%26lt;3
The poor people having many pet could be due to inferiority complex, the need to belong. It has become a common practice for rich people to have severe pets and society has come to accept this behavior as a sign of caring and status. In other to belong to this society the poor people also tend to behave in this manner.
Perhaps a lot of these people are hoarders..which is a mental illness.
A good question.. i answer.

see, the poor people are living without any fecility. They have no proper electricity, no gardens, no plants, no high class dogs, cats and a server to lookafter. The climate won't do any harm to them. i can say more. how is it possible? see, in the high class posh bungalow, man for garden, man for entry, man for cooking, man for cleaning, man for anything like driver, secretary etc., even otherwise they loose their real happiness. The poor is having nothing but so many pets. why and what for is the question. see, they have no proper doors to lock. They have no proper houses. Almost all dogs (you say stray dog) are there. if anyone made entry, they won't go without bite. They are having rice, the rats menace is there, so the cats. The dogs guarding their houses. The cats guarding the rice etc., from the rats. The posh bungalow dogs won't even bark, (a tution should be arranged to bark) but having all varieties of food. The poor people after they taking food, giving the balance. it eats. no special food for dogs. no dog biscuts, vitamines. They grow cattle like cow, goats, pigs. They sell for money to meet their daily expenses. The cow gives milk. They sell outside and some are using for them. They sell muttons. They sell fish. one thing, in the disturbance area or disturbance atmosphere, their children are well studying. One thing, because of the so many pets, their life is going. i know a girl from the slum area coming to a posh bungalow to take tution. You, see the so many pets are guarding them. Therefore, the poor people are having so many pet animals. (off the record.. may i tell you one fact, they are happy than the people living with all fecilities.. they won't suspect their wives, they sleep anywhere and no need a ''bed..and bedroom'' The same climate is to the posh bungalow is to the poor people, but the climate affects the rich not the poor)
pitty. people only feel sorry for animals. sad but true. people give money for the welfare of the dogs/cats. companionship is a factor too. if you treat an animal right it will always love you even if your poor.
they are so low in society, so the pets look up to them, and make them feel like they are worth something.... sounds creul, but it makes sence.

Do you 'celebrate' your pets birthday?

2009-12-06T19:00:00.003-08:00

My two adorable moggies are two next week and I was thinking of buying them a present each and having a bit of a party. Have I gone stark raving mad (finally) or do any of you guy's do the same thing for your pets? xx

Do you 'celebrate' your pets birthday?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Oh yes I always celebrate my pets' birthdays!!! I am a fellow nutcase...My 2 cats were 2 in april and I bought them a new bed, blanket, toys and special treats!!! I cooked chicken for their tea too!! My kids love a birthday party even for our pets!!! P.S Any excuse for a glass of chardonnay really!!

Do you 'celebrate' your pets birthday?

-(Myspace.com)

Goodness, I have NO idea when my cats birthday's are - they are both rescue cats so we roughly know their ages but that's about it. They do however get a Christmas present (and catch their own presents through the year - mice, birds, frogs etc.)

Do you 'celebrate' your pets birthday?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

aww tiddles just loves the sound of opening the can of chicken and prawn, and meows as if to say 'daddy thankyou for this birthday present'
I have a friend who does this with her pets, and I think she's absolutely crazy.

I doubt that helped much as it was 50/50!
I don't throw a party for my dog but I give him a cupcake his birthday is September 23 he will be 15 (I hope he makes it he's so damn old)
Yes :)

I celebrate Muppet's birthday, get him a present, call him his real name all day (which must create a doggie identity crisis now that I think of it...) but can never be bothered to have a party.
I always celebrate my cat's birthday! I give him some of his favorite canned cat food, a new toy, and some extra play time and attention. I've done this with all my pets, as far back as I can remember!
i have a dog and a rabbit, and although i know what month each was born i have no idea what date, so i don't have a birthday for them, although i buy each of them a special Christmas present to make up for it. (MY DOG ACTUALLY GUARDS HERS TILL XMAS DAY THEN RIPS AT THE PAPER)

They seem to like that and don't look as though they have missed out on not having a birthday.

If you are stark raving mad, i must be to, so do what you feel is best, and forget what anybody else thinks, life is just to short to worry about what others think.

hope they have a great birthday.
when it is my cats birthdays i just get them like a toy or treats or something but cat dont understand what birthdays are so they will just think they have done something good.
Sometimes. I don't know the exact date, but I know he was born sometime in January based on bringing him home from the Humane Society when he was 11 weeks.

