Pets - 9 December 2006

I am house-sitting a 11yrd male cat. He is mostly an indoor cat but goes out 1-2 a day (never for very long), depending on what time I get home from work. I've noticed his litterbox is never very dirty even when he's been inside for long periods of time. I cleaned it today and there were only 2 clumbs of pee and no poo (I cleaned it previously on Wed.& today's is Sat.) I am pretty sure he's not doin business anywhere inside the house, but I'm concerned that he's not going often enough and something might be wrong with him. Any advice/suggestions before I schedule a vet appointment?

I have 3 green parakeets, 1 blue, 1 yellow (rare) && 1 white.

The green and blue parakeets are male while the yellow and white are female.

Anyway, one of my bird's I think my white one is making a high-pitched noise much like a common sparrow or some sort of bird like that.

She has been eating alot more and is tired more. I think she's mated I'm not sure.

1 of my green male's has been er...'feeding' her alot with his own beak.

Is she pregant, or sick?

OK, suggest some Christmas names for puppies. My show ***** is due on December 27th. I might go with a Christmas theme as part of their registered name. So, I would need suggestions for males and females. (German Shepherd's by the way)

I heard it was the Border Collie (Sheep Dog). It was described as the Einstein of the dog world.

When possible, I would like to donate to pet owners or animal rescuers who may need that extra bit of help from time to time in caring for their animals.
Is there a place where I can do this?

My dog always sneezes and I am pretty sure she is allergic to dust, is that possible?

Also, she chews on her one paw constantly, so much that sometimes it turns red and the vet said it was allergies and to giver her Benadryl (which didn't work) Anyone else have the same problem?

He was adopted 2 years ago, so it's hard to know what training he had as a puppy.

My pet cat has sadly passed away. I have decided that it is a shame to bury her, so have decided to eat her. My neighbour( i think he is muslim) gave me the idea as he said he ate his dog.Well what i want to know is it legal, and also is it safe. Any recipe ideas will be much appreciated, but she will not fit in the microwave. Thanks

i dont mean the kids that pull their tails and chase them - I just mean any small children. the first time a small child came to my house my cats ran for the hills in terror, although they havent had any bad experiences with children. my friend said the same thing about hers. Is it cos small children are dog-sized??!
