I want to live in Africa?
Hello,
My name is Michelle and I know nothing about what I'm about to ask, just that I want to do it so please do not be ignorant. I live in the United States and am 17, 18 in April. I get (for personal reasons) 30,000 dollars when I turn 18. Ever since I was little I have loved Africa and wanted to go there on a missions trip. I have also recently realized I want to spend my life working with big cats. I now have come to conclusion I want to spend my summer before college or even maybe and entire year if I really like it living in Africa. I want to go for the culture and meet people and also experience the safari and embrace it. So as of now I am planning 3 months. I would LOVE to just live like the African culture there and make great friends. But I do not know how to go about any of this? What do I do for shelter? Rent a hotel for 3 months? And what do I do about meeting and experience the true African culture? I want to make great friends that can show me the african safari and amazing culture. Please any information would be greatly appreciated.

3 AnswersOther - Africa & Middle East9 years agoChinese water dragon help?!?
Hi,
So a coworker needed to get rid of their Chinese water dragon immidiatly. I offered to take it as she said he has all the right supplies and what not. Got him home and I'm not to sure it's right after research. He is in a 20 gallon long tank with only a fish tank type hood with a heat bulb in it. He has a pool and things to climb on. And also she just used regular wood chip pet bedding for him. He is VERY sweet and docile. They said he sleeps a lot. And sounds like they fed him right with calcium powder and everything. He is about a year old they said and he is only 11 inches currently which concerns me. So please I am asking for some tips on his care. And two main important questions is, is it normal for him to only be 11 inches at a year old. Secondly how long can I keep him in this 20 gallon till I need to upgrade without affecting his health.
*** please keep in mind I am on a very tight budget currently.
I took him in thinking he has all he needs but now I realize he needs more but I've grown attached to him. So only tell me things he absutly NEEDS. I am jobless right now but in a few weeks/month I will get him the other things he doesn't have to have.
Please give me some help.
And I don't need to hear criticism. This is me now not the old owner
Thank you in advanced
1 AnswerReptiles10 years agoAttacked me ex mom police won't press charges? Please help!?
Okay this is a long story but I'll make it short. I have an ex boyfriend who has been bugging me and telling me he's changed and so on(he's hit me before and gotten physical) his parents before told me if I have any problems to go to them. He called me cussing me out yesterday evening not leaving me alone. I wanted to be done with it and for him to leave me alone. I asked to speak to his parents or for there numbers. He told me to go **** my self. So I drove to his house to speak to his parents. His mom started screaming at me while holding my ex back as he tries to punch me. She tells me to leave so I start walking to my car. She starts running after me and holds me down while my exes boyfriend is punching my back and pushing me. My ex started walking towards the car where my sister was so I started getting scared and pulled away to call the police. I ran to my car called the police while they wouldn't move from in front of my car so I couldn't pull away. Try finally moved and I drove away. The police talke to then and they said I refused to leave the property and a neighbor said that they were outside and saw that I refused to leave. Which is not true at all. The mom is insane when I was pulling away she started hitting her 2 kids then collapsed in the nieghbors yard sobbing and screaming. The officer today told me he is not pressing any charges and if he was I'd get charged with trespassing. What can I do? It is not right that I was physically attacked and held down and nothing happens. And I was not trespassing. They told me to come to them if I had problems with their son so I did. And when they told me to leave I tried and they wouldn't not let me go while beating me. I live in PA. Please can someone advise me what I can do so this woman pays for her actions?
2 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police1 decade agoI can't get over my ex, even though he treated me terrible?
Okay I really need help. I can NOT get over him. I feel like I'm going crazy without him.
We started dating in august. Things were amazing. I couldn't dream of a better man to be with. He was sensitive and sweet and made me so happy. We were perfect together no if ands or buts. Around December things just went down hill. On christmas day we were laying in bed and I asked if he wanted to watch a movie. he said yeah so i jokingly said well you can put it in. He flipped out on me that im lazy and does he have to do everything for me. First of all I work go to school and take care of the house and pets. I am anything but lazy. Ever since he went down hill. He had a tantrum and was very irritable. Anything would set him off and then he would flip out and hit himself, objects, or me. One time he started punching himself in the head and later had to go to the hospital because he gave himself a concussion. He was very controlling told me when I could and couldnt talk. He pushed any friend I had away and wouldnt let me talk to them. And was just condescending towards me. He lied about smoking pot all the time and sooo much more. I even found out he would go out trying to pick up other girls. He seemed to have a porn addiction and I got upset about it and that he lied to me about watching it and he hit me on my hip. I could barely walk on that leg for 2 days and had a bruise for 2 weeks. He one day ended it saying I was too clingy. Then I begged for him back and he started calling me whore, slut, worthless. saying I was the most annoying girl ever that he never even wants to date again. That he wants to kill himself to get away from me. I ODed that week and was hospitalized and he later said he wishes I succeeded when I did. Not to mention he broke up with me the night I ODed and didnt even ask if I was alive. Then the next thing I know he comes over telling me hes sorry and how much he loves me and that he just needs time and space to figure himself out. I said I think nows a time when we need eachother. He still wanted tim and space AKA go to parties I find out with drunk whores. Yeah going to parties is really figuring yourself out right. Then he comes over thursday night telling me he loves me and were meant to be together and so on. has sex with me leaves and now hes blocked me again on facebook. he changed his number like a week ago too. I am sooo tired of being treated this way and walked all over like this. but I am so weak that i let him. I love him soo much i would do anything for him back. I can't get over him and we've been broken up for almost 3 weeks now. It just gets worse every day and I dont know what to do.Tuesday before the booty call we went on a date to lunch and a park. It was amazing I finally felt happy and at peace. I finally wasnt miserable. And then he pulled all that thursday. I can't sleep or eat. I havent even smiled or laughed since we broke up except tuesday when we were together. Im keeping busy to like everyone says. Hanging with friends, cleaning, working on school, etc. And NOTHING helps. All I do is cry and want to sleep in my bed because then I have amazing dreams with him. I miss his smells kissing him hugging him and everything about him. I just want him back and I dont know what to do. Im lost without him.
Someone please help me out. please.
7 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoMy boyfriend is flirting?
Monday my boyfriend was acting depressed and miserable all day. After he left I called and told him I feel like I dont make him happy and maybe there is some other girl out there that can make me happy. And when he got done evening school I begged him to just please come over because I was really upset. he said he was going to just go home and work things out with himself. I later the next day saw a picture of him at a hockey game he was suppose to go to monday so i asked him and looked me in the eyes and lied and said no that was from awhile ago. I then looked at his facebook messages. He went out of his way to search a girl he met at a hockey game and friend her. The he messaged her telling her how cute she was and gave her his number. He says hes changing now and that hes getting his life back on track. Hes changed into this person I dont even know. The guy I first started dating I would have never in a million year thought he would do something like this. What should I think or do of this situation. I love him so so much and plan on spending the rest of my life with him. But I just keep thinking about when I read it when my heart just sank and I felt sick to my stomach. it hurts so much. my eyes hurt i havent stopped crying and i feel sick to my stomach and just horrible. I now really dont feel good enough for him and so ugly and like he can find such a prettier girl then me. And I guess he did. He says he loves me and hes so sorry. And I love him to more then anything. But this hurts so much
4 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoCan anyone really say they do not have one regret in life?
People always say "live with no regrets" but can anyone even them honestly say they have not one single regret in life? I really can't believe there is any person out there that has not even one regret. Everyone regrets something whether its big or small. Like can anyone tell me honestly that they don't one thing from their past? Think really hard and please be honest!