We've had a "dog party" in January where all our dog's "friends" come over. We have games with prizes like coolest trick, who can find their owner faster....

There is a dog bakery in our town too. They make dog treats. They also make cakes for dogs and we have splurged on that. It's silly but fun.

Our dog has no idea it's his birthday, he woke up to a great day whenever we have the dog party.
aint got a clue when any of my pets were born
I celebrate them lol they probably have no clue wats goin on but i do hehe me and my neighbours bring their dogs over and we play 'pass the parcal (as thay all like to rip the paper and can small the treat), we play fetch, we do races lol theres all sorts. Its nice to c them all happy and excited too. and another plus is that they are always knackered after it so they sleep for the rest of the day and all of the night hehe.

Last year we got them all party hats haha (im not mad, honest!) of course they didnt stay on more than 5 seconds!

Go on, have a party! U'l enjoy it more probs but nevermind.
We don`t
i celebrate my 3 dogs birthdays we got them when they were 8 week old puppies,i don't have a party for them but we buy a specially made dog cake and buy each of them a toy wrapped up,
I always celebrate my pooch's birthday! we usually have a BBQ for him and get a cake and have fun! its an excuse to have friends and family round, but even my dog max gets presants!
Yes i would throw my pets a birthday party if i knew when they were born.
We never do anything big, but for my dog we always gather the family (just the ones who live in the house with her) give her a hostess cupcake and sing happy birthday. We usually get her something like some treats or a toy, so nothing big but we definitely celebrate it!
I have seven cats and I know the exact birthdays of four. I do a fish slop for these birthdays, consisting of freshly steamed fish with bones removed, a few tins of hi life tuna, a tin of expensive cat food and their usual biscuits. I mix it together and dish it up in their bowls they are in heaven. I also do this christmas morning how I manage it with the normal xmas stuff going on I'll never know! I have a birthday this Thursday King will be 6. I still remember walking back into the room soon after he had been born all those years ago knowing straight away he would be mine how could I not celebrate a thing like that?!
no...... i do the same thing. :) iluv my pet so much... they're like people too!
Not really, you haven't gone mad but it's not something I do. I don't because they probably have absolutely no idea what's going on, so they wouldn't appreciate the party all too much.
Not really. I don't even know what my other dog's, the Yorkshire Terrier's, birthday is! I got him from my shelter, and I forgot to ask when he was born. It would be really cute to have a small party for your pets, though, and bring in some gifts. Honestly, though, I'm not fond of it and don't do any celebrations for them. I have too many pets anyway. I'd rather take care of them than celebrate their birthday because I wouldn't want to waste any time. But, you aren't mad crazy! You love your animals and want to throw them a small surprise. There's a lot of owners that do that! I mean, I would do it, but then I won't. It's confusing for me!
I have two cats; one is 8 and the other just turned 2 and every year I bake a cake and have a little party for the kitties. I give them an extra treat and buy a small toy or a little something for them. (No! the cats get no cake)
On my pets birthdays I always give them a special treat. However, I don't throw them a party...that is pushing the barriers of maddness.
With 9 ferrets and 8 dogs, it's hard to have a "party". However, I have written down their approximate and direct birthdays and ages on a calendar. Usually, we give them a pet friendly cupcake or extra ferret treat, sing to them, tell them it's their birthday, and just pay extra special attention to them. If there are any other treats, birthday boys and girls get theirs first, and after everyone has had their share, they get any extras that are left over.
i always take my pets out on their b-day 2 do something fun it usually is the park Lou, my rat terrier, loves the park and we go swimming and get him a new collar every year
My dog will be turning 2 on August 19th. For her birthday I'm inviting my friend and her dog over so they can play. I will make cupcakes for people, buy treats or even a doggie cake, get her a couple of new things, and have fun.

I think that an animals birthday should be celebrated just like people's birtdhays. She is like my little baby and I love her so much! I hope people love their animals as much as we do! Hannah
of course i do!!!!!!

in the past, i have bought mini party hats and put them on my 3 guinea pigs :) they were so cute!!!!!!!!!!

and for my dogs,i bake a cake and put dog biscuits all over the top. and for my cats, i go to the store, get some fishsticks, bake a cake, and put the fishsticks on top! and for my horse, i give him a day of galloping in the meadow, baths (he loves them), eating LOTS of carrots, and a day of grooming and making him all nice and handsome :)
Yes we do we have 4 dogs range from 6yrs to 1yr which will be on the 18th of august,we buy birthday cake just a basic sponge with jam and have candles for them aswell,sad eh but what the hell we love them and they love us.
I do, we celebrate ours, so why don't we celebrate theirs.

