Pets across 

Cultures 

Cats, dogs, birds and 

other animal pets have 

lived alongside humans 

for thousands of years. We 

share our homes with them 

choosing our favorite species 

with bias that often 

depend upon our culture. 

In fact, pet preference varies 

from country to country. 

Russia Federation has the highest proportion 

of cat owners: 57% of households have 

a cat. You do not have to walk a cat outside 

in the snow during the long winters, so 

this might be a good reason to keep a cat 

instead of a dog. 

China has the highest proportion in the 

world of fish owners: 17% of household 

12 PETME Issue 83 DECEMBER 2019 

have fish and other water creatures kept in 

aquariums. This might reflect the Chinese 

inclination for small sized animals: think 

about the silkworm, first domesticated 5000 

years ago in China, or the singing cricket, 

domesticated as pet about 1500 years 

ago: singing and fighting crickets were the 

favorite pets of Emperors. Chinese people 

possess a unique attraction towards small 

creatures, which is embodied in the artistic 

obsession for flower, bird, fish and insect. A 

book named The Affairs of the period Tsin- 

Tao (742–756) mentions that “…whenever 

the autumnal season arrives, the ladies of 

the palace catch crickets in small golden 

cages ... and during the night hearken to 

the voices of the insects. This custom was 

imitated by all the people.” 

South Korea, on the other hand, has the 

lowest pet ownership in the world. Only 

32% of households have a pet. This aspect 

is probably influenced by the high cost of

living and the urban lifestyle of the South 

Koreans. A dog larger than a Maltese is not 

considered pet but a guard dog. Pomeranians, 

Chihuahas, Shih-tzus and toy dogs 

are given makeovers at the groomers, wear 

bejeweled collars, and live a life of luxury. 

White colored, purebreds dogs and anything 

that fits in a purse is a pet in Korea. 

An Asian pet has to be small! 

Conversely, India holds the fastest growth 

in dog ownership worldwide. Between 2007 

and 2012 there was a 58% increase in dog 

ownership, faster than anywhere else. 

When it comes to birds, Turkey has the 

highest concentration: 20% of homes have 

an avian pet. This is a tradition going back 

thousands of years. Persians and Arabs 

also share a predilection for singing and 

caged pet birds, such as bulbuls, canaries, 

finches, lovebirds and parrots, to name a 

fews. Persian mystical poetry has used the 

bird as symbol of the human soul that like a 

bird can choose to remain caged in this perishable 

body or fly towards liberation. Rumi 

often mentioned the soul as a nightingale in 

the company of ravens. 

Seventy millions of dogs and 73 millions 

of cats make the United States the world's 

biggest pet population. However, the record 

for the most dog-dense country goes to 

Argentina, where 66% of houses have at 

least one dog. Poodles and labradors are 

the most popular breeds followed by German 

shepherds. But about half of Argentine 

dogs are mix breed and 16 percent of dog 

owners said they had adopted stray dogs. 

Additionally, 80% of homes have at least 

one pet, making Argentina the most pet-addicted 

country in the world. With its rapidly 

growing economy Argentina is becoming 

the new doggie heaven! 

And what about the so called ‘exotic pets’: 

guinea pigs, hamsters, bearded dragons, 

tortoises, reptiles, spiders? In the Czech 

Republic 15% of homes 

have an exotic pet, a 

world record that reflect 

the Czech curiosity 

for anything new and 

diverse. It makes sense 

that the European 

School for Advanced 

Veterinary Studies (ES- 

AVS) hold his courses 

of “Exotic Pets Medicine 

and Surgery’ in Brno, 

Czech Republic!

Dangers of 

Extendable 

Leashes 

Extendable leashes are very 

popular among dog owners and 

are sold in most pets stores, as 

well as online and at some veterinary 

clinics. 

People choose these leashes thinking 

it gives their dogs extra freedom on 

walks. Unfortunately there are dangerous 

risks posed both for you and your 

dog when using these leashes. 

him run further and faster. The buttons on 

these extendable leashes also frequently 

malfunction, meaning you cannot control 

the length of cord extended or stop the cord 

from extending when your dog pulls. 

Extendable leashes also encourage pulling, 

since the more your dog pulls the further 

the lead extends. Constant pulling places 

pressure on your dog’s neck, throat and 

spine when walking on a collar or if walking 

on a harness places pressure and stress 

Extendable leases are basically a thin 

length of cord wrapped around a springloaded 

system that is packaged in a plastic 

housing with a plastic handle that fits your 

hand. There is a button that lets you control 

how much cord extends when your dog 

pulls on the leash. 

These plastic boxes that fit in your hand 

is difficult to securely and safely hold on 

to and can easily be dropped. A plastic 

box dropping next to your dog can easily 

frighten him and he might run off due to 

getting a fright, add on to that the plastic 

box is attached to his collar or harness and 

in effect “chasing” your dog, which is going 

to frighten your dog even more and make 

14 PETME Issue 83 DECEMBER 2019

on the shoulders, chest and spine. These 

constant pressures can lead to painful injury 

to your dog and often times chronic injuries. 

