Pets - 23 November 2006

I see a forest, yellow and red leaves all over the ground, trees starting to look like sticks, birds feeding from my bird-feeder. Sky is grey , the wind is blowing and the neighbours tree looks like it is going to fall on our house.:)

I am so upset, I haven't stopped crying all morning.
I need to talk to someone about it. Has anyone else been through this? Can I email you if you have gone through this?
I am so upset.
The body is in the kitchen, mother says we should put Cindy in the dustbin because they come to empty them this afternoon.

My cat is ten weeks old. I've had her about a week and in all that time I've only heard her meow twice. Once, when I fetched her from the previous owner, and once when the vet spoke to her (it was the same day).

She purrs really loudly when I pet her or brush her but I haven't heard her make any other sounds at all. Sometimes she looks at me and opens her mouth as if to meow but no sound comes out.

Is this normal?

I bought 2 tiger oscars, the orange on them is so vibrant I am convinced the are painted. At the pet shop they had some kind of white fish and they had perfect diamonds on them, pink and blue. The owner was chinese, I asked if they were painted he said yes,,but he couldn't explain how. does anyone know how or what they give the fish to make them so colourful?

I recently got a new dog, a black lab *****, 4 years old. She is so easy to train outdoors and learns amazingly quickly but if I use a raised voice towards her to disipline her if she jumps up or does something wrong, she will cower and pee on the floor. I simply wipe it up and say nothing. Our previous lab didn't do this and I do not know the best way to stop this behavior. She is a very clingy dog and at night we keep her in the kitchen and she wines quietly thus disrupting our sleep, is this because it is new surroundings for her or is there something that can be done to stop it....could some of you kind people out there offer me some advice.

Thanks in advance

I've been searching around for purebred Labs for some time now and have found a good breeder with pups ready soon. They are $900 (AUD), parents have clear hips/elbows, heart certificate, vaccinated, wormed, vet checked, champion bloodlines etc.
Is this a fair price to pay? Is that the going price for a pure Lab (pet quality)?

Our 13 month old female staffie seems obsessive about chasing her tail, even after a long walk, and isn't on her own for any long period of time. She goes round and round and usually manages to catch her tail. Is this normal?

Just wondering if there's any harm in my kitten being and indoor cat. I live near a busy road and there are lots of big dogs around where I live, plus I want to limit her chances of catching fleas and things. Is it cruel, keeping her in?

She has a few fleas left from her old home. She's 11 weeks old, is there a treatment aside from powder thats safe for her? Do frontline do a kitten version?

I also need to know please what injections she needs and if she needs to be wormed.

Thanks very much.

I have 4 dogs. A female Lhasa Apso called Kim (4 years old), female Greyhound called June (1.8 yrs old), a male Bulldog called Tauras (6 years old) and a male Rottweiler called Harold (7 months old). I want to breed all of my dogs together because my friend once bred her Great Dane x German Shepherd and said it was fun so I want to try it too.
All my dogs are pure breed and do not have a disease. I want to breed the Greyhound with Rottweiler and Lhasa Apso with Bulldog.
I do not know anything about breeding and don't know what to do so can you tell me please?
Are they good breeding ages?
How much do I sell the pups for?
How do I create a new AKC recognised breed?
Should I breed?
Why? Why not?

My Lhasa Apso (Kim) has had a litter of 3 pups when she was 1.4 years old so she won't have any problems at all.

All my dogs have great temperaments and are good family dogs. I have never had any complaints about them barking ect.

Thanks for any feedback!!
From Elisabeth.
