OUR CAT HAD KITTENS ABOUT 5 WEEKS AGO. EVERY TIME THEY GET NEAR AN ASHTRAY THAT HAS ANYTHING IN IT...THEY LICK THE ASHES! I DONT KNOW IF THEYRE LACKING IN SOMETHING OR IF THEY JUST LIKE THE TASTE OF ASHES. I MOVE THE TRAY AND THEY GET CRAZY TRYING TO FIND IT AGAIN. THEY JUST LOVE IT BUT IM SURE IT CANT BE GOOD FOR THEM TO EAT ASHES...ANY THOUGHTS ON THIS ONE?

my cats are 4 years old, brother and sister, and the female one follows me EVERYWHERE and always has. when i'm in the toilet and the bath she shoves the door to get in. even when i got locked out and slept in the car she came in the sunroof and miawed at me despite really hating the car. when she was a kitten she was the runt and very weak and i used to carry her round with me for warmth and hand feed her to keep her alive - so am i to blame for her clingyness? she's ok if i go to work, she'll just sleep or go in the garden, so i can leave her when necessary.

the boy cat just bimbles round outside and comes in to eat and cuddle so its obviously not genetic

so cynicle? (if I'm spelling it right) like for an example, I asked a few questions about wallabies as pets, and not knowing me AT ALL, people automatically said things like "you can't afford one" or "you can't care for one". I realize that most people can't do those things, but how do they know if I can, or not?

I have a passion for ALL animals especially dogs. I volunteer at the animal shelter and I do research on the average pay and things like that of a vet. Are there other things I could do to help me out?

I dont want to sound inhumane but they hate riding in cars and I dont want to make it worse for them. I was thinking about letting them sleep for the ride and let them wake up when I get to hotels. Would the vet give me tranquilizers?

Yesterday my dogs paw got closed on by someone closing the door and it started crying and crying. Then he went to sleep as he was breathing really hard. Now today he is walking around pretty well with an ocassional limp every now and then but for the most part he is walking fine. Im wondering if I should still take him to the vet but I thought that if it was broken he would not be able to walk on it.

Do you think some dogs like music and can have a preference to what type of music they like to listen to?

I know some cats that dont do that. I'm wondering why does my cat hiss at strangers, and sometimes it hisses at me.