A dog at the end of an extendable leash can 

easily get into serious trouble - running into 

the road, running up to an aggressive or 

unfriendly dog, running up to people that are 

scared of dogs or do not want to have a dog 

touch them. It’s hard to get control of a situation 

when your dog is 5 meters away from 

you on a thin cord with a bulky uncomfortable 

plastic handle in your hand. 

The momentum that builds up when a dog is 

running on an extendable leash means the 

pull that they give when they reach the end 

of the leash is much more powerful and can 

lead to injury of both dog and human. When 

the leash runs out of cord there is a sudden 

jerk which can cause muscle injuries, spinal 

injuries, lacerations, burns, and bruising to 

your dog. If for whatever reason the cord of 

the extendable leash gets wrapped around 

your dog’s leg or tail and your dog pulls this 

can cause deep painful cuts and may even 

lead to amputation. 

Extendable leashes also pose some more 

risks to you, the human handling this device. 

Often times the cord from these leashes 

can snap and break, causing the leash to 

By RETHA LIZA COETZEE 

Director Emirates Kennel Club 

fling back violently and could possibly hit 

you in the face, causing painful and serious 

injury to yourself, particularly if it hits you in 

the eye. The thin cord can also easily wrap 

around your leg, arm, or finger and can lead 

to serious deep painful lacerations. 

For the safety and wellbeing of you, your 

dog, and other dogs and humans, please 

carefully consider before purchasing or using 

any form of extendable leash. 


TOYS TO PROTECT 

THE ENVIRONMENT 

ALKUPETS, an Ecuadorian company 

dedicated to the production and sale 

of pet toys, but with a totally different 

perspective. The problem of pollution 

by plastic waste is a recurring topic 

throughout the world and requires a 

commitment from both government 

entities and individuals. In order to 

attend this problem and deliver a 

product with different properties, 

ALKU was born as the only company 

that produces fully eco-friendly 

pet toys using a fabric which is obtained 

from plastic bottles, for each 

recycled plastic bottle, they make a 

new toy. So far, they have recycled 

more than 90 000 plastic bottles! In 

this way, they are committed to the 

environment and deliver a product of 

optimum quality. Using this material, 

they avoid the use of other materials 

that are harmful, such as rubber or 

toxic paint. These not only affect the 

health of pets, but also aggravate the 

problem of pollution in the world. 

They are currently exporting our toys to different 

parts of the world. However, their goal is to present 

the vision and philosophy of their company 

to many more places. 

How ALKUPETS born? 

Plastic waste represents one of the largest 

sources of pollution on the planet, the United Nations 

data is alarming because, according to this 

agency, around 300 million tons of plastic waste 

are produced annually in the world and much of 

these Waste ends up in the oceans, which is why 


it is said that by 2050, the seas will be so polluted 

that the amount of plastic waste will exceed the 

number of marine species. 

Looking at this recurring problem and with the 

purpose of being a contribution in the solution , 

ALKU was born , an Ecuadorian company that 

manufactures pet toys that are made from a fabric 

that is obtained from recycled plastic bottles, 

and being the only company that offers this type 

of products with 100% ergonomic and environmentally 

friendly designs. 

ALKU toys 

For each recycled plastic bottle, they make a 

new toy. They have already recycled more 

than 90,000 plastic bottles, demonstrating their 

commitment to the environment. ALKU toys are 

eco-friendly are completely pleasant for pets. 

They do not harm your pet’s health, since they do 

not contain toxic elements such as paint, rubber, 

even elaborate plastic, like most traditional toys. 

With this they deliver a product of difference, but 

of optimal quality while helping our planet 

ALKU’s expansion 

ALKU currently distributes its products in the 

largest and most well-known supermarket chain 

in Ecuador. They are already exporting their 

products to countries such as Mexico, Panama, 

Chile or Sweden. The intention of the company is 

to continue growing and penetrating many more 

markets internationally. 


ZOETIS SYMPOSIUM IN DUBAI 


ZOETIS SYMPOSIUM IN DUBAI

Kidney and Urinary Tract 

Disorders in Birds 

Even birds can suffer from kidney 

and urinary tract disorders like 

humans and other animals. A bird 

can show different symptoms depending 

on the actual kidney and 

urinary tract disorder. 

Generally, one or more of the following 

symptoms are seen. 

• Increased urination 

• Change in color of urine 

• Blood in urine 

• Chemical imbalance in the blood 

• Increased or decreased thirst 

• Difficulty in walking or movement 

• Lethargy 

• Depression 


Depending on the reason, there are many 

kidney and urinary tract disorders. The most 

common are: 

• Gout – Uric acid deposits in the joints and 

surrounding tissues due to kidney damage 

cause gout. There is difficulty in movement 

with red and swollen joints. 

• Stones – There can be stones in the 

kidney or urinary tract of the bird. The bird 

will urinate less due to pain and there may 

be blood present in the urine. 