They are living creatures with rights.

Every year I have a party for my cat "Buxton" who is now 17.
I have two dogs and when it is their birthdays I buy them both presents and give them some special dog food rather than their normal one. They love ripping open the paper on the presents - its quite funny. We do the same at christmas and they love it :) xxx
we do the same every year they gets presents and the kids make them cards its the same at xmas they are apart of our family ,we get them bday cake as well lol but they don't like it so the kids will eat it we love doing stuff with our dogs ,they love it xx

Why does sims 2 celebration stuff disappear in my game when i install Pets?

I installed the main game, Pets, family fun stuff, glamour stuff, and celebration struff, but when I play the game, the objects in celebration stuff were missing. I uninstalled Pets and tried the game, the Celeb stuff were there. But when I reinstalled Pets, it happened all over again. What am I doing wrong? Thanks guys.

Do budgies make good pets?? ?? ??

2009-12-06T19:00:00.001-08:00

Because I might get a budgie at my dads, are they good pets, I need info. Do they smell, are they easy to take care of? I NEED INFO!

Do budgies make good pets?? ?? ??-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I have had the opportunity to hand feed the english and american parakeets from 7 days old. I had some rare genetics and that is why i kept the blood line going.

They make fantastic pets if you can find a breeder that hand feeds them. I suggest you find a breeder that hand feeds them and never purchase two. Only buy one. Never put in a mirror, happy hut or a bobbing bird.

Find one that is on a pelleted diet and eating veggies and fruit. This will allow your bird to live about 20-25 yrs.

My first budgie is still alive at the age of 28. So the diet is important to the life of it.

They are also great talkers. The only way they smell is if you dont keep up on the cleaning of the cage. The seed diet makes the cage messy, so try to find a breeder the feeds a pelleted diet and eating a variety of veggies, pasta, meat, cheese, and what you eat for supper. On that diet alone, it can live as long as mine is living. A seed diet just makes one heck of a mess with the seed hulls going every where.

But know if you choose to get one, it's soley your responsibility to take care of it.

Good luck!

Do budgies make good pets?? ?? ??

-(Myspace.com)

yup. they are. they can be your friends, like dogs, but they dont need that much attention everyday. no they dont smell, especially if you bathe them. its the usual water, food, toys, and ''

change the newspaper at the bottom of the cage where they poop daily" routine. ask around your circle of friends who may have them as pets for clearer info, as they are experienced owners!!!

Do budgies make good pets?? ?? ??

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

Budgies are great pets! They are happy little birds that sing, talk, and do tricks.

Unlike the last answer, budgies do need LOTS of attention or else they will get extremely bored. Talk to them everyday and play with them. They do not smell. Very easy to take care of.
Yes, they can make great pets. But they also require work.

They need time out of their -large- cage to play with you every single day. They need vegetables, fruit, etc every day (feeding nothing but seed usually kills them after a few years - malnutrition. pellet only diet also causes complications which can be fatal). They also need lots of toys.

As long as you change the newspaper every day and clean the cage at least once a week, it shouldn't smell.

They can be terrific little companions, they are playful and fun to be around.
yes they make very good pets. they like veggies and fruit for fruit they like apples the best and for veggeis they like carrots and sweet corn. just dont feed them chocolate and avacado those can kill them.

to tell if it is a female or male look at their cere if female it will be a light brown or pink and if in heat it will be brown and crusty. and if male it will be blue. if very young it will be pinkish purple.
They are great pets. If you want a bird that is active I would suggest 2 American parakeets (budgies), because they tend to be more active, and play with toys. They also talk a lot. If you want to get a more laid back bird, get an English Budgie, they are laid back, they are quieter, and they are nicer, I think, they dont bite as much. But the only bad thing is, is that he doesnt play with any toys inside of his cage.
yes,i find them very amuseing birds,i have two of my own.as with all animals one has to care for their pets and there is a certain amount of work in order to keep the pets healthy and comfortable.as for a budgie,well they dont smell,they stay in their cage and theyre entertaining. now for the reality of owning a budgie,theyre messy,thats their only fault,but other than that budgies make great pets! im enjoying mine. have fun!

Do reptiles make good pets?

2009-12-06T19:00:00.000-08:00

A freind told me some of them are very hard to keep as pets because they're agressive.

