  1. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    Hi I am new to this site, I am a 14 year old girl that LOVES animals. Well right now I own 1 horse(for sale), 2 cats(1 indoor, 1 outdoor) and 2 parakeets. I am interested in owning a pet rat. I have owned hamsters before and even 1 guinea pig before. I am trying to find one but can't seem to...
  2. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    I've got two mice that keep sneezing. They are in seperate enclosures. One is a female in a 10 gallon fish tank with a screen lid and carefresh bedding. The other is a male in a large critter keeper with carefresh bedding as well. Could this be just an allergy to the bedding or a more serious...
  3. Gerbil & Hamster Discussion
    I just got three roborovskis. They have a bar cage, but can't get through the bars. I'm using carefresh bedding, they have a fully sealed no-little-holes-to-get-their-feet-stuck-in-wheel. They have real tubes and ones to chew on, two food dishes so they don't fight, a water bottle, and plenty of...
  4. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    Hey everyone. My hairless rescue rat has porphyrin and sneezing with swollen watery eyes, but he's not lethargic or wheezing. In case it's allergies I took everything out of his cage. I only put his igloo, lab blocks, water bottle, and some fresh fleece blankets back in. This morning he had no...
  5. General Animal Discussion
    Not sure where to put this since I normally don't talk about them, but this was just too awesome to share. I was in PetCo in Fox Chapel, PA and was looking around because my client had to look at EVERYTHING multiple times and I was getting bored and tired. Anyways. I was really impressed by...
  6. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    Hi to all! I'm new and this is my first post. We have two sweet ratty-rats (both girls), Cookie and Bear. We have had them since they were 5 weeks old and they are now 5 months old. I love these little cuties! I was wondering about using Zeolite for their litter box. I have seen it used in...
  7. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    i'm very sorry to start a new thread moments after i joined, but i am very, very desperate. my youngest mouse saria (she's about... 4 months old i think?) is bleeding on her underside somewhere, which i discovered when she was walking around on a towel and was occasionally leaving a few spots...
  8. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    hi everyone. I've had rats for a while, and I know that there is no way to keep them from smelling at all! but, this is my first time having boys instead of girls and it is definitely a bigger challenge to keep the smell under control. does anyone have any suggestions for air fresheners that...
  9. Gerbil & Hamster Discussion
    Hi everyone, my gerbil Limmie is having some problems with his eyes and I was wondering if anyone has gone through a similar situation or would know what is going on. Limmie is about a year old male gerbil who has red mucus coming out of both his eyes! I assume it's mucus because he doesn't...
  10. Degu Discussion
    I was wondering what sort of toys I should buy for my soon-to-be goos. Since there isn't any Degu toys, I didn't know if I should go with chin, rat, ferret, or some rabbit toys. Also, what do goos like to play with? I mean are they tunnelers like hamsters, or what? Do they like ferret hammocks...
  11. Guinea Pig Discussion
    And their foster mommy told me that wood chips are not good for piggies. Is this right? One thing she suggested was hemp bedding, which I can get at the same place as my aspen shavings. Which do you think is better?
  12. Rabbit Discussion
    What do you all think about carefresh bedding? I have been using wood shavings for a year, and I got tired of Lola kicking them all out, so I changed to carefresh. She seems to like it better, since it is not all over the floor every morning when I wake up to check on her. :)
  13. The Water Cooler
    Just curious....How do you wake up each morning? Do you wake up well on your own with no help, a little help, or no help at all :) Poll....Vote on the one closer to how you wake up. I know there are probably more possibilites. I bet some are funny! Share with us! :P
  14. Guinea Pig Discussion
    Hi everyone, Our vet obtained a sample of our guinea pig (Brownie) about a week ago. The vet said she had a fungal infection from ringworm. She was losing some hair around her right ear but only there. She is very active and has gained weight (she went from 335 grams to 431 grams) in the...
  15. Gerbil & Hamster Discussion
    Hey, everyone. I'll try to keep this short. I adopted Princess in March. The rescuer gave me Carefresh bedding to use. She told me Princess always uses it. Princess was fine and healthy until May. She cut herself on the nose and I had to take her to the vet. The vet told me Carefresh is the best...
  16. Guinea Pig Discussion
    Well, I'm now proudly owned by a new piggy, named Kakuro. He's quite small, has a rosette on the top of his head, and is black and white. I believe he's a boy. He's very adorable and likes being cuddled and loves cucumbers. :heart: :hyper2: So, what are some things I should get him? I...
  17. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    Well, I've had Jack and Apollo now for 4 days and they keep sneezing a lot. The sneezing is not a rapid succession, but every few minutes Jack sneezes once, sometimes twice. Apollo does it much less frequently. I'm getting worried because they don't seem stressed out anymore, though they...
  18. Gerbil & Hamster Discussion
    I might be getting a hamster tomorrow, if all goes well. He's a long-haired syrian, dominant spotted, I guess. he'll be coming with all of his supplies, cage and everything, although I will probably replace them all slowly, I don't want to change everything all at once. I will be feeding him a...
  19. Gerbil & Hamster Discussion
    After joining a few pet forums and reading some hamster blogs, I really want a hamster. I want a male syrian hamster, color is unimportant. I don't want to buy one, I'd rather rescue. The only animal I have ever bought from a pet store or otherwise was my mouse, Esmeralda. I wouldn't be able to...
