Please help.there's something wrong with my rabbit?

just a few days ago, my rabbit ears started to fade away. Her ears use to be dark black, and a few days later her ear colors is fadding away into gray...she has spot of black and spot of gray. what is happending to her?
Answers:
1. Is he active?
2. Does he eat and drink normally?
3. Are his ears erect and alert?
4. Are his eyes bright and shiny (not dull)?
If you answer yes to all these questions, he is fine.It's just that his fur color is changing. My bunny used to turn brown in the summer.
Nothing! My rabbits ears and feet did the same thing, all its doing is converting a summer coat to winter. By nature rabbits had to change their fur color to blend in w/ the enviorment so they wouldn't get eatin. And well as summer changes to winter so must their fur. hope this helped.
I know you're going to hate me for saying this, but take her to the vet! People on petqna.com s aren't going to be able to diagnose your rabbit over the internet. I'm sorry that I couldn't help, but I know for sure that the vet can, so get a parent or friend to take you there as soon as you can.

Please help!my hammy is suffering from fur lost!is its life in danger?

no going to the vets advise.....i am desperate!
Answers:
Well if its old then that might be why. umm it might have mange. wich is bad cause you would have to put him down. =( i dont know what else to tell you sorry.
Most likely it has fleas or other bugs. not life threatening but certainly uncomfortable
old hamsters often suffer from hair loss

Please Help!?

I have a virtual pet website and I need to get pets on it so here is my question..
What is the software that Neopets Marapets and leekopets use to make there pets??
Answers:
What do you mean by "make" their pets? Do you mean how they draw the images for the pets?
If that's what you're talking about, then the program you want is Adobe Illustrator. It's not the easiest program to learn but it'll give you the results you want once you get it figured out.
You can download a free trial and purchase the software at Adobe's website: http://adobe.com
no idea, I think you need a disc

Im really nervous about a horseshow i have tomorrow as i am riding 2 very different pony's. I am riding one thats scared of fillers in a 2"3, and i have to really hold him back. After that class i have got a 2"9 class with a pony you have to kick on and ride into every fence. Help!! Any ideas on how to cope?