Do reptiles make good pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I think they really do. I have 2 baby red-eared sliders. They are soooo fun to watch. I don't need a TV for entertainment. I have THEM! They do everything together. It's so cute. 閳?br>

There are things to do to take care of them though... just like any other pet. With turtles, you need a tank, filter, basking area, and food. And they are happy with that. They won't slobber, scratch the furniture, leave fur everywhere, etc. They are pretty inexpensive compared to the common cats and dogs. And you don't need to go to the vet, unless there's something wrong with them. I've never taken my turtles to the vet so far.

Do reptiles make good pets?

-(Myspace.com)You're welcome! I actually had friends over. And they couldn't stop watching my turtles. They are that amusing! ;) Report It

Do reptiles make good pets?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

It really depends on what you are wanting in a pet. If you want to just observe, reptiles are great. If you want affection and something to play with... get a dog or cat.
I have 2 ribbon snakes (like garter snakes) and they are not aggressive at all. Actually, I haven't run into a lot of aggressive reptiles unless they just aren't fed regularly.

As the other person said, if you want something to play with and cuddle -- don't get a reptile. They are fun to watch though, if that's all you want.
Reptiles make great pets for people who can't have pets. The lack of fur and dander mean that even those with the worst allergies can keep reptiles with no problem. The stunning array of species and colors means you can almost always find one that suits you just right. Fairly low maintance (depending on the species) and fairly easy housing (also depending on the species) make reptiles a great choice. Just make sure you do your research and learn everything you possably can about the animal you're considering, and reptiles can be a very rewarding pet. Many can be handled and carried around, and while they may not be "cuddly" it is a really neat experiance to have a lizard or snake crawl around on you.
For some people, yes, reptiles make good pets. It all depends on what you're looking for in a pet. I would not say that all reptiles are aggresive, because just like in dogs personalities in reptiles differ greatly between breed and individual. I would definately suggest that you do some research before you decide that all reptiles are one way or the other. Personally, I am very partial to snakes. I hope this helps!
There are some reptiles that make fantastic pets, and others who really don't. I have a wide assortment of reptiles, a few of which I love to handle and play with and a few others that are just for observing. My good "pet quality" herps are all of my snakes (ball pythons, red tailed boa, cal king), my bearded dragon, any my uromastyx. The "eye candy" are my crocodilians (dwarf caiman, american alligator) and my leopard geckos. All of these except for the crocodilians make excellent pets. But there are some reptiles, such as chamilions that stress very easy and often die even in the care of the most experienced herpetologists. There are a lot of reptiles that require too much specialized care for them to be really good pets, especially for a beginner. Snakes are probably the easiest to care for, followed by lizards like geckos and bearded dragons.

One of the great things about reptiles is that most of them require very little care. Once you have the bases covered properly such as heating and lighting, then you can, for the most part, just sit back and enjoy. Snakes will eat once a week or even less frequently and don't require a lot of enclosure maintenance. They don't have to be walked or loved on every day like a dog or bird, so if you don't feel like messing with them on any given day, they won't mind a bit. Some reptiles have more personality and character than others, and some show more intelligence than others, so you would just have to decide what you would want out of your pet before choosing the reptile.

Some types of reptile are agressive by nature, but not all of them. My dwarf caiman is probably the most agressive animal I've ever come in contact with, but all of my other pet herps, including the gator, don't get agressive at all. Do your research before you commit to any pet, and that will tell you whether that particular species is agressive, or any other traits about them that may or may not make a suitable pet for you. If you like reptiles, then there is one out there for you, you just have to find it.
Coming from a person that owns about 30 of them only a few are aggressive, like the Monitors. And our Iguana That we saved. It all depend though on what you get. If you want a beginner reptile, I would go for either a Ball Python, which are easy to take care of and docile, or leopard Gecko's Just make sure you get all the info on them before you purchase them.
well depends on what you get but if you want a easy to take care of pet you cant go wrong with reptiles
yes!!!!!!!

they dont need food often as warm blooded animals and they can be cuddled(:

snakes are awesome and dont need food for weeks and they dont smell like mammals

i personally have 9 snakes,5 lizards,3 turtles,and 1 tuatara

reptiles are only aggressive if you leave them alone paying no attention to them.if you handle them every so often they are very loveable;D

I DONT reccomend turtles they are dirty

they dirty up their tank sooooooo quickly and are the only reptiles that smell D:
I love my snake, it is great. I can take it out and watch it and hold it and it is really smooth so i like to pet it. It is not at all aggressive but that is one of the characteristics of a corn snake. It is also very quiet and i don't have to worry about it a lot. It is really just there for when i want it. The thing is that i do have to clean the cage and feed it. The thing with snakes is you can't feed it pellets or canned food. I have to feed my snake either dead or alive mice or rats. Which takes some time to get used to.
no.

