Small animal rescue?

Hi, does anyone know of any small animal rescues? We're looking to adopt a hamster. I'm not on Facebook so I'm unable to search for pages/groups there. We really don't want to go to a pet store. Thanks ahead of time!

I made (Pl)art!

I saw plant art, or (Pl)art, floating around on social media and wanted to try, since I'm running out of shelf space for new plants. I got a cheap frame from a thrift shop and bought hanging plant bags from Amazon. I used a staple gun to secure the bags in the frame, then backed it with cardboard. I used decorative moss from the pet store and glue gunned it to the bags. I owed all these plants, ...

Help please!!

I recently rescued a betta from my sister who was not taking proper care of him. He had no filter and no heater :( I cleaned out the tank because it was filthy, got a new heater and filter and I’ve been cycling the water for about an hour. Currently he is in a container similar to the ones at the pet store. My question is, how long should I wait before introducing him to the cleaned tank? I feel...

Would you let your child repeatedly ride in an unroadworthy car?

Back story - My son's best friend's parents are going through a messy divorce and the mother has the house (for now, the bank is threatening to foreclose) but an extremely unroadworthy car. She smashed her back windscreen months ago and has chosen not to replace it because it would cost more than the car is worth. The car has no airbags as it is very old, but we live in an area where fatal acciden...

Struggling to find kitten food

Hi! We’re currently doing an elimination diet for our 3 month old kitten, Silco. He’s a seal point with a bob tail, but we got him off Craigslist and he didn’t come with papers so I am skeptic to claim he has any Siamese in him. Ever since we got him (on Jan 4th) he’s been having diarrhea, never had a fully formed BM. Often there’s blood in his stools, too. We’ve taken him to the vet...

Surrendered frog. Help!

Hi friends! A customer surrendered a pacman frog to me while at work (I work at a pet store) last week. Our records show they purchased the frog in August. They didn’t take great care of it and the conditions it was surrendered in were horrible. I agreed to take it in and try to nurse it back to health. I have a pixie frog that is thriving but I am struggling with the pacman! The temp stays a li...

I got my Betta 2 days ago from the pet store. He has really large eyes. I'm wondering if he is sick or something because a lot of pictures I see of other bettas have smaller eyes. Sorry for poor picture quality

Heating help?

New leo person here. We just brought our gal home on Saturday, and I seem to have run into a heating issue. I set up our enclosure and ran the heat on thermostat for a few days before we brought our new bb home, and I thought everything was all set, but things didn’t seem to be working as well all of the sudden and I’m wondering if anyone has any tips. Here’s my setup: 25 gal tank (I know, I...

Doesn’t like her cage or normal rearranging?

I rescued a Syrian baby from a neighbor about a week ago. I’ve named her Hazelnut and bought a medium niteangel vista. She was in a 250ish sq in pet store cage with bars. She had chewed a hole in the plastic bottom and would climb to the top just to let go. Now Hazelnut is in 8in of bedding (I’m getting more, just underestimated how much it would take). There’s an 11.6 inch wheel, sand bath,...

Two snails dead

Hey guys I’m new here so forgive me if I don’t do everything the right way. My aquarium consists of a goldfish, bristle nose pleco, and was a snail. I used to have a mystery snail and he died (he had a crack and pin hole in his shell and that’s what I thought he died from) but then I got a black nerite snail and he just died as well… I tested myself and had the pet store test my water as w...

What type of Conch Snail is this? Around 1 inch long, found alongside anemones and sponges at a pet store [Iowa]

What are these? I work at a pet store and these popped up while I was on vacation. They're in the tank with peppermint shrimp and there were firefish gobys if that helps

How long are your bearded dragons in inches? I saw one at the pet store that was a baby, like 5 to six inches. How big do they get? I'd like to get one eventually.

Dog treats that aren't wrapped in plastic packaging?

Seems all dog treats are wrapped in thick plastic packaging and I'm tired of buying that junk. Can anyone recommend a dog treat brand that comes in compostable packaging? I honestly would give all my shopping to a company that used compostable or paper packaging. Tired of all this plastic waste! EDIT: I should have clarified that I'm looking for the longer lasting chew treats, not the ones the...

New bunny- what kind is he and does anyone have care tips?

I got a new my first bunny, the place I got it from was so sketchy. The guys were in pjs, no shoes, grabbed the baby very hard, and dropped him. He’s not hurt, but he’s extremely scared and it led things off on a bad foot. I got the bunny 3 days ago and I think he’s from 5-8 weeks old. He has pellets, hay, and a temporary cage that I’m upgrading next week. I changed his hay/ feeding set u...

African Dwarf Frog Advice!
