She follows me around all the time.. cries at night to be with me.. Cries when I leave for work, and when I return.. When I watch tv she cuddles right up to me.. the problem is, is that I feel bad for her when I leave for long shifts I think she is lonely maybe?

What are snake mating habits? do snakes spray like cats? Is their venom really sex producing hormones??

Well a new Mitred Conure has arrived and so far has not drawn blood but its just a matter of time. He is half plucked, petrified of hands and sticks, will jump onto a forearm and sit on my shoulder but then after a couple of mins will try to bite. Hes only a young bird from what i can tell and I know hes had at least 5 changes of home now in 5 months. Hes interested in my Zon and she would love to be froends with him but I have been warned he attacks other birds. Hes a good weight and eats well. So advice and ideas on

1, stop him biting

2, stop him hitting himself in the head (repeatedly and violently)

3, stop the occasional 120000 decible scream (so far covering him seams to be helping and uncovering him for 5 mins of quiet)

4, stop him plucking, he came with lot and lots of toys and I have not seen him pluck any so far.

My cat gets all the attention in the world, gets fed enough, and always has fresh water and a clean litterbox, yet- he meows constantly, We were previously watching a female cat, and now the meowing is worse! I'm figuring he's still a bit too young to mate, so I'm just not sure what it is and I don't believe in getting rid of a pet if it's not causing any major problems, but if I don't figure it out- my family will reduce me to doing so...

This is not her normal behavior and it came on very suddenly. As a result I'm very concerned that there may be something more going on. Any suggestions?

I am getting that goldfish sooner than I thought: TONIGHT! I am excited but nervous. Could you help me overcome my fears?

1.) What if she gets me a tiny tank? I am a kid with no job, and I don't have the money to get a large tank! What should I do if she gets me a tiny tank?

2.) What should I feed it?

3.) I am going trick-or-treating tonite cuz it's Halloween (and my b-day) and what should I do with the fish until then?

4.) Is there anything else I must know?

5.) What if there's noooo filter? GOLDFISH ARE MESSY! I can't have a goldfish in a tank without a filter... how much do they cost???

Thanx!

There is a stray cat that is trying to get into my apartment and is tearing up my screens. I don't want to hurt it, but it won't go away. I have a cat inside so I need a method that won't hurt her either. Can anyone help? I would prefer a natural home remedy

My neighbour can no longer look after her female cat due to illness. We have fed the cat in the past when she used to go away or was in hospital, so now as she has is no longer capable, the cat is coming round to us for food. Whilst I have no problems in feeding her, now the winter is coming, we are letting the cat stop in the house in the evenings. The problem is that the cat is both urinating and messing in the house. This is cannot put up with. I have never had a cat as a pet before and I do not want to see it put down because no one will care for it.
Is it possible to house train an 8 year old cat and how do I go about it.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

My other two cats have been vaccinated against FIV. I'm told she has been a stray for about 2 years. I read that the vaccine for FIV will cause a cat to test positive. How do they know if it's a true positive? Also the vet said that it can be transferred thru a shared water bowl but all the websites I've looked at said FIV can only be transferred thru deep bites. The vet told me to keep her in my garage and bring her back for retesting in two weeks, that it's possible that the cat was just recently exposed to FIV and won't actually contract it, but I want to be prepared in case it comes back positive again.

I'm trying to find a hutch that is outdoors safe, and BIG. like no smaller then 6 feet. Any idea where i can find one? The only big one's i've been able to find it in the Uk. Why is that?
