Pets - 9 November 2006

every morning i wash all of my cats chins with sulfi oxi dex shampoo from the vet, but it comes back. it looks like blackish brown scabs, and washes off the sponge turnes rusty with these little crumbs. no fleas. tina, the caloco has chin acne. but i can see the blackheads and when i sqeezed one, it came out, a long black oily snake. but the others have the daily crumbs including tina. i only use glass and ceramic bowls. is feline acne contagous?
it all started when i adopted a female persian. and also when i wash the crumbs off, the skin seems irritated. HELP!!!!

She has been very healthy all her life. The vet told us several years ago she had lived longer than he would have expected. We want her to be at home and as comfortable as possible when the time comes. She's acting normal except that she won't eat and is very thin and weak. We have tried to entice her with many things to encourage her to eat but nothing interest her. She has hearing and vision loss (not total) and athritis in her hip. (large dog) At her age we understand she is dying but we want it to be natural and at home. Just don't know exactly what to expect.

I was recently out near one of my backyard ponds and noticed wrapped around a large branch underwater, there was a clump of black specs. I have about 10 goldfish in there and I know that their eggs tend to be opaque or pearl looking? What are these black things that look like eggs?

My 1 1/2 year old cat has just started a really annoying habit of chewing on things. She sits and gnaws on cardboard boxes and potato chip bags. I don't know if her teeth hurt or if she's just discovered the crackly noise it makes. None of my cats have ever done this before. Maybe she just does it because I told her to stop it. Suggestions?

My cat was spayed on 17th October - and the vet did a fine job of shving her tummy. The fur is barely growing, and she still has a little white tum! How long did it take your female cats hair to grow back? It seems to be taking forever

My man has several pet names for his dog. For example Suger pie, honey bun etc. etc. etc. Then he started calling me the same names too. Sometimes I don't know if he is calling me or his dog. Is that offensive? Would any of you get offended by that? It doesn't bother me. Because he is a very loving person. But my sister said she would get offended by that. He loves his dog very much and I like his dog too. So what do you think people?

My Daschund will not stop using the bathroom in the house. We let him out frequently and he will go outside but he sneaks around and goes behind our recliners in the living room or in my new babies room. My husband wants to sell him because he feels this will never end. I am stuck I love the dog and want what is best for him.

I am so disgusted by this fast moving ban to get rid of the pitbull breed and I wanted to find out if anyone has a pitbull that they dont trust. I know there are pits out there that have/will attack but I am a firm believer that its because they were raised and trained inproperly. Please let me know your stories/opinion on banning pits
