Please, no idiots answer this like my other post, just people who own snakes and know about them thanks.

I heard there are ways of stopping bitting and scratching to the snake, how is this done?

I have a year-old male neutered cat, and recently got a 3 month old unneutered (he will be neutered next month) male kitten. I'm confused as to why my older cat starts standing on the kitten and kneading on his body, and then grabs the scruff on the little guy's neck, and continues kneading away. It almost looks like some mating ritual, which is strange because the older guy is neutered. The little guy puts up with it for a little bit and then protests and runs away. This happens at least once a day, while I am home. I have no idea what my older cat is doing and why. Anyone have an idea? I know male dogs mount each other to show dominance, is that possibly what my cat is doing?

I have a tube connected to a pipe (plastic) that is used for sucking the water out of a fish tank when changing the water, alge has built up in the pipes of this. Does anyone have a suggestion for cleaning it?

Also anyone have a good solution to cleaning off alge off rocks in the tanks? i can't use scrubbing brush, don't have sucky fish, or would like to use specials.

Thanks, sorry for spelling, can't remember how to spell alge.

I recieved a 4 year old yorkie from a friend of mine who breeds them. This one was returned to her because the family who bought him no longer had a place to keep him and wanted her to find him a good home. The thing is, unlike his litter mates, he is the least likeliest yorkie I have ever seen.

He is a blued yorkie, and stands about 13-14 inches in height, weighs 16.5 lbs. (not over weight), and his ears droop.

Any one else ever see one like this?

And their son is afraid of dogs. He tells everyone that he was "mauled" by a dog, but he doesn't have any scars or anything like that. And, I kind of like this guy... My dog, Bear, is being put in his kennel while we eat, but afterwards I want to let him out, he's kind of like a brother to me. How do I do this without scaring this guy?

I was seriously wondering this as my boyfriend and I got a kitten and he was born in april so he isnt quite a year old yet, but anyway, I got him a cat stocking (which is filled with toys) and gave him about 6 at the same time to see which one he would like best. He played with them for about 30 seconds then walked away. Is too many too much?

I'm not sure what to think of pit bulls, evry one i know tells me that they were bred only to kill and that they should be killed off. Why would they say such a thing?

When he does walk he drags one of his legs. I wanna know if He needs immediate attention or can it heal on it's own?
His tail is also broken. He got out and got into a fight, obviously.
Please tell me what you know, I'm very concerned about him and my carpet.

I've noticed with my two dogs that they are both rather protective of their tails. They do not like their tails to be touched. If you touch it, they will try and tuck it between their legs and move so you can't touch it. Is this common among dogs? Cats normally seem to use their tails to interact with people... Sort of taunting you with them for attention... It also seems like cats have more conscious control over their tales then dogs do. Have other people noticed this and is it true?

My dog is basically a good dog. BUT, we currently have a 8 month old that is crawling around. He loves Gizzy however Gizzy trys to detour around him but sometimes Austin grabs hair or something. Gizzy bit him one time on forehead. We are scared he will hurt the baby. We tried to give him to a good home but he got very angry with new owners growling and biting we had to go get him. HE hasn't acted up sense he has been home. But does anyone have any suggestions on what we might do to prevent him from hurting baby. When Gizzy bites he is strong and it hurts. He isn't neutured and was wondering if this might help.
