Pets - 17 December 2006

OK..I have a live trap I baited with tamales that one of our drivers brought to us. Caught one the first night. Rebaited the trap with more tamales...some of the tamales were eaten..some still there...I just added more, and I know have sardines. Should I go ahead & put the sardines in there now, or wait until later when it begins to get dark. I know there are at least 2 more.

I have had my dog Rosie for 5 years. She's 13 now and is getting really old. She has had 2 heart attacks, and it's getting harder for her to walk. I've talked to my doctor about medication and stuff but we both know that I should really put her down, even though it would kill me. I want to put her out of her misery so what should I do?

My beta girl fish has a sack coming out of her butt that looks like mucus and there are red "balls" in it. My fish is the same color red. My girl and guy fish were once together a few months ago for less then 5 minutes so i doubt she is having babies. Anyone know whats going on?

I just noticed that my shih tzu is keeping is right eye slightly closed. It's watering and it looks odd. It looks a little swollen but i don't think he was poked in the eye by anything. I'm freaking out a little because it doesn't seem to be bothering him at all. Can someone tell me a little about this. Should i take him to the vet, which would be my luck because it's closed today.

my dogs are winter breeds. when it gets really cold out i have a greenhouse that has an attatched furnace that they sleep in. there regular house is insulated and has a door on it. last night i went out to there house when it was about -15 celsius outside and you couldnt even see your breath in their house. is this warm enough? i have tried bringing them in the house but they just sit by the door and whine to get back outside. i spend every spare minute i have with them (usually between 2 and 4 hours a day) and we go to the offleash park at least every other day so the can socialize so they are not neglected. i just want to make sure that they are warm enough.
thanks

I've noticed since yesterday that they are pooping their seed, what is causing this? Well, I'm not exactly sure if it's all 4 of them, or if it's just 1, but I'm worried that they might be hungry!

I have noticed that whenever I put a question on the pet section I always get rude answers. Is it because animal lovers don't have any social skills?

I have 3 cats, 2 are from the same litter. The two are both afraid of everything, especially loud noises. One of them, though, hides behind or under the couch and never comes out. He even pees on the carpet in his hiding place, even though 2 litter boxes are 5 feet away He hisses at my husband and anyone else who tries to approach him. My husband and I are very tired of finding pee under the couch. He's been doing this for almost 2 years now and we've had him checked for bladder infections earlier this year (negative). We don't mind that he hides all the time, we are just tired of the pee everywhere. He pees on clothes (if left on the floor), or a new couch. We tried pet spray, didn't help. Any suggestions would really help!! BTW - he's a tabby, shy of 2 years old. He's neutered but has all 4 claws. The third cat is a girl, 6 years old, we've had her for over a year. (his behavior started before we got her).

Ugh... I've got a husky/chow mix who stays inside. He's about 19 months old now. My mom is ALWAYS letting him jump up on her and she likes to give him "hugs"... I'm ALWAYS CONSTANTLY having to tell her to STOP letting him jump up. I finally said, okay, you can give him a hug once a day, but that's it. And you have to say the word 'hug' so he knows he's allowed to go up. But what does she do? She lets him jump on her all the time /still/. I told her you have to /invite/ him up, he can't just jump on you whenever he feels like it. But when he jumps on her for the Hell of it, she encourages it and hugs in 'n crap. IT"S SO ANNOYING! Then, her and my brother get mad at /me/ b/c they make /me/ look like the bad guy b/c I always have to fuss at my mom to stop letting Steele jump on her. Finally today, she got down on my last nerve, and I told her that she can't EVER let him jump on her again. Not even for a hug. I gave her that privilege to have a hug once a day, and she didn't listen.(cont)
