How are you coping with the 2017 Smokopalypse?

NW Oregon here, I'm dying. The sky is a dingy shade of brown/grey and my throat hurts. Even with all my windows shut it's permeating my apartment. Heard it was all started by one dipshit 15 year old who threw a firecracker into a canyon over the weekend. Now it's spread to 30,000 acres and the smoke is sweeping across the nation, or will be soon.

I hope that guy gets the death penalty for all the death he has inflicted. Hundreds of thousands of animals have died in this fire by now, all because of him. And the survivors will have long-term respiratory problems too.

Should I trap it and sell it to someone else? I feel bad for it, considering they were such social birds and now it has no-one. Also, how the hell has it managed to survive when the others died out within a year?

I noticed my budgie 'Lilly' has started sneezing and she whips her tail up and down when she breathes.
Is it something serious?
It is getting very cold here in germany.
Should i give her some lukewarm tea?
What type?

Take her to the vet to make sure it isn't going to kill her and then get a heat lamp. Birds, if sick, lose the ability to regulate their body temp. I have one that I clamp to their cage and all three of my birds take their spot under it each night because they love the extra heat

what do you think of giving her tea tho?
>>
>>2474006
It's a retarded idea that you came up with because you insist on anthropomorphizing your bird. Take it to the vet, you fucking idiot.

Is there a fox I can get that won't run away into the nearby forest?

I fucking love foxes

>tfw there is a domesticated animal being abused/killed right now and you can't do anything to stop it

How do you deal with this feel guys?
41 posts and 5 images submitted.

>>2473921
by realizing that the animal most likely isn't capable of feeling pain or suffering in the first place,
and certainly isn't capable of pain or suffering after it's dead. And indeed we will all eventually die and each of our individual pain and suffering will be erased forever.

how do you deal with it?

i know of a 9 year old Chihuahua that is being abused by neglegence right now. her owner ironically works as kindergarden teacher.

the dog has to eat from the floor, is never loved or being petted, hasnt been to the vet in 3 years, is being beaten for shitting inside,but the owner never takes her outside. She has it bad right now.

me and the gf looked after her for a couple of days because we want to adopt her. a friend of the owner who is very good with dogs took her in for 4 weeks while the owner went on holiday. she took her to the vet, had an ear fungus, trimmed her nails, gave her a bath and trained her on the leash. she really didnt want to give the doggo back, i said we could say, since the dog was never registerred or has any papers, that i ran her over with my car. the owner couldt care less about the dog. but the friend like thw gutmensch she is wanted to talk the owner into giving up the dog. the owner refused out of spite. and not for love of the animal.

a ftiend of mine who has been following up on that story works with therapeutic dog therapy and he is very close to the vet the dog was taken to for a checkup now have informed the police of the abuse and neglegence. if all goes well my friend takes custody of the dog and we can adopt her.

There is a family of ducks in the pond in my backyard. Should I go round them up in preparation for the hurricane or will they be fine?

I remember a Muscovy duck swimming in the pond during Wilma and he disappeared after the storm.

How hard is the storm going to hit you? Is there any shelter near by safe for them they could duck into?

If they are smaller ducklings then they are pretty much fucked. They always end up getting blown away or washed down storm drains. I'd say round them up if you can just until the blunt of it passes but don't bother if you can't get the mom.

>>2473586
Try helping them if you can.

My fiancee and I got a new kitty. I'm wondering because we've had the other cat for nearly a year. How do you suggest or is there no real way of introducing a new animal to the family?

I've looked up google articles and such and think I get it, but the cat is way bigger than the kitten, so I can't tell sometimes if they are playing or fighting.

I've heard keeping them separated, which I have, but I can't keep them separated forever, like when we go out to work or to eat or whatever.

Also am I supposed to have two litter boxes for each one? I've read conflicting reports on that.

Any insight? How long until they get used to each other and don't either attack each other or what not. It seems at first like they are playing, but then I've seen the older cat start biting the kitten. So I seperate them at that point.

One is male (but neutered) the other female, so I know maybe the male is trying to do something, but it's not possible anymore. The female (the kitten) we just got so she isn't spayed.

Recommended number of litterboxes is (number of cats) + 1.

What are the odds the US will get back a breeding population of jaguars?
El Jefe is still around. Macho B getting killed was a huge shitfest of lies and hiding evidence. There was two other jaguars spotted, one a male and they don't know about the one they saw in feb this year. I think it's pretty cool we have jaguars and mountain lions.

How much does security around the mexican border impact jaguars from coming into the US? When did jaguars start fucking/off declining? I've read they have been recorded in Cali, PA, Texas, etc in the 1800s, rapidly declined and the last known female was shot in 1963. Where they still rare pre-colonization?

Anyway. Big cat thread. Post big cats. Other wild cats are also welcomed.

Are there many jaguars in Northern Mexico? I would think they were as uncommon there as they are in the United States.
