I think my cat has dry skin. She is and indoor/outdoor cat, and it is dry right where she licks her front legs to clean her head. It looks like there is hair loss. She has a bright red mark, no bigger than a centimeter on one of the legs. It seems to have gotten worse. I put a little bit of lotion on it earlier in the week but I do not think that helped. So is it just dry skin or is it a skin condition? If so what should I do.

P.S. I plan on going to the vet very soon if it dosn't clear up, so please don make that your answer.

Thanks (:

Christmas is three months away, and ive been thinking of what to put on my list. in the summer, i asked if my parents would let me adopt two guinea pigs (i had the money and everything, and even for the monthly things.) but they said no. i think at that time they were really stressed about some things, so they didnt want to deal with it, and i agree i was being pretty annoying about it. so should i put the things for guinea pigs separate on my list , as the only thing i want, or put it in between the other gifts i would like to reicive? i think they might cave in and let me , or do you think it would result in them not getting me anything? like i said, ive done all my research, to the point where i can even answer guinea pig questions on here!

(the reason that they said i couldn't have them is because my dad said they smell, not because they think im "irresponsible" im 13, gonna be 14 in January)

my mom drove into the driveway and saw a little gray kitten run between our shed and our house. i went out with cat treats, and a flashlight. i started meowing like a weirdo, and the kitten was meowing back to me ! i couldnt find where it was coming from though :( my mom said she only saw the one, and i only heard one cat meowing. all of our doors and windows were closed so i know it wasnt my cat. its pretty cold out, 55 to be exact, and its only little baby. i want to find it and keep it safe tonight, untill we can get it vetted or bring it to the shelter to do a TNR (trap, neuter, release if the kitten is old enough. im really worried that the kitten is lost and it will get hunted down by a fox :( if you have any ideas, please let me know. thanks.

Hi. so for the past week we've been finding a frog ( a frog not a toad) in our pool. today i found it in the skimmer nearly dead. it is doing good now, i have it in an old fishbowl, with half rocks and half freshwater. i Live in Pennsylvania, and i looked on the identification website, and nothing looks like this poor little guy! :( he seems like the northern green tree frog, but like i said its not on the PA list. this is just like him. (link) http://www.symbolicmessengers.com/Wildlife/WTG/Rep...

so if you could clarify what species he is, i would be very glad. i plan on bringing him either to my friends man made pond, or the one up at the park later today. thank you.

i might just make cuddle cups (small animal beds) to get money. i would sell them on etsy.com , and i know how to sew, also. what about hammocks? would you be interested in my products? and i can also test out my products by donating to the humane society or giving to friends. they would definatly be less than 30.00 (highest price would be like, a cat bed) and the lowest 5.00 for mice and dwarf hamsters. they would be made with fleece, and some super fuzzy faux-fur materials.

so my dad has this thing against rodents. i dont know why. but he does. and are they acctually very, i dunno rodent like? haha so which animal do you think is the least rodent like of the rodent family?

How long would a flake of Timothy hay from the feed store last for 2 guinea pigs?

Okay. so i left my parents out the packet of guinea pig stuff,and when i woke up both of them had already looked through it. so, my mom, i could see that she was DEFIANTLY considering it. and my dad on the other hand strictly held it at no. plain old no. he said they smell, so i said "every animal smells" and he was like yeah but they smell more. and i was gonna scream YOU SMELL MORE THAN ANY ANIMAL I HAVE EVER HAD (but i didn't because that would totally push him over the edge into a super NOOO.

Tommorow, we going into the city, so on the car ride there i plan to talk to him about it. except hes the kind of person that says "no. and thats final" before you can even finish your sentence. if i get him to a point where he knows im right, he might say maybe. and then on Saturday im gonna talk my mom into telling him that they are good and that she knows i can care for them. so any other suggestions? anything is apriciated!

Okay, so for the past 2 weeks, ive been researching guinea pigs and learning all about them. i have put everything ive learned into a folder including a care sheet, pictures, a letter and facts that i know but didnt involve into my letter. i have saved up enough money (and more) to care for them the right way. I told my dad and he said "no. guinea pigs smell more than cats. were not getting another animal" and then went on to tell me that guinea pigs are bad pets.(>:O meanie!!) but i haven't showed him the folder, or said anything to my mom yet. i will tell her later though.

so anyways, is there any other suggestions to let them know that guinea pigs are great pets and they dont smell if you clean their cage regularly? also any links that state that guinea pigs naturally dont smell if they are kept correctly? thanks! any answer is greatly appreciated! :)

My friends dad said that when he had guinea pigs they would randomly have a heart attack. i said that there must have been a factor (hot weather, etc.) i dont believe that they would just have a heart attack out of the blue unless they were sick or something. so is it true?

Ryan Dunn, a former cast member on "Jackass" died in Chester County ,PA for speeding with his friend at around 2:00am Monday Morning. The car hit a tree, and birders into flames.

RIP Ryan.

For two female guinea pigs, should I get one really large pigloo/hidey house or two medium ones. Or just one medium? Thanks! Also , how much per month on average does it cost to take care of two females? Thank you so much for your answer!

(the two piggies are sisters)

Hello :) I might be getting two guinea pigs from the shelter, and I wanted to know if I could keep my ceiling fan on. I know they get drafts from that though, so is there anything I can do besides turning the fan off? (we do have whole house air conditioning, but I like to keep my room pretty cool, about 72 degrees) also is there any tip to help keep the guinea pigs cool in the summer? Thanks !

or by the united States Fish And Wildlife Service?

need for homework. thanks (:

So whenever I leave my mom and dad, I get all teary eyed at first, and then it gets better because my sister is with me. But I'm going to Canada in Janurary for three days and no parents or sister are coming. I do have my one friend going to be there with me. It's just at first when I leave that I'm sad though. Any tips?

P.S. My phone won't work in Canada, and my dad isn't letting me bring his laptop.

I live in PA and can anyone tell me what they think the species is? They must be migratory because I have never heard them before! It creeped me out at first but I like the sound! It sound weird in a good way I guess.

I am in despreate need to pluck them, but whenever I do it hurts SO bad.

Any tips?

so i was browsing upon the computer, when i hear my cat meowing loudly and she is sitting at the window very alert.

a few minutes later, i go and see whats the deal. it turns out there was a black cat sitting on a stump in our yard.

she was only meowing, and did those weird verbal things like burmm or merrrr (if you had a cat, you would understand my cat talk. >-<)

was she mad? did she want to play? was that cat her outside friend? (yes, she is an indoor/outdoor cat, allthough i dont like her to go outisde because of foxes and all.)

thanks!

I DOOOOOOO!!!! AND GUESS WHAT? THEY WON THEIR GAME! :D

Snooki does. And Eminem. And me. Do you?
