do you think birds ever get bored in their cage with the same old toys and other birds?
Birds aren't intelligent enough to get bored.

My Kitten seems to like wet food better than dry food. My question is how can you get a cat to eat dry food. Because right now with our budget, we cant afford wet food. x.x Any advice?
Don't give it cow milk. Cats are lactose intolerant; they get sick if you give them cow milk.
I would just not give it anything but dry food and hope it gets hungry enough to eat it.

My cat is a few years old now and in the past few weeks shes started to develop scabs on her ears and her nose area...and it seems like shes only doing so because she is scratching. My cat has always been a little obsessive about cleaning herself, I have other cats that aren't nearly as persistent as she is so maybe that has something to do with it?
My mom doesn't have the money to take her to the vet right now(which is the reason why we've been putting it off) and it doesn't seem like anything serious so we aren't TOO worried...I'm just a bit concerned so I've decided that until we have the money for a vet visit I'll do some home doctor work. I was going to cut her nails but she isn't the sort of cat who will let you just do that haha so I'm not sure what else I could do. She doesn't even seem that bothered by it...
I don't think its fleas because if it were there would be other areas in bad condition, and no symptoms really point to ear mites or mange or anything like that...so what could it be? What can I do to help(in the mean time)? Any over the counter cat meds that might help? A way to calm her down so I can cut her nails?! XD
Thanks in advance.

can you keep a monkey as a pet? like where would you buy one, and would you need a liscence or anything? thanks
No, you can't. You aren't allowed to have exotic pets like that in the US.

A few days ago a sparrow egg fell out of the nest and it's too high up to put it back in so I decided to try to hatch it. When I got it, it was still warm so I figured it might still be alive. I have it wrapped in a tissue and a little bucket on my satelite reciever (I never turn it off so it gets kind of hot). I haven't been able to find anything on incubating the egg except that it lasts for about two weeks. Does anyone have any more info on this?! Thanks in advance!!
A wild bird's egg taken away from it's nest almost never survives; don't get your hopes up. You can continue warming it, but turn it every 2-4 hours or it'll die from the heat. If the bird hatches, you'll need to quickly go out and buy special food for it. It's going to be a big hassle and cost a lot of money. Read this:

In the future, don't pick up a fallen egg or bird. The bird's parent isn't stupid, and it'll pick the egg up by itself. By taking it, that bird is going to be looking for the egg for hours and hours. And since it's been around you for so long, it won't be able to recognize the egg's scent to find it, even if you return it.

OK, my cat, of about 8 years old, had quite a bit of diarrhea on my rug and well, what looks like throw up, on my sister's rug. The "throw up" looks like V8 Juice, only very, very thin-and more orange. I gave my cat some milk this morning-but it was only a little splash. I've given him milk before & he didn't have any after affects. He seemed to be in general good health, with a few minor glitches [such as laziness-when he never has been before], but after this happened, I started to question his health. I'm asking, BEFORE I GO TO THE VET, what you guys think it is? Is it something I should be worried about?
Please keep in mind, that this is my baby!
Cat's are lactose intolerant. They can't digest milk, it makes them sick. It sounds like it's more serious than that, though, so I'd take it to the vet.
