We have had this tank for about a year,with 5 large goldfish and 1 kind of goldfish with the pop out looking eyes.
One fish, (she is about 4 in. long) keeps almost floating to the top of the tank. She seems to be attempting to swim lower, but it seems as if she is full of air. She never did this until a few weeks ago. She reaches the top of the water and goes to one side. It looks as if she is struggling.But, then sometimes she acts fine and swims correctly.There are no signs of injury that I can see.
We did move, but this fish was acting this way beforehand.They are still eating the same food.
Their tank is one of those large octagonal sized ones,almost 3 feet tall, and about 2 feet across.
Is she dying? What can I do to help her?

I have a westie that continuesly barks. I have found out its normal for the breed but what should I do. Every time I try to squirt her she runs from the door, so the only way to get her back inside and stop barking is to offer her a treat. I'm not good at this.

My cat keeps sneezing or coughing (if a cat can cough) constantly now she's even foaming at the mouth. Her breathing sounds horrable aswell. And when she eats she throws ups. What could be wrong with her? It's been constant for a whole week now. Will she need to be put down? I can't afford the vet. I'm just wondering if she might be contagious to my other cats or will she get better. also she pregnant.

I have 2 neutered female pit bulls, one, age 3 (actually a pit bull mix), and one, age 18 months. THey are quite possibly THE MOST wonderful dogs I've ever owned, despite a serious recent problem between the two of them. But, they are AS DIFFERENT as night and day from one another. However, the ONE THING that they BOTH do, is they lick CONSTANTLY!!! They LICK everything! The floors, the walls, me, other people, and, until I recently have had to keep them totally separated from one another, they used to lick each other, too, not to mention themselves of course. I've owned dogs all my life, but NEVER had pit bulls before, and NEVER had dogs who licked like this. I don't mind it - they CONSTANTLY lick my legs, knees, and whatever other parts of me that they can reach at any given moment, except that I DON'T let them lick my face (one of them eats poop). I'm just curious about this. Have others had the same experience? Any explanations?

I support horse rescues, good owners AND horse slaughter. Aside from horse theft, which is already a crime, horse slaughter is good and useful IMO. What do you do when the shelters are full and there are no more good homes willing to take broken or unwanted horses? At least some use is gained from slaughter. Not to mention it is FAR less painfull then years of starvation and neglect in the name of Love trapped in a backlot somewhere. I've seen too much of that(sigh.) Oh, and if even ONE person suggests "letting them all run free"...well I hope they hit a horse on a highway.

Is it ok if I don't do anything and just let her .. manifest? My mum doesn't allow me to bring her a tomcat but I think she's suffering. Will this make her ill?

I go and check on her every once and again.....and she is panting what does that mean? I called the animal hospital and they put me on hold for over 5 minutes so I hung up. Figure I can get a quicker answer here. Thanks
