Yesterday one of my goldfish died. The fish was stuck on the filter part that pulls the water to be filtered... and yesterday took me a while to figure out if my fish was really dead. Today I woke up with another of my goldfish stuck in the same place. It seems that they are not too strong to swim out of it. So, I turned off the system, and tryed to feed it. This fish is not dead. But the sucking system made it bent! Now he is having problems swimming and is trying to hide his face on the small rocks from the botton. He does not want to eat. I used my chop stickes to guide the food to his mouth... Can he survive? Is him hurt? Is him sofering? What am I supposed to do? He tries to swim a little, but them he goes back to the rocks and hide his face... I am so sad... I only have two fishs left... I bought my fishes a week ago... Somehow they all are dying :-(.

Does anyone know why my dog always tips over his bowl so the dry food falls out, then eats the food off the floor?

At times instead of going "Meow!". Max will make these noises, that to me sound, like he's chatting with you, instead of, meowing at you.

My 1 year old dog chews everything BUT his toys.. i buy him rawhide bones and bring sticks from outside but he prefers my shoes, cardboard boxes and plants... He did the same thing when he was a puppy but we thought he outgrew it because he stopped for a while. is this a behavioral thing?

My beautiful fluffy lovey cat is at the vet, she's been there since yesterday. She's diabetic and her kidneys and liver are giving out. She's about 13 years old. It came on suddenly. As of a couple days ago, she was fine, and then she just stopped eating and drinking, so we took her to the vet. She's on an I/V to rehydrate her, but the prognosis is not good. I love her SO MUCH! I'm praying she'll pull through, but trying to prepare for the worst.

I have a miniature schnauzer and was wondering at what age the ears are cropped at and if there is an age when you shouldn't do it anymore.

He had a great home, pleanty of food & water. I noticed he was very slow moving when we got him but I had no idea he was sick. His slow movement was the only symptom he showed. Does anybody know what it could have been? What kills a hamster who looks fine, just moves really slow and deliberate?

earlier today ( maybe 20 30 min. ago) a bird i had never seen before flew against my window and was pertching on the screen. i took a few pictures. i tried to get a picture of its back but it flew away when i tried to open the other window. it's probably one thats been identified before i've just never seen it before ( i live in North Texas, but just outside the city...so country i guess :) ) does anyone know where i could go to find out what kind of bird it is by the picture?

just in case it :

has a Golden brown-orange head with a red stripe on the back of its head. it also has that golden brown-orange color underneath its wings and a little on the tail with white in the middle of its tail and black on the tip. it has a black collar looking line on the top of the breast and the rest is whiteish brown with black spots all over it. i guess by the little bit i can see of the back its kind of a dapple color of brown and white.

hope that helps.

My 3 month old puppy ate just fine before we had her fixed 2 weeks ago. After we had her fixed I guess she thought she was going to starve (we couldn't give her food 12 hours before the surgery) and she wouldn't eat for about a day after surgery. Then, she just started eating her food so fast and wouldn't chew it and would vomit. So we had to feed her rice and boiled hamburger meat for about a week. Well, she is keeping her food down fine but she eats SO fast!! She never chews it. And also when there is food out she doesn't even know anything else exsist. She use to not do this!! Has anyone else had this problem and do you know how to fix it!! Help Please!!

Besides mice, what is the weirdest thing your cat ever drug up? Mine had a green garden snake.

I do not want them to become lazy but it would be nice if they would sleep more at night. They are getting chopped next week and I don't know what to expect.
