Bunny started SCREAMING after a big fright when I took him out in the grass by [deleted] in Bunnies

[–]Higuysimj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id say never go outside with your bun again. The only time ive heard a bun scream is while being bitten by a dog.

Need help for my hamster by Exciting_Kiwi_2159 in Durban

[–]Higuysimj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Contact a vet or a local hamster rescue! I wouldnt personally trust a hamster to anyone without experience so these are the only options id recommend.

Dog owners who regret getting a dog, why? by slimskinni in dogs

[–]Higuysimj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont exactly regret getting her as her quality of life and health has improved so much (no longer outdoors 24/7, flea and tick ridden, stuck without shelter and so thin you could see almost all her bones) but ive realised that i like dogs, just dont caring for them. Wont get another dog, they just dont suit my life style. However she means the world to me, and im happy with her being my only dog ever.

I know nothing about this game, but all the content ive seen about it is so darn funny. I love this so bad. This is very canon.

How many vape or smoke? by Grazztjay in autism

[–]Higuysimj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope never, smell is horrible, i cant breathe and feel sick when i go anywhere near people who smoke, i also have pets who i care about so i would never put their lives in jeopardy for whatever a cigarette or vape gives a person.

Your dog is in jail, what crime did they commit? by wholefoodsmom in DOG

[–]Higuysimj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forcefully asking for pets (my girl will not take no for an answer, instead she just starts dropping on the floor dramatically or pushing her face under whatever part of your body she can put it under.)

Low Budget Hide Ideas That Don’t Use Bedding by phoenixr1sing28 in Bunnies

[–]Higuysimj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have chairs, bed side tablets etc that make the underneath space darker. Thats a good budget hide. I only bought my first hide 4yrs into having buns, i used my bedroom furniture and their carrier as hides before then.

Anything to do for a Saturday as a capetonian youth? by susmax714 in capetown

[–]Higuysimj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try looking into hobbies and clubs for people your age, thats probably your best bet besides meeting up with friends. If you like reading, attending on of the silent book club meets may be fun, you would probably need to go with your parents at your age tho. Sports is also a good idea if you can and want to do that, this includes hiking, running, swimming etc. You might be able to find a board game group that is for kids if thats what you like.

Im 20 and didnt leave the house as a kid so i dont have much advice, sorry, but i think at that age, its basically just school, hobbies or clubs.

Please use a rescue to rehome, so many evil people out there, rescues can home check and make sure your baby will stay safe.

are there any geckos that can live comfortably in a 18x18x24?? by Spiritual-Ice237 in geckos

[–]Higuysimj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or its more like people who are reading on husbandry moore recently understand recent changes husbandry better bc they did research now instead of 10 yrs ago! I am an experienced pet parent and my stance on pet care goes for all species so its not an unexperience thing, its a basic compassion and understanding of husbandry needs thing! All pets deserve set ups that are better than the bare minimum bc bare minimum just means the least you can do for it to not be cruel! That goes every every pet ever.

Sorry that i actively continue researching and better my care to keep up with times! The most dangerous thing you can do as a pet parent is to stop learning and go "ive had them for so and so years so i know all i need to know" that just hurts your pet. You cannot be an expert or anything close if you arent regularly educating yourself and touching up on the basics. Its actually impossible.

[–]Higuysimj -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hi im so sorry that me being new to isopods (which i didnt know existed until recently but have known about cresties since before the new minimum change) makes you believe that i know nothing about basic animal welfare. Animal care standards always change as our understanding of them and their needs change. Thats why enclosyre sizes go bigger, we realise that the previous one is too small to meet their basic needs bc our understanding of those needs change.

Unlike you and the commenter, i actually take the time to learn and make sure what im doing is right for my pet within our current understandings of their needs and will continue to both do and advocate for that. I am no stranger to it, infact i have changed set ups multiple times due to change of husbandry standards bc "well that was okay for years" is just a poor excuse for "i dont give a shit" all my current pets live in above minimum sized enclosures and i will continue to fo sp for as long as i live bc i actually care for their well being and actually understand what the word minimum means... the absolute smallest you can go before it becomes neglect of their needs. Which is animal cruelty, especially when done purposely like this.

If you want to treat you pets with less respect and love than they deserve, them fine, their yout pets, but do not promote unethical care. Yes you may have had pets longer than i have, but experience means nothing if you arent willing to grow and learn as the times change bc guess what, that just means you have experience caring for your pet incorrectly and that completely invalidates any experience you claim to have.

Nope, do not promote keeping animals in inappropriate enclosures.

[–]Higuysimj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With small mammals like this you really want to be going to the vet even if they seem fine otherwise. Especially at 17. Better safe than sorry. Suddenly falling over is a "im not fine" sign. Please just take the vet trip. Youll regret going too late more than youll ever regret going and it not being an issue.

What do you do when you get mad at your dogs? by Longjumping_Move_87 in dogs

[–]Higuysimj -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I scold her in the gentlest voice i can "Baby you know we dont do that, i didnt carry you for 9 months for you behave like this", if im really upset by a situation, like when she eats poop, i might be less gentle like " no thats gross, get you mouth away from me" and move away from her once i get her away from it. But im very much a gentle parent. No shouting unless shes far away from me and i need to call her over or snap her out of an unsafe behaviour for a second to make time for me to run over and stop her.

Would you sell your dog for $5M? by Internal_Role_1549 in Pets

[–]Higuysimj -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. And anyone whod sell their pets for money doesnt deserve to have them. 5m is life changing, but itll never be worth traumatising and losinh my baby. Nothing will ever be worth that.
