A lump under a rabbit's throat may just be a dewlap, but it can also mean ringworm, infection, or internal heat. Identify the cause before treating.
My cat went bald under the ears and stopped eating after a bath—what’s wrong?
If a cat did not lose fur or stop eating before a bath but after the bath goes bald under the ears and won't eat, possible causes: 1. stress from a scary bath causing anorexia; 2. the ear area has a scent gland and normally sparser fur, and washing off excess oil and loose fur makes it look bolder—usually no heavy treatment, just clean and add nutrition; 3. environment change or stress causing anorexia. Watch closely; if it persists or shows vomiting, diarrhea, or no eating, see a vet.
This morning my cat vomited clear sticky fluid like saliva dripping from its mouth, threw up kibble once, later drank a little water and slept, then at 1pm vomited clear fluid still dripping-what’s wrong?
White mucus or saliva vomit usually comes from bitter substances, long hunger, poisoning, stress, hairballs, or severe pain. If saliva flows after vomiting, it may have licked something irritating (mosquito liquid, medicine, insects, chili); rinse the mouth with warm salt water and watch. Empty-stomach foaming means hunger; fast 4-6 hours then feed bland food and probiotics; see a vet if it recurs.
How long until a dog learns to poop and pee in a fixed spot?
Train from 40 days; most learn in about a week. Free activity starts at 40 days, so early training builds the habit; without guidance they may soil anywhere or think they are the leader.
Common Chinchilla Ear Diseases and Daily Ear Care
Chinchilla ears are delicate and prone to injury (extreme temperatures, fights — look for peeling, blackening, red swollen bites) and infection, especially ear mites (head-shaking, scratching, hair loss, sometimes eye inflammation). Deep wounds may need vet stitches and antibiotics. For care, a mineral-oil cotton ball wipes the ears; seek a vet for heavy buildup. Provide dust sand and check ears regularly.
How to Care for a Chinchilla’s Ears
Chinchilla ears need periodic care because debris builds up and can cause infection. Deep-clean with boric-acid-dampened cotton swabs (2–4 per ear), then ear-cleaning oil (2–3 drops, massaged in, head held 30 seconds). For light dirt, an oil-dipped cotton ball suffices. Never probe the ear canal, and only clean when wax is heavy — a little wax protects the canal. Provide dust bath sand regularly.
