Krusty Is With Me Once Again:)
Wednesday, February 17, 2010
Help!
I need some help with a project I am working on. Tell your friends and family and spread the word. I am trying to put outdoor animals back in their habitat. This is the form I sent to the petstores around me that sell animals.
Dear______________,
I believe that it is wrong to trap wild animals. They should not be in captivity. Yes it is true I have hermit crabs and they belong outside. I will NOT be getting anymore. Some animals can deal with being in captivity because their habitat is easier to make and they are more sedentary, such guinea pigs.
This is a list of animals that should not be in captivity, you will notice a lot of them....
- hermit crabs
- crawdada
- iguanas
- snakes
- birds
- fish
- snails
- ferrets
- dragons
- lizards
- chameleon
- uromastyx
- tortoise
- turtle
- frog
- toad
- gecko
- anoles
- chinchilla
Think about if you were that animal and you were being shipped from your habitat, not being treated right by some humans.
Plus you can still make money off cute little rodents, cats and dogs. But before you turn me down, please all I ask is that you think about it. And maybe even not all those animals, just a few.
From_______________
I would love hear back.....
Also know that I am not trying to be mean.
Thanks!
That is my form I was talking about obviously. If you do write to your local pet stores, take out the personal stuff I said (like about my hermit crabs) and if you have any of the animals on that list, then add that to your sentence. Just an idea. Thanks!

Pictures +9
The Magic Appearing Guinea Pig
I said, "Red's already out. She's behind the closet."
She said, "No...she's in her cage. Look!"
I still said, "No she's noooooot. That couldn't be possible!"
I looked and there she was--eating some hay! I couldn't believe it. The cage was bent a little because it's the type you have to put together. But that's the amazing appearing guinea pig! The end!

Pictures.. finally!
This is Oreo. I just thought that was a cute picture of her trying to get out of the cage.
Krusty the Crab (below)--you've heard about him so you know the rest.
Archie (right). Can you find the hidden animal? It's Red hiding in the shirt sleeve!
K.C. (right): You've heard about her too, so you know the rest like I said about Krusty.

There is a local dog-o-mat and you get to wash the dogs yourself, but it not much of a hassle as long as your dog stays under control. You get help if you need it. Max stinks really bad. My mom and I want to take him there, but we just haven't had the time yet.
Today, January 27, my SUPER-babysitter, Christie, came over (www.dailyphotosbychristie.blogspot.com). She's doing a "Project 365" project where she posts photos every day for a year. But back to what I was saying. I came home from school and she was sitting on the couch. Max was right there next to her and from about a couple squares of the sidewalk away, he noticed me. He wasn't exactly quite looking out the window; his head was down. We started playing "Would you rather?" and all of a sudden he started climbing up on Christie--putting his paws on her shoulders kind of licking her but not really touching her face. She got him off, but he went right back. It was very funny. He started growling at the dogs across the street. I had enough, so we came in here (office) typing my blog entry. That's pretty much it!
Sincerely,

PLEASE HELP!
I just got an e-mail from the human society, and they have been working on a BIG case.
This dog named Niko was rescued 149 days ago and needs your help.
I'm sad to say that I can't get the pictures on this entry but if you want them, reply on comments and leave me your e-mail and I will send them to you. They are not horrific pictures, only almost all the furrs gone, and its a picture from the back so nothing intolerable.
It also shows a after picture and he looks like nothing had ever happened. you could not even tell he is 14!
The human society has spent thousands of dollars to get him back to health.
There is a hearing on Feb. 4th. I need you to write the judge, and tell him in very polite way that, animal cruelty is a very serious crime, and that, that dog is a living, breathing, creature, and that his treatment was unacceptable. his owner should have been held accountable and he deserves a new family now.
Like i said make sure to put that his care cost thousands of dollars and that the owner should of paid that.
Please help me out with this.
Here is his address:
Judge Mike Gerou
35th District Court
660 Plymouth Road
Plymouth MI
Thanks!

crab emergency!
Last night i had a crab emergency!
When your crab cage starts to smell fishy (keep in mind it could be the food) it most of the times means your little Buddy has passed!:(
Every time that happened to me my little fella passed.
I had not cleaned my crab cage in a REALLY long time and i mean really!
I bent my head down and smelled the cage and it smelled like my fella passed. We had to go and take a friend to a airport and i was almost hysterical!
I came back home and my room stunk. I decided weather or not my crab had passed on, the cage needed a clean. So i made my mom do the dirty work. Every time my crabs had died i was the one to find out first.
I remember one time I came home from school and Krusty was not moving. My mom told me she think hes not alive any more, but later on i proved her wrong.
Any way back to what I was saying.
I did not want to deal with a dead crab even though I love fuzzwuzz dearly. ( I knew it was not Eugene because i saw him two nights before.)
My crabs LOVE to hide under the water dish like i said, and that was the first thing to come out of the cage. Right as the dish came out the whole thing stopped stinking!
I WAS FILLED WITH JOY! I took my crabs out, put them in a box and cleaned the cage.
I never though I was going to see Fuzzy ever again.
Remember don't freak out right away if something like this happens. Clean the cage check to see if they are missing a leg (legs grow back) before you freak out.
THANKS,

