I have a 1 year old female pitbull/shepard mix. When she's in heat she is totally infatuated with my 14 year old female neighbor. She won't leave her alone and cries when she leaves my house. However when she is not in heat she growls at her and keeps her distance. Why is this?????

Could this mean she wasn't spayed completly, or is she just horny? She keeps trying to hump my dads leg. Or maybe shes just accesive compulsive?

My inddor cat gets some outside time. But we always have to be careful, because he chases all the other neighbour hood cats and is always in a fiught. If we take him to my cousins, he always hisses at there cats. He scares ever cat away, i cant let him out of the house or one day some other bigger cat will really hurt him!

i have a pom that was hit by a car about 6 years ago, he has to be diapered and he has a wheelchair. He has notneeded pain meds thus far, and he acts comfortable and is so very happy. A freind from my rescue group called me when he came in, they were going to put him down eventhough he was happy and not in any pain. HIs only problem is that he needs much more care than a "normal" dog....
but the older he gets the more i wonder if i am doing the right thing for him, how do i know when it is time to let him go?

I need advice about what I should do about my dog. My wife and I got our 7yr old dog 5 years ago from an animal shelter. Our dog has serious separation anxiety. Whenever we leave, she destroys our house, including urinating on our beds and scratching windows/doors to the point where her paws bleed. Whenever we are home, she wants to do nothing but sleep. We have tried many solutions including long walks, exercise in a fenced-in yard, obedience training, and even medication prescribed by a vet. Nothing has worked. In fact, she seems to get worse in age. We have had no other option than to crate her during the day. Recently, the dog has started urinating on our bed while we sleep, but we cannot crate her at night since we do during the day. My wife and I both have jobs in which we must work 10 hrs per day, and we have activities after work that keep us busy. These are commitments we cannot give up. We love her very much, but do not know what to do. Any suggestions?

my older cat sleeps like a dead animal, she doesn't move for hours. the kitten tosses and turns when she sleeps and will sleep halfway falling off of a piece of furniture and sometimes will fall off. is this because of thier different sleeping patterns or just because they are a different age?

i watched on the news a mob of iraqi's trying to destroy a statue of saddam with their flip flops, thought this might make a good business venture.

I'm retireing from breeding horse due to a downward change in life's circumstances and ned to find free ways of finding new homes for 2 pg mares and a stallion, All Appaloosas and an older Arabain who is double registred arabain and pinto. None have been broke to ride. I had expected to keep until they passed away. My heart is breaking as contemplate my life without them. The mares would be easy to train tho so I'd be happy to sell them cheap to forever homes to some young horse -crazy family. I hope you guys here can help me find good forever homes for my babies

I will be getting a kitten very shortly. I have heard how good Royal Canin dry cat food is (kibbles). Having read an answer on another question regarding cats, someone has said that cats should not be fed on dry food alone, they need canned food. Is this true, or just that person's preference/opinion? I know of several cat owners who give their pets IAMS etc, with a treat every now and again of Tuna or chicken livers. I have been told to make sure my cat will have plenty of fresh water, if feeding dry food. I could ring Royal Canin to ask them but feel they could be biased. What is the general opinion of all cat lovers please?

This is a follow up to a previous question.

I would like opinions/stories about a dog litter box.

I asked about ideas for my problem with my dog eliminating in the house and even though all of the suggestions were wonderful, I have tried them all.

I am considering a doggie litter box. Has anyone tried these? How to you feel about them? Did they work? In your opinion, do you think it would work in my situation.

I want to have it as a second option for my dog. So he would always poop in the same spot. I would still continue to walk him and my other dog as often as I do now. (Every 4 hours 6:30 am - 10:30 pm)

is this just his nerves? Tinkerbell hasn't even been here a week yet, but Abbers is a siamese, and they are known to have nervous dispositions, I am just worried about him--would you take him to the vet right away?

I'm sick of spending $1.50 each week for a mouse for my snake so I got 2 live mice and am going to kill(humanly gassing them) the babys and feed them to the snake. So far I spent $3.99 each for the adult mice and should get a litter a month with 3-12 babys.

I have kept tropical fish for a few years with no problems.All my fish were healthy until a few weeks ago i brought some new white gravel,which i rinsed well, although when i put water in my tank it did give the water a white tinge, which cleared in a few hours.I also brought a couple of new fish, from a pet shop i always use. my fish have all died gradually since, apart from 1 zebra danio. The dead fish all went a white colour, even my silver shark. (which was very big) I am gutted. was it the gravel? or maybe the new fish i got had a disease?

She currently has a skin infection which is being treated with Fuciderm cream and Baytril (antibiotics) 0.25ml. She seems fine in her self but was wondering wether the sneezing and UTI could be a side effect from the antibiotic as they only started when she started the Baytril. Oh she has also had an injection as a precaution for mites.
