Keep your exotic bird no higher that at your mid-chest level. This will help you to nurture a good relationship and mimics how birds in the wild—who live by a pecking order—interact. The more dominant flock members perch in upper levels.

Here are some funny cat laws: your cat can't drink beer in Natchez, Mississippi, and in Montana, cats have to wear bells on their collars so birds know they're coming.

Did you know that during a dental exam of your horse, we can check for any loose, cracked or broken teeth, as well as infected gums? Also, it's important to look for teeth with sharp points that make normal chewing difficult.

According to veterinarians, it can be difficult to tell if your pet cat is sick because cats are good at not showing symptoms of illness or injury. However, the U.S. Humane Society says when your cat doesn’t use the litter box, that is often a problem and can be anything from kidney disease and hyperthyroidism to diabetes.

The teeth of rabbits are always growing. Their teeth grow between 1 mm and 5mm each week. As a result overgrown teeth can develop. Do not trim your rabbit’s teeth. This is something your veterinarian should do. Feeding your rabbit foods like hay can help. The chewing action can help wear the teeth down.