Who has their pets provided for in their will?

2009-12-06T18:59:00.003-08:00

Is this a weird thing? We have no kids, but 5 pets. If something were to happen to us, we want to make sure they don't end up in a shelter, but get to live out their lives naturally, in a home. We want to also give money to the people who end up taking them in. What would be a fair amount? Two dogs, two cats and a rabbit.

Who has their pets provided for in their will?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

Well I thought I was a bit "weird" because I do have my dogs provided for in my will. It is my worst fear that if I pass away my dogs will be given to a shelter or worse put down. I have consulted with all of my family members , and discussed that they ( my dogs) are a part of my family since I have no children. Once they knew how much I loved them , they were more receptive to the idea that I would stipulate dollars and care instructions in my will.

I have designated the amount , to be distributed annually , to the family member who provides the care as instructed. The amount is twice the actual cost of food, shots, routine vet visits. I also have a special sum designated for unforeseen costs, such as a drug needed, or surgery. if this sum is unused it will be donated to a rescue group.

Who has their pets provided for in their will?

-(Myspace.com)

Hopefully you will both out-live your pets, but I understand your concern for them.

Why not make a will in their favour but don't mention there is money going to the people who have the animals. This could entice some unscupulous person to have the animals just for the sake of the money and not care about the animals at all.

You could also contact a local animal shelter and ask their advice on this. I'm sure they'd be only too pleased to help you.

Who has their pets provided for in their will?

-(Myspace code myspace.com)

well you could do one better, find some one willing to move in to your home and care for them, then they dont have to leave or go throught that stress. as they would be in enuff already. i plan on havin my pets included in my will but they will come second to my son, then again my son can care for them when im gone. but seeing as you dont have that just talk to family members and treat them like kids, (had to do this when my son was born, finding people that would care for him if something happend with both of his parents) so just do it with your pets and put it in a will. cost or price is up to you. best of luck
i have, as i have tortoises i need too they are only 50 years old so could quite easily out live me, they have been handed down once in a will, my dogs are provided for as well as i do not want them ending up in a shelter and going to a horrible home so all our family has left their dogs to the care of the dog lovers with in the family ( we just best hope we don't all die at the same time) animals are family so like my children they all have guardians as well, best of luck with your answers honey.

Does anyone remember Giga Pets?

2009-12-06T18:59:00.002-08:00

lol I remember I had a limited edition gold one back in fourth grade(around 97 maybe a little before or after). But does anyone else remember these? They were these little battery operated digital pets that first came out in a dog or a cat. They would come on this little keychain and you would have to feed it and walk it and play with it? aaahhhh those were the days...

Does anyone remember Giga Pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

I had the 101 Dalmation one and a bunny one. They were both.... well, the dog one was rather annoying at times. The bunny one was kool though.

I liked the original Tamagotchi best. :) It was so sad when they went home.

Lol is right. Those were the days. Like we needed a key chain? Just hopefully we did not need to hang a house key on it.

I am still fond of the old online pets too. And the ones you can play on your own PC.

My grandson made some games for me when he was 10 using Flash. Those were really the good old days 鑴?/p>

Do you have funny pets?

2009-12-06T18:59:00.000-08:00

I have 3 dogs and 1 cat. They are always making me laugh. I think I have very strange animals. LOL

Tell me what weird things your pets do that make you laugh.

Do you have funny pets?-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

We have this goofy calico cat that drinks cold coffee by dipping her paw in it and licking it off, and she does the same thing with pepsi. When she gets out of the litterbox, she "sweeps" the floor all around it, and then goes over by her food bowl and "sweeps" the floor there too.

I think all pets are strange like that...what amazes me every time is how smart my dog is.
my pitbull is afraid of the wind
My gerbil is funny! She comes when u call her name and likes to be photographed!
LOL! Oh, yes! I have a really crazy dog. The latest "thing" she's doing is refusing to go outside to go to the bathroom unless someone WATCHES her go. If it's sunset or after dark, I have to shine a flashlight on her so she can go. If I don't go out with her when she wants to go out, she'll just stand there at the door and not go in the yard nor "do her business."

Her preferred place to go potty is around the corner, back by the wall, but she wants me to walk over there with her and to stand there while she goes. If I start to walk back towards the door before she's finished, she stops going and runs ahead of me to beat me to the door.