3 AnswersLanguages1 decade agoRabbit pregnancy bleeding?
Hello,
My rabbit gave birth 2 nights ago(did not even know she was pregnant). First off everything went well except the nest is in her litter box. there are six babies in there but its starting to smell bad because usually I change it everyday. Can I move the top of the nest to a clean nestbox or litter box? I already put a second litter box in there for her to use. Also second she randomly had spotting of blood last night and tonight. Not a lot just spotting. Is this normal or does she need to go to the vets?
Thanks so much in advance

3 AnswersOther - Pets1 decade agoRabbit skin problem, please help?
Hi,
I got my rabbit Isabelle in December. I have not had any health problems. She is a healthy rabbit and is on a really good diet and is free roam in my room. Never housed outside. I gave her a bath about 3 days ago because she spilled a drink on her. After that her bottom wasnt dry the next morning. But by that afternoon it was dry. Just today I noticed her bottoms fur is falling out a little. Not a dramatic amount. Just small poofs of fur here and there. I then felt her skin and it is very crusty and scabby. It is very very crusty. I was wondering what could this be and how can I solve it. I do have a vet appointment for her on monday. But I just wanted to make sure there isn't any way else to cure it or help.
Thanks so much

2 AnswersOther - Pets1 decade agoGetting another rabbit?
Hello,
I have a mini lop rabbit Isabelle. She is basically free roam except night. I got her from a rescue a few months ago. She use to be cage agressive. So when someone would come to her cage she would growl and bite. But we have worked on that and she has gotten much better. There is a bunny up for adoption currently he is a male. I was wondering if she would eventually get along with him? Mine is a female and the new one Tink is a male. Woudl they get along and how do i introduce them?
Thanks so much

4 AnswersOther - Pets1 decade agovery aggressive rabbit?
Hello,
I just recently adopted a mini lop rabbit named Isabella from our local animal shelter. She is very sweet sometimes. But other times she is very nasty. She has lunged, clawed, and bit almost everyone in my family. She usually does it when she gets in a corner like under my desk, closet, or under my tv stand. I have claw marks all over me from her. She attacked my brothers feet earlier as well. I would love to keep her with us. she is adorable and already house trained. and sometimes she is really sweet and loves being held. But others I'm seriously afraid of her. Shes bitten and hasn't let go for awhile a few times already. So any advice would be really appreciated.
Thank you

4 AnswersMathematics1 decade agoDiomand dove questions?
Hello,
My local shelter has a diomand dove up for adoption. I am thinking about getting him but have some questions for I have never owned a dove before. I currently own a parakeet Kurtis who is my life. he is barely caged and is spoiled rotten. and i help take care of my brothers parakeet sometimes to. so i have some experience with birds. Now my first question is about cages. I plan on like kurtis letting him out a lot like practically all day because i am home all day except evenings when i work. and usually my brother will come and let kurtis out so the new guy would be out just about all day. now i have heard you can use guinea pig cages because they like more walking room. if this is true i have a huge very big rabbit cage that is solid bottom. so would i be able to use that for the bird? if so that would help save a lot of money for more toys and other supplies. and that would be just great. now also i would appreciate someone just giving me the basic care guides or point me in the direction of a good website to check out. i would really like to get this guy and give him a great home to be spoiled in like kurtis. and would a parakeet and dove get along. not cage wise of course they would be in seperate cages. i mean like could they be in my room(where i have bird play grounds and toys) do you think i would have a problem because if so i can get them in different rooms. but i would love to have them both with me in my room for playtimes. so please help me and thank you in advace.
