I know chihuahuas are known to bark and play and be very annoying but my chihuahua just wont bark. she barks sometimes when she is thretened by other dogs but when it comes to playing or just having fun shes calm and doesnt do much. i want to teach her to bark and play so if anyone has a trick they know to get her to bark please tell me my dog is a very fast learner it takes her less than 20-10 minutes to learn something. although she is a chihuahua she is quite calm and is only a bit jumpy out side

about 150 yards away from my apt. is a publix plaza that has some woods next to it.

i always see these little black kittens. they are really young and would like to catch them as pets. problem is that they are really skittish around people (or just me). everytime i get with in 3 feet of them they retreat back into the woods. i know if i can mannage to get between them and the woods i could scare them out close to the building and then i would be able to catch them. but they are always close to the woods so that plan fails.

what would be a good way for me to manage to catch these kittens? i would like to get them before a car or animal control gets to them.

I am wanting to eastablish an aquarium of neon tetras. I have limited space in which to place a tank. I already have three bettas in different 1 gallon bowls and I have a large indoor garden. My landlord is opposed to me obtaining a large tank. I am also a college student and I have extremely limited funds. What is the smallest tank you can keep neon tetras in? What are the minimum requirements for temperature, food, filtering, size, how many, about any infomation. I would love to raise a few of these fish but I don't want to but any if I will be unable to properly care for them. Are they compatiable with betta fish? Also where is a good place to buy healthy neon tetras? If someone could give me the complete run-down on how to set up the tank, the smallest I could use per number of fish (ex: 1 fish per x gallons), food, water changes, and water conditions that would be great. Any and all infomation is important to me in my research to decide about purchasing these fish.

My cat (black) is peeing on the couch. He is a healthy 7 year old male weighing about 13 lbs. He pees on the couch and it smells bad. It stinks up the whole house. The vet gave us a repellent however it did not help. We do not want to have to get rid of him. Please let us know what we can do.

He has been to the vet 3 times, takes pills, gets a bath with special shampoo weekly, and gets a weekly shot, but he is still scratching.
Any suggestions?
Also- any suggestions for something else i can put on his skin to make him stop scratching?
And finally- how are contagious is dog-dog scabies? I live in Taiwan, where there are thousands of stray dogs, do i have to worry about my dog constantly having this problem?

Fyi- he is a boxer

I have read that calling a dog, cat, parrot, etc a pet is demeaning to them. Do you believe this is true? Describe why, please.
