Is it a good idea to get rabbits and release them in the backyard so my dog van hunt them down?
>>2480222
No you silly cunt.
Just take them out for a walk, let them chase squirrels and shit.
In most developed countries there'd be some kind of animal cruelty charge for that kind of thing. Though I'm guessing you might not be.
>>2480469
Chasing squirrel is not hunting tho and i want him to hunt
>>2480222
I had the same idea. Get hares (maybe breed some for that specific purpose) and then let them loose outside.
If they escape, they are free. If they dont, they are feed.

Just found this board, and I feel at home. General cat appreciation thread, please. Pic related, found my catto like this. Please ignore the autistic snapchat text
Here's my cat
You're in the wrong place /an/ hates cats
Also here is mine
>>2480002
Dear new anon, just know that /an/ is divided into 4 groups in terms of how we feel about cats. Anyone feel free to chime in on their feels too. Who knows, maybe we have an undiscovered species out there? I'm not counting legged-snek lovers (ferret lovers) unless you really want to.
1. Your general cat lovers: posting pic after pic of their kots, going crazy over their silly cute antics. Post more pics ples.
2. Your outdoor kot haters: how dare you leave your invasive pest outdoors to wreak havoc on the natural populations of birds and rodents and bugs that inhabit our lovely yards? Fuck you for being a lazy cat-fag and not properly exercising/potty-ing your cat indoors where this terrible predator belongs. You will find this group to be the most vocal, although debatably the most predominant on this board.
3. Your general cat haters: fuck cats dogs rule etc etc. Probably the most fun to argue with, since nobody will ever win, but everybody has cute pics. I am actually in this group, I will never have a pissy-paw cat, but I still love them for their cuteness and the funny qualities they possess that dogs might not have.
4. Your faggots in general. Just straight trolls here from the depths of below your mom's basement. They're just on /an/ to waste every minute of your time with nonsensical bullshit or to just be plain retarded. Ignore at all costs.
My puppy ate a piece of this mushroom. I have no idea what kind of mushroom this is, please help. I hope it isn't poisonous.
It grew on my lawn.

why are you talking spiders?
Get hydrogen peroxide
Make it vomit
Most mushrooms are poisonous and could harm liver

Discuss anything aquarium related here, including inhabitants, decor and issues.
Google is your friend.
Feel free to ask questions but know that there are a lot of resources out there that could answer your question a lot faster and accurately than /an/.
Make sure to include these things in your post before asking because we can't help you if we don't have the full picture:
-tank size (include dimensions, not just volume)
-parameters (ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, pH, GH, KH)
-any and all inhabitants + how long you've had them

>>2472778
I absolutely love them personally, but I'm afraid to get goldfish.
They live for so long, and are so similar to dogs in personality. I'm afraid I'll get way too attached and end up breaking my own heart if it gets some disease, because most of the time, vets won't treat fish.

>Getting a mixed breed dog that could require a completely different style of ownership you're capable of giving
the fuck are you talking about.
99% of how much your dog fits your lifestyle depends on SIZE and AGE of the dog. and even in mutts you will usually be told (by the shelter staff for example) what character the dog has, if it likes chasing after animals, is lethargic, very territorial and whatnot.
and even if not. so much of a dog's "personality" is due to training and a good relationship (or lack thereof) to its owner, not about what fucking breed it is.
tl;dr kys
Hey there animal board. It's pretty in the evening where I live and I don't have any transportation to take my cat to the doctor so I'm coming to you for advice because I'm worried. Over the last hour I noticed my cat Stella has been having her eyes swell up, looking at her closely it looks like her secondary eyelids underneath are swelling on one eye I tried pulling her eyelid down to see if something got wedged in her eyeball because I know she was playing around and running a lot but I can't seem to find anything please if any of you know something or what I can do let me know I'm not sure how to handle this. Thank you!!
Closer
it's probably a reaction to injury, possibly even dust
give it a day or two, if it doesn't go away then take her in
pretty cat btw
>>2480457
THANK YOU! Truly I appreciate the response and what you think it could be. She's been very calm and lethargic thr last hour now. I'll keep an eye on her. If anyone else has other ideas please let me know
Is it normal for iguanas to barely eat for stretches of time? Mine is about 9 months old, for his first 6-7 minths he was clearing his food every day. For the past two months he has been barely eating. He has about one day a week where his really eats.
He's definitely warm enough, it has been 90-100 degrees here almost everyday. And he doesnt seem scared hes crawling on me like always.
I just want to make sure my little bro is ok.
Iguana help you, but I don't know anything about reptiles :((
>>2480336
I appreciate the pun at least
>>2480335
What's with this place and asking to diagnose their pets based of vague descriptions? Do you like hope that an Iguana expert will happen to see your thread? Take it to a vet ffs, or at least go somewhere else online where people don't indiscriminately shitpost.
