My bella is 4 years old she had her first litter of kittens this august past. In three years we lived with her meowing and moning . She got pregnant this june past because my 3 year old daughter left her out. I have had it with her meowing. I love my cat very much. I don't know if it will help to get her spayed at this age. Please help

Can anyone tell me how to train a puppy to sit? she is very tiny, and the old, lure them to sit with a treat isn't working. she just wants to stand up on her back feet, put her front paws around my hand and try to get the snack...

I have a very successful 55 gallon aquarium, which hosts a number of small fish including many tetras and mollies among others. i recently purchased some small hatchets and since yesterday has died and the other is showing signs of ick. this is my first aquarium so i'm not certain what to do but am afraid i will lose the whole tank (including my prized stingray pleco). any advice for the rookie?

We are getting him all the help my vet can offer... He gets Metacalm drops for the pain/to stop spasms and Cystease capsules for the PH balance, as well as a special urinary diet. The tumour takes up 1/3 of his bladder and we've been told he has less than a year to live, as the tumour may have seeded elsewhere.

He seems well and happy, and we take him to the vet at the first signs of any ill health.

Am I really doing all I can, though? The vet does not want to operate, and the expense is already considerable. Any suggestions?

I live in Michigan, and it's actually unseasonally warm right now, and when it does get very cold I let my dogs stay inside while I am at work (can't do it all the time, they love to distroy everything I own) so while I am at work (about 8 hrs a day) they are outdoors in a 10x10 covered dog kennel with 2 large, insulated dog houses. My dogs are both lab mixes, one about 45 lbs, and the other about 65 lbs. Any interesting suggestions on how to help them stay warm while I am at work during the day?

One boy, one girl, about four months old. When I separate them they cry and cry. Tried putting them in separate rooms-- they cry. Tried putting them in their carriers, they cry and meow. When I let them out, they want to wrestle each other, even though they are sore, especially the girl (who has stitches). It's dangerous for them to wrestle, but it's hard listening to them cry. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions on what to do? Thanks.

i'm only posting on here cause i know people will read it.

if you lost a larger black cat somewhere in fairfax virginia, please email me. we found it, fed it, and kept it inside overnight since it was so cold out. we let it out this morning, but feel it will come back (it came back to us after a 5 hour period). we will call animal control tonight when we find it again, but cannot keep it ourselves. we want to give the owner a chance to find it before sending it to fairfax county animal shelter on west ox road. please email me if you think this is your cat

About a month ago my folks got a female beagle puppy. But my Mom and older Sister have asthema and my sister has a hard time breathing from time to time. So we're selling our beagle, she stays downstairs in the kitchen in a exercise pen in our town house.

She'll be 15 weeks old tomarrow so she can't take a bath just yet.

Does anyone have any advice on what to do?

I really want to keep this beagle puppy!

My beagle mix died two years ago. We do have a male pug and if we kept the beagle we were going to breed her with him.

But does anyone have any advice on what I can do?

No jokes or wise cracks please.

He is very lethargic to very active, he loses control momentarily of whether he goes to the bathroom or not once in a while, he won't eat, he won't drink. He isn't mine so I can't do anything with it, which bothers me. He also seems like he is very sore a lot of the time. The neighbors won't do anything and neither will animal control. He is very young, maybe around a year, and I believe he is either a German Shepard Chow-Chow mix, or a German Shepard Shar-Pei mix.Please help-what do you think this "disease" is? I really need to know! Thank you!

There are so many people asking questions about the breeding process. I don't understand it! Is money more important to people then the lives of living breathing creatures?

I would like a good solid justifiable reason why there should be more dogs in this world. And I don't want to hear about money, or that your dog is wonderful and would produce great pups for families with kids.

My dog is about 6 years old and has never had a litter of puppies. We want to breed her at least once but we are concerned of her and the puppies health.
