We have a 16 year old calico who has recently (read past 3 months) taken up peeing on the carpets in the childrens play room and bed rooms. We really can't live with my small children (3 & 4) playing and living with cat pee everywhere. We did take her to the vet and she does have a mild thyroid problem that may be the reason why the behavior started. We could treat the thyroid problem (not cheap btw) but my husband has doubts about her changing her behavior now that she has gotten used to going on the carpet. We love her dearly, especially the kids, but we cant live with her turning our house into a toilet. We dont have anyone else who could take her; is simply time to say good bye? Other than the peeing she is a plesant cat and in fairly good shape for her age.

this is an honest question. By nature dogs love eating bones even without being taught. Why is that?

My sister/roommate recently adopted two kittens and brought them to our two-bedroom condominium. Although she initially promised to keep them in her bedroom (I'm allergic & hate cat hair on my clothes), she relocated them to the front room and put the litter box in our kitchen. The box is uncovered, the cats trail litter (and small bits of feces, actually, that I've cleaned up) across the floor, and she cleans it out only every couple days. The odor alone is horrible, but I can't imagine having the litter box (covered or not) anywhere near our food can possibly be healthy.

Thoughts?

I am trying to get a baby darf rabbit so I can raise it to be a 4-H rabbit I know it sounds mean but I've raised rabbits for a long time but from what I read you need a pure-bread for 4-H. If you are in 4-H do you need a pure-bread with papers or what do you need? Does it have to be a pure-bread? How much do they cost? Please help.

I recently aqquired 2 zebra finches and then bought 2 more for them.I have found eggs in one basket and they were sitting on them all the time as they were supposed to.The other pair lay eggs and leave them which I remove and throw away.My ? is after I cleaned the cage the pair that were sitting stopped sitting on them and then she laid more eggs on top of the ones that were already there.Why did she do this and to what extent does cleaning the cage or going near them have to do with her not sitting on them any more?Is this normal to continue to lay eggs on top old eggs?Not sure if I should keep removing the egs or not.

My German Shepherd suddenly started acting like he's spooked by something. It started last night while he was asleep by the front door. Suddenly he jumped up, ran into the next room, and kept looking over his shoulder like something was there. Today, he's wimpering and acting spooked again. What could have happened?

I am looking for the the name of that wand-like tool that you can use to walk around the yard and detect a break in the underground wire of an invisible dog fence. It works much like a metal detector only it emits a signal over the underground wire but when it comes to a break in the wire, the signal stops. How it knows this, I'm clueless...all I know is I want one but I can't get one if I don't know the name. Do you?

Is it okay to give dogs a little beer? They love it so much.

Or maybe I'll just teach him to get me one from the fridge...
