The horse was a beautiful liver chestnut mustang. His name was Montana Star. He was at the trainers house when it happened. He was in one of the pastures and got cut on something. The cut was 2 inches deep in his leg. It reached his cannon bone. His owner and the trainer took him to Gainsville to an emergency clinic, but they couldn't save him. I'm really sad because I really loved him and I was supposed to show him. I never even got to ride him. I always thought there would be more time. This was all very unexpected and his owner is devestated. She has spent so much time and effort training him and taking care of him. Your prayers for her and everyone who's lives were touched by this wonderful horse would be very appreciated. Thank you so much for caring. It means a lot to me.

With the heat wave being what its been, my air-conditioner has been running for days and I have caught a couple of my cats lapping at the water coming from the unit when they're out on the roof (its a flat top "deck"). I have to say it concerns me somewhat as I don't know what's in the water.

My guinea pig is barely eating and barely drinking and he has white discharge from the eye. One eye is even almost closed because of it. I've noticed in the past that sometimes I would hear him coughing, I'm not sure if that is relevant to his current situation. What's making him sick? There's really no 24 emergency vets around here and I'm not sure how he'd take a long trip in the summer heat in his condition. Please help, and how can I help him?

I think my 9yr. old lab has heartworms this morning she wouldn't eat or drink, her ribcage area is swollen and I think shes been coughing. Shes been looseing weight resently and much of her energy but I thought it might be the heat. I live very far away from a vet so its very hard to go to one or get one to come out. She seems to be feeling better this afternoon but I'm not sure what to do and I hate to see her suffer, Any advice?

We have two Siberian Forest Cats. We got them because my son is allergic to other cats. He got near the Siberians and had no reaction and we've had two of them for two years now with no problem (and no medicine). Some web sites claim >no< difference, but we have noticed it.

Hello, I asked another sheep question, but here is another one. I want a cute sheep, but I want one with a good disposition too. What kind do you think would be the best for me.
Oh, also I would be showing it in the fair, and keeping mainly for a pet.

Hello everybody! My name is Christina and I am using someones e-mail. I was wondering if this is rare for a cat if it is and all white cat with black face, ears, paws, feet, and tail. It has straight on the back and curly hair on the stomach. It has bright blue eyes. Different color blues too. It's not a Persian or Siamese. Its not a mix either. Its very beautiful. Her name is Sapphire. So is it rare?

My Dog won't move?
My husband went out to water the garden today and noticed my daschuhund will not move. When she tries to her back legs move but she just goes backwards. My husband tried to pick her up and she yelped from pain.
Before you say take her to the vet they are closed in my area and we do not have any money to take her to an emergency care they demand payment upfront.
does anyone know of anyway to make her comfortable until tomorrow when we can get her to the vet?
also, does anyone know what might be wrong with her?

Additional Details

2 days ago
Also, she is leaning on her right hind leg and her two front legs and up. So she is like sitting up. If you know what I mean?

Thank you all for your advise My husband and I came home from work today and she had passed away. Thank you all for your thoughts a prayers.

My cat had fleas. I treated her and I'm treating the house. I've tied her up on a tile surface and I'm giving her baths every 6 days with a flea growth regulator shampoo along with giving her a monthly spot treatment and feeding her garlic. I will admitt that I had a habit of laying clothes around and she liked to rest on the clothes in the laudary basket. While lying in bed awake, I've been bitten while wearing nothing but my underware. I put white sheets on the bed so I can see if any fleas are on the bed. Can they bite through clothing? Can they crawl under elastic? And last, but not least, if they get in my hair, what can I use to get them out? I've searched the net, but have found nothing for human hair. I was thinking of using alcohol since they die almost instantly from it. But what if they laid eggs. What do I do then?

We moved out a few months ago, but they just sent us a bill for $443.00, claiming we damaged the carpet. Other than a few expected stains we kept the apartment in great shape. We had a cat for a few months, but we didn't tell the apartment manager or pay the pet deposit. We gave the cat away, but I scrubbed the carpet with every pet odor, dander, and 'accident' remover I could find. Is there a way for them to physically prove we had the cat, when there is no evidence left of her in the apartment? We had to give her to family, because of allergies.
