I got my kitten when it was about 5 weeks old. I was giving it cows milk along with its food for a couple of weeks and the litter box smelled terrible. When I stopped giving the kitten milk the odor stopped. Is this coincidence? I have seen questions about smelly litter boxes and feel like asking if the cat has been drinking milk but I don't know if this would be a cause. I have seen mention of diarrhea from cows milk but that was not a problem just the smell.

I have an outdoor bird cage with two birds, its a pretty big cage but theres these neighborhood cats that always try to get at my poor birds!

Is there something that I can spray around the area of the cage? Something that won't harm my birds?

He's quite vocal most of the time but sometimes he just opens his mouth like he's gonna make noise but nothing comes out. It's not a yawn or anything, he just opens his mouth a little.

I have a garter snake that is currently living in a 38-gallon tank. My mom saw an ad in the newspaper for a free ball python. I am wondering if it is possible to raise the 2 together, or will they fight/eat each other?

My pekingnese has very itchy skin. He keeps scratching it and chewing on himself. It's driving him (and me) crazy! The vet said that allergies are causing his itchy skin. The vet recommended that I give him children's benadryl to help the itching, but that doesn't really work. Does anyone has a good remedy to help my pup stop itching so much? Thanks!

My pearl cockatiel will hop out of her cage only to start screeching when outside and inside. It's not a loud whistle. One of the Petsmart people described it as a dinosaur noise. It's weird b/c she's really friendly. She won't bite. She will follow me around and come when I want her to perch on my fingers. She will eat from my hand, but sometimes I just put her by me and she makes that funny dinosaur noise. I've had cockatiels before and none of them made this noise...most of them had a sharp whistle/scream if scared or wanted attention...not this weird noise. Then sometimes even in her cage, she will be eating and making that same noise. Has anyone else noticed their cockatiels make that noise? And why?

Yet another question about my new kitten.. as I said, I've never had a cat before. I found her trying to eat peanut shells on my front lawn on Monday and had her examined by a vet. I decided to keep her, and I'm slowly learning about cats, but what concerns me is that she isn't very interested in exploring and playing. I bought her one of those kitty condo things and she hasn't displayed much interest in it. The only thing she plays with is the string from an old hoodie. She has a catnip mouse, a tiny tennis ball and a few other toys, none of which seem to strike her interest. She sleeps most of the time and when she's not, she's kneading my lap or crying for something (I have no idea what she wants). Could her lack of interest in toys be due to the malnutrition, and that she just needs some rest and a few good meals to get her going?

I have a six month old puppy. She has been crate trained for the past three and a half months. Since I started back to work after we got the puppy, I have been coming home to let her out at lunch. This is starting to become exhausting! I would like to start leaving her for the day. The only problem is that I would be gone from 7am until 3 or 3:30.

Does anyone know the length of time a puppy can be left in a crate at a time?

I have a Birman and he's quite vocal (I've had him for 10 yrs so I'm used to it). A friend has 2 Birmans and they are just as bad! What's up with Birmans? They're beautiful but sometimes I cannot take their bossy meowing!
