I noticed a crusty, light yellow thing at the edge of his right ear. Sometimes he scratches it like crazy. I tried applying Hydrocortisone cream but it still persists. A few weeks ago, I noticed that the back of this ear was pinkish, and a little sore. Some hairs were also missing. Is it fungal? Or parasitic (mange)?

My tiny kitten went into labour last night, when we found her she had already had two kittens, one was dead, & the other was alive but passed on this afternoon, her labour has stopped, BUT she definitely has two or three more in there, & they are not moving around, when i talked to the vet today he said it is going to cost me $ 165 to have her looked at, then its going to cost me around $ 1000 to have her operated on. As a mother of 2 i do not have this kind of cash, but she is family and i cannot just let her go,IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW AND IF I CAN INDUCE LABOUR please let me know ASAP so i can save our kitty ! the vet said theres no hope for the kittens if theres no movement, but if i can induce somehow at least theres a chance to save her from infection. I am BEYOND devastated about her kittens but cannot bear to stand the thought of voluntarily putting her down due to money shortage ! She is just over a year ! Please help my cat stay a part of our family !

At dinner time we accidentally gave our basset hound twice her regular dose of metoclopramide and thyrosin. She is having trouble walking. It hasn't affected her stomach. Will it be ok just to let her sleep this off?Serious answers only please!!

A few weeks ago, i found a lump on my golden labrador foot,
It gradually got bigger so on Tuesday i took her to the vets.
The vet said he didnt like the look of the lump, so it will have to come off!
Thing is, Gypsy (my dog) was 8 in May and she is quite overweight, so obviously there is more of a risk with regards the anaesthetic.
Do i take her down, let her have the operation with all the risks or should i speak to the vet before shes due to have the operation, and ask him to be honest with me? Either way im scared of the thought of losing her and dont know what to do for the best.

My cat Mia, who was 5, was euthanized on May 6. She became very sick very suddenly. Vet suspected it was a uterine infection since she wasn't spayed, but we never got a definitive diagnosis because we opted not to do the exploratory surgery. Two weeks after, my husband brings home a kitten he got from his sister. I told him beforehand I probably would never want one again. But Rambo's here now. I don't really feel connected to him. I miss Mia terribly and I want her back. Rambo was neutered today, and I feel very bad I didn't spay Mia. I feel like I should have treated her as well because I surely loved her more. I feel bad for Rambo. I want to hold him but I can't stop thinking of Mia today.

Ok, this is going to sound weird, but it's true. My cat is about a year old now, and for the past 5-6 months whenever I start to pet her, she starts purring, and then - no joke- starts to suck on her own nipple.. she only does it when I pet her and make her purr. Doe anybody else's cat do this? Can anyone explain this?

Okay, so basically here's the situtation.
We have to move in a few weeks to an apartment that doesn't allow pets, and I have 2 cats and 2 little gerbils. I don't want to get rid of them, and I don't know anyone close enough to me that I trust. My dad won't let me keep them over at his house, because his cats will fight with him...I really want to keep them somehow.
I'm 11 years old, so I have no control to weither we're moving into a apartment that allows pets or not. They already told me they can't afford that, We can't sneak the cats into the apartment, way too risky. And I don't really want to give them to a no- kill shelter. It breaks my heart I have to give them up, I'll do anything at this point to keep them.

My dog died on the operating table and I was wondering if anyone would name their animal Hans. He was a Dacshund, thus the German name. Thanks and be cool.

Dogs can (and have) been bred over the years to be very small and "puppylike". If the same could be done with cats, would you want one?
