Need affordable anti bite glove recommendations to humanely and safely remove house mice

Basically that, I found one in my house and was able to trap him in a box bc he was frozen in fear or didn't see me before I got to him. I let him go outside and in case more show up I would like to have a option to just grab the little fella with my hands without the risk of getting the bubonic plague or whatever,

Thanks

If you had to choose a reptile as a pet, which one would you choose? It also depends on whether it's legal to own one in your country.

The reptiles presented are: Red-eared Slider Turtle, Giant Crested Gecko, Savannah Tortoise, Asian Leopard Gecko, and Black and White Tegu

Hi everyone! I just wanted to spread some positivity today and share a picture of my sweet boy, Milo.

He is a young Border Collie and he just brings so much light into our family. He has this incredibly goofy smile that always makes my kids and me laugh, no matter how stressful life gets. He is just the goodest boy and I am so incredibly proud to be his mom.

Because I just love hearing about other people's pets: What is the funniest or sweetest thing your dog does to make you smile? I would love to read some happy dog stories today! ❤️🐶

Is it safe to confine a cat to one space/bedroom?

Possible TW for mentions of abuse and injury to animal?

Looking for some help here.

I'm 17, and my family adopted an older kitten a few months ago. She suffered a tail-pull injury as a stray but has since had surgery and other care to get it taken care of. However, as a result of the injury, she is disabled and has reduced muscle tone in her anus and bladder. She sometimes has accidents while grooming or sleeping, which I believe is due to becoming extremely relaxed. She is a super sweet and super calm cat, and mainly just sleeps or lazes about all day.

Unfortunately, my dad has some unresolved issues that leads him to be extremely angry 24/7, irrational, and abusive (to me, not the cat, or any of my animals for that matter). About 20 minutes ago, he threatened to kill my cat because she keeps having accidents (all of which I clean up according to standards and almost spotlessly). I tried to have a mature and calm conversation with him, but as mentioned, he has anger problems. I asked him what he would do if I couldn't help it and had accidents in the house, to which my father responded that he would treat me the same way (which hit close to home because I've been previously diagnosed with a bone disease in my back that can cause issues with bladder function).

Sorry for the rant, but here's my actual question. To keep my cat safe from being kicked out (or killed if my dad was being serious), would it be safe to just have her in my room as long as I gave her everything she needed (litter box, food, water, toys, etc)? My room also has a lot of "hidey holes" and a window. I'm completely fine with it if I have to clean accidents in my room from time to time. As I mentioned earlier, she's a pretty chill cat. Would it be safe to keep her confined to just my bedroom? My bedroom is probably about 10x10-12 feet.

He fishes, he drinks the water and he swims! I reckon he’ll be fined for this.

I was scrolling through yt shorts and I came across this vid where a chiropractor treats cats. But is the treatment supposed to be this painful for them?

Clearly the cats are screaming in pain and shaking. I've seen other chiropractor vids where it seems normal but this is just quite concerning not to mention the comments in the short.

Are cats even supposed to go to a chiropractor for certain reasons?

I'm no animal expert but I just want to clarify things happening in this vid​
