How to Litter Train Your Pet Rabbit

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

If you own a rabbit and aren’t quite sure what to do with him or her why not train him. I will show you step by step how to litter train your pet rabbit. Within a few weeks, your rabbit will be trained to use a litter box both in and out of his cage. Don’t worry, its not that hard to do, I did it with my six year old daughter.

Here are three things you should do before you start to actually train your rabbit.

1) Make sure you have a proper cage for your rabbit:
His cage should be big enough for him to have a “living” area and a “potty” area.

2)Let your rabbit exercise everyday.
You should have your rabbit out to exercise 1-2 times a day for 30-60 minutes.

3) Feed your rabbit
You should feed your rabbit a combination of fruits, vegetables and dry food three times a day.You will find that your rabbit has one or two favorite treats which you will use when you begin to train him.
Ok now that you have spent a some time getting to know your rabbit and have become friends its time to start training.

Litter Training Your Rabbit
This should be the first thing you teach your rabbit to do. It is a fairly easy task to do plus it will eliminate having to clean up after him while you are training himother commands. You will need a litterpan about 4 inches high and either hay or nonclumping rabbit litter to put in the litter box. DO NOT use regular cat litter. The dust can cause respiratory problems for your rabbit. Place the litter box in the room where you have been letting him exercise. Remove some “rabbit pebbles” from the bottom of your rabbits cage and place them in the litter box. Put your rabbit in the litter box and use a command like “rabbits name, go pebbles” or “rabbits name, go potty “. Don’t worry if your rabbit hops out of the box, let him hop around for 10 minutes then place him back in the box and repeat the command. When you see your rabbit go potty in the box, praise him by scratching his nose or stroking his head and say “good rabbits name” or good boy/girl”. DO NOT give your rabbit a treat for going potty. Do this everyday for a week. By the end of the week your rabbit should hop in the pan and go potty whenever you have him out of his cage.

The Festive Fur-ball Factor: are You Really Ready to Adopt a Pet This Holiday Season?

Tuesday, November 29th, 2011

By Marie Mead

The holidays are upon us once again. And as the festive lights, glowing menorahs, and savory aromas soothe our spirits and bring out our annual idealism, we find ourselves pondering one of the burning questions of the season: Should Santa bring Junior a shiny new bike…or that puppy he’s been asking for? Too many people use the holidays as an opportunity to impulse-adopt pets. And it’s rarely a good idea.

A new pet may seem like an exciting addition to holiday merrymaking. After all, during the season of giving, who wouldn’t want to share the love with a new kitten, puppy, or bunny? But what seems like a sweet idea on the surface is not always in the best interest of the animal. Pets aren’t toys, they shouldn’t be considered disposable, and frankly, they just aren’t for everyone. 

There are several critical facts many people tend to overlook in their eagerness to get that perfect Christmas, Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa snapshot of the kids frolicking with their new furry friend:

• You can’t just take a pet back to the “return” counter because it doesn’t fit your family. Adopting a dog, a cat, or any other creature is (or should be) a lifelong commitment. Not only are our animal companions dependent on us to ensure their safety and wellbeing, they are also thinking and feeling beings with some basic emotional and mental needs similar to ours. It’s irresponsible—and let’s face it, cruel—to bring an animal home, play with it for a few days, and then abandon him or her to an animal shelter or (almost as bad) a lonely pen in the backyard. Yet people do this all the time!

Think carefully about whether you are really ready to provide a safe, secure, loving home for an animal. If you aren’t certain the answer is yes, hold off for a while. Consider what abandonment of an animal teaches children. Research the species and breed ahead of time to ensure a good family match.

• Cute as they may look together, kids and pets don’t always mix. Another drawback to the “kitten in the Christmas stocking” idea is that some kids just aren’t ready for pets. Younger children, especially those who’ve never been exposed to animals, are usually too rough and exuberant to care properly for a pet. Inadvertently hurting or scaring the new animal may result in bites or scratches. Add in the fact that kids tend to become overexcited, overactive, and overtired by holiday activities and you can see why it’s best to think twice.

Don’t get me wrong: Bringing the right pet into a home is a wonderful learning experience for children. It can teach responsibility and nurture compassion. But approach the decision with plenty of research and careful consideration. Make it clear that the animal is not a plaything. Instead, model behaviors that show that the animal is a valued member of the family, one to be treated with love and respect.

• The hectic nature of the holidays can be counterproductive to adjustment. Integrating a new pet into your household requires a certain amount of scheduling and a calm environment. The holidays tend to be a hectic time with highly disrupted routines. Animals brought into such situations can become stressed, sometimes even to the point of illness or aggression. They need relatively quiet and gentle surroundings in order to settle into an unfamiliar home and bond with new people.