Answers:
the best thing to do is stop worrying lol, you know the horses r gonna pick up on it.
If you can get some bachs rescue remedy (its a herbal calmer) and take it as often as you need to (following printed instructions of course)
Secondly just give it your best and treat it like any other day (easier said then done i know) and be safe in the knowledge whatever happens it's all experience and you and the horses tried their best.
Good Luck Alex, i'll keep my fingers crossed.
PS don't push too hard in the warming up, just take it easy
i dont understand ur question its very confusing can u re-word it
just tell yourself that you can do it!! and dont worry.
Nerves are just part of it - we all suffer from them! Make sure you are well prepared and you have loads of time to get them ready. At least you know both the ponies and by this time tomorrow it will all be over. Try some positive thinking.eg " I am going to ride to the best of my ability and get pony 1 over all the fillers" and "I will warm up both the ponies so they are really listening to me and jumping well"
I find my nerves disappear when I get on my horse so I hope yours do too... don't look at and worry about other people.. often the ones that look fantastic in the warm-up have 3 refusals at the first fence!
Good luck and don't forget to enjoy yourself.
i will help you
Be positive. Clear your mind. Remember a horse can sense your fears and worries!!
Try Bach Flower Remedies (and read the series Heartland if you haven't already)
here are some which i think are suitable for you:
( i got the information of this website ages ago)
Fear Group
Cherry Plum
Rock Rose
Red Chestnut
Aspen
Mimulus
Uncertainty Group
Cerato
Gorse
Gentian
Hornbeam
Scleranthus
Wild Oat
Aspen - For unknown fears, vague fears and apprehension, perhaps unable to express fears of spirit/psychic/ strange places, etc. Anxious of coming events. Shakiness or fluttering tummy. Very useful for children with fears of dark, also agoraphobia. Aspen brings relief from these uneasy feelings.
Cerato - This essence helps those who lack faith in their own judgement and who look for the opinions of others when decisions are necessary. Unable to listen to their "inner voice" or nature. Cerato removes the blockage between the higher self and the mind, enabling them always to be guided correctly.
Cherry Plum - For fear of losing control of the mind/nervous breakdown. Snappy, on edge, wanting to scream or be violent, either to self or others. Saying things completely out of character, but unable to stop oneself. Irrational behaviour. Many women experience these negative traits during PMT. Characterised in the acute negative state by wide, staring eyes. Cherry Plum brings calmness, control and peace.
Gentian - For those lacking in faith, whether in themselves or the Creator. This lack bringing the mental state of becoming disappointed at setbacks. A known depression. "Doubting Thomas" type, or those never having found their spiritual being. Gentian brings the ability to see that all things are working to the right end thereby taking away the dejection.
Gorse - Deep hopelessness, sadness, often suffered by those with long term illness. If this negative state has taken root there may be dark rings under the eyes. As Gorse is taken so the darkness will change to light.
Hornbeam - For those taking a long time to "come round" when waking, still tired after a good nights sleep. Usually a kind of mental/boredom tiredness, the kind you often get after a day spent doing nothing, bringing on a feeling of procrastination. Do not confuse with Wild Rose. Hornbeam refreshes the mind.
Mimulus - For all known fears, fear of lifts, heights, spiders, water, etc., fear of anything material. Those needing this essence may be timid, shy, nervous, sensitive to crowds, loud noises, bright lights; they may stammer or blush easily. As Mimulus is taken, so they will become courageous and these negative states will fade away.
Red Chestnut - For those always fearing and worrying for others, always fearing the worst; if one of the family are late home "they must have had an accident". Often no fear for themselves. As Red Chestnut is taken these negative fears turn to positive optimism.
Rock Rose - Terror, keen fear or blind panic. Useful for those suffering from nightmares, panic attacks. Give to the helpers as well as the sufferer in extremely fearful situations, as strong negative vibrations spread to those around, hindering their work.
Scleranthus - Unable to choose between two things. Indecision. Weighing things up they will urn %26 ah, taking a long time to reach a decision. All of this has to do with balance, so in the negative state can cause stumbling, shakiness, vertigo, mood swings, etc. This essence brings an inner balance and a decisive character.
Wild Oat - For those unable to see their true path in life, wishing to find the vocation right for them. Each person is put on earth to serve a Divine purpose; something which will come easily and naturally to them and which they will enjoy doing above all else. This essence will help them to see the right path.

Please help!!? worms [2]?

plz help she was dewormed 3 months ago should i go again i dont get it...
Answers:
Yes, It is very easy for animals to get worms...especially during flea season..When they ingest an egg of a flea the egg opens inside the body and turns inot worms. If your animal is old enough they have a product called revolution..This you aply every 4 weeks will help with fleas ticks and worms..Better then having to keep going back to the vet...
Good luck

PLEASE HELP!! - How do i tell if my mare needs shoes?

I just bought a Danish WB mare about a month ago and she was shod only in front when we bought her. She threw a shoe about a week and a half ago and the farrier hasn't come to the barn yet. I hate bothering with shoes and would much rather her be barefoot. I do mostly dressage with her and a tiny bit of jumping. I ride her pretty much everyday. Can someone tell me if she should have shoes on or not? Thanks.
Answers:
Agreed, it's hard to tell if she needs shoes without seeing her in person.
A lost shoe is something of an emergency, you need to have your farrier out ASAP.
You can try her without shoes this time and just a good trim, and see how she does. A lot of times horses do just as well or better without shoes as they do with, especially since it sounds like you're only working her on softer surfaces.
Maybe have a FARRIER come out and look at her!! They would know!! Are you waiting for them to come for a routine call?? Call and get them out sooner! People here cannot see your horse!
my mare came shod but we wanted to go barefoot. do you do much roadwork, that wears feet. working on soft surfaces is fine for hooves. i would ask your farrier but a good indication if wether r not your mares feet are strong enough is if they crack often or are really soft. they could get worn too fast. there are boots you could get to protect soft feet with no shoes. my mums tb wore them when hacking as his hooves couldnt keep shoes. called boa boots...clip on!
