The eye wash
The mucous membranes have a pink tint, if red will indicate inflammation.
The eyes can be cleaned with saline solution (Ringer Lactate better because it stings so much) and a gasita.
Agree to change the gauze to clean each eye. We can also clean water thyme or chamomile (especially if there is any infection).
This can be done once a week.

Have a house rabbit
For most people the word rabbit, meaning the image of a creature with a gentle eyes and a nose that is constantly moving. However, the fact is that it has gone from being a farm animal that was intended purely for consumption to become a member of the family in many households worldwide.
There is a common belief that rabbits and hares are animals afraid. In its natural range, this behavior is determined by the need for survival, these animals are the main target of many predators such as wolves, eagles, foxes and weasels, so keep alert attitude is your best weapon.
Thus, any threat, this animal has only two choices: to flee or duck pretending to be dead. At home, they behave similarly. If you notice loud noises or high rabbit will flatten against the floor, ears back, eyes wide open, and you shake your body. Have a house rabbit

In her life pet, these animals consider their cage or shelter sites most frequently, territories will also be perfectly defined by the animal. Although calm, clashes are not uncommon with conspecifics to defend their space.
Building a Turtle
We begin by commenting that the site that we will prepare a aquaterrariums not exactly, but is rather of a turtle. Acquired in any normal retail outlet the following:
1. Turtle. Usually glass containers (there are also PVC that are very undesirable), without cover, cut across from the rear to front up to half of the height, which contains an “island” may well be artificial to plastic or artificial turf. Be purchased as large as we can in accordance with our possibilities (space at home, in the room, you do have a balcony or terrace, etc.)
2. Termocalentador. While not recommending any professional use since the turtles might break them, the fact that these animals are still young at the time of purchase and when you can grow well protected (with a grid, for example) strongly recommend their use since they are more easily accessible, cheap and versatile on the market. The powers are different and like the turtle will look liters of water to “warm up” to know that power purchase. For just one example: I use a 25v for termocalentador of 22l capacity of turtle (the turtle actually only contains about 6-7 liters of water.) This element is essential for optimal care of our / as turtle / as, because it is tropical animals (at least in most species and especially the usual commercially available.) Building a Turtle
3. Filter. They are of two types, internal or external (cascade). My recommendation is to install an external filter such as water must be pumped from the turtle to the filter itself and is then returned through a pipe hole on top that is visibly improved oxygenation. If you can not, the installation of an internal filter is also a feasible solution for at this stage, all the internal filters are supplied with a system that generates “bubbles” (for good oxygenation of the water.)

Buy a Duck
Ducks can be a good companion to the house. No purchase is very common because it requires minimum care differently than, say, dogs.

Caring for Dogs Teeth
The mouth is an area where they accumulate a lot of impurities and foreign bodies in dogs. This can cause diseases, so you have to take care of the dental health of our pets. 4 out of 5 dogs have dental disease.
One of the keys is to prevent scale formation. To do this we can help with hygienic toys that dogs play while brushing their teeth. We also need to wash our teeth, but this task is more complicated but depends on the character of our friend.

It is therefore important to delineate the areas to relieve themselves and play, avoiding risks such as electrical cords or other.