If you can’t maintain a calm, predictable schedule, wait until after things settle down in the new year before you adopt a pet. Your family will have plenty of time to get to know the new animal and enjoy spending time with him or her. But if you do decide to adopt during the holidays, make sure to take safety precautions so that holiday decorations and lights are not chewed or ingested.

If and when you do bring home a new companion animal, provide lots of calm attention to help him feel relaxed, safe, and loved. Take time to observe the new family member, finding out what triggers fright or delight. As you take this quiet time, you may find yourself relaxing in his or her presence—animals know how to be, something most humans struggle to learn.

Remember that while your intentions are good, you have to think first about what is best for any animals you may potentially adopt. A pet during the holidays can be a wonderful and mutually beneficial gift for the whole family. Just be smart about it and make thoughtful preparations first. Or pick a calmer time of the year to bring a pet into your lives. Your new furry companion will thank you, and your family will find it more enjoyable as well!

Pet Rabbit Care; 4 Basic Tips to Get You Started

Sunday, November 27th, 2011

Pet Rabbits care and concern should be paramount, especially if you are getting someone in your family a Rabbit for a Birthday or Holiday present.  While the Disney movies always make the fluffy little rascals so cute, there are some basic that you have to be aware of before bringing them home to be loved and cared for.

First, you have to realize that rabbits are creatures that like to roam in groups, by and large.  Additionally, the usually stay within a region as a creature and are not know to wander far from that area they are familiar with.  Because the nature of rabbits are of a fairly docile creature, they are usually easy game for prey.

With house rabbits, you have got to know a bit of the history so you can accommodate them as a pet.  With that in mind, let’s look at 5 basics to keep them happy in your home.

First, their home.  Rabbits don’t like to be caged all day, but they must feel safe.  Many like the idea of a larger cage that the rabbit can go in and out of and allow the rabbits to roam.  Be sure to make sure you rabbit-proof the home and give them something to use for waste.  Believe ti or not, rabbits will use litter boxes, just make sure  they don’t share it with a cat…that is trouble with a capital “T”.

Second, use anything but Cedar, as it can harm rabbits, for their bedding.  They love a soft blanket that they can nest in.  I have seen may take old towels and cut into several nice size shapes and let the rabbit arrange as he chooses.

Third, rabbits are vegetable lovers, so resist the need to give them stuff you think they might like.  This means that your favorite house plant will look good to them, so just be aware.  Know that Rabbits have small digestive tracts and you have to be careful to give them too much as they will eat most anything if you let them.  The idea that the furry little friends only will eat lettuce is not so much true as lettuce does nt haove a lot of nutritional value.  Let the eat other veggies as well such as; carrot tops, spinach, broccoli, and other green vegetables.  Vary it up and your pet Rabbit will love you.  And don’t forget the fresh water; and a clean, cool environment.

Fourth, the handling of your pet Rabbit.  Remember that Rabbits are very sensitive creatures, especially with their ears and eyes as those are their predator defense mechanisms.  Their ears are an indicator as to what they are sensing as the ears will stand up when they sense something.  Respect their senses and never pick them up by their ears.  Always place a hand under their chest between the front feet and the other hand under their butt.  This will give them a comforting feeling and allow them to feel safe with you.  Also, never touch their nose.

A Rabbit is a pet that could live anywhere from 7 to 10 years on the average with proper care, with some rabbits living into the teens.  Take care of them and, like any other pet in your home, they will probably become a treasured member of the family adored by all.

An Exotic Pet Rabbit

Saturday, November 26th, 2011

Every character has his own scale as to the kind of pet he will pass home and take caution of. Generally, people pick dogs or cats as pets since these animals are jolly and easier to take thought of nursing. However, there are people who prefer to take heeding of exotic pets.

Ordinary pets are animals the people ponder as pets because they are warmly domesticated and gentle. On the other hand, exotic pets are animals that aren’t commonly found near circle, aren’t domesticated and most of them belong with the fierce.

A someone who forecast to get an exotic pet should consider his commitment in caring for such pet. If the motivation is only to have the exotic pet shown off then it is better to think again. Owning an exotic pet is a driving responsibility because they force singular bother.

Parents who are planning to give an exotic pet to their children should elect an exotic pet that is more gentle and can be clearly handled by children. Safety should also be a highest consideration when giving exotic pets to children.

