I just went to PetSmart and got some more hay for my chinchillas and I was thoroughly disappointed in the selection.. I have used kaytee hay for a while and haven't had a problem, my chinchillas eat it, it looks nice.. But they had some Great Value stuff or something... It was in a bale. So...

I need a new dust house for my chinchillas. I like to put it in the bottom of their FN cage for about half an hour or so, so it needs to fit inside. What do you guys use? I thought about a fish bowl, but it didn't look like it would stand up.. I could see if falling over and that wouldn't...

Does anyone have an e-reader (kindle, nook, other) ? What do you think of it? I just got a Nook for my birthday from my boyfriend and I LOVE it! He got me the black and white one cause we went to the store and I looked at them and the color ones and decided I liked the black and white better...

I am having a girls brunch at my house Saturday and want some feedback on my menu: small ham shrimp quiche mac and cheese hot spiced fruit bagels and cream cheese or peanut butter mini muffins coffee roll toast bananas, tangerines, grapefruit, grapes, apples coffee tea hot chocolate orange...

I dumped all of my clean clothes out of my laundry basket onto the living room floor so I could fold them all and put them away, but then I went to prepare a snack before I got to it and came back to this... Silly Doggie! Now he's going to think I'm a jerk taking his new bed away when I fold...

How much hay do you feed a pair of chinchillas daily? I give Anubis and Hathor a handful in a box each day, but I'd say most of it ends up on the bottom of the cage..

Tonight I was walking the pitbull around the humane society I volunteer at. He saw some cats and went after them. I was going a really good job at handling him and not letting his leash go or letting him pull me with him and then... his choker collar broke right off of him. What a strong...

So.. I volunteer at a local animal shelter 2 nights a week. Friday night, the Chihuahua terrier mix decided it would be a good idea to bite my hand. Bite, and NOT release it. :( It's ok, I cleaned it out and it's healing nicely, but my next problem is that I'm allergic to band aid...

I went to a clairvoyant party, not really knowing what it was... I got there and realized it was a one on one psychic type thing and decided to give it a try. One of the last things the woman told me was that I was going to adopt a new animal. I looked at her and laughed and said, "I don't...

I ended up running out of mazuri - I was low and went to Petsmart to get some and they didn't have any :( They had the spot for it, but were out. So I ended up getting Oxbow and my girls have been on that for about a week now. Their poops are much bigger! I think I'm going to keep them on...

We got our rescue corgi mix today!!! 2.5 hours to CT and 2.5 hours back! We played a bit, I showed him the house (he's terrified of the basement and won't even come down to see it), then I fed him and we went for a nice long walk. Now he's snoozing next to me on the couch and getting grumpy...

Does anyone have a favorite dog treat recipe? I'd like to try making some for my new doggie (who I get in 2 weeks!!!)

So I've succeeded at convincing my boyfriend that a dog would enhance our lives! YAY! But, he's on board for a small dog (bout 20 lbs MAX--imagine!). I found the most darling corgi mix on a rescue site and have been in contact. Filled out their application and emailed back and forth with the...

what are your thoughts of getting a pet when one homeowner wants one and the other doesn't?

I'm pretty sure I've seen whole loofah in Chinatown in Boston, do you think that would be safe for the chinchillas? I'm assuming it is, because it's sold in the produce section, but I'm not sure if it would need to be washed somehow? Do they use pesticides on loofah?

Alright, I know I've been asking about dogs up and down and all over this forum, but now I've fallen for a... cat. My stance has been that cats are icky, boring, mean creatures. But this cat is like a dog. I've been volunteering at the humane society walking the dog they have there now (a...

I have a rant. My office is set up weird.. there are 60 people in 4 rows of desks/cubicles (open completely at the back to the "hallway" with 2 half walls on either side shared with the next cubicles). One of the rows is against the windows with blinds spanning 6 feet in length. Every blind...

I love dogs and really want to have a dog of my own. But, I'm really confused as to HOW people have dogs.. All of the adoption forms I see and information I read seem to imply that a dog can't be home for 8 hours alone a day. How do people have dogs as pets then? I just don't understand...

Has anyone heard from Diamond Bar Chins recently? I desperately need some new liners and have sent a message on their site and a PM here. I see she was last active August 5th?