• Infections – Poxvirus and psittacosis are 

two deadly infections that cause multiple 

organ damage, including kidney and urinary 

tract disorders. Other infections can also 

cause kidney and urinary tract disorders. 

• Renal failure – The kidneys could stop 

functioning due to a severe or untreated 

kidney, or urinary tract disorders. 

Kidney and urinary tract disorders in birds 

can be due many reasons, including infection, 

any injury, due to other existing diseases. 

Developing or existing Tumor or cancer 

could also affect their kidney and urinary 

tracks. Damage to other organs could 

also cause this. Nutritional deficiencies are 

sometimes the cause of these infections. 

Due to excess of Calcium, vitamin D or 

Phosphorus in the feed could also bring out 

these infections. During summer or in sickness 

Dehydration could cause infection in 

the Kidney and Urinary tracks. 

If there are any signs of unusual behavior, 

take your bird to the veterinarian and get 

proper advice in treating kidney and urinary 

tract disorders. Based on the tests and 

examination, your veterinarian will recommend 

a proper course of treatment. 


What Some Pet Food Companies 

Don’t Want You to Know About 

Added Fats 

Say you had a cup of olive oil 

and a cup of kitchen grease. 

Which would you rather have on 

your salad? 

Of course, that’s a silly question. 

And besides, what’s that got to 

do with pet food? 

Well, unfortunately, more than 

you might care to know. 

The Good 

Like protein, the fat component of commercial 

dog food should come from named 

sources. Below is a list of higher quality fat 

sources in dog food. You will notice that you 

can recognize the exact source of each of 

these. 

You see, any time you shop for pet food, 

you’re unwillingly making an important 

decision, much like that “oil-or-grease” 

example given above. 

That’s because commercial Pet foods 

frequently contain added fat. You probably 

already know that. 

The building blocks of fats are fatty 

acids, some of which dogs require in 

their diet because their body cannot 

make them. These are called essential 

fatty acids and are divided into two 

groups, the omega-3 and the omega-6 

fatty acids. 

Yet it’s the source of that fat that can make 

a huge difference in the overall quality of 

the dog food you buy. 


Chicken fat - Herring oil - Canola oil 

Sunflower oil - Safflower oil - Flax oil - 

Beef fat - Lamb fat - Pork fat 

As long as they’re reasonably fresh, all 

these fats contain essential nutrients. 

However, good fats can be costly — too 

costly for some profit-first pet food companies 

to use in their products. 

The Bad 

Lower quality, questionable sources of fat 

are of ‘unnamed’ sources including: 

Animal fat - Poultry fat - Vegetable oil - 

Mineral oil - Beef tallow - Lard 

The Ugly 

That list looks scary. 

Let’s take a look at animal fat. According to 

AAFCO, here is the definition of animal fat: 

Animal fat is obtained from the tissues of 

mammals and/or poultry in the commercial 

process of rendering. 

The issue with animal fat is that we really 

don’t know where it comes from. It could be 

from by-products (which we have written 

about in the past), slaughterhouse waste, 

dead or diseased farm animals, and worse 

(you don’t want to know). Not very appetizing 

is it? 

The Bottom Line 

For this reason, do not consider generic 

animal fat a quality ingredient. 

So, when you see anonymous fats like 

these on a dog food label, you may wish to 

consider purchasing another product. 


Feline Aggression 

Feline aggression may be directed 

towards people, cats, or other 

animals. Because cat social 

behavior is less structured than 

dog social behavior, categories 

of aggression are not as distinct. 

ggression Towards People can 

Abe divided into two categories: 

lay Aggression: Play-related ag- 

is seen primarily in kittens and 

Pgression 

young cats. Play behavior can be vigorous 

and cause injuries. Such cats may stalk 

and pounce on the owner's legs and arms, 

biting or clawing uninhibitedly. Most cats will 

grow out of this behavior, although in some 

instances, treatment may be necessary. 


Treatment involves two main principles, 

redirecting the aggression towards a toy 

and/or remote punishment techniques. Cats 

respond best to toys that are not continu- 

Disorder 

ously available. Therefore, it is best to find a 

toy that your cat likes and then after playing 

with it, remove it from his\her environment 

until it is needed to redirect his\her attention. 

Remote punishment is a means of deterring 

the unwanted behavior by using a water 

gun, spray bottle or a can full of pennies 

rolled at the individual when the undesired 

act is displayed. 

I diopathic: 

This refers to severe, recurrent aggression 

for which there is no identifiable stimulus. 

Such behavior may be associated with 

disorders like hypothyroidism, renal failure, 

seizures, or feline ischemic encephalopathy. 

Euthanasia may be the only safe option 

for severe, refractory cases.

ggression Towards Cats may be 

Adivided into two categories: 

erritorial Aggression: 

TAggression toward other household 

cats is characterized by ongoing unilateral 

aggression, often accompanied by vocalizing 

and chasing. This aggression may be 

directed specifically to only one particular 

individual cat. 

Treatment of territorial aggression is difficult; 

for severe problems the best solution 

may be to find one of the cats a new home. 

