Saturday, September 12th, 2009
A new twist on the old pet care books! These delightful books will help beginning readers reach informed decisions as to whether an animal would make an acceptable pet. Not all the animals covered in the series are suitable for every family. Each title provides simplified technical info about the species, including how the animal lives in the wild, how big it will get, and how long it lives. It also provides details on care of the pet, such as space requirements, how and what to feed it, health care, and handling. Once readers understand whether the animal would make a good pet, they are prepared to try to convince their parents they can . . . care for the pet. Who can resist a soft, cuddly rabbit? If your parents can but you can t, you ll need to learn as much as possible about this pet to convince them you can take care of one. The key to raising healthy and happy rabbits is knowing what they need. You might be surprised to learn that they need a lot. They need a quiet place to live indoors where they feel safe. (Yes, rabbits can be litter trained!) It s amazing how much they eat, and they should be fed twice a day. Most important, they need your love. A happy rabbit has a human that spends time with it every day. If you ve got plenty of time and the love, a rabbit might just be the right pet for you. Can you convince your parents to agree?
Shells in Freshwater?
Friday, September 11th, 2009Shells are often used to decorate saltwater aquariums, but are the safe for use in freshwater aquariums? This forum member wants your opinion.
Hi everyone, a friend has given me a lovely old large white shell which would look terrific in one of my tanks, however, I am wondering if the shell would cause any change in the water quality, I would like your opinions before adding it to the tank.

Living With Pigs
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009
Winston Churchill once said: “I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down. Pigs treat us as equals”. This may be one reason for many people’s fascination with pigs, but a more likely reason might be the long history of nearness to them. Less than a century ago, there were family farms where people raised, among other things, livestock for market and for the family’s consumption. Nearly all of these family farms raised a litter or two of pigs. When pigs live near, they are always in the imagination. Natural escape artists, smart and quick-witted, full of personality, pigs invite comparisons to humans. Life with pigs is unlike life with other farm animals. Their size and intelligence make them challenging to raise, while their lack of concern for their surroundings (other than shade or perhaps some nice mud to wallow in) makes them easier to care for than other farm animals. Bob Artley once again applies his finely honed memories of life on the farm to these porcine creatures, with a work that is at once informative, nostalgic, and beautiful.