It's bizarre but it's not as bad as when she went through the phase where she didn't want to walk outdoors and wanted me to carry her out the door and deposit her outside. For awhile, she refused to walk through the laundry room which leads to the back door. I have no idea why. But she's over that now.

She also loves to hide under my bed. It's hilarious watching this 35 lb. dog squeeze herself under the bed, she wiggles like a lizard or something. The thing is that she'll get under there and leave her tail sticking out. Now that's funny.
My cat talks in her sleep. She'll just start "chirping", and she'll be asleep still.
my cat is so slo she crack me up
I had a dachshund who would leap like an antelope over tall grass and show. It doesn't sound funny now, but when you see a tiny dog disappearing and reappearing in grass, its very cute!
I'm serious, I think my cat hears voices. We'll be sitting on the couch and suddenly she perks up her ears, looks in another room, and then gets up and leaves as if someone called her in there. She also sees imaginary things on the floor and attacks them. I get a lot of good laughs out of her!
i love dogs,, "my big sweeties"
Oh this makes me miss my pets (I am away at college right now). My cat Jezabel is so crazy! She likes to play with this one toy soo much! It is this fishing pole type of toy that has a little mouse toy attached to a long string and if you drag it on the floor and then lead it right over the top of her head she will jump up in the air and do a flip! She is so cute!!
Haha. Scientists are actually suggesting that pets may have a sense of humor :)

my dog likes to run in circles around the lawn in particular patterns whenever I'm outside...its a bit weird, i have to say :)
I love animals and all pets of mine are funny!^ ^

I had 12 cats in house ( 2,3,4 years ago!)
haha, all 3 of them. just there personality's in general. one prances when they run, it looks really funny. and my pug is so fat that he acually has tears coming out of his eyes when he dont get food. he gets reallllly mad...and he runs into things all the time, and every time he tries to itch his butt he rolls in circles bc he is to fat..and my other dog just acts plan funny. =P
Well hopefully your animals make you laugh... my dog runs around in the yard chasing leafs.... and squirrels.... And my other dog just sits around watching her being lazy..... And well my two cats, one is about 20lbs, and is so stupid if you step towards it it does like a backflip and runs away.... and my other cat... welll its fun to drag a stick in front of her and watch her pounce at it.... so ya, dogs and animals are weird, and mostly for our joy I think. So laugh at your weird pets...
I have a very fat cat that loves to lay on his back get his belly rubbed and he likes to sit on the couch like a person, belly facing out. Sometimes when sitting on the couch he'll even rest his elbow on a pillow like a person. He's very funny and weird.
my fish was trying to tell me a joke last night, but all i could hear was tiny bubbles.
I have a pet python named Spencer.

He keeps me entertained and I must admit, I feel well trained right now.

I have learned allot from him.

He is very gentle and enjoys my 3 small grandchildren when they come over to play with him.

They are very gentle with himand are unafraid.
My cat thinks he is a dog. He comes when you whistle and call "here little dog." He is so weird.
i have a blind cat that chases flying bugs.
well i have a rabit and if you sit down to try to get her to come into your lap so you can pet her she circles you like 50 times and then comes i dont think that she reolizes that my boby is that big (compared to her at least)
my cats are crazy. they will knock anyone over when thy play
i have 4 cats, two hamsters, and 1 dog. my animals are always amusing me, especially my two youngest cats. they are females and sisters and barely a yr old. one's name is morticia and the other is lily blu. they are always chasing my 50lb dog (pixi) through the house and she is terrified of them and then one time we had a mattress proped up against the wall because we were moving and there was a chair about four ft away from the mattress (close enough to where if the mattress fell it would hit the chair-that was not intentional though) and morticia climbed up on the mattress and lily blu was asleep on the chair and she was going to dive bomb lily but then decided that it was too far, but she had already started to jump and had to grab the mattress to keep from falling into the floor. well when she did that, it caused the mattress to start falling and when it got close enough, morticia jumped onto the couch and acted like she was going to sleep and had did nothing wrong and about that time the matress falls onto the chair and lily scaring her almost to death because she was oblivious to everything that was going on. all morticia did was raise her head up to watch it fall on her sister and purr. lily blu was not injured during this just scared. another thing that they do is lay next to the hamsters cage, which causes the hamsters to get mad and make really strange noises...they sound kinda like a mad squirrel.
i have 2 dogs and they fool around with my kids they run around with their food and end up droppng them and then my kids start throwing it back to the food bowls..then my dog will not eat from the bowl! she takes out a little food then eats it on the floor
yes lol very funny
no

Do turtles make good pets??