Long-term separation and drug therapy with 

progestins may be beneficial. 

ear-Related Aggression: 

FFear-related aggression is exhibited by 

fearful postures and actions. These are 

hissing, crouching, switching of the tail, ears 

flat, pupils dilated and running away. 

These individuals may respond to antianxiety 

drug therapy. Also, separation and 

gradual reintroduction of the cats may be 

helpful. During the reintroduction phase, 

the fearful cat should have greater access 

to the home so that self-confidence is 

regained. 

ggression Toward Other Animals 

Ais mainly in the form of: 

redatory Aggression: 

PCats may injure or kill other household 

animals, such as rodents, birds, or fish, or 

they may attack small animals outdoors. 

Remains are often brought inside the home 

and presented to the owner. 

Preventing the occurrences 

is best 

done by keeping 

your cat indoors 

at all times. If you 

must let your cat 

go outside periodically 

or live outside 

then you can place 

a bell collar on him\ 

her. This will reduce 

the success of the 

hunting episodes 

by warning potential 

prey animals. 


Babesia & Tick Infections In Dogs 

Babesias are microscopic blood 

parasites that cause disease in 

many animals. This group of protozoal 

organisms are spread from 

dog to dog by ticks. Two kinds of 

babesia, B. canis (“large” babesia) 

and B. gibsoni (“small” babesia) 

cause the sudden destruction 

of blood known as acute 

hemolytic anemia in dogs. 

These parasites live within the red blood cells 

of your pet. B. gibsoni was associated with 

Asia, Africa and the Middle East. There are 

three subtypes of B. canis that differ in strength 

(virulence), where they are found and which tick 

species is likely to carry them. The most common 

strain is B. canis vogeli which is the weakest of 

the strains. Most dogs infected with this babesia 

show no symptoms. However, occasionally 

young dogs will become quite ill. These ill dogs 

are very pale and anemic and their blood fails to 

clot. Dogs that have improved on their own may 

relapse with stress and exertion. 

When your pet encounters a tick that has fed on 

an infected dog, the disease is transmitted. There 

have been a few instances where pregnant dogs 

spread the parasite to their unborn puppies and 

a few where the disease was spread through a 

dog bite. 

Diagnosis of Babesiosis In Dogs 

There are three forms of the disease, peracute, 

acute, and chronic. In the fulminating or peracute 

form, young dogs arrive at the animal hospital 


not eating, depressed and weak. Their gums are 

very pale and they are generally running a fever. 

Often these dogs recently weathered a stressful 

situation such as another illness, heavy exertion 

or surgery. Dogs that have this disease usually 

arrive with substantial anemia. They are often 

jaundiced (yellow) due to large amounts of blood 

pigments present in their skin. This occurs when 

destroyed red blood cells overwhelm their liver’s 

ability to process them. The color change is 

particularly apparent in the whites of the eyes of 

these pets. Babesia gibsoni organisms can easily 

be overlooked in a blood smear because they 

are small, usually single and variable in shape 

(pleomorphic). A blood sample for an indirect 

fluorescent antibody test to be taken. Dogs with 

the peracute form of the illness can die before 

their treatment has a chance to take effect and 

dogs that have recovered may still have positive 

antibody tests. The best test currently available is 

the PCR-test (polymerase chain reaction test). 

In the acute form of the disease the same 

symptoms are present but they are less severe. 

In the chronic form of the disease the dogs just 

don’t have much energy. They are anemic but not 

severely so. Examination of the blood from these 

pets may not detect the parasite. One does find a 

large number of immature red blood cells (regenerative 

anemia) because the body sends them 

into circulation prematurely to make up for those 

that are lost to the disease. These dogs also 

have a very enlarged spleen. If the dog is not 

overweight or anxious, this can be readily felt by 

the veterinarian. The pets are rarely jaundiced. 

Most owners complain that their dog just doesn’t 

have the pep it once did. These dogs are usually

thin and if they run a fever it is low and intermittent. 

Kidney and liver function in these dogs is 

often poor. Laboratory tests on the blood of these 

patients show, besides regenerative anemia, 

increased red cell pigments free in the blood and 

urine. Sometimes, enzymes that measure liver 

function (AP, ALT and LDH) as well as tests that 

measure kidney function (BUN, Creatinine) are 

elevated, indicating damage to these organs. 

Unfortunately this disease is often misdiagnosed 

as autoimmune hemolytic anemia because tests 

for autoimmunity become positive in babesiosis. 

In dogs that succumb to the disease pathological 

examination of the liver often shows severe 

hepatitis (centrilobular hepatitis), inflammation 

of the arteries (multi focal necrotizing arteritis) 

and kidney inflammation (membranoproliferative 

glomerulonephritis) as well as inflammation of the 

lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy) 

Treatment of Babesiosis 

If your pet is severely anemic, it may require a 

blood transfusion. 

In dogs that are not treated, the chronic stimulation 

of the immune system, associated with 

persistent infection can result in chronic kidney 

inflammation (glomerulonephritis), liver failure 

and inflammation of the blood vesicles (vasculitis). 

Each of these problems require treatment of 

their own. 

