For at least the last month, he's throwing up almost every day. At first we thought it just had to do with hairball season, but that time has come and gone. Sometimes he's not even really throwing anything up -- it's kind of just saliva that comes out. Often he throws up his kibble, and we've switched it at least once without any positive results. He also gets sort food every day, he doesn't seem to throw that up. The reason why I just asked is because I gave him very small bit of chicken and within 30 minutes he's thrown it up.

He's 10 years old, and this behaviour has never happened before... he seems healthy otherwise, not losing weight or anything - he's large cat. I don't want to take him to the vet over nothing, he's absolutely terrified of leaving the apratment, he'd be so scared that pee all over, he's got A LOT of strange issues, he was a feral cat for the first 6 months of life. This puking around the house is really starting to get infuriating though... any suggestions?

Since I have started babysitting my moms dog, medium size, about 40 pounds, my cat will not come out of a specific room, wont eat or drink, and if she does, she pukes. I think it is because of the stress from a new dog in the house, but I am uncertain. I was wondering if anyone has had any similar cases with their pets. I am going to take her to the vet soon to make sure it isn't something else serious.

I am trying to adopt this Shih Tzu half poodle dog and on their website it's only an email address. No phone number is available. The dog is perfect but I've gotten no response from this organization in the past 4 days. Can someone shed some light?

I gave him a bath this morning and he was fine but just a few hours later my husband asked me what happened that he has a big lump on his back. It's golf-ball sized...feels pretty hard and appeared suddenly. He doesn't seem to mind it much or even notice it is there when touched. I did a google search and found a similar post here from another user with a similar problem w/her dog.
Moose just received his 2nd vaccination this past Tues. (4 days ago)..AND he was microchipped. Could it be a reaction? Anyone who has experienced this, I would love to hear from you. If the bump has not receded, I'll be taking him to the vet on Monday.

What should be the name of my new female chiwawha puppy?
i want a short but unique name. Nothing on the lines of maggie or sam. Somthing unique that everyone would be like wow thats a cool name. I would appreciate it. Ive looked on sites to find names but none catch my eye. So i was hoping everyone else could think of one for me.

Thanks
have a good day

I am assuming it is a reaction to my new baby or his father and her not getting the attention she wants. Should I punish her for deliberatly pissing in front of me?

I just bought two slidders home the other day and one of them maybe has taken about 4 bites of food and the other has not eaten yet. Any tricks i can use to help them? I am guessing they just need to get use to their surroundings. How long can they go without food?

Is there a way to reduce the odor? It's rather bothersome. The mice were put in a fresh cage yesterday and they're already smelling up the room.

Bought my GF one and she is having a hard time teaching him to go outside.He will pee in the bed or anyplace else he happens to be,the lady I got him from never took him outside,she kept him in a kennel that had a mesh type bottom so he could go right there and it just fell through to a little tray with a puppy pad.

Our regular avian vet who we usually have do it, is kind of far away, so we took Paco to our regular vet, who assured us that their vet tech had lots of exotic bird experience. Well, he clipped the feathers so short that they can't even be seen. They look like they are about an inch long! Our regular avian vet leaves a bit of feather, like 2-3 inches. This just seemed extreme to us.
