Blandfoder i automatiska mjölkningssystem
A totally mixed ration (TMR) is a mixture of all the necessary feed components for the cow. She will eat the exact same feed in every bite which will make the rumen pH more stable and always supply her with a constant proportion between roughage and concentrate. This will make it possible for the cow to eat more dry matter (DM) a day because the fibre requirements are fulfilled. If a part of the concentrate is given separated from the mixture it is called partly mixed rations (PMR) and is almost always used when using an automatic milking system (AMS). When using TMR and PMR it is important to have a high hygiene, be accurate when mixing the feed and to look after cows in a good and strict way.
The aim of this study was to document different farms with PMR in an AMS to see which routines they have and how they are managing their production.
Pasteurellainfektioner orsakade av kattbett
Kattbett är vanliga både inom veterinär- och humanmedicinen. De orsakar ofta djupa sår som är svåra att rengöra och lätt blir infekterade med bakterier från kattens munflora. Rodnad, svullnad, värme och ökad känslighet i området kring bettet är karakteristiska symptom som uppstår i snitt 12 timmar efter bettet. Komplikationer som ses i samband med kattbett är huvudsakligen abscessbildning och tenosynovit, men även allvarligare komplikationer som septisk artrit, osteomyelit, bakteremi och meningit förekommer. Risken för komplikationer ökar om bettet sker över leder, senor eller ben vilket ofta är fallet när människor blir bitna, då händer och armar är de vanligaste lokalisationerna för kattbett.
Leder kastrering av hanhundar till bättre djurvälfärd?
Castration of dogs holds many reasons and opinions, therefore methods, traditions and rea-sons vary. The approaches have during time changed from mostly surgical castrations to also including hormonal treatments. Castration is used to control the dog's reproductive abilities, for medical reasons and to possibly rectify problems of behavioral nature. How common a particular method of castration is in a country is highly dependent on the country's traditions. In Sweden it is most common with castration for medical reasons, such as possible elimina-tion of diseases, for example, benign colorectal tumors.
Injektion till katt ? injektionsassocierad smärta samt injektioner i praktiken
Intramuscular injections to cats can generate strong reactions in some individuals while reactions of the same extent, according to the author, not always are recognized when using the subcutaneous route. The reactions are probably caused by fear, stress and/or pain.
When the injection can generate pain one has to take that into account, which can be a limitation in treatment. It is well known that injections generate pain, but knowledge about the cause and processes of the injection-associated pain is limited. This is mainly due to the difficulty in finding objects to study pain on, high cost of use of laboratory animals and difficulty to obtain objective measurements. Although there is evidence that there may be a local muscle injury by intramuscular injection, it is not always that the extent of damage is related to the pain experienced.
Facts about the causes of injection-associated pain have been studied in a literature review.
Krubbitning hos häst på olika strömaterial :
By limiting our horse?s freedom of movement, we restrict their opportunity to forage, which is one of their most important needs. If their need of forage is not fulfilled it can lead to frustration, which might manifest itself in abnormal behaviour, like the oral stereotypies for example crib-biting. It is a held belief that the horse swallows air while crib-biting, which they don?t, and that swallowed air causes colic, and the belief that other horses can copy the behaviour, leads to the use of many methods to prevent the behaviour.