This disease is to be treated with anti-babesiosis 

drugs, intravenous fluids, blood building tonics 

and good nursing care. Unfortunately, all medications 

that kill this parasite are harsh on your pet's 

body. Treatment with these drugs should not 

be undertaken solely on the basis of parasites 

having been seen in your pet's blood or a positive 

antibody test in the absence of marked anemia. 

These medications may not kill all the parasites. 

Some dogs treated by this method recover very 

rapidly but others do not. Many cases relapse 

and those that do recover may become chronic 

carriers that transmit the disease to other dogs. 

How To Prevent This Disease? 

The secret of keeping the dog free of babesia is 

good tick control. 

Check your pet and yourself daily for ticks and 

remove them. Be particularly thorough in brushing 

and combing if your pet has been in high 

weeds or brush. In removing the ticks try not to 

crush them. The best way I have found to remove 

them is to grasp the ticks mouth parts as close to 

the skin as possible with a pair of small tweezers 

and pull the tick away removing all of the head a 

small tag of skin. Ticks secrete a liquefying enzyme 

into the skin surrounding their mouth parts. 

Removing a small tag of skin with the tick allows 

for quicker healing in the long run. 

Treat your yard with insecticides approved for 

controlling ticks or hire a professional to do so. 

Uses shampoos and dip products that kill and 

repel ticks. 

Keep your yard closely mowed. Clear brushy 

areas that harbor ticks and trim your trees so that 

sunshine reaches the ground. 


How To Stop 

Your Macaws 

Screaming 


The technique I’m about to share 

with you has been used on my own 

macaws, and by thousands of others 

as well. It’s a time tested technique 

that works for virtually all parrots, 

and is a surefire, gentle technique 

for getting your macaw to stop 

screaming. 

And to be fair, this technique works best when 

used on parrots who are screaming for your attention, 

and will probably be ineffective on parrots 

screaming out of fear, aggression or jealousy. If 

you think this is your parrot and want to try our 

course you can check out our other information 

on training macaws. 

What is this magical technique? 

Simple! “Replacement” behaviors. 

It’s easier to train a parrot to DO something, than 

it is to make them NOT to do something. That 

means that if your parrot is screaming, and you 

try to train it to NOT scream, you’re going to be 

fighting an up-hill battle. 

Instead you should brainstorm a list of behaviors 

that you’d like your parrot to perform as a way to 

“replace” his screaming. 

Remember, we’re dealing with macaws who are 

screaming for attention, so think of an acceptable 

behavior that you’d like your parrot to call for you 

with. This lets the macaw still be able to call for 

you, but would be much quieter. 

Train Your Parrot To Call For You 

With Words! 

That’s Right! Many parrots can talk, so why not 

use that to your advantage. If you have a parrot 

that likes to talk. Start rewarding him with treats, 

attention and praise whenever he says a phrase 

you’d like him to start calling you for. Before you 

know it your parrot will realize that every time he 

says the “magic words” he gets your attention. 

This doesn’t mean you need to run over to him 

every time he says his “magic phrase” but you 

should at least call him back, to let him know 

where you are. Many parrots in the wild use contacting 

calls with their other flock mates. And if 

you’d just give your parrot a quieter means to call 

you by, he’d be happy to change, if it meant getting 

your attention more. And if you own a parrot 

who can’t talk, this method will still work for you. 

Just train it to make a quieter noise, or maybe a 

whistle. It’ll accomplish the same thing. 

Get Your Parrot To Play With Toys 

Instead 

Another fantastic way to train your parrot to stop 

screaming is to reward him with attention when 

he starts playing with his toys. It helps a parrot 

who’s screaming for your attention because he’s 

bored, and teaches him that he can entertain 

himself if he’d just play with his toys. 

I personally taught this behavior to my Macaw, 

by rewarding him with small treats whenever he 

touched his toys. He realized that if he just went 

over and touched his toys he would get a treat. 

So I continued to up the ante, making him bite at 

the toy, then climb on the toy, then thrash the toy 

around, until he literally started having more fun 

thrashing the toy around than he did eating the 

treats I was trying to give him. 

And that’s the whole POINT! To train the bird 

that it’s a heck up a lot of fun to play with toys! 

This will help your bird to not want your attention 

as much, thus not scream for you as much, and 

instead happily play with his toys . 

Now you can see how easy training replacement 

behaviors can be? All you really need 

are a few of your parrots favorite treats, and a 

few spare minutes of time to catch your parrot 

doing a behavior you’d like him to replace 

his screaming with. And as long as you consistently 

reward your parrot for performing 

that behavior, and remember to IGNORE his 

old, BAD behavior, your parrot will be stand 

a good chance of kicking his bad screaming 

habits to the curb. 


Poisoned Pets 

Treatment for a poisoned dog 

or cat is specific for the poison 

involved and the symptoms. 

If your pet just gobbled up 

poison, the treatment may begin 

by making your pet vomit. Your 

veterinarian will tell you whether 

or not to induce vomiting based 

on what your pet ate. 

