My cat is quite old and unable to clean himself as well as he used to. Can I use baby wipes to clean him, or pet wipes only? There are no pet stores close to me, so its just easier to get baby wipes, but I'm not sure if thats in any way harmful to a cat? Thanks.

My rat just developed a kinda large lump right behind her arm (its about the size of a ping pong ball i'd say) is there any possibility that its anything OTHER than cancer? Has anything like this every happened to your pets? What do you think her chances might be?

They have a small kitten who has been attacked by a dog. Now, this little guy is parylized from the waist down. He needs dipers on, and drags his back feet completly...just walks with his front paws. We've looked all over the internet for wheelchairs for pets. They are all huge, and very expensive. We've even searched e-bay...nothing. I'm thinking there must be a way to make a small skateboard type thing, and velcro this aperatus around his back/waist. BUT, was wondering if anyone knew how exactly...I can think of things, but when it comes to actually developing it, I'm lost. Can anyone help, OR ask someone who may have faced this? I was even thinking of looking in TOY stores for a skateboard his size. He'ssamll now, but will grow. If you get any ideas, please contact me through my website at www.johnevers. net
He's a very loving thing, and not in pain. He just needs help. hanks

is it better to get an young/adult adopted dog OR a puppy and then you are more "hot off the pan" because the pup does not really have a background. other people say its better to adopt a adult/young dog from the animal shelter because 1- your adopting one and 2- you can see how the dogs acts because its older...explain your answer please!

Help! We have a 1 yr old Border Collie, when she was young she began to growl and bite at the Vacuum cleaner, then this summer she started doing the same to the Lawn mower! Yesterday, she chewed up the hoses to the pool pump! We have always corrected her when she did something like this, but she continues to attack machinery. I began putting her in her crate to keep her away while I vacuumed or we ran the mower. She sit's and there and barks her fool head off! As for the pool hoses she ruined them and we had to buy new. Hubby was none to pleased! Pump could have burned up! I can't keep her locked up all the time while the pool is running! She is a Border Collie after all and needs to run and play! Anyone know how to stop this kind of behavior?

Supposedly, we have giardia at our house. We have lived there 8 months and had 2 puupies get sick in Feb. and one died. Then we had 2 more puppies become sick in June and one of them died. They all showed signs of diarehha but would eat and drink and then vomit.The first puppy that survived I took all food and water away for about 4 or 5 days and then he begin to show improvement. The puppy that died in Feb. was sick 2 days and died. The puppies that became sick in June were never taken off food or water but the puppy that died had also chewed and swallowed an electric cord before he got sick. The puppy that survived was put on fluids and kept confined to a crate. I need to know if either of these could have been giardia.

OK,,, a week ago I found a little puppy. My family and I were out walking in the woods searching for Arrowheads (Indian artifacts). We came upon a mother dog and her puppies. We were able to find home for 5 and I have kept the runt. I have named the mother "Lady"
The puppy is a boy and he is black with a little white on his chest he also has a natural bob tail.
I was wanting some kind of Indian name,, it would really mean something b/c of what we were doing when we found him.
Any unique suggestions?

Every morning between 3:00 and 5:00AM, they meow very loudly, run around my apartment, and crash into my bedroom door ... repeatedly. They do not stop until I get up and feed them. Any suggestions?

What type of dog? How old is the dog? What happened to make the child get bit? Was this the first time the dog has bitten? Most dogs don't like to be pulled on, laid on ect. You should try training the child not to do what he/she did to make the dog bite. Or if the dog bit out of meaness you need to put it down. Every dog should be allowed 1 provoked bite.

I don't understand why people ask questions, and then not read or review the responses they get. It's very annoying.
