Sorry; guinea-pig’s off - (USA)
A nonsensical campaign by an apparently American animal-rights outfit, which is outraged that people should consider eating guinea-pigs, reported by Metro . On Wikipedia it says: They originated in the Andes, and studies based on biochemistry and hybridization suggest they are domesticated descendants of a closely related species of cavy such as Cavia aperea, C. fulgida or C. tschudii, and therefore do not exist naturally in the wild.[1][2] The guinea pig plays an important role in the f

Quiz Time! - (USA)
So, it looks like it’s a Dog’s day afternoon in Threedonia. This got me thinking… It’s probably not PC to admit this, but I realized I tend to judge folks by the pets they keep. I think a dog can tell you a lot about its owner, as can cats, guinea pigs, goldfish, ferrets, lizards… Am I right? If so, what pets/breeds imbue a favorable impression, and which lead you to assume the owner is not someone you’ll get along with? And, the ultimate question; if you were a dog, what breed would yo

“Meet Mehitabel. She was born in PoPville, and has lived her entire life here. In December 2007, at the age of 5 months or so, she walked in the front door, having tired of living on the very cold streets with her mother (now spayed, but still on the street) and sisters (some in, some out, and all now spayed.) She quickly made friends with Mr Kitty http://www.princeofpetworth.com/2008/08/coolest-pet-in-popville-31-32-and-33/ who is now sadly gone, and made herself right at home inside. She d

Are Pet Stores seeing a 101 Dalmatian Effect after G-Force? - (USA)
Every time a dog movie comes out pet stores inevitably report that adoptions of that particular breed go up. Then a few months later they experience heavier than usual returns when families realize what a chore that breed is. In the biz it’s called 101 Dalmatians Effect. When I heard Disney was making a movie with Guinea Pigs as the star, I wondered if pet stores would experience a similar on the pint sized pets. At least one paper, the SF Weekly , is now reporting that Disney’s G-Force is ha

Choosing A Guinea Pig Cage - (USA)
Your pet rabbit or guinea pig is going to want some sort of living quarters since it is not likely that you are simply going to let it run around freely. There are so many hutches and cages available that it can be hard to select the right one for your rabbit or guinea pig. In addition to a hutch or cage, you could also require to locate a run. Hutches are mostly used for rabbits when you will be keeping them outside. They will permit your rabbit to stay warm in the cold months and cool in t

After Taking Guinea Pigs Home? - (USA)
Aug11 freetrafficFirst Days At HomeIt seems quite pleasing to grab your charming guinea pig and keep it in your hold during first few days, after you have brought it home. However, he needs some time to become habitual to his new setting, for it is a new spot for him. You must let them adjust to the new atmosphere, for he gets tense and stress in their new home. Therefore, loud noises and occasional peeping should be avoided at all costs. You should let him have his time to become habitual of t

Pet Show Day - (USA)
We were able to have our pet show today. It was really sunny, but also cold. It was so windy that one of our signs even blew away. I also had to talk loudly so that everyone could hear me. But, we made it and even though it was chilly, the children had a great time. For pet show day children are invited to bring their pets from home and show them off. If children don't have live pets at home, they are invited to bring in a pretend pet. We have our show at the beginning of class time. We make

Brad Balfour: Q&A: Comic Tracy Morgan Empowers His Inner Guinea Pig To Join G-Force - (USA)
From class clown to stand-up comedian and, finally, as a film and television star, Tracy Morgan has made his life and on-going bad boy adventures part of his stage persona. Weekly, he replicates this persona as his character--the whiney, clueless television star Tracy Jordan on 30 Rock. Whether doing his fictional sketch comedy series, TGS with Tracy Jordan or his animated analog, the secret agent Blaster--one of the G-Force guinea pigs--Morgan lends both a street credible smirk, a wink

How to Care for Guinea Pigs - (USA)
We mentioned earlier that there are concerns the G-Force film will make more kids want guinea pigs as pets. Debbye Turner Bell talked to Maggie Rodriguez from the CBS Early Show about how to properly care for pet guinea pigs. Debbye Turner Bell says guinea pigs are not good for small children and can require more care than cats. The cage requires daily cleaning which makes them a high maintenance pet.

An Ounce of Python Prevention - (USA)
“Swamp Things,” a fascinating article by Burkhard Bilger in the April 20 issue of The New Yorker , describes how the exotic pet industry has helped transform the state of Florida into “a biological cesspool of introduced life.” As fads of exotic birds, reptiles, and primates have come and gone, nonnative species have established themselves in the wild—transported by hurricanes or deliberately set loose by their owners. As Bilger explains: On a single tree you could conceivably find plants

Opossums & Family Pets - (USA)
If there is anything in this world that scares me, it's a rat. I can't stand them or any other rodents. And while I'm sure there are a lot of people who would agree with me on this one, I feel that most people wouldn't even think of adding opossums to their list of Feared Things, but I have. Being from Alabama, I have seen more than my share of these gross little creatures scurrying about at night. There was awhile in college when I worked on campus and most of my shifts ended at midnight.

Giant Boobs, Dead Radio Shows, Guinea Pigs - (USA)
Roughly 12 years ago, City Paper wrote a story about “Frances and the Working Girls,” a radio show starring a buxom woman (that would be Frances above) and mostly lady correspondents. It was sort of like the Daily Show, but on AM radio and with boobs. Sadly (I think?) it went off the air about two years later. Its home, WRC-AM 980, is also no longer with us (neither, it would seem, is the story in our somewhat lacking digital archives for 1996). Recently, I caught up with one of the correspon

Myostatin blocking gene therapy to be introduced for dogs; when will the first human athlete abuse i - (USA)
Prof Lee Sweeney of the University of Pennsylvania will be behind the introduction of a gene therapy approach to treat aged dogs who suffer muscular weakness. Apparently elderly dogs who become progressively weaker (this is generally called old age) need treatments so their owners can take the canines on walks. The therapy involves the injection of a genetically modified myostatin inhibitor that produces incredible muscular hypertrophy; the injection goes into the animal's liver. Once this g
