This page is a work in progress. Eventually it will be full of articles giving a variety of information about the pets who share our lives. To start off we give you one link that is one of the most valuable pet resources on the Web. It is entitled CAN WE HELP YOU KEEP YOUR PET? and it is chock full of articles addressing various pet issues. Dog barking excessively? Living with cat allergies? Difficulty with house training your puppy? Cat not using the litter box? No time for your dog? Cat ruining the furniture? If it is an issue with a cat or dog, you will find something here to give you food for thought. The main factor behind solving any pet-related problem is deciding whether you are willing to do the work. We hope you are ... your pet is worth it.

Rabbit Education

The Ontario Rabbit Education Organization promotes the health and well-being of domestic rabbits in Ontario. They advocate that rabbits should be indoor house pets only and not kept outdoors in hutches or for breeding purposes. They have an information package you can download that is full of information for experienced, novice and future rabbit owners. With rabbits becoming a more and more popular house pet there is a need for better education so they are not needlessly abandoned or turned into humane societies when their hormone driven behavior becomes too destructive or too much for owners to handle.

Did you know?
...Spaying or neutering will help curb some of the most destructive behaviors like spraying, chewing and digging.
...Most rabbits, 85-90%, will develop some form of cancerous tumor by the age of 2 or 3 if not spayed or neutered...it is slightly less for males but still an incredibly high percentage.
...The average life span of a rabbit "set free" is about 2 days. Rabbits sold by breeders and pet stores are originally of European stock and cannot breed with the rabbits we have in the wild here. (They don't even have the same number of chromosomes!)
...House rabbits can live for up to 10-12 years. If your child is 8-10 years old now...it is possible that they will be in college and bunny will still need looking after!
