Chemicals, pesticides, etc? Has anyone had any experience with their pets being affected by a “pest controller’s” methods? Does anyone have any advice on this subject?

landrover asked:


On average- about how much do you spend on your pets each month? I just got a puppy in January and I have been spending money on him left and right! between vet bills, food, toys, doggie day care, training, etc. I have probably spent over $1500! More than $150/month. I am hoping this will slow down soon or I will be broke!

I have two cats, both very small and very quiet and I will be living at Pegasus Landing while I’m at UCF. How hard is it to get away with having pets there because I know you can’t have them.

MLE asked:


I belong to an email list which allows people to post things for sale. I see a lot of ads where people are trying to sell or give away their pets. A lot of people are giving them away because they are moving to an apartment where they can’t have pets. This really annoys me, I would never consider moving anywhere that I couldn’t take my pets. To me when I take an animal it is a life long commitment.

What do you think?

chloë asked:


I dont understand. cats arent that bad. Why do landlords not want you to have any pets in their apts? Im looking for places to live and mostly all of the say no pets.

hapfut asked:


I’m just curious. Why do some people treat animals better than they treat human? Why do some pet owners act as if their pets ARE human? I just don’t get it. I just find it strange how some pets are doted on so much. When worst comes to worst you still have to rely on other humans to help you, not animals…
I’ve now read about 10 or so replies and thank you for that. It’s given me great insight. I’ve never owned a dog or a cat (but have smaller animals) not because I don’t like them but because I wasn’t allowed one as a kid and so never grew up around them and never got used to them like most people do.

So now when I go to other people’s (friends) houses and see dog/cat hair everywhere I feel slightly repulsed. And I hate when they lick my face.

I also have another ‘issue’ with rich people who get dogs or cats (or heck even kids!) and don’t even look after them themselves and just pay others to do it – what’s the point?

Jessica asked:


I don’t envisage living in Australia my whole life, but more importantly I don’t envisage ever leaving any of my pets. I expect specifically my dog and bird (cockatiel) to live at least another 10-15 years, so I just thought I’d ask, in general, how it works moving pets overseas.

I know they have to go into some kind of “quarantine”, what does that actually mean? Do they take your dog away from you or something? Or is it more like, he can’t leave the house for a while before you leave or something?

For a long plane journey, how are dogs and birds transported? Are they sedated or anything? Is that dangerous, especially for birds?

Is it dangerous to move a small bird like a cockatiel? Also, what about that bird flu thing, if they had it in a country, would you be allowed to bring the bird back to Australia again?

BRETSGIRL asked:


I’ve had mice, I think they’re coming in somehow behind my washer. I’ve set traps and I’ve caught some, but i was wondering if there is anything that is safe to use around pets that i could put outside to keep them from trying to get in?