2009-12-06T18:58:00.003-08:00

my moms friend is giving away two red eared sliders they come with a filter the neccisary lights and a large tank? i have never owned a turtle before but have always wanted one. What do you think about them as pets? thnx=]

Do turtles make good pets??-Myspace pets www.myspace.com

awwww thats the kind of turtle i have!! her name is betty boop lol they are great pets they some times can b a little dirty but as long as you clean there tanks they will be fine! they also are awsome to watch

They're lazy and probably easy to clean after.
as long as they're smallish. but they dont require much attention which is good, but the food can get expensive
I like turtles bu t if you are looking for something to be affectionate. You will be disappointed. They don't really like being messed with and would rather be left alone. they are fun to watch.
They are good pets for people that don't have kids around their house, because if you don't immediatly wash your hands once you are done messing with them you can get sellomenella.
turtles are cool make sure it eats bugs (try killing bugs with a bug zapper) make sure it has lots of water! best of luck!- Spinner
If you are not looking for a high maintenance pet, you got it! Turtles don't do much of anything. Mainly, just up keep.
It depends on what you look for in a pet, i like soething cuddly that will run around and play, obviously a turtle is not for me. If you're looking for something that looks cool and itsnt alot of work then a turtle is prolly good.
no... they do nothing but eat and crap.
kool to look at but noit much else cleaning their tank can be a pain in the butt, and they won't know who you are but they are cool to have
yea if you give it the proper things it needs. there cool and slight boring at the same time to watch butthey never run away and they are friendly too!
yeah if u know how 2 take care of them.

make sure u have a long aquarium with space and a fake floating rock so the turtles can take a break also have a heated area best bet is 32 put a heating lamp facing the rock. b/c turtles are cold blooded
I think turtles are one of the best pets...they are lazy, they dont make noise, and they are easy to clean up after...yea i think they make good pets...and you can say they are pretty safe around kids...and if you have the snapping ones you can put them somewhere where a baby doesnt reach turtes are easy...and you dont haveto worry about where tehy are they are always int he same spot you left them
Yes, they make decent pets. The Red eared slider is the most common turtle to keep as pets, because they are pretty easy to keep and care for. However, be aware that they are semi-aquatic, which means keeping water in the tank. Even with a filter, it has to be cleaned regularly. The water can become a rather slimy stinky mess pretty quickly if you don't keep up with the cleaning routine. They also carry salmonella, so always wash your hands thoroughly after handling them. Their water also has to be kept warm with a heater, especially in the winter, or they will die.
no turtles r not good pets they r boreing and stinky and grose!! i was the same way and i got 1 and then gotrid of it because it was so smelly...i hav had 12 turtles (large ones)in a swimming pool ...we rescued them from ppl who did not want them so ya turtles r grose...
I have that kind of turtle! As long as they are not too small (any smaller than half of your palm) then they are old enough to pretty much thrive on their own. They are really super easy to take care of but the only drawback is that they do get really big and they are kind of boring.
if you like quiet contemplating,just enjoying nature,turtles-tortoises or most reptiles make great pets,although it is hard to spot when their sick,because they are so different from us.if it;s a true water turtle,it's pretty much bound to it's habitat;wheather it's natural or a pet store type setup.if it's a tortoise,their much more flexable and interactive.but anyone who wants a turtle gets my vote.do a little research to find what's best for you.
i have two red-eared sliders. they are three years old. they require a tremendous amount of time, money, space and a great deal of knowledge. they can be trained. some are friendly and some are not. i have them in a pond with bricks for them to bask. the water is about two feet deep. i really enjoy them. caron
well, to me turtles make awsome pets. while i was camping this past november i found a turtle really close to our fire trying to keep from freezing to death and i desiced to keep it as my pet. i got really close to it and it was probobly the best pet i will ever have

it is NOT hard at all 2 take care of and my turtle got to know me so well that when i filled up my bathtub 4 him to swim in and let him play for a while i could put my hand in there and he would swim strait onto my hand

to me turtles are the EASTIST pets to take care or the COOLEST to watch and the SWEETEST

i love turtles!! [no i am not crazy]
I have turtles and tortoises as pets. I happen to love them....

HOWEVER, there are many drawbacks to having these types of reptiles as pets.

1. They are not cute/cudlely, and they do not usually like being held. They are more like fish, fun to watch, not to touch.

2. They require a lot of space!!! For each 1" of turtle, you need AT LEAST 10 gallons of water. They do grow, and quickly... The myth that they stay small all their life if kept in a small tank is COMPLETELY FALSE.