Why not give your newborn a rabbit as an exotic pet? Rabbits are cuddlier and safer compared to other exotic pets like reptiles and the likes. Can you picture your daughter land a boa constrictor for a pet? Of course that would be the day! Nevertheless rabbits, well they look like stuffed toys they don’t even look like exotic pets at all!

Rabbits have become a familiar place today because there are people who breed rabbits for matter purposes. Some breed rabbits for their meat while some breed rabbits for reselling. Giving a rabbit to a product as an exotic pet would certainly be appreciated lacking the giver worrying about security and other issues.

Rabbits are somewhat cool to take concerning of excluding of course when you have to give the sincerity when temperatures go down. While rabbits are plain exotic pets, they also need tender loving caution so make clearly to educate the toddler on how to take nurture of the rabbit. Also ask the pet deposit about vaccines that may be given to the rabbit to make effective it is innocent and healthy.

When trade rabbits, make assured you get one with a good pedigree because they have a superior resale regard. In any task, rabbits with known and good pedigrees are better to breed and to take worry of as exotic pets.

Basset Hounds

Sunday, January 9th, 2011

The sad eyes and the long ears endear a Basset puppy to people everywhere. Used primarily to hunt rabbits his low to the ground body along with the hound nose and ears make for a good dog for those without a lot of room. Less than 14 inches in size this is a short legged, heavy bone, long bodied dog that is easy going in attitude.

These are extremely devoted dogs with loose, elastic skin that should be all weather useful. The color may vary somewhat with the typical hound colors allowed. As a trailing or tracking dog the Basset is second only to the bloodhound with a nose that is incredibly accurate. It is believed that Lafayette gave some Bassets to George Washington after the American Revolution.

Typical of many hounds, the Basset Hound is a friendly breed that loves people. Although they are short they can weight 55 up to even 75 pounds so learning proper manners inside and out is important. They are normally gentle dogs and, again typical of hounds, are social dogs that love their pack.

The traits that endear him to many make him an annoyance if unchecked. They have the hound voice which many love until they are alone and begin howling their displeasure to everyone within earshot. They MUST be confined as when that nose gets twitching and they find something to follow they can get hit by cars as well as look around 15 minutes later and have no idea how to get home.

The flews that allow the breed to funnel that scent to the nose can also be the source of drooling. This is a leading cause for the breed given up or abandoned – and is solely a human’s fault for not researching to be aware that is a Basset trait. If you are put off by doggie drool on the floor as you’re fixing dinner or feeding him his then please do yourself and the dog a favor and get another breed. There are some that drool less than others but this is not a job for meticulous housekeepers.

This is not a breed that is expensive to feed and indeed should be fed much less than many think. Do not let a Basset beg you into overfeeding. Overeating produces health problems for growing puppies as well as for adult dogs. Keep it basic and make sure he’s in proper condition – you should feel but not see ribs and there should be a slight rise from a profile behind the ribs. Too fat or too thin isn’t good – change the amounts until he’s maintained at a proper level.

The Basset hound by selection has a short coat that doesn’t take extensive grooming save for a weekly brushing to remove loose hair. Watch the ears and teeth as both will need regular care.

The Basset is generally a healthy breed but does have some serious issues that should be watched for and tested for in breeding stock. Von Willebrand’s disease is a clotting disorder. Like all deep chested breeds bloat is a serious concern that is life threatening when it happens. Some are affected by glaucoma.

Many veterinarians and owners are unfamiliar with panosteitis that affects young and growing Bassets. This is a disease that can cause sudden lameness and is sometimes diagnosed as elbow dysplasia or hip dysplasia or other serious disorders. Unethical vets may require surgery but this is something that the Basset will outgrow! X-rays may show ‘elbow incongruity’ – a poor fit in the elbow. This is normal for the breed and is not the source of lameness. This is NOT something that requires surgery! With panosteitis the dog normally will outgrow it. Some recommend aspirin or pain killers but this is a case of removing the pain can cause further aggravation of the injury.

Many Bassets may have allergies, ear infections, infections in the feet and injury or soreness from too much exercise in growing puppies. It’s important to note swimming is difficult for Bassets due to their short legs. Never leave a Basset unsupervised near a pond, pool or other water. Thrombopathia, eyelid issues, back issues and obesity can also be problems for the breed. The joints and spine cannot carry extra weight of an obese dog – don’t create problems for your Basset! Epilepsy and auto immune disorders can also be an issue.

