    Milk

    i gave my cat a capful of milk. is that too much? By capful, i mean the cap off the milk jug. i read somewhere that cats can get indigestion from too much of it, but i was just giving my cat a teeny bit as a treat. Will that still be bad, or is a little bit ok?

    Natural Purrz Treats

    Can anyone tell me if these are any good? Does anyone give these treats to their cat? The ingredients seem okay to me, but I think they should be inspected by professionals like you guys! ;) Chicken, ground barley, ground rice, vegetable glycerin, malted barley, tapioca, gelatin, water...

    Greenie Cat Treats

    I recently went to a petstore to look at some cat treats called Greenies. They're really popular, and I heard they were really good. I looked at the ingredients, and everything seemed fine except for this one ingredient "...preserved with mixed Tocopherols". What's that? I looked it up, but the...

    The Chin That Ran Away

    Well, I really don't know what to say. At my work, we have this one chin in a humongous cage. And he ran away!! Well, the cage he was in was quite old, and it's actually two cages that have locks to connect them. There is one door that is open, and it connects the two cages. Apparently, the chin...

    Pictures of Kalani

    Here are some pictures of Kalani. Unfortunately, she's not my horse, she's owned by an equestrian center called Langley 204. She's such an angel, and she had such funny antics. Before my lesson and trail ride, I brushed her and tacked her up, and during this time, she had finished her hay...

    Talk about dreams!

    What are some dreams you guys can remember? I remember this one dream I had, where I think I was a hamster! I woke up, and I was surrounded by this sawdust, and I had a furry body, and I looked down and saw my little pink paws. I think I was a dwarf hamster. I was under that impression, for some...

    Cannibalized!

    Yesterday, I came to work at 7 am, and I had to make sure that all the animals had food and water before opening the store at 9 am. I was doing my rounds, and I peeked in the mice's cage. I saw two mice that were snacking on what looked like a peach. Karen and Pia bring fresh fruit often, for...

    Disagreeable info

    I went and checked out some hamster books out of the library, and one book said that giving a hamster a bath is not okay. The other book said that sometimes, you can give a hamster a bath before a showing event. What is right?

    Catnip Q

    This might seem like a weird question, but what exactly is catnip? Like, I know how it looks like some sort of a herb that's crushed, and green, but what does the cat do with it? Is the cat supposed to eat it? Play with it? If the cat's supposed to eat it, do you put the catnip in a bowl along...

    Safe Fruit

    What is some safe fruit for hedgies? Is honeydew ok? What about canteloupe? I was thinking about bringing some honeydew tomorrow to give to Quillow and Maurice at work. How about citrus? Like oranges, for example... Is there anything I need to cook a bit to make softer?

    Can Hammies Love?

    Can hamsters love you in the similar way that a dog can? I've been observing hamsters before, but they don't show the same affection or recognition of their owner...Is it possible to love and care for a hammy so well, that he'll learn to love you and show love in return?

    Favourite songs

    What are your most fav songs? Right now, I can't get enough of "La chanson des vieux amants" by Jaques Brel. Oh my god, it's the saddest love song I've ever heard. I'm also listening to "Let it Rock"...

    What to do for an inactive cat?

    I was wondering, since I'm getting a cat soon, how do I provide exercise for him? I know he doesn't really play with toys, buuuuuut...do I lead him on walks? My grandpa used to do that with his indoor cat :p

    I was almost fired!

    Ok, so I work for a huge Canadian chain called ****. I loved working there for the first three months, but now I hate it. For March, we have this sale on anything 15% off. BUT, here's the con: no return, no refund, no exchange. Last week, this one lady wanted to do this one refund. I looked at...

    Cat as healthy as possible...

    What are some ways to ensure that my cat won't get sick? I'm not worried about paying vet bills or anything, but it would be better for my cat if he is kept healthy and happy. I don't have Smoky at the moment, I'm getting him in two months, but I wanna make the necessary adjustments to make sure...

    Kitty Food

    I'm so excited! I'm getting a cat soon!!! My friend is going to theatre school in England and she's giving me her cat. He's a sweetheart. His name's Smoky. He's on Purina Cat Chow right now. I dunno if that's a good kind of food or not. I looked on the computer, checking out brands like Innova...

    Chinnie colors!

    Carrots for chins?

    Hey everyone! I have a chin currently housed @ the petstore I work at, and I wanted to bring a little snack for the chinnie. This isn't against the rules, as all livestock caretakers (three, not including me) do this often to supply animals with fresh fruits and veggies. I just wanna know the...

    Petstores

    How can you tell how good a petstore is? Of course, you can look at the animals, but say the animals were fine: they had good food, plenty of water, males were separated from females, males were separated from males, etc. How else would you be able to tell? It's just that many people seem...
