Molting or something else? He’s acting completely fine. I can probably take him to the vet after this holiday weekend if needed.

Fellow USA friends, please keep you and your dogs safe during this extreme heat!

Please do not take dogs outside for extended periods of time unless it is for transport to places like the vet, in which case, get them into an air conditioned vehicle ASAP. If your house gets hot, please ensure that their crate is well ventilated if they have one, provide plenty of fresh, cool, clean water, keep your AC on if you have it, and even place frozen water bottles wrapped in paper towels in the crate if they have one. It may also help to offer plenty of safe fruits and veggies and ice cubes to ensure that they are staying hydrated. Watch for any signs of heatstroke and go to the vet immediately if you notice anything abnormal. Hope you and your pets stay nice and cool!

Fellow USA friends, keep you and your birbs safe during this extreme heat!

While birds do generally tolerate heat pretty well, high temps can be dangerous. Please do not take parrots outside unless it is for transport to places like the vet, in which case, get them into an air conditioned car ASAP. If your house gets hot, please ensure that the cage is well ventilated, provide plenty of fresh, cool, clean water, keep your AC on if you have it, and even place frozen water bottles wrapped in paper towels in the cage. It may also help to offer plenty of safe fruits and veggies to ensure that they are staying hydrated. Watch for any signs of heatstroke and go to the vet immediately if you notice anything abnormal. Hope you and your pets stay nice and cool!

How to stop sudden squeaking??? I’m at a loss!

I’ve had my Buffet Crampon clarinet for about 7 years, and I frequently clean it and take it in to get checked and repaired if needed. I have a Vandoren mouthpiece and use Vandoren 3.5 gray box reeds. This has all worked for me for quite a while, but recently higher notes have been squeaking for me, especially when playing them accented or marcato. I’ve tried many different undamaged reeds, old and new, and nothing is working. I’m covering all the keys efficiently, my reed and ligature are in the right position on the mouthpiece, my embouchure is good, and everything is of course assembled correctly. This has only started recently, and my band teacher is starting to doubt my ability because of it (I’m 1st chair and section leader, and I don’t want her to have to change her mind). If it persists, I will definitely be taking it in to get looked at, but I was wondering if anyone here had any suggestions first?

I’ve had three mice go into torpor this month. What am I doing wrong???

3 of my mice, Evie, Lumi, and Gaia, have gone into torpor this month. Evie fully recovered, and I’m trying to warm Lumi and Gaia up right now. My room is pretty warm anywhere from 68-75°F, and they always have tons of bedding to burrow in. What am I doing wrong??? I can’t keep having this happen!!!
