when they want affection from you? Do you give it?
My cats will 'paw' me when they want me to pay attention to them. And I always give them some attention. They are very aloof when they want to be but can be such babies too when they want to be.

Hey! I am really wanting to get a teacup puppy, so I was just now on a newspaper website and I was looking for a teacup dog, and I saw atleast 10 different ads for FREE teacup yorkie pups. They are all from 10-13 weeks old. Is this possible? I mean, those dogs normally are like 400bucks and up. Is there something wrong with Teacup Yorkies? Why are so many people giving away teacup puppies of ANY breed? Those are the most profitable. Could this be some sort of a 'trap' or scam, or are these people really clueless as to how much their dogs are worth?

My dog is goin to be either a court jester or prisoner for halloween, and I want to base my costume off of hers. What would be a good costume under the same theme as that? For example if I was Dorthy she could be a cowardly lion...

So I have this 8 month old chocolate lab and she is a total spaz case. She's very timid around other people. And she can never calm down. She only knows the "sit" command but that never lasts for very long. She practically takes your hand off when you feed her a treat because she get's so excited. Whenever someone comes over I can hardly contain her because she is so excited all she wants to do is jump. She jumps on everyone. I've tried multiple things. What do you think I should do? I thought about a muzzle for the times that she's just too hyper. Because she likes to play bite. She never licks.

Especially if you are an adult male?One of my stupid cats hisses and growls at me all of the time.My wife say's it' because I play with him too rough, but sometimes he does it even when I'm just petting him.

I know it sounds goofy.Maybe he's not the real p ussy, LOL.

I have a year old American Eskimo. He's frisky and playful, but sometimes muc htoo wild and like to rough-house. I'm thinking of adopting a mellow 1-3 year old cat to keep me company when i don't feel like wrestling with the dog... XD

Is this a good idea...? I'm not sure if the two will get along, but as a puppy, my dog grew up with a cat at his previous owner's house. He hasn't seen one since.
I am a full time student and am not home almost 9 hours a day.... That's not good for a cat huh? Can they be left alone for long periods of time? I always thought that cats were independant and such... Opinions/ advice?

I had over 50 hummingbirds this summer, (probably many more than that). I had 10 feeders I filled almost every day. I noticed the population has diminished by about 3/4. I still have hangers-on, maybe 10 or so. Last year I had a few that stayed the whole winter. I have 6 feeders up now, should I leave just one?....or?......

Please go read my last question that will explain this one.. Everyone's responses made me rush him to the emergency vet immediatley.They wanted $1500 to keep him overnight to run tests, then send him to my regular vets in the morning. Being othat Im 22 with not alot of money & no cc's I couldnt afford it. I have him home now, I feel horrible. He is sleeping now. He has thrown up 1 time since he got home. Its seems like its always after a ride. The vet didnt have any answers they told me not to feed him or give him water. He seems so thirsty. Im going to take him to my vets in the am. Does anyone know of any home remedies or something to maybe give him some nutrients in his body since he hasnt eaten since yesterday? I feel horrible not being able to do anything for him right now. I dont have any family, and just make ends meet with the money I have. I have bad credit, so now source of borrowed funds. Any info would be incouraging, at this point I dont know what to do anymore...

My dog is a 3-month-old yorkie-poo. I've heard many people say they use their own shampoo on their dog. I'm thinking something generic and not too harsh.