Your veterinarian will explain how 

to get your pet to vomit using salt 

water, dilute hydrogen peroxide, 

or Ipecac. 

induce vomiting. In cases like this, your veterinarian 

may tell you to give your pet activated 

charcoal to adsorb the poison. Endosorb can 

also be used to adsorb toxins in the stomach and 

intestines. It is available as tablets or liquid and 

is less messy than charcoal. Your pet may also 

need IV fluids. 

About 25% of poisoned pets recover within two 

hours. Of the pets that take longer to recover, 

many can be treated at home with the advice of 

your veterinarian. Even with treatment, one in 

100 poisoned pets dies. 

One type of poisoning for which vomiting is often 

prescribed occurs when your pet swallows a 

handful of a medication, such as aspirin, blood 

pressure pills, or too many of his or her own 

medications. On other occasions, your veterinarian 

will tell you not to induce vomiting. Vomiting 

is actually harmful if your pet ate something that 

will cause a lung infection if any of the vomitus 

is coughed into the lungs. For example, poisons 

that contain petroleum products cause lung 

infections (aspiration pneumonia) when vomited. 

If your pet swallowed paint thinner (a petroleum 

product) your veterinarian will tell you not to 


Your pet has the best chance of survival if you 

get help immediately. 

Steps for Taking Care of a Poisoned Pet 

1. Notify your veterinarian. 

2. Keep your pet calm. 

3. If the poison is on your pet’s skin, bathe him or 

her. Rinse. Rinse. Rinse. 

4. If the poison was ingested, get a sample of 

the poison’s container so your veterinarian can 

determine the best treatment. 

5. Give activated charcoal or Endosorb (as recommended 

by a veterinarian) for poisons such as 

chocolate or bromethalin. 

For charcoal to work fully, give ten times as much 

charcoal as poison. The charcoal is often given 

multiple times rather than all at once. Charcoal 

causes diarrhea in some pets and constipation 

in others. The stools are dark black. Don’t give 

charcoal when your pet is poisoned with an oil. 

When advised to do so, induce vomiting. Never 

induce vomiting in an unconscious or convulsing 

pet, or in horses, rabbits, and rodents because 

they don’t vomit. 

To induce vomiting use 3% hydrogen peroxide at 

1-2 teaspoons/10 lbs. Insert a syringe or squeeze 

bottle between back teeth to give hydrogen 

peroxide to cats. Repeat the dose in 10 or 15 

minutes if your pet hasn’t vomited. 

At the veterinary clinic, vomiting might be induced 

with Ipecac, which is diluted with equal parts of 

water and given to provide 1ml/lb for dogs, and 

1 Â½ ml/lb for cats. Unlike hydrogen peroxide, 

which may be repeated if your pet has not vomited 

after the first dose, Ipecac is not repeated. 

Activated charcoal is not given with Ipecac. 

Use salt water to induce vomiting only when 

instructed to do so by your veterinarian because 

salt can cause salt toxicosis (poisoning) in some 

pets. 

What Your Veterinarian Might Do if Your Pet is 

Poisoned 

For pets that shouldn’t or can’t vomit, your veterinarian 

may give your pet an anesthetic to flush 

the stomach. Gastric flushing removes a large 

amount of material, and removes materials that 

are slow to exit the stomach. Veterinarians will 

not use this technique with convulsing pets, or 

with pets that swallowed caustic materials such 

as bleach or petroleum products. 

Preventing Further Damage From Poisoning 

After being poisoned, your pet’s liver and kidneys 

may be affected. Antioxidants, herbs, homeopathics, 

and liver supplements that benefit the 

liver and kidneys help these damaged organs 

heal. Omega 3 fatty acids will help control inflammation. 


Nano Reef Aquariums 

Nano Reef aquariums are so 

popular these days. Who wouldn't 

want a tiny portion of the ocean sitting 

on their desk? Especially when 

it costs a fraction of what larger reef 

systems cost. A nano reef delivers 

endless fascination, from the 

saunter of its careful invertebrates 

to the abrupt retreat of its bashful 

fish. Every alcove contains a 

hidden wonder. For seasoned 

hobbyists, a nano reef offers an 

exciting challenge with beautiful 

rewards for home or office. If you're 

thinking about a nano reef, consider 

the following for nano reef success 

Miniature Reefs 

In the most practical sense, all home reef 

aquariums are miniature reefs when compared to 

expansive natural reefs. However, the term “nano 

reef” generally refers to a miniature reef system 

that is typically 30 gallons or less, housing corals, 

invertebrates, and perhaps a few fish. That’s a lot 

of complexity in a small space. 

What thrives on a nano reef? 

Specimens characteristic of a nano reef include 

Polyp Corals and Soft Corals like Cabbage 

Leather, Thin Finger Leather, and Tree Corals. 

Mushroom Corals are also appropriate, such as 

green-striped, lavender, and bull’s-eye. If you 

choose to have fish in your nano reef aquarium, 

small fish species such as gobies, firefish, and 

blennies are suitable in the nano environment. 

