What is Hole in the Trachea in Cats? The trachea, also known as the windpipe, is a tube made of cartilage that allows air to pass from the throat to the larynx to the bronchi in the lungs. When the trachea becomes perforated via a small hole or tear in the cartilage, the air that normally passes into the lungs goes into the surrounding tissues. This creates pockets of air under the skin, in the mediastinum (the area in-between the lungs), around the heart, in the chest cavity and in the…

Poor Mondee! Well, staying indoors three days straight can do that to you. You see, Mondee is an outdoor type of dog. The moment he wakes up, he would go outside to do his business and play! Chasing cats is the favorite exercise of Mondee. (Thank goodness the cat escapes every time!) Aside from his cat chasing morning routine, I also take Mondee for long walks, and some play time in the park. Unfortunately, exercise time becomes a problem when the rain starts pouring. The only thing Mondee is…

Dolls and Barbies were not my kind of toy as a child. However hand me some stuffed animals and a doctor's kit, and I'd happily play veterinarian. I'd lose myself for hours, carefully wrapping paws and tails in toilet paper casts and bandages. Knowing this, is it any wonder that suffering from a lack of actual flesh and blood furballs (due to our landlord's rule of no pets) I have 'adopted' several plushies?

The ocelot is a sleek animal with one of the most gorgeous spotted coat of any animal in the world, also is twice the size of the average house cat. Its fur is golden over most of its body, with white or cream on the belly; marked over the background color are all sorts of patterns.
