ok, i have a 3 month old german sheperd, and when i let him outta his kennel to play, if i turn my head for a SECOND, he either has his head in the cat box or he just brought something outta it, its the clumping kind. i also have a 4 year old jack russell terrier and i have seen her do it before to. NOT often tho. like once a couple months. why do they do this?
i know some of u will say to pick the cat box up and put it higher, well i have tried this and i dont really want a cat litter box on my counters,

why is he doing this? i heard he could be missing some kinda nutrients or something? has anyone elses dog done this? serious answers PLLEEASSE

alright... here lately my cat has gotten into this "lets attack" mode... if my limbs aren't completely covered while in bed (he only does this in bed) he'll scratch the hell outta me... he doesn't do this to my hubby... ONLY me! its weird... but then after he tires himself... or gets tired of being hit in the head a MILLION times, he crawls on my belly, and just lays there.... ONLY on my belly... and only me. Whats up with that?!

I just bought my male betta a bigger tank, there is no filter, just plain freshwater. Well I can't seem to find any females in the pet stores so i was wondering what other type of fish would be ok to put in with him that dosn't require filter either??

we have three dogs... one of them gets diarrhea a lot and has accidents on the carpet or in his crate.... i just took him for his 6 month check up and he doesn't have any worms.... so i am wondering what else can cause a dog to have diarrhea.. there is a warning on the food we feed them that feeding too much can cause diarrhea...so we are planning to reduce the amount of time that the dogs can eat to thirty minutes twice a day instead of having food out all the time... do you think this will help? what do you think is wrong? he is 4 years old..... and this is a fairly recent problem.....

A stray dog (6-9mo old lab) recently adopted US. We've had no luck finding the owner & are thinking of keeping him, however we have NO IDEA if he's housetrained. All we know is he pee's everytime you reach down to pet him. He think he may have been abused.

I adopted 2 wild ferrel cats. I have a garden shed with a cat hole cut in it so they have a place to go. Lately something has been eating their food, and we are pretty sure it is possums. Is there any way to deter them from coming in there other than not feeding my cats?

I have a male/female cat (both spayed/neutered) and I was just wondering why females have more higher tendency of being a "loner". my male cat is like 4x more affectionate than my female at times. is it just my cats or are anybody elses male/female cats like mine. in my experience, female cats seem to be distant from their owners. why is this? just curious! any answers will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

My female german shephard is 1 year old, and has went into heat for the 2nd time, however the first time we didn't let her breed, this time we decided too. How long will it be before the puppies come?
