Can you answer spelldine43’s question about Pets?:
We live on the east coast, and will be moving to Arizona within two years. We have a lot of pets (cats, dogs, chickens, approx.40 total animals) to move with us. I want this as easy and painless as possible for the animals. Flying them is out of the question. Does anyone have any ideas how to do this?

I really want a pet, but I’m not sure what. So I was wondering what all of your answers would be. I live in a dorm before anyone asks.
This one girl has a ferret and someone has a gerbil. I want something small.
Also I’m in my room a lot, I’m not the big party hardy kind so I have a lot of love and attention time to give.

Dogs in Hot Cars

There has been a lot of publicity in the last few years and even recently about dogs being left in hot overheating cars in the hot summers, by now most people know that hot cars are a real danger for dogs but there are still some of you out there that don’t seem to take the situation serious enough, or don’t realise how quickly the situation can change.
Every year dogs die because they are trapped in a heated car while their owners go into a shop, store, or any other situation when the dog will be left for long periods of time.
Dogs do not have the ability to sweat in heated conditions causing them to overheat a lot quicker than humans, along with the dog’s big fur coat; this makes a recipe for disaster on a hot day. As the heat rises outside it can be less than 10 minutes before your dog is screaming to get out in the agonising heat of the car.
You may think that your car windows being slightly open will help your dog and keep them cool, but this is not the case. If your car windows are slightly open then there will not be enough fresh air coming in to cool your dog quickly enough and if you have your windows fully open you risk loosing your dog in an unfamiliar place or even get stolen.
When a dog overheats it causes a very agonising death, if you have to rescue or treat an over heated dog you should cool them down with cool water ( not cold, this could cause to much shock to the system), or use a wet towel and wrap them in it, feed them cool water or a nice ice cube to lick and then proceed to consult a vet about the situation and get a full examination for your dog.

Can you answer cyclopse_ca’s question about Pets?:
My wife and I have 3 pets (2 dogs and a cat) and our house seems to generate a lot of dust. Every day it seems we need to vacuum and dust to prevent our rooms from looking atrocious. Is there anything we can do to prevent pet hair and dust from setting on so many objects or some way to catch it?