Although there are certainly challenges involved in keeping and raising happy Bassets this is a breed that can be a hero dog because of the same things that can get him in trouble! This was illustrated when a seven year old Basset dragged his elderly owner to an area in the grass at their mobile park. Sinus issues prevented the owner from smelling but she heard and saw the damaged gas line and alerted neighbors. As word spread the gas fumes grew and emergency help was summoned. The Basset is credited with saving the mobile home park and, although “Buddy” had a heart condition his big heart and keen nose saved property and lives and allowed the quick repair of the line by professionals.

Basset Hounds may complete in conformation classes, field trials, hunt tests, obedience, tracking and – yes! – agility.

Tracking tests use the Basset hound’s nose and allows for a special bond of trust to form between the working dog and the handler. This is a sport for all kinds of weather and terrain – ideal for those who like being outside and seeing what their dog loves to do naturally. Not only is this a chance to compete but with particular training as a search and rescue dog the basset can be a hero!

Some famous Basset hounds include the comic strip Fred Basset, “Lafayette” in Disney’s The Aristocats, Cledus in “Smokey and the Bandit” and in a host of other movies including American Werewolf in Paris and Spider-Man 2. Of course one of the most identified is as the hallmark of Hush Puppy brand shoes and as a companion to the Maytag man.

Be it in advertising, film, competition, cartoons, pets or as show or competitive dogs the Basset Hound is a devoted companion and partner for the right people willing to put up with their quirks.

Large measures of discipline and praise, resisting the urge to feed too many treats and being keenly aware of the health issues that can arise means you will be happier and your Basset hound will be in heaven. Life is good with food, an accepting owner and someone to adore! It’s even better when activities are shared and the respect for what the breed truly can be is appreciated by letting the dog use his inborn talents.

How to Boost Your Website With Internet Marketing?

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

What if you had a very good website and still not able to get the visitors or customers? All you need is right kind of Internet Marketing.The tremendous growth of the Internet has created opportunities for consumers and firms to participate in an online global marketplace. The Internet has provided a rare opportunity especially for small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs). It moves organizations beyond the physical constraints of their traditional distribution channels and creates a world wide virtual community in which SMEs can compete with large enterprises.

When people are looking for a company to provide them with a product or service they are increasingly turning to the Internet to find it.You need to think: who you are and where do you want to be in the future. Whether offline or online, there are only two things that matter: “Buying” and “Selling”. Find out what your competitors are doing on the Web. Spend a few days checking out how your competitors are using the Web. Analyze each site. How does the site help tell the world about that company’s products or services; is it easy to use; is it enjoyable to use; does it add value to the company’s customer service; is it integrated with the company’s other marketing efforts.

Here are some of the Internet marketing Methods:

1.Email Marketing:is an important part of internet marketing. Build a list of the right kind of consumers for your products that you hope to target and obtain their email address. Send out only product information at certain, well-spaced intervals and also try to include some freebie or incentive, this does not need to be a high value product but definitely something important to your client base, doing this ensures that your emails are not ignored or put in spam.

2.Search Engine Optimization:If you want web browsers to visit your site, than focusing on search engine optimization and search engine marketing is a must. No Internet marketing plan is complete without ensuring that your site is submitted and included on major directories like Google, Yahoo!, and DMOZ. The dollars spent on Search Engine Marketing of any type will pay huge dividends.

3.Promote your Website:Once the king of Internet marketing, online banner ads have evolved to include animated and flash banners, but the premise remains largely the same. Marketers purchase a specified number of impressions to run on a single site or network of sites and are generally not guaranteed a specific number of clicks.

4.Blogs Writing:Blogs allow you to put up constant fresh content. This content is easy to get to online and is indexed quickly in search engines. This means that search engines can easily get to your blog and send individuals there. Having a blog on your website or one that contains links to your website can benefit your search engine rankings.It is essential that you focus your efforts on blogs covering topics relevant to your product or service offering.

5.Article Writing:Another method of Internet marketing that works well for many people is writing articles about the subject your website covers. If you own a website on raising rabbits chances are good that you are an expert in that area. If you write short articles about your subject and make those articles available free of charge to websites and forums that need content you can include a link to your website in the article and use them as free advertising to make people aware of your website.

6.Link Building:Web linking methods also come from outside sources. For example, you will see that with your blog, people will want to link their blog to your own. This is especially true when you write a great message on your blog that people want their readers to read. This gets yet another link pointing to your website.
Sites like Google offer pay-per-click advertising for anyone interested in getting their message in front of the right segment or prospective buyer. This method is highly targeted and offers one of the best and most popular forms of internet marketing. Marketers using pay-per-click advertising only pay a fee, based on the competitiveness of a keyword or ad title, when a link is clicked on

 

Internet Marketing Benefits:

  • More cost effective and flexible than offline advertising.
  • 24×7 days presence
  • Convenient to research a product
  • Value added customer satisfaction
  • Standardized sales performance
  • Improved credibility
  • Can establish two-way communicative marketing
  • Cheaper market research
  • Opportunity to expand marketing
  • Worldwide popularity
  • Diversified revenue streams

List Building Manage to Build Your List Effectively?