Maximillan
Max is full grown. He is six years old. Very playful and HYPER. The reason Max is so very strong is because his owner, Archie, feeds him raw meat. If you think about it, in the wild they wouldn't be finding dog food. They would be finding raw meat including the juice and skin and maybe a few bones. But mostly just meat. Here's a list of the foods Max gets a lot:
- Liver (but he doesn't eat it a lot--only if he is really hungry)
- Burger
- Little bit of egg
- Steak
- Cooked chicken from dinner
- stock and much more!
And those are mainly the things that he eats. If you want to know more about that, just leave a comment on my blog and I will reply to it so just check back in. I will update you almost every day with a few short entries about how my day is going with Max and my other animals. It's kind of like a diary, but about animals. I will only be doing that until Max leaves. I will post entries every other day or so. That's it for now!

Take a Break from Crabs
THE BIGBOY STORY
Monday, January 18, 2010
MY ANIMALS
My crabs' names are Eugene and Fuzzwuzz. I got Eugene from the Humane Society and got my picture on the website (http://www.hshv.org/ -- and you can find me in the Kids' Corner with the headline, "Sarah Adopts Steve McQueen"). I got Fuzzwuzz from your regular pet store (Petsmart) and I have had six crabs total in my life. Their names were Krusty (here's a picture of his shell), Coral (was very, very small), KC, and Big Boy--he was the size of a baseball. Later in my blog I will show you the story I wrote about him. Krusty and Coral were my first two crabs, and about a week later I got KC. Then I got Eugene, then Fuzzwuzz and Big Boy. When I brought Fuzzwuzz home, he drank off the sponge for about literally two hours and Krusty was getting very upset because that was his place. He would sleep next to the sponge because he was sometimes dehydrated.
Krusty, KC, Big Boy, and Coral are dead now. KC was the first to go, then Coral, then Krusty. Krusty was my favorite. He was very special. Then Big Boy. KC died of a shell disease that when you don't boil the hermit crab shells if another crab has already been in it, they can get a disease from the other crab. Coral liked to crawl under the water dish and I think was crushed or she had a disease where her legs fell off. Krusty was sick for awhile, but made it through most of it, got better, and got sick again and died when he was molting his skin. Big Boy died because the temperature was changing from different rooms and that makes their legs fall off. They can normally regenerate their legs, but he was very sick.
I take very good care of my crabs. I have a big aquarium, coconut bark (sand makes them sick), and give them socializing time and let them outside. None of my crabs ever die without at least going out and playing in the grass once. Do not do this if you have pesticides on your lawn. I always make sure they have water and food. Krusty used to eat some of the fat that my mom made out of her stocks and it was very good for them because they are scavengers and are not very picky.
A girl I know has two crabs named Herman and Holly, and I helped her get an aquarium, coconut bark, and everything you need for crabs to be healthy because her crabs were 1) their legs were getting chipped and looked horrible and 2) Herman couldn't fit in his shell and right as we went and got him a new shell he changed right, and I mean RIGHT away.
I have learned through all of my experiences with my crabs dying how to take care of them and I have read a lot more and learned a lot more. These are some of the things you need if you have crabs. You can find all these things in your local pet store. (These are land crabs I'm talking about). A sponge for them to drink off--There's a picture of one and something else called a cuttle bone (When you give it to them break it up into tiny pieces.) hat gives them a lot of nutrients and there is also a picture of one. Make sure you don't put any tap water in the sponge--it should be good-quality water or they will get sick and die because there are chemicals in the water, a big aquarium (but it doesn't have to be really big), FISH food (don't ever get hermit crab food) called Top Fin Small Freeze Dried Medley and cubic worms also by Top Fin. The worms are not alive, obviously. A heater, but it can't go on the bottom because they will fry--it should go on the side. And a water dish that has two holders, one for water and two for food. It is okay to mix the cubic worms and medley together. Make sure they also have tons of color in their diet like apples, oranges, papaya, coconut, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, carrots, and leafy greens. If you pick up some grass from outside (no pesticides), my crabs love to burrow in it and the coconut bark. Don't be alarmed if you don't find them. Keep in mind they won't always eat the same things, and if they don't eat, don't be alarmed either. Never dig them up because it could disturb them and make them sick for some reason. They also need to have some good meat and it has to be grass-fed and organic. Never raw. Sometimes it can even be fish. The can eat anything that doesn't have spices or preservatives, but BE CAREFUL.
If you have any questions or want more information on how to care for your crabs, please feel free to leave a comment and I will answer it as soon as possible. I also know a lot about other animals, so just ask me and I can help you. I am an expert about dogs and know how to treat cancer and how to make them feel better.
Soon I will post more pictures of my crabs. My next entry will be the Big Boy story that I wrote! It took me a really long time to edit!