3. Turtle habitats as they get older can be expensive. Fish tanks can be difficult to clean and you MUST have a very powerful filtration system, because they are dirty little critters.

Turtles are pets for reptile enthusiasts, not for general "pet" fun. There are many websites that can give you more information than I have provided.

I love to watch my turtles and tortoises, but the joy of owning them is letting them do what they do best, which is bask in the sun.
At first it a cute little turtle..the it will grow....then it will make the water green...the water will stink...and you will want to give it away....get something else...after awile you give up the turtle anyway..gl
They would make great pets if you have the time and money to care for them. Just remember to do research on them befor you get them so you are prepared! They are cute and funny to watch. Good luch with them!
Personaly i think turtles are great pets! They are easy to maintain. Many people find them boring as they dont move very quick but they are very amusing. If my mums friend was giving them away i would take them! :)
they are very cool pets take them and water should be high leveled if the turtles are babies then u should feed him/her feeder fish

http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0geu.0zrrhGiR...
Turtles are the type of pets that are fun to look at but you can't do much with them, like pet them. Also, make sure that if you get them that you keep the tank clean as much as possible, because they DO stink!

Non-venomous snakes as pets?

2009-12-06T18:58:00.002-08:00

I am looking for names of non-venomous (small) snakes that can be kept as pets.

Any suggestions.......?

Non-venomous snakes as pets?

There's quite a few snakes which are suitable - check out this website which should give you all the info you need !

http://exoticpets.about.com/cs/snakes/a/...
Lizards are better.
I have a corn snake, she is approx 1 year old now and she don't take much lookin after. She has never bit me yet, and the more she is handled, the more used to you she gets. she only needs 1 mouse per week, and you can get all your requirements from a good reptile shop. Happy snake hunting !
corn snakes, royal pythons (known as ball pythons in the US),

hognose snakes (western, and eastern), rosy boa's, sand boa's, dumeril's boa's. House snakes, Rainbow boa's.

look these all up, some are the most beautiful animals i have ever seen, and i have owned several of the above. never have i gotten so much pleasure from a pet.

they are also all very-moderately easy to keep.
corn snakes although they get over 6 feet long they are the nicest snakes also ball pythons they stay preatty small *thinks* are pythons constrictors i forget.... ne ways if you get one i suggest to feed them live mice sometimes it's a little creepy to hear one screeech for it's life but it is more humane
Colubrids are generally the best pet snakes. These include corns, kings, milks, rat snakes, ect. I would stay away from the pythons, even ball pythons get 5 feet long and a pretty big girth. Which ever species of snake you choose please do your research before you buy. I suggest feeding the snake frozen foods (thawed). I know there is a lot of debate and it is all a matter of opinion. Live foods carry disease, parasites, can turn and attack the snake (seen it happen many times)and are harder to keep. Also when a snake is fed live it associates movement with food, not the smell. they tend to be more food driven and may mistake a hand or finger for lunch. Also feed it in a seperate container, so it does not associate the cage opening to food comming. Just a suggestion. Good luck!
if you get a corn snake get a male the colour of the male is a lot prettier than the female, and don't feed it on live mice, you can buy mice from any good pet shop that have been bred for the purpose of feeding snakes and they are humanly killed, if you give a live mouse to a corn snake, the mouse can bite the corn snake and damage it, although it will lose the fight
corn snake, grass snake, kingsnake, royal/burmese python, boa constrictor( but you don't want one of them. it will grow big enough to eat you!) anything called python as they dont bite, they constrict. You could also try a milk snake but they have terribletemperaments!

get a gecko or lizard instead!
Kenyan sand boa, they're very friendly and the kids can GENERALY handle them safely. They are also easy to keep. Ditto Brown House Snake.
corn snake

young pythons
Corn snake is the perfect one to go for if it's your first.

Make sure you do your research on vivarium, heating, UV tubes etc.

I had mine for for over 10 years and never had any problems. Lovely and gentle when handling too.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the most common first pet snake, the garter snake. They're easy to catch,easy to feed, and if you want to, you can always release them where you caught them, if you decide you don't want a pet snake. Also you might try a corn snake, milk snake, king snake ,hog nose snake (western), queens snake, ring-neck snake, black rat snake, pine snake, bull snake etc.
there is a guy that just posted 4 minutes ago trying to rid himself of his snake.... ask him...
well mine name is snnakie cute isent it

Sometimes when I install new ones I also have to "update" Direct X.

Try reinstalling Direct X 9, and if that doesn't work... Make sure your screen is running in 32-bit colour mode.
