The kitten that I am getting is a male tabby cat, with a laid back personality. I want a name that is different, but that I can shorten for a nickname. Let me know of any unique names for my new kitten. Thanks!

I want to get a dog, but I need to write a persuasive essay first. I need to persuade my mother to get it. I don't really know what dog I want, all I know is that I would like to save a dog from being put down in a dog shelter or pound. I also need help on how much it would cost to go to checkups with a vet. everyone month, how much would food cost, among other things. Please can anyone help?

I have a black Lab, she is about 9 months old. we just moved into an apartment and she is a little big for the place. She won't stay out back where she has a 30 ft stake out cord. the neighbors already complained about her barking, thats the problem. We were going to try to bring her back slowly and work on barking. we tried a mussel but she scratches her nose raw. But the maintenence man said he wanted her, that he had a big back yard for her to run in and he has a couple of kids for her to play with and he has other dogs. We want to keep her because we love her, and we'll have to work on potty training her but what would be best for her. We want her to be happy and not be cramped. Which would be better? Thank you

does anyone know anything about this? they say to amputate (which i will do in a heart beat ) but there is a small chance it has spread, sure they xray but as the vet said there could be microscopic traces we just can't see at this time. if anyone know's anything about this let me know or what the odds are please let me know ?

I switched my dogs food from Iams to this all natural brand called Natural choice. Ever since my dogs poop a lot more. I was told that this Natural Choice would make them actually poop less because it is all natural. There poop isn't diarhhea, it's just really big piles. I switched the foods slowly like you're supposed to. Should I switch back to Iams?

It seems to me there are a lot of people that have pets but are not able to care for them financially or spend enough time training them. Should there be some registration/qualification process to become a pet owner?

We have small children. We have cats. We want a small-mid sized dog breed. WE DO NOT WANT A YAPPER. Meaning, no chihuahuas, min pins, etc. It will get a daily, mid-length walk, but would not have a yard to run around in, would be an indoor dog, but in a rather large house. We don't want something that would require being brushed more than once a week; don't want a high-mainenance coat. My husband does not like the more slender breeds, like italian greyhounds, whippets, etc. Other than that, we're open to suggestions? Any ideas? And please mind the conditions we have, we're after the breed that will suit us best, we want a few opinions. Thanks in advance for the help!

I found a free 1 month old female in my local newspaper and was wondering if they are good with kids. I have a little girl and she loves dogs, and would be really good with one.
