Ok this is pertaining to the story i relate yesterday, its about my cat who was diagnosed with virus and fever. I brought my cat to the vet yesterday after he refused to eat and drink, and his body is getting skinnier. So I brought it to the veterinary centre yesterday night, and the doc confirmed my cat has been diagnosed with fever and virus inside his stomach, the doc claimed that my cat probably caught the virus and fever from other cat which live together with me after the doc took some blood sample from my cat. The doc asked me to leave my cat with them so they can drip my cat and analyse its behavior. I have left my cat there for 1 day now. ok, here is my question and i really need your advise because I'm not from a rich family so I can't really afford expensive medication fee for my cat, one night of stay already costs me $120 including the dripping. Is it neccessary to drip my cat & let its to stay overnight at the vet when my cat can be cured with antibiotic pills at home

She has a red rash on her lower belly area and then every where else on her skin she has like a red spot/bump type thing... what could have caused this? She is a golden retriever.

I am bringing my horse to a show this weekend and the conditions in my area aren't too good (snowy, sorta rainy, cold). What are the safest things for me to keep in mind while at this show and trailering?

There is this stray cat that has been wondering out, outside for the past few months. He is homeless, and all the time outside in this cold weather. He is now starting to come by me, and everytime he does, I really feel bad for the cat and want to take him in. But I already have 2 big dogs and a female cat who is by the way fixed.

What should I do? Should I maybe take him in and maybe take him up to the vet and if he is chipped they can tell me whether or not he has or had owners? Or should I just ignore the cat and leave him be? What would you do in this situation? I really feel bad for him having to be out in this very cold weather with no where to go for shelter or to be warm? Please help me? What should I do?

Another cat question for you all. Okay so I'm confused at something that happens when I get scratched by my cat. Whenever I get cut from him, it bleeds for a couple seconds (like any other normal cut or scratch) then after a couple minutes it puffs all up and I get bumps all around the area where I was scratched. This time however I noticed that some kind of clear liquid was spewing out from where the actual cut was made (instead of blood this time) and that's never happened before. Usually I just get the puffyness and then it goes away later that night. Anyone got any ideas?

One of my 2 4 month old cats just vomited on the carpet. This is the first time either of them have done that, and I don't even know which cat did it. It looked like regurgitated wet cat food, although they hadn't had wet food since last night. However, both of them are running around, playing, wrestling, and acting normal, and I have watched both eat some of their food and drink water since the incident. Is vomiting once considered a situation that a cat needs to go to the vet right away for, or only if it continues?

I have had my ball python Eden now for about 3 weeks, the first time I held em' was the day I got him/her...... and I got bit. Now I try and hold em' and it seems like I'm gonna get bit again..... I keep his/her belly full, cage clean and warm, everything that it needs..... but whenever I reach in to pick it up, it acts as though I'm trying to hurt it and starts goin into attack mode. As the owner I would like to hold em' sometimes and not be paranoid.....I put on gloves and hold em' for a few seconds at a time but i do it inside the tank so he/she can just chill on my hand for a minute then go where it pleases. I just wanna be able to hold it without being bit....what should I do?
