How do you transform the tough ones? I have one who is difficult. (But she's cute.) Usually regular handling brings them around nicely. Once they realise...
My first Cambles, Miss Pee Wee was a tiny little biter. She learned many tricks and won the hearts of all that ever met her...but she bit. She never came to my...
Zoey LOVES to come out. She would push Patti out of the way to get onto my gloved hand. If I open the door, she zooms out; she is SO fast. I learned ...
Hi Ellen I'm sorry I've taken so long to answer. I was offline for several days. We were totally confuddled as what to do. I wanted to just drop him at the...
First, I think little Zoey is a female, but I could be wrong. It looks like her/his intestines are hanging out!! It could be another organ, I'm not sure, but...
What you describe sounds like a vet emergency, Ellen. It sounds like a prolapse (http://www.petwebsite.com/rectal.htm), and if so, there's really no time to...
Jane, you were right. Here's what happened: I had not handled Zoey much since earlier in the week when Patti died, so last night I decided to take her out and...
I am so sorry Ellen, losing two so close together is terrible. I feel awful that you are blaming yourself. Rest assured, you did not do anything wrong....

Hard to believe, I think I got a better "deal" at the Animal Medical Center. They charged me $125 for the emergency visit, and I think another $30 for ...
... Bless your heart, Ellen. I didn't want to be. I've only seen it once, in a mouse in a pet shop, and it's horrific. I can't imagine seeing it in your own...
Hi Ellen I'm so sorry I have to write another so sorry letter! I cannot imagine. But you most certainly didn't do anything wrong! the Animal Medical Center...
David When you suggested this to me I asked around and most people replied that they also lay (float) their pets to rest there, including cats and dogs. I...
Yes, I went to the website that David once sent me and it seems that they have several, so I'll bring Sherman there if he ever needs it. Of course, we don't...
Ellen, I am so sorry that you have to go thru this twice in a week. You did everything possible for your little creatures. I guess that it was their time to...
Oh, Ellen. I feel so badly for you. I'm sorry to hear about Zoey now, too. Please don't beat yourself up any more though. It wasn't your fault. You didn't...
I've avoided responding to this message, just as I've avoided cleaning my dwarf's cage (I'm afraid of what I will see in there.) I can't shake the image of my...
I read an article this morning in the NY Times about a gruesome discovery in a pet store in Mt. Vernon, NY in Westchester county, many dead and starved little...
Here's the article if anyone is interested and doesnt have a NY Times login. My questions is... what is the right thing to do when you see a pet store that...
I mentioned to the director of the Mt. Vernon Humane Society that two of my hamsters had died, one of them had rectal prolapse. She said that they saw rectal...
Hi Ellen, From what I can gather, prolapse can be caused from a variety of things. It could be either bad diet, or Stomach upset, both of which can cause over...
Dear Ellen: I don't think anyone here remembers you saying you "wouldn't be getting any more hamsters for a while." You must be confusing us with another...
The roads were horrendous today. It took me 2 1/2 hours to drive 18 miles this morning, then I got lost. So I called the animal shelter to ask for directions...
Ellen, I normally just lurk on this group but I had to write and tell you that you're a brave and noble person. I'm Jane's fiancée so I know how hard it can...
