We have a stray cat who has become very friendly. She had kittens (not her first set) about 6 weeks ago and we gave them away to good homes, but unfortunately it was rather abrupt... one day they were here, then they were all gone in an afternoon. Now she is constantly meowing and looking for them.. How do I get her to calm down and move on?

We have 2 males brothers that want nothing to do with her and never have, but she keeps going to them. She seems untrusting of me, since I was the 1 who took the sick and dying bird out and to the vet and she saw that.

It is *not* polydactyly as far as I can tell- he has normal paws and claws (5 'fingers' on each front paw, 4 on each back paw, one normal claw per finger) except for the claws growing out through his paw pads! He is not infected, does not seem to be in pain, but I am concerned that they may become infected or cause pain later. Does anyone have any experience with this?

My friends dog is not drinking or eating. She says its vomit smells like motor oil. Im wondering if a dog would drink that on its own?(most dumb animals would-in theory) and/or anti freeze.
I know dogs love antifreeze. It could smell like oil if it was used and came out of a car that has a head gasket problem. And a dog would drink that no problem im sure.
She cant take it to a 24 hour vet as she lives in countryville tx, usa... there isnt one around. Ive heard of things removing poison like charcoal, would giving the dog some of this, OR ANYTHING else help draw the poison? What about snaking a tube and forcing water? im sure IV is better...
I know there isnt much she can do.. at this point..but figured why not ask if there are any "home remedy" or natural solutions to this IF you get it quick enough. Im sure this dogs fate is sealed, but itd be good to know, as this seems to be a trend this year.
Thanks

I think I made a mistake by stocking my tank too fast with fish. The ammonia and nitrite levels are all o.k., but the water is cloudy, which makes me think I might have killed the beneficial bacteria inadvertently? There is a large piece of bogwood in the tank which stains the water a nice yellow color, so it might be partly that, but it seems overly cloudy. My question is, is it possible to do too many water changes? (it was like 30% every other day a while ago) or is it better to clean the filters only? If the tank has to be recycled, should I do nothing until the biofilter returns? I've been doing weekly water changes and putting in small amounts of AmQuel lately to try and get rid of the cloudiness, to no effect.

His dog is 14, and was diagnosed with stomach cancer. Since being put on crafate and pepcid, he has had no further bleeding, but is crying with pain over what is presumed to be arthritis. He is stiff. Vet is giving him codeine and amantadine. My BF is trying to do everything to get this dog to hang in there. I made a vague reference to euthanasia, and was harshly scolded. Then he is telling me I am being hostile. All this recent lashing out is baffling, as I have tried only to be supportive (my dog was euthanized last week, on the 31st.). I said to him that he tended to lash out when severely upset or worried about anything, and he hung up on me. I hate when he hangs up on me. He was very angry with me. I only meant to tell him that I am trying to be supportive, and to ask him to understand that I am still grieving my dog, but to please not take it out on me? I think he needs to let the dog go, and that he is in denial. It's hard to watch him...Is all this normal? Hurts!

I had 3 fish in my tank. One I have had for about a year and a half, the other two I only had for about 3 months. I changed my water and the fish were fine for about 3 1/2 weeks. I didn't over feed them either. When I went to work, all my fish were fine. When I came home they were all dead. My Bottom Dweller (pleco) was floating dead and was a mottled green color. My other two fish were these little blue fish, but don't know what the name of them is. When I found them dead, they were grey and brown and at the bottom of the tank. What can cause fish to die within a few hours for no apparant reason?
