Is my family in need for a better home? (long description)?

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Is my family in need for a better home?
My mother, father, brother and I live together in a small house.
there is only 1 very small bathroom
and i only consider it 1 bedroom, then me and my brother live in the attic which is split off into 2 areas.
we have a basement which has a decent amount of space, but we have 2 cats that live down there. Their names are takkun and kitty. I took takkun in when he was a kitten because the owner did not want him anymore.
we also have a small dinning room, kitchen and living room.
The house has flooding issues in the basement
we have some type of bug infestation every year.
we think there are holes in the roof because things like bats have gotten into the house.
house is very badly ventilated, in the summer the heat is unbearable and it will be stuck in the house and wont leave.
The upstairs rooms are so hot that the posters on my walls start to fall off cuz the tape will melt.
I dont know if it sounds bad
but my mother has her own business.
She is a home daycare provider.
she really does good with it
a lot of the parents dont have much money so she gives them breaks
even helps some of these parents get their cars fixed
and driving the kids home if their parents dont have transportation so i think she really dedicates herself to this daycare.
But now we have 4 people already living in here with one bathroom
now there is 7-9 kids here all week. There is not much room for them to play. when summer comes thats when we have the most kids but most will be outside.
we also have a garage
which isnt even really used for storage.
we also have 3 dogs
one is my fathers, one is my sisters and one is my brothers
the brother who left his dog passed away about 4 years ago
which was a big tragedy for the family so we have been taking care of it.
My sister moved to VA and couldnt take the dog with her so now we are stuck taking care of hers too
The dogs are a lot of work but they need a better place than the garage to live in.
During the winter is gets extremely cold so we have to give them old blankets inside of their cages so they dont freeze.
my father has been in and out of work because of the job situations in this area. There are not many jobs so he works out of the state.
we would like to move to a different are but i dont know if we can afford it yet.
My mother wants to move to Virginia and try to get a bigger house.
The main reason for this is because there isnt much in this area and there is not enough room for daycare here
we right next to a noisy and busy highway.
Trucks have broke trough the barriers more than once right near the house.
some parents who come to look for daycare see the highway and find it dangerous for their children to be here
my brother
he has 2 kids who live with their mother not far from here
and they stay with us every weekend.
He is very into electronics and videogames.
So we have a lot of interesting gadgets and electronics around.
I myself am an artist and love japanese culture
i think ive painted every room in this house.
i have the smallest room in the house.
Im always creating something so my room is filled with supplies, like fabric, sewing machine, art utencils and a collection of japanese things that slowly gets larger.
I dont really have much space to make thing or put my stuff.
I am also into japanese fashion
I wear lolita which started in japan in the 80s
I cant fit my long dresses in my closet so i have to put my stuff everywhere.
I have things in the basement, on top of our fridge in my room in every little place i can fit it without being too unorganized
my mom told me she wants to get me much more space if we get a new house, possibly my own room just for art.
money wise we are not too bad off
but the house is way too small for all the people always in here plus 5 pets.
hopefully my mom can get us another house
And i dont think we are bad off enough to enter one of those extreme makeover contests
so im not sure whats gonna happen : /

What do I need to know about taking care of my PET cow?

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

I live out in the country and I love cows. I was thinking about getting a cow to keep in my large back yard and it would be only a pet. I know that there has to be at least an acre per cow, but I am only going to keep it as a pet, so can I just feed it hay instead of letting it graze on grass all day? Also, just like they make minuture horses, do they make miniature cows? If so, what is the breed? Around how much does the average dairy cow cost? How much does a cow eat each day? Remember, I love cows and it will be a pet, not a livestock animal that will graze all day. Please send any information to me by giving me your email address and I will email you with more questions. Thank You!

Do You Really Need Insurance for Your Pet Cat?

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

Since cats are such independent creatures, many people don’t think of getting pet insurance for them. This is especially true if the cat is kept indoors because they are not as likely to get run over by a car.


The truth is that there are many potential health problems that will require a veterinarian’s care. Insurance will help pay for some of the costs related to those health issues.


The costs that can become expensive begin when you first get your kitty and continue until it becomes an oldster.


One problem that can be prevented before it gets to the point of your pet needing surgery is hairballs. By simply giving a food that contains a hairball additive or by feeding an over-the-counter hairball remedy, you can prevent expensive surgery. Pet insurance will certainly help if your cat has gone past the preventative stage.


Kidney failure is another disease that cats are prone to. Senior cats are most likely to have this ailment. Vet bills can be astronomical in these cases.


Urinary tract infections are also common. Symptoms are varied. They will cry when going to the bathroom, or they “miss” the litter box. Treatment usually depends upon the type of urinary tract infection that they have. A veterinarian will have to do tests and kitty will need to be put on antibiotics.


Your cat could also develop upper respiratory problems, especially if they were gotten from the humane society. Symptoms are, coughing, sneezing, runny nose and eye weeping. If you have more than one cat, isolate the sick cat from other cats. Again, kitty will need veterinary care and most likely antibiotics.


Many cats are also prone to developing diabetes. This is when pet health insurance really comes in handy. Diabetes is an extremely expensive cat disease.


Then, there are cat allergies. No, not your allergy to your cat but your cat’s allergy to things it breathes or comes into contact with. He or she can become allergic to the dust of their litter box litter, air fresheners, dust, household cleaners or other airborne particles.


A cat with allergies can’t be treated with over-the-counter medicines. They must be treated by a vet who can test kitty to get to the cause of the allergy.


Other medical problems that cats can get are parasites, liver disease, infections, cancers, poisonings and pancreatitis. Blood tests will have to be done to find out what problems your cat may have that are causing its symptoms. Take your cat to the veterinarian immediately if it suffers from abdominal pain, elevated heart rate or high fever.


Any cat that is sick should be encouraged to drink water. Water will help wash out any toxins that your cat may have gotten into. It will also lower a high fever. Sometimes, just giving a cat water will help flush its kidneys and reduce the amount of treatment it must receive from a vet.


As you can see, cats can develop many of the same diseases that humans can. And they can be nearly as expensive to cure. Pet insurance can help alleviate some of the expenses associated with all of this veterinarian care.
