Help! Advise needed! My cat got attacked badly!

My cat, whom is still young, got attacked by three dogs, and is injured terribly. It pains me to even go on about the details. Right now her one of her spine is fractured and the other dislocated.

She's in deep pain, and is taking medication from the vet. I wonder how long it will recover. It might take months or years. Right now it can't walk at all. It's just lying there. According to the vet, going for operation might cost thousands and i am not sure if i have the money.

I'm thinking about putting it to sleep because its suffering so much. But i'm afraid that i might prevent her from getting to recover. I won't mind if she walks with a limp but at least hopefully it will feel no more pain one day.

Someone please help me. Tell me what to do.

She has a nice bed and a million other places to choose from. Why does she choose this one?

I recently took in a new cat. She was oviously lost or abandend. Declawed and I would assume spayed. I am not sure of the exact age but she does not seem that old. She is a great cat but I am very worried. She vomits everyday. It looks like she vomits up all her food and it has a little bit of hair in it. No blood. I have changed her food, and even tried the indoor formula. I have tried to make an appointment with the vet but, none have openings until February or they are not taking new patients. Until I can get to a vet, does anyone have any idea what it might be or have any suggestions as to what I might do in the meantime? She doesnt seem like she is in any pain, Her litterbox habits are normal, I can't figure what the problem could be.

My one year old dog sleeps on the foot of my bed at night with me and sometimes in the middle of the night her legs and sometimes her whole bod will shake and twitch. Should I be conserned? I don't think she is cold because my room is always warm. I don't know what to do.

My cat Mimi is two years old now. She arrived to my home when she was 6 months. She was toilet trained and pretty good in the past. We give her downstairs for her room.

Just a few months ago, I moved my office downstairs, she started to pood on the carpet. Once she pooded, she knows I will be mad about this. She hide somewhere for a day without eating and drinking. After a while, she thought I might be forgetting it. She meow to me to ask for food again.

After our Christmas holiday absence, she pee on my daughter's loftbed and the next day she poo on my son's bed. Now she's kind of urgly cat ever to do as many bad things as possible and hide herself under a sink for a day, where we couldn't reach her.

The made me so mad every time. My husband alwasy asks me to give her away asap. She has a very nice litterbox with lid. I bought her warm bed and cat condo. She's no longer cute as before. I have no idea what to do about her. Please help me to turn Mimi back to be the nice cat.

I've been seeing this for about a month. It all started ever since I set up the Xmas tree and it looked like my cat's were eating the white tree curtain that covers the base of the tree. It's not worms. Just looks as if their poop is covered in cotton. Could this be a fungus or something? Or do I not scoop it often enough?(If this is the problem I will totally start scooping more frequently. However, I own businesses and it is very hard, my fiance hasn't scooped their poop in 7 months. Her help could really be appreciated though. You know how women are with disgusting things, so I took up the chore.)

But could my cats be sick or something. They have all their shots. Last time they went was back in November. I have to toxedo cats. 7 months old.

Ever Clean Extra Strength Premium Clumping Cat Litter claims to be 99.9% dust free but it puts out more dust than most other brands I have used. It ticks me off that I paid a premium price for that brand. I am still looking for a brand of clumping litter that produces very little dust.

I got a 10 wk old blue fawn full bred pit about 3 weeks ago after begging my wife for 2 years to let me. She is a great puppy but she has a problem with nipping. She nipped my 2 kids and wife on her feet. I know that my wife is thinking "A pitbull bit my kids" and now she is ready to get rid of her. I have tried to explain to her that it is normal puppy behavior but she is not hearing me. She thinks that she is going to attack our kids because she is a pitbull. She says "We have 2 other dogs that never bit anyone, why did she?" Over the time i have had her got relatively close with her and I dont want to get rid of her. I dont know which one of us is over reacting.

Im a guy, I have had my cat for about 7 years since she was a kitten. She hates to be on my lap(I can pick her up and put her there but she jumps down after about 30 secs) but every time I have a girl over she will jump on their laps by herself and go to sleep. She only likes to lay on my feet or about 3 feet away from me. I know she likes me because she follows me around and loves to be pet. But what is it with only wanting to be held by girls?