Nano system specimens must be chosen carefully 

to avoid overcrowding. Small fish, with maximum 

adult size of only a few inches, are the best 

choices. They must be introduced slowly, only a 

few fish at a time over a period of several weeks. 

With Soft Corals and Polyp Corals, select species 

that tend to grow slowly. Fast-growing species 

will take over your limited aquarium space and 

may even overtake less hardy species. 

Looks easy, but is it? 

The modest size of a nano reef aquarium gives 

an impression of effortless maintenance. In reality, 

the challenges of a marine reef setup in such 

a confined space make a nano reef a delicate 

undertaking, best-suited for an experienced or 

dedicated hobbyist. The reason is simple. These 

small aquariums are more susceptible to changes 

in water quality and temperature because they 


such as the Eshopps Nano Skimmer offer crucial 

supplemental filtration to maintain ideal nano reef 

conditions. 

Use live rock and/or live sand to supplement and 

foster natural biological filtration. They also give 

invertebrates and fish a place to burrow and hide 

and provide necessary nutrients. 

Daily observation and testing - Daily testing lets 

you detect and remedy any problems you discover 

right away before they become disastrous. 

Perform small water changes (about 10-20%) 

weekly to help maintain good water quality. 

To avoid nuisance algae and to keep your fish 

healthy and stress-free, change your filter media 

according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. 

contain a smaller volume of water. When waterquality 

issues or temperature fluctuations occur, 

they can progress quickly to place great stress 

on the system and can ultimately result in failure. 

How to get started 

In an enclosed ecosystem like the nano reef, 

everything is amplified - the amazement, the 

wonder, and also the management. Observe 

daily, test often, and always remedy the problems 

you discover within the same day. 

Select a nano reef aquarium kit - Leading aquarium 

manufacturers now offer technologically 

advanced kits that include an aquarium with the 

filtration and lighting built in, such as the Nano 

Cube. These systems have been designed to 

provide the appropriate type and amount of lighting, 

as well as the advanced filtration required 

to stay on top of waste buildup. “Nano” products 


CAT LITTER SELECTION! 

a CHALLENGE & the SOLUTION 

With the love of the cats comes too some of the hassles and the biggest one in the selection of the 

litter for them. Our feline pets are finicky about many things and their toilet habits are one of them. Pet 

owners had an experience of trial & error before they land up on right litter for their cats. It is costly and 

painful experience. With galore of options & claims of each of the brands, itincreases to the confusion 

of decision making. 

If we approach the selection of the right litter based on the following issues linked to the litter and the 

daily routine of cats and their pet parents, it shall remove some clouds of confusion. 

1.Bad odor- Cat litter and bad odor is so much linked that different brands make their sales stories 

based on the claims of their brands abilities to remove or manage bad odor. 

2. Germs and Hygiene- This is the least highlighted but is THE MOST IMPORTANT factor which shall 

decide the selection of right litter. Cats can track the germs of the litter box all around the home including 

kitchen and your bedrooms. You should be more careful if you have kids at home. 

3. Dust – Most of the litters are dusty and every time when you are refilling the litter box, you and your 

kids are inhaling the dust. Also, cat when in the litter box can rake the dust. It shall not be healthy on 

long term basis for your lungs. 

4. Clump which does not fall apart- Every time you the remove clump, most of the time it shall break 

away. It shall create more hassles and shall ask for more efforts. It is nuisance some time. 

5. Environment– Most of the people are sensitive about environment. They are not worried only for 

the disposal of litter in the environmentally safe way but also about the production of the litter in the 

environmentally safe way. 

6. Economics– This is not the least and last but sometime or for some the first and the most important 

factor. But economics is complex and cannot be compared directly in kg/cost but along with other 

costs of - nuisance of odor, hygiene and Germs, Dust, Hassle and environment. But in the end, we all 

do our own economic analysis based on our awareness & sensitivity. 

I recommend one of the latest innovations in the cat litter category called BOXIECAT. It is the first litter 

with PROBIOTICS with patented strain of good bacteria which kills all the bacteria in the litter box 

keeping your litter and home clean. There is no tracking of bacteria around your home. It is dust free 

as all the dust is sucked while packing it in the factory. It is uniquein a way that it is only litter which 

CLUMPS FLAT & clump does not break on collection. It makes the litter to last long and easy to clean. 

BOXIECAT is environmentally very cautious and have green policies. You can check their all green 

initiatives on their website. Boxiecat is priced little higher on kg/cost 

comparison but is cheaper on value delivered/ cost. 

HAVE YOU TRIED BOXIECAT WITH YOUR CAT!

Tips for PET Owners! 

In case your dog is suffering from 

the common problem of ticks or 

fleas then try the following home 

remedy. Grind a few orange rinds to 

a paste and apply on fur. Keep on 

for, four to five hours and see the 

ticks and fleas vanish. Easy isn’t 

it? This remedy is effective in most 

case and is easy to make and apply. 

It is completely herbal and also safe 

for most dogs. 

