Hello all... I have a rat terrier and she had a litter of 9 born on the 2nd of October. Unfortunately 2 of them died. Now 26 days later they are teething and the mother pushes them away because she feels their teeth. This is also her first litter! She really is a good mom but the pups teething really bothers her. I am wondering if I can start feeding them canned food. I have tried feeding them Goats Milk through a bottle with no success. Is it okay to feed them canned food?

Thank you for your time to answer this question.

My 4 month old kitten recently spent a weekend with my parents. A day after she came back I noticed that her stomach had grown outward on both sides, significantly. It looks like she has two small apples protruding from her sides, near her back leg joints. I am concerned because she is tiny and the masses are rather large. Also, since I've noticed this she has been more tired than usual and not very playful. She is eating and using her litter like normal. Any ideas? The vet isn't open until Monday and I'm a bit concerned. Thanks!

My dachshund crossbreed is 8 months old, and is generally terrified of nail clippers. We tried trimming her nails before a couple of times, but now that she's older, we have great difficulty getting her to stay still. We also tried filing, but it's not as effective as clipping. We're also thinking of just taking her to the vet and have her claws trimmed there. Any other suggestions?

The collar I'm referring to has links and compresses when they pull, but his neck is so thick it doesn't fit him. I want him to walk right next to me at my pace.

I've some young 4 week old kittens & Mum's milk has run low & so I'm topping them up using a kitten gloop recipe.

I've read about the beneficial properties of honey & how good it can be BUT I've also read that honey should not be given to babies because it can contain a spore of the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. This can cause a rare form of food poisoning (botulism) in babies.

So, what I wondered was ... is it safe to use with kittens?

I'm a Veterinarian but this defies my years of behavioral studies. Darned cats!

I bottle-fed my newest kitty, a black and white long hair named "melody" since before her eyes opened. She's weaned from the bottle, but she's not weaned from ME.

She wants to suck on my chin or ear lobe. I don't let her, but she'll stop purring and bite me when I correct her. then she'll skulk away and pout, then come back and try again. She's 16 weeks old and she's interrupting my sleep, The stubborn little bugger! When I lock her out she scratches the door and yells. I've started sleeping in a sleeping bag with my head under a pillow!

HELP!

as I'm writing this question. My son noticed it a couple of hours ago and all the children are very upset. I can't get them settled - the hamster (Candy) is hanging on but I think she will die tonight.

Does anyone have any advice on helping the children cope - I've already tried the hamster heaven talk.
