We adopted two apx. 8 week old kittens from our local SPCA on 8/21. They were dewormed on 8/20. On the first night they both ate fine, but later that evening, one of them vomited her food back. The vomit seemed fine, just what she had ate. The next day, she refused all food but was drinking plenty of water. Her stools were normal and free of worms. Also she was active and quite playful . Late on the third day she finally ate, but again vomited later. Again it seemed to be just the food. She's still active, and her eyes and nose are clear, and her stool are normal. What would be causing this? Could it be from the deworming?

I got my cats just about toilet trained. Someone told me they can be taught to flush the toilet. Any ideas.

my red ear slider is getting bigger and i need to find a better basking area for him. I read reviews about the floating turtles docks that have suction cups but they said the product isn't good if you have a big turtle. what do you guys use as a basking area for your turtle?


and also does anyone know of Semi-submersible water filters, because most of the filters i have seen , have to be fully submerisble in the water and our tank isn't tall enough to fill up water all the water, the turtle wont have a basking area

My dad has a female shih tzu/poodle mix dog and my uncle has a male shih tzu/maltese dog.

My uncle found his dog wandering the neighborhood 5 years ago and he decided to keep it so he doesn't know the dog's history.

Well my dad wants his dog to have one litter before she gets spayed.

Only problem is, we're not sure if the male is neutered! We don't want to go through the trouble of trying to mate them if it's not going to work.

How can we tell if he's been neutered??? Any identifying scars to search for?

Please, only serious answers! Thanks!

I also have three others that I bought from the same place on the same day and they live in the same aquarium, everything identical. They are doing wonderfully! I just got them about 1 week ago.

I am in the process of toilet training my cats. I keep finding poop on the seat.. YUCK.. I think it is the male cat that is doing that. Is this something they will stop doing.

I have recently bought a german shepherd pup. He has a lovely temperment. I have been training him the basics such as sit/come and walking on a lead. I have also been training him to wait for his food until I tell him to eat. Today I feed him and then gave him a large bone with a few scraps of meat on it. He was very defensive of it such that when i tried to give him a pet as i was leaving he was snarling at me. What do you do about this? I obviously need to nip this real quick. He is 12 weeks old.

My one cat, since she was a kitten, steals our hair scrunches, rubber bands, and hords them. Everyday a new one is in her food dish. She is two years old and still does that. When we take it out she gets another. The other cat Butthead, ,we talk to him and he cries out to us. I never seen this before. You just call his name and he cries this alien type cry. Everyone laughs at him. We don't abuse him

My 1 yr old chihuahua female is pad trained perfection. After her recent delievery of her pups, now she seems to only go on the pad when she feels like it?? Or she will pee on my sis-in-law's bed (where the male chihuahua sleeps). Or she will poo on the kitchen floor (she did that a few times already the past week). Can females be territorial??? She also pees close to where the male chihuahua pees at when i take'em out to our yard? Is any of that normal? Is it jealousy? We give her so much more attention now that i'm pregnate and home myself with her versus me working and only seeing her a couple of hours before bed? Whats going on?

Dog is a 12 week old cockapoo. He is doing a good job with house training during the day (we are using the crate training method!), but I am not comfortable going outside at 4am. Should I try puppy pads at 4am and take them up after he's done? Will this confuse him and ruin the house training? Are there other options for 4am bathroom breaks?

My neighbor abuses her dautson. He is so loving and good. She smacks him, makes him stay on his bed all day and night, and worst of all, she kicked him and he walks with his back legs to the side of him. She has had at least three violations filed with our manager and still is not punished. Another violation was reported yesterday because she was dragging him. Nothing happened.
She threatens management with discrimination and they are affraid of her. She is huge, probably 325 and has a harsh voice. Could everyone be affraid of her?