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

One of the best methods of Internet marketing is list building. List building concepts are generally built around finding people who have an interest in the subject of your website.
Internet marketing methods are varied, but one of the best methods of Internet marketing is list building. List building concepts are generally built around finding people who have an interest in the subject of your website. For instance, if your website is related to growing rabbits, you will naturally start to build a list of people who have an interest in growing rabbits also. For more detail go to: www.build-own-list.com.  A person who is not interested in this subject will have no interest in your website, or in joining your list.

With this in mind and a desire to build your list to its fullest potential, think about ways to promote your list to others that have an interest in your subject. Still using raising rabbits as an example, a person with this type of site might want to exchange links with other websites that cover the same subject matter. If your website is part of a business you will want to work with non-competing websites of course, but if it is business related there are probably many complementary websites out there. For instance, there might be websites for people who raise other animals: chickens, hamsters, white mice, or whatever. These sites are not in competition with you, but many people who raise rabbits may also raise white mice, or chickens or hamsters. For more help visit to: www.37-list-building-secrets.com. And the same is true in reverse. The owners of these websites may be open to the idea of exchanging links. They would put up links to your website and you would do the same for them. In that manner you can help each other and help the people who join your list and theirs.

Remember that your list needs to be opting in. People must choose to join your list in order to receive email from you. This is a standard procedure of netiquette or Internet etiquette. It is only polite. Your list should remain confidential. This is only good business practice.

Another method of Internet marketing that works well for many people is writing articles about the subject your website covers. If you own a website on raising rabbits chances are good that you are an expert in that area. If you write short articles about your subject and make those articles available free of charge to websites and forums that need content you can include a link to your website in the article and use them as free advertising to make people aware of your website.

Finding people to add to your list should not be difficult. Concepts of list building are simple. They just require getting the word out, and Internet marketing is a varied and diverse type of marketing. Ranging from simply putting your URL in the signature line of your email to affiliate programs to writing articles and doing link exchanges, you will find that there are many ways. List building concepts and methods of Internet marketing will start to come to you in your sleep when you begin to think like an Internet marketer.

Chinese Zodiac Compatibility : Ox and Rabbit

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

Good
The Ox-Rabbit combination is a good matching as both value the security and the peace in the realtionship. There is a certain amount of predictability in the relationship which is appreciated and accepted by both partners. Both avoid emotional confrontations. So if there is a difference of opinion, the stubborn Ox may silently hoild on to its point leaving the Rabbit feeling very miserable.

Ox Personality
The Ox is a very stable and reliable animal. Just like its animal counterpart that goes day after day helping the farmer to plough the field without a complaint, Ox people are very hardworking, stick at a task longer than anyone else and keep going. They are very meticulous and systematic and prefer to stick with the known rather than the unknowns. Ox people also divide the world into 2 categories – the good and the bad and they stick with their decisions without any regrets.

The Ox can be even-tempered for most part but if you have managed to anger the Ox then start running immediately because they can be very impulsive when they get angry. The Ox people are very possessive and protective in nature especially when it comes to family. They can very stubborn and conservative, but they are also very patient and caring which makes them a very good friend to have.

In love the Ox people usually choose a partner who will be quick to put a protective arm around them in times of need and their love for someone usually lasts a lifetime.

Rabbit Personality
Rabbits are private individuals, a bit introverted and withdrawn. People born into this sign would rather work behind the scenes instead of being the center of attention in any situation. For this reason Rabbits are misunderstood to be loners but they are not. In fact, they enjoy socializing more than anyone. Rabbits however do not like to be in very competitive environments. They like peace and harmony and serving people for good causes. Rabbits would be very good diplomats.

Rabbits are apt to be sensitive to ailments and allergies. Stress or conflict will affect the Rabbit’s health, one of the reasons why Rabbit personalities prefer to exercise to be stress-free. Rabbits are extremely organized people and prefer their homes and offices to be clutter-free.

Rabbits make good actors, sports people, musicians, teachers, administrative personnels, PR agents and fashion designers.

Rabbits, like their animal counterpart, are quite calm people who do not exhibit aggressive behavior and will avoid confrontation at all costs. When angry about something, a Rabbit will approach it calmly and considerately, hardly ever raising the voice or becoming visibly annoyed.
