Baby cockatiels need formula or soft millet porridge at 38–40°C before weaning, then seed and pellets with weekly fruit, vegetables, and cuttlebone. Keep the brooder at 20–26°C, clean the cage often, and discard old food and water daily to prevent diarrhea.
Hamster keeps making puffing sounds, mouth-breathes while sleeping, but active; about two or three days
Puffing with good spirits may be dust, inhaled debris, or smells. Change to low-dust bedding and clear odors; clean the nose. If persistent, consider illness like heat or respiratory disease.
I fed my puppy some congee; first time in a crate it keeps crying and vomiting. What should I do?
Vomiting after congee is often indigestion or reflux, worse if the pup jumps around; withhold food and give probiotics. Crying in the crate is anxiety from being unaccustomed; watch its spirits and see a vet if it stays unwell.

My dormouse’s neck was crushed by a door
A door-crushed neck is a severe accidental injury that cannot be handled at home; take it to a vet at once. The vet will likely X-ray or CT the dormouse to assess bone and skull damage and plan treatment. At home, move it gently into a cage to avoid further injury, ice the neck, and apply Yunnan Baiyao spray to ease inflammation.

Why is my Golden Retriever’s nose red, swollen, and scabbed? There’s redness, bleeding, and a bump on the mouth.

What happens after a male rabbit is neutered?
After neutering, hormone-driven aggression, territory marking (spraying urine), and dominance fights drop sharply, and the temperament is steadier. Less spraying improves cage hygiene and weakens urine odor. It also lowers risk of sex-hormone-related diseases like prostate issues and testicular cancer. Neutering removes fertility, avoiding the stress of frequent heats and breeding.
