My kitten is about 5-6 weeks old. She drinks water, eats hard food, but I also give her a tray of kitten milk. The carton says it can be used as a supplement for older cats too... should I take the milk away?

To me a puppy mill is a 'breeder' that abuses or leaves their stock in filth. Most Commercial breeders do not fall into this catagory and take good care of their breeding stock.

If there were no commercial or backyard breeders, where ever would the pet buying public get their purebred puppies? Show breeders cannot possibly supply the demand for PB puppies. If laws make breeding extremely hard, they will get their puppies somewhere. One has only to look at the terrible anti-breeder laws in California to see. Make breeding hard and then wonder why they are dealing with sickly Mexican puppies being smuggled in.
Better a backyard or commercial breeder than a very questionable source in a country where abuse laws are not enforced, if they exist at all.

And no, not everyone wants a crossbreed from a shelter, and most are crosses. Shelter dogs are mostly from owner retention problems, and people letting their dogs roam and breed indiscriminately, not purebred breeders.

i know vegans are all for protection and respect of all animals, but i was wondering, can vegans have pets or does that go against what they believe? like can they have a dog that they love to play with, feed well, and make sure it has safe accomodations to move around in, like not just a small cage. cuz it seems to me its ok to have an animal as a pet for enjoyment, but still make sure it is well off. im not vegan btw, i have friends that are, and i was just curious about this

He's only a yr old and has been going to the box with no problem until recently. I don't want to give him up, but unless I can fix this problem I might have to.

I am putting this under pets because this is where I answer the biggest majority of my questions.
I sometimes go back and edit a comment I have made on an answer.
I was wondering if the edited portion is sent as a email to the person that asked the question, letting them know?
I just wanted to make sure if I have to make a correction on an answer, the person will get the updated version.
