What do you think of this cat scratch post?

Im buying a new scratch post for my female cat who is 3 years old and my kitten who is turning a year old next month. anyway i want to buy them a new scratch post and its going in the front room.
kinda limited on space. and i want a scratch post that is a good size for them but not to big. and also i dont want it to be to small so only a kitten can fit in the bottom and use it.

anyway ive looked at loads of them!
done the measurements and wonder what you guys think about this one:

i would really love to buy of the really big ones, but like ive said im kinda limited on space, i could put a big one in the spare room i have, but i would like to see them use it.

im just not sure about the bottom wherever they will fit inside it?

Thanks!
i live in England

How do you build a bird house for Martins?

I have been trying to find "plans" on Google, how to build a martin bird house, but i can’t find anything. Does anyone think they could at least give me measurements? I know the basic design, but just not how big the holes for the birds to get in.

Anyone have any nice rabbit hutch designs?




Our old hutch is falling apart and we plan to build a new one this summer. I have 2 rabbits. We want for them to be in spearte sections by eachother and a 2 layer wire divider between them. We also want each of theor sides big enough so they have plenty of room to stretch out and beable to hop about. Wire shouldnt be the entire bottom but where droppings fall through the wire, we plan to have land on a slanted surface bekow so it can fall behind. The bottom section where most hutched have nothing, we want a nice storage area for chips, food, brushes, ect.
I know those are all so specific, Im mainly seeking any good sites with diagrams and measurements provided.
Thanks!

I’ve been looking online, but I’m not sure about all the measurements…one site even mentioned the height of the tracks. Can anyone tell me the specifics on how to go about buying the right one?

Thanks.

I have two male rats, who are around the ages of 2 1/2 years and 1 1/2 years. I am going away to college in about a month and I, sadly, cannot take my precious babies.

I currently have them housed in a "My First Home Deluxe Multi-Level Large".

The measurements are

I am helping out at a pet store that is closing (I work at one of them, but at a different location) and they have a ferret nation 142 for 50% off, and I can get an employee discount and a discount for turning in my current cage, which was worth about 75$ when I bought it.

Well, my parents won’t be able to let my two males roam as much while I’m away, and I was wondering if it is worth it to get a bigger cage. Also, the cage I have now is extremely light and easy to clean. I know the Ferret Nation is very heavy, I want to know how easy it is to clean. I use blankets as bedding.
I don’t want my parents to have to lift heavy things/unassemble with tools to have to give the cage a weekly cleaning.
What I’m trying to ask if the cage I have now better for my parents or would the Ferret Nation be easier (and make my rats happier)

My dad would probably just pour vinegar on the cage and hose it off to clean it.
And I was wondering if the ferret nation 142′s second level comes off without much of a struggle.

How big should a great dane's dog house be?




My husband is planning on building our dog a dog house for outside. We have great dane mix puppy only about 5 months old, he’s far from being full grown so i’m not sure what his full grown measurements will be. How big should an average great danes dog house be? we’ve looked at a few designs and we want to build one with a door on the front left side and inside it has a little half wall kind of thing so he can go to the right side and be blocked from the wind and rain and everything else. any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Rescue Member – STOP JUDGING… anywhere in my question did i say i lock him outside all the time? No i did not. I love my dog and he is a great companion. did it ever occur to you that when i do put him outside on occasion, that i would like him to feel just as loved as if he was inside with me? have you ever had so much company that you want your dog outside so he doesn’t bother them? i don’t want to just put him out in my back yard, this house is for him to be in when he just can’t be inside with me! Thank you for all your help!

anyone have a recipe for feeding raw dog food?




I have read most posts on here already. What I am loking for is a recipe that has measurements (I am horrible at estimating portions). I understand each dog may need different amounts, I just wanted a bulk recipe. I will not be able to feed the different meals (meat, veggie, ect.), at least to start. I was hopeing to be pointed towards a recipe which included supplements and all, as I found one a while back and forgot to save it. Thanks!
