Pets - 12 November 2006

I'm having some ant issues ever since it's getting cold and rainy. They come in my bedroom from the porch, where my puppy's food and water is located. I want to use an ant killer that is safe for my puppy as well. If I get the spray I'm affraid she'll lick it and if I get those traps she'll probably chew them.

PLZ HELP!

Thank you!

I have had both a girl dog and a boy dog that aren't fixed, and they both have the same horrible breath and they seem to emit an awful smell once in a while. Have you ever heard of that? Is that because neither of them aren't fixed?

We have tried all kinds of suggestions from spray bottles, to loudly saying, no, etc, but this cat doesn't seem to learn that biting is bad. Any help would be appreciated.

I have 2 male cats about 7mths old and the 1 (which could hardly even make any noise) is now whinning and trying to (for lack of a better word,) "mount" the other male cat. I know I need to get them fixed but have no way to do it now. They haven't started to spray yet does that mean maybe they won't? and how do I keep him from going after the other one? also, he has pooped on the floor 2 times and never did that b4.

It seems like every time I go to hold a cat, it leaps out of my arms and scratches me in the side with its back claws. How can I hold a cat so that it won't leap away or scratch me?

do dogs nipples only fill up with milk if they are pregnant? she hasnt showed any signs of a false pregnancy, but her stomach isnt big, and she isnt nesting, and she would be due right around now. but she licks down there alot, and she sleeps constantly, but she isnt eating very much. help

well my dog would be almost due, but i am not sure exactly when, if she is even pregnant! her nipples are filling up and they are very large and droopy. vet said it would be pointless to do a checkup now. anyways, today she puked a few times, and she has had some discharge, but nothing else, could these be signs that shes very close? do you think shes even pregnant? she is a year and a half old, 15 pound chihuahua

I live in the Sacramento-Vacaville vicinity and I have been looking for a kitten all week. I tried the SPCA and looking for flyers around town but with no luck. All the kittens in the shelter were all big. I like to raise them from when they're tiny so that they bond really well.

If you know anyone who has kittens or where you think I should look please email me at monkeysgirl04@sbcglobal.net or respond here.
I am looking for a female kitty. I know how to hand raise, so that's not a problem. Thanks for taking the time to read and maybe hlp me out!

My pet is on continuous medication and we love him too much. we need to go away for 3 days and he will be heartbroken and so will we be. at the same time, it is important for us to be away. we need a good shelter for him for 3 days where they will take real good care including giving him his timely medication. Can someone help me please?

Our cat is almost 11 mths and I am told his being a male and with us keeping him inside that he will spray urine all over and try to get out and is in danger of being injured fighting with other male cats when a female cat is nearby and in heat. I want to neuter him-but boyfriend says it seems inhumane and we should just let him out and be a cat. But so far kitty loves inside and is a people person! Is he old enough to be neutered? Does the procedure hurt a lot and what is recovery time?

When a pet food company puts on their packages, "Gourmet flavor" who is determining this? SUre, they might test the food on animals but how do they know if the animals really like the food...? Do they actually have humans trying it or something?

Have you ever wondered this? Just wondering is all. Thanks