Another pre-emptive measure and also an effective 

treatment for the problem of fleas and ticks 

in your pet dogs’ coat, involve its diet. Try to add 

two to three finely chopped garlic flakes to its 

food. Mix well into the food and let the pet eat it. 

This is very effective measure against the dog 

getting ticks in its fur. 

Many dogs have cracked and dry paws. An effective 

low cost treatment is to apply petroleum 

jelly or Vaseline to its paws. Apply daily for two 

to five days and the cracked and dry paws will 

smoothen out. As the cracked paws heel, the 

dog’s behavior will see an improvement also. 

Do try to add a few drops of vinegar to your 

dogs’ bath water. This will keep his coat smelling 

sweet. No more bad smells or unhygienic odour. 


This is an easy and effective home remedy for a 

common problem. 

It is difficult to keep the dog clean and hygienic 

during winters. The dog avoids taking a bath 

and consequently gets dirty and can be a source 

of infection for the family. In this case, try using 

soda bicarbonate on its fur as a dry shampoo. 

Rub vigorously and the dog will come out clean. 

To deter a puppy from chewing furniture legs, 

wipe the legs with a little clove oil. The puppy 

will stop chewing them. The furniture will stay 

safe and sound while the puppy learns to use 

something else. 

A common problem in households having pets is 

the falling hair that keeps sticking and adhering 

to various articles. To pick up the pets hair, from 

a blanket or furnishing fabric, wet a sponge and 

run it over the article. The hair will stick to the 

damp sponge and the article will look as good 

as new. 

Feeding a pill to a dog can be tiresome, especially 

if the pet already has tasted the thing in 

the past and does not like it. Wrap the pill in a 

cheese slice and roll it into a ball. The dog will 

be fooled into eating the cheese ball. You can 

also hide the pill in some other food the dog 

likes and feed it when it least suspects 

If you keep your pet feeding dish outside, you 

may suffer the problem of ants getting into the 

pet food. An effective and easy solution is to 

keep one small dish inside a bigger dish and fill 

the bigger dish with water. This will create an 

effective water barrier and the ants will not be 

able to get to the food. Another way is to sprinkle 

Turmeric powder around the area you want free 

of ants. However this may be an expensive option 

and water barrier is an easier way anyway. 

Pet proof your balcony by using plastic webbing 

on the space between the railing bars. Weave 

the webbing all around the open spaces and then 

secure the ends tightly. Test by pushing on it. This 

should create a reasonably secure area for your 

pet to play in. Of course supervision is always 

recommended because a determined pet can 

chew through anything. 

Keeping the dog house odor free can be a challenge. 

One easy solution is baking powder. Sprinkle 

baking powder around the inside of the dog 

house and then cover with an indoor mat. You 

can also remove persistent odors by cleaning the 

dog house with diluted white vinegar or a mixture 

of water and baking powder. 

It is difficult to keep bandages on pets. However 

it is sometimes necessary to keep a bandage on 

a pet. Dogs normally pull bandages off their legs 

and bodies with their mouth. One easy way to 

stop this is to put a sweat band over the bandage. 

This sweat band is flexible and does not allow the 

dog to reach the bandage. It serves as an effective 

solution to a difficult problem. 

You can stop doggy shakes after a bath by grasping 

the dog firmly around his nose. Many dogs 

start their shaking from around the nose is and 

this hold can stop you from getting unpleasantly 

wet as you dry your pet. This trick does not work 

with all kinds of dogs, so experiment a bit, to 

check if it works for you.

Home Remedies 

Hello! 

I am Mama Camalia and here are some 

usefull home remedies for the wellness of 

your pets. These remadies are natural and 

for preventaive purpose. Incase of acute 

illness you should contact your 

Vet immediately. 

Homemade Puppy & 

Kitten Milk Replacer 

When your Dog or Cat delivers a new litter and unfortunately the Mamas can't provide 

her own milk for her pups / kittens you may have serious problem of finding 

the right feed for the new born babies. Some dogs who deliver by cesarean section 

don't get their milk right away. Other times, Mommy may be unwilling to nurse her 

babies or, even if she is on board with the notion, she may not have enough milk. 

In such cases, here is an effective formula you can whip up a batch of your own at 

home 

Items You Will Need 

• 1 14 ounce can of evaporated milk 

• 2 egg yolks 

• 1 cup plain whole-milk yogurt 

• 1 teaspoon light corn syrup 

• 1 cup water, boiled and cooled to room temperature 

• Blender 

Step1 - Pour the evaporated milk, egg yolks, yogurt and corn syrup into the blender and put the lid in 

place. 

Step 2 - Turn the blender on at a low setting to mix the ingredients together. 

Step 3 - Pour the water into the mixture in the blender and blend briefly again to mix thoroughly. 

Make it diluted with more water in the first days and feeding every two hours and increase the thickness 

in the next days. 

Store the puppy formula in an air-tight container in the refrigerator. Discard any unused puppy replacer 

after a week and mix up a new batch. 

Consult your Vet about adding vitamins to the formula. They aren't always necessary, but vitamins 

can benefit underweight or sickly puppies.
