Small white worms about the size of a grain of rice are probably tapeworm segments. They are contracted from swallowing fleas or other infected intermediate hosts and can be eliminated with medication obtained from your veterinarian. There are other intestinal parasites that your pet may have that can only be detected with a laboratory test. Your pet should be tested yearly by bringing in a stool specimen during its physical examination.

A little vomiting or diarrhea here and there seems to be pretty standard for pet dogs and cats. After all, cats groom themselves and get hairballs. Dogs eat all sorts of ridiculous things they aren't supposed to. Still, many owners notice that their pets seem to have vomiting or diarrhea a bit more often than it seems they should.

Many women are worried about this when the time comes. The best advice is to try not to worry and to allow nature to take its course. One often does not have a bowel movement for a day or two after giving birth and this usually gives you a chance to recover. Make sure that you eat lots of fresh fruit and vegetables and especially that you drink plenty of water to prevent constipation and encourage a soft stool.

No. You can comfortably keep the DivaCup in when you urinate or have a bowel movement just as you can a tampon.

Many people are under the impression that they only need to have one bowel movement a week or less. Bowel disease, constipation, colon cancer, and stomach pain are all disorders that are leading to what I call the "Silent Killer in America." Colon health and colon problems are the most over-looked health problems in today's society.

Good question. When we were coming up with a name for this monster at the very first meeting at Max Fish in late August of 2001 the question was raised what would we call ourselves. K. Thor Jensen said it should be called some sort of movement, like the Dadaist movement, or underground comics movement, etc. So He slurs, "What kind of movemenat should we be?" and I wheezed, "A Bowel Movement." And thus the name was born.

Small white worms about the size of a grain of rice in length are tapeworm segments. They come from swallowing fleas or from eating mice. There are tablets you can purchase from your veterinarian to eradicate tapeworms. There are NO products in the pet stores or grocery stores to kill tapeworms. Also, in order to keep them away, you should practice good flea control.

I didn't realize that I would be constipated from the surgery and pain meds until it actually happened. No one warned me. I don't remember exactly how many days it was, but it was somewhere around 5-8 days.

A normal bowel movement is soft and unformed. It should break apart when it hits the water - or at least when flushed. This is not to be confused with diarrhea, which is characterized by watery consistency and, sometimes, mucus.

They are harmless Planaria worms, although usually found in dirtier tanks so maybe you should do a gravel vacuum more often and reduce the amount you are feeding.

Most intestinal parasites can be diagnosed through a physical examination and the microscopic analysis of your pet’s feces. Your veterinarian can conduct the examination and fecal tests to determine if your pet has worms and then prescribe the appropriate treatment or preventive program.

Choking is a hazard for people and pets. Cutting raw meaty bones or carcasses into small pieces increases the hazard. Pets attempt to swallow the pieces without adequate chewing. Be sure to feed carcasses whole and raw meaty bones in large pieces.

A "small pet" is more or less your own personal Warcraft critter. When your small pet is summoned, it will follow your character throughout the game world. Small pets are also known as vanity pets, critter pets, non-combat pets, and minipets. All of these terms are used interchangeably.
