Pets - 5 July 2006

I have never owned one before but I would love one, I have 3 cats and was wondering If the cats would attack it if it was full grown.
Are they expencive to own?
I don't have a fence around my yard will that matter?, will it try to run away?
What can I feed it apart from hay?
Please give all the info possable thank you.

My kitten is a little over 4 months old. I've tried the little spray bottle squirting him (so much sometimes it looks like I hosed him down!) when I don't want him scratching something or whatever, its just not working all the time because right after he does something, he does the same axact thing 10 minutes later! I know that cats are not as trainable as dogs, however I know its possible... right? I just want to know is there a way to keep him from scratching things (and yes I have a scratching post for him, he refuses to sometimes use) or jumping up on the kitchen counter and/or other things that get him into trouble. The water thing just isn't working and I don't want to smack him so much he turns out to be so timid he won't be playful like he is now. I asked my Vet and he suggested thumping him on the ear, but that just makes him mad LOL and he wants to scratch. SOooo its like now what?! IF you can help me PLEASE do... any HELPFUL suggestions wouldn't be nice.

Well, im going on vacation in 2 days, and i just heard news that my dog will be going through euthanization within a few days of me getting back... talk about a horrible way to ruin a vacation.

anyway, the main thing thats bugging me (besides obviously the eminent loss) is: is it right?

does it fall under "though shall not kill"? or "thou shalt have mercy"?


Thanks

I am trying to find a mate for our male cocker. His mate and his daughter we're killed a while back and lately it seems like he is suffering with depression. Would like a older female (vs a puppy). Am willing to travel within abt a 300 mile radius.

I'm looking to lease a Morgan horse in Missouri for riding and local shows. Nothing big, just a step higher from my mare who can't be ridden for awhile. I can't find any online through Dreamhorse, Horsetopia, and Equine.com for leasing, only buying. The farrier/vet doesn't know of anyone, neither do tack shops. All I want to do is lease one, not buy. Any suggestions?

Any help is appreciated.

Lets face it, pets are just domesticated wild animals. They cause trouble to owners for many reasons, pet owners have at least 1 of these problems if not all....1)they stink up the house...2)they tear clothes/ furniture apart.....3)they need constant supervision....4)they incurr medical expenses.....5)you need to dish out thousands of dollars for their food/accessories....6)they make noises at the weirdest hours....7)they will defecate, vomit, and urinate where they shouldn't....8)they make guests feel uneasy.....9)they live short lives, so they will die and break your heart everytime......10)they'll make a mess, then you have to clean up after them.....11) you have to feed them and walk them which is like a full time job.....there are tons of other reasons why pets should be in the wild. I would give up their friendship over all the negative things they bring on to a family.

I recently bought a 8 week old kitten and I woke up this afternoon to see her limping. One of her back legs wasn't touching the floor and I went over to her and gently squeezed it to try and feel where the exact spot was, that is causing her pain. She meowed when I found it and she would not let me help her. She has just been laying in the corner sleeping and hasn't played or run around the house. She will only get up to eat. I can't tell if her leg is broken or just sprained and I don't have the money to take her to a vet. Can anyone help me out on this?

We have moved home and just found out that the pond close to our back door has breeding frogs in it and been told that we could have about 100 frogs around the house very shortly. Can any advise how to remove them for now and forever from the pond?

When reoprting somone for not taking care of their pets (they had gone through a number of animals all of which died at an early age due to neglect) I was made to feel I was in the wrong and wasting the RSPCA's time.

Okay, so like in December I might get a pomeranian if my grades are good first semester. And I was wondering to people who have pomeranians-- Do they shed a lot? And any other things about them would be helpful to know beforehand..

My father died and I had to place my mother in a home because I cannot physically care for her due to my health. I was left with all these animals and I must move. I cannot afford all of them. Only one belongs to me, but I've been caring for them and love them all! I find getting homes for them has been hard and emotionally painful, but I don't believe you should keep an animal if you cannot afford to take them to a vet when they're sick.

The oldest dog is in pain with her hip. My aunt told me to have her put to sleep. I haven't been able to find a home for her and where I may move will be cold. I haven't the heart to put her to sleep but I'm in a position where I cannot keep her because I haven't even figured out where I’m going to stay.

If you don't like animals, Please do not answer this.

My boyfriend and I have a Pekapoo that is a little over a year old. We decided when he was a puppy not to get him fixed because we didn't think it was necessary since he would not be in contact with other dogs who could reproduce. We have been having a problem with taking him to other houses because he will pee on furniture. This is our first dog and we have no idea what to do. My boyfriend's parents told us to get him fixed, but will that solve the problem? I don't want to spend money on an operation if it's not going to fix anything.
