My cat gags when doing the above. It doesn't matter if the comb is new or old, clean or dirty, large or small.

My neighbor is not taking care of their dog. It is a shi-tzu mix with a golfball size swelling on it's front paw. I've called animal control and 911 about it. They aren't doing anything about it. Is there anyone else I can call?

The puppy seems to have all the characteristics of a true Golden Retriever. (the shape of the head, nose, eyes, etc) but the pet shop cannot provide the pedigree document because it's father (sire) didn't have it. Is it that important to have this document? Can't decide whether I should get the dog. Help!!

I just adopted an adult (2 1/2 year old) male cat today from a lady and her husband who had to give him up. What's the best way to ease him into this new transition? (new owner, new living space). I know you're usually supposed to have the cat in it's own room with it's litterbox and food, but we live in a 1 bedroom apartment and don't want to put the litterbox in the bedroom (which is where he'd hiding now).

Any advice would be appreciated :-).

thanks!

I just got 'Doris' yesterday from the pound. She is an 8-10yr old beagle/terrier mix that came in as a stray a couple of months ago. She is a great little dog, but doesn't answer to Doris. When she came in as a stray they didn't know what her name was so they just picked one that seemed to fit her. I have tried every possible name I can think of to see if I can luck into figuring out what her original name was, but no luck and she doesn't answer to Doris. Will she ever?

Many of the world's greatest scholars and church founders believed and preached that animals go to Heaven. The Bible is also full of Scriptures proving the fact but yet there are still many who refuse to accept the idea. It's amazing why so many intelligent people avoid the turth when it's right there in front of them.

Our unneutered 3-year-old male cat has been spraying liberally since the spring. Now our house smells like a giant litter box! It's almost impossible to see where his "spots" are, but some smell worse than others. Someome mentioned a product called "Nature's Miracle" but I've heard negative stuff about it too. Should we just call in a pro or rent a steamer? And what about getting him neutered? The vet said it was really to late to stop the spraying, tho' the smell wouldn't be as bad. HELP!

My cat seems to not be using the litter box these days. Instead, he chooses to use a corner in my basement. Why?

OK...don't laugh...but my dog thinks that what's in the cat box is the best dog treat of all time!! I've got an old lab and an old cat...we've been struggling with this problem for years...

I've tried everything. I can't put a cover on the cat box cause then the cat won't go in it. I even tried to put a kitty door in the room where the cat box is...but the cat won't go through the door. She will crap in the floor first...or just sit by the door and meow.

I have punished, spanked, yelled, tried "positive-re-enforcement"just about everything imaginable to the dog to try and get her to stop...but rest assured, as soon as I leave the house..she makes a bee line for the cat box...I've caught her in the act numerous times.

Any Suggstions? I'm tired of my dog's kitty litter moustache!!

She is only 15 months old. She has way to much energy. To try to keep her off of the leg is impossible. She runs even with the bad leg. When I let her out to use the bathroom, she wants to run. W/o taking her to the park, she is going crazy. One more question, could this have happened when she was being spayed? The night she came home is when the leg started to act up. It has been about a year and the pain comes and goes depending on how hard she plays.

I already have a Miniature Pinscher. She is 2 years old. She is a dominate dog. I was wondering if I got a another dog (a puppy) that she would start marking her territory again. Do you think that she would. She would never hurt a puppy she would just show it that she is the boss. Should I get a male or female? Thank You
