Thread: Animal facts!!!

    Here's a fact, I already knew it but I copied this from another site with more detail lol. ''Pigeon eyesight is excellent. Like humans, pigeons can see color, but they also can see ultraviolet light--part of the light spectrum that humans can't see. Pigeons are sometimes used in human search-and-rescue missions because of their exceptional vision.'' so if you want a pet with good eye sight go for a pigeon!

    Mosaics meaning "Beware the Dog" would be found on doorsteps in ancient Roman cities.

    There are six types of Dachshund.

    The Great Dane is the national dog of Germany.

    Siberian Huskies have been used to herd reindeer in Siberia for 3000 years

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    Cats can NOT walk on bubbles from bubble bath.

    Would someone PLEASE inform my Sparkle of this? She is 11 years old and has been trying, unsuccessfully, since I adopted her when she was 4 months old.

    Guinea pigs cannot make their own vitamin C and have to be given a supplement or be fed foods high in vit. C.

    Guinea pigs will eat the material they chew on unlike hamsters who chew and spit.

    Cats are basically lactose intollerant.

    8 cats can be trained to open the bathroom door when they shut themselves in there while playing (my door doesn't actually latch though).

    (hopefully I'm not repeating this...)

    On the opposite side of that...

    Dogs produce their own vitamin C and can overdose on it if given the improper supplements.
