I am lucky enough to own one of the last remaining Fila's in the country and i have been searching high and low to find others , but I am usually dissapointed as I never find a dog that is at best half fila. My dog is getting old and is out of the original dogs imported into Cairns. I wonder if any one else knows of any others. Would luv to hear from the wider community

Happy New Year everyone? Remember I asked about a question about my brother's two cats and my cat in August 2006, and he wants to try it at my home. Well it happened this New Year's Weekend. What does it mean when a cat makes a "mournful" whine, when she sees another cat who meows in cat talk? My mom and I wants to know, since my cat's making the "mournful" whine and never done it before. Even with the door closed and a gate in front of her with bubble wrap, before she met one of my brother's cat, she made the same sound at night. Sweet Pea always wagged her tail. Does it mean she's lonely for some cat companionship or something else? She did hiss one, when my mom thought she squeezed her, when she's in her arms. BTW, the other cat is hiding still behind the drawer in my old bedroom with boxes. Any cat experts who knows what it means in cat talk would be deeply appreciated, and might be awarded 10 points.

My almost six month old Chihuahua is displaying strange behaviour, she had a little bit of diarrhea today and was very upset at her own behaviour as she is already toilet trained. This evening she has wanted constant cuddles, and her tail is all the way between her legs and flattened. I am really worried about this change in a normally happy and active girl. Could this be heat coming on, or should I be more worried?

He will hug my feet and bite my toes. What is going on in his head? Is it just play?

I have 4 cats.They seem to come to me.My oldest had a mother and my youngest had a mother(raised by their mommys)however the other 2 didnt.One was found at about 4 months (stray) and the other was abandoned and I raised the whole litter until 8 weeks.I bottled fed them and all.That one in particular is very sweet but doesnt like to be touched unless its just her belly(on her terms) so I think its because they didnt have the nurture of their mothers..What do you think?

5 months ago I rescued a dog from the street. I treated him for diseases, trained him, etc, all in the purpose of finding him a home, because we have a cat, and we are in a flat. The cat never accepted the dog and we kept the rooms in the flat separated at all times. Plus, the dog was a large dog and he needed space, which we didn't have. On the balcony he kept barking, so we had to keep him in a room. Finally, we found a nice family with a house with a garden who took him. The kids love him and play with him a lot. He also loves them, although he cried when we went to visit him and he wanted to come with us. The only objective problem with them is the possibility to lose the dog, if they don't lock the garden door, or in the holidays, and I think they are not very careful, because they have already lost another dog this way. The problem is for the last two days that we gave the dog I keep seeing him in my sleep and crying when i am awake. I miss him too much. Should I get him back?

Do you or people you know try to treat cats more naturally ? I'm trying to assess how popular this is now in the usa.

Do you read pet food ingredients or feed real foods?

Do you give yearly vaccines, use natural alternatives for illness?

Do you try to limit or avoid using strong chemical household cleaners, pesticides, flea treatments?

I have a Boxer puppy that I absolutely adore and I've only had her a week. However I'm concerned about her behavior being way to aggressive for a puppy. I know that all puppies go through the chewing and biting phase but this pup seems "mean". I've had animals all my life and know basically this is a phase she'll go through like all puppies, however I haven't had a puppy that gets more aggressive with every attempt to stop this behavior. I've done every thing I know and everything that's been suggested by the "serious" answers I've received from here on the question I asked a few days ago. I know these things do take time and believe me I want to give her all the time I can, however I am so worried about this puppy and her behavior that I'm wondering if this can be something she was born with like a "mean streak".

My kitten is 10 months old, and roams the house crying each night. I make sure he has plenty of water/food/clean litter/toys, but he whines like he is emotionally sad. What can I do to help him calm down, and give me a full night sleep?

disturbing the male too. Both of them begin to hit the cage walls, until I get up to put some light on. Do they dream or have a nightmare?

Ok before I get people yelling at me that I'm cruel to animals I just want to say that I am serious about this. Don't get me wrong I LOVE ALL ANIMALS AND WOULD NEVR HARM THEM IN ANY WAY. I was just curious if it was possible if it would survive in it, Also curious if it would survive in milk also? I know its a stupid question but I was haveing a conversation about it with my boyfriend and he thinks that they wouldn't survive. I'm still on the fence and I wanted to bring in some outside opinions. And like i said before I would never harm any animals so I would never experiment this on a fish, I'm just useing my head on this one if that makes any sence. If you could let me know that would be great...and I want serious answers and no one yelling at me saying I'm cruel because I'm not. Just very curious...
