Pets - 16 January 2007

We have had her for 6 weeks, and she would eat 3-4 times a day and eat alot of food, i mean like 2 1/2 cups at a time. But now she is 3 mo old and she will only eat 2x a day and then she will pick at her food. She wont eat all of it, or even most of it. Should I be worried? I mean you cant see her ribs and she weighs 16 lbs. Her pics are here so i will prove she isnt starved or obese. Serious answers only please.

My little Tenterfield Terrier (mini foxy X jack russell I think) manages to get bitten by nasty black ants. Our yard has thousands of them unfortunately. She suffers a lot of pain and limps holding her foot up and licks it heaps to help in the healing. She even holds her paw up when doing a poo!! :) What can I give her to releive her pain. I've tried running cold water over it but alas she still suffers badly. I'm training her to look for ants on her feet with the emphasis on the word "ANTS!!" and she is smelling her feet all the time to check if they are trapped under her paws. But despite all this still gets bitten often. Has anyone else had a similar problem and how was it solved? I look forward to your reply.

Okay so ive had my mice for a few weeks now, I've bough Bi-odor to controll their odor (ps. their male). Well i live with my bf and and my bfs mom and supposivley she can smell them throughout the house when i cant even smell them in my room, but she gripes about it 24/7 like she is the most immature person ever seriously and she makes a big deal out of everything.. Does getting them fixed take that odor away or would it be a waste of time since mice dont live long anyways, she said if the odor isnt gone they have to go, and thats basicly not an option for me! I clean there cage about 2 times a day and i clean out thier wheels and replace their bedding once a day i mean what else can they do i even have the shampoo and fragrance spray for them .. What else can i do?? i dont want to just let them go they are tamed animals they would probley die out in the wild, & no one wants them more or less i dont trust anyone else with them what can i do please help.. No dumb answers please.

My puppy has/had tape worms, he got his medicine today, but he slept in our bed last night, and when we woke up we saw the little rice grains of it ( I guess part of the worms?), I've sprayed lysol and cleaned but afraid they're in the carpet or something, what can we do?

My puppy is 4 months old and is about 98% house-trained. I work during the day and I still have to come home at lunch to let her out and feed her, but I want to know about how old she will have to be before she can be left alone all day.

(She's a golden retriever/chocolate lab mix and is really smart!)

i have an american bull dog. She's 2 and a half. one particular trick she does is "walk" where she balances on her hind legs, sometimes takes steps or hops forward. (i usually have a treat in my hand to guide her). well...the other day she snatched the treat out of my hand without doing the trick and i made a loud gasping sound bc im not used to her "cheating"--she's a very good obedient dog. Anyway, she immediately cowered apologetically when i gasped and now she wont "walk" for me anymore. she'll do it for my boyfriend...just not me. i could be offering her peanut butter and she'll dart off and run away when i say "walk." I'm afraid i've caused irreparable harm...what can i do?!

Why does my cat like to sleep on my back every night? She will curl up on my back and sleep all night. I am sure a lot of cats do this but why is it?
Also, a wierd thing she does, every night when I turn off the TV to go to sleep she will get up out of bed, go eat and then come back to bed. Even if she is in a deep sleep she will wake up when the TV goes off, then go eat.
I am just curious.

I took him to one place that I thought abused him. The first time I took him there he did great. The next time he didn't do so well and I just thought possibly he had a bad day. The third time he was biting them and acting up at home.

Not like him at all so I called a different groomer who told me that they were noted for abusing animals and convinced me that she would do a much better job and he would get over it.

After about another year he is not any better, he is bad with the groomer and then bad at home for about a week.

I talked to a different groomer who has explained to me why he is behaving the way he is and said that she knew the second groomer and she probably wasn't any better than the first. She is going to let me stay with him while she grooms him but my question is will he ever get over this and if so how long do you think it should take?

I know its kind of a long question but any suggestions would be great.

I got two baby budgies a month ago at around 8 wks - now they are 11wks. One of them had this muted green soft poop from the begining - but no other symtoms. The other one is very normal. A couple days ago this turned into runny poop. Is Eating and Drinking Well. She now rests more then before but does play a bit inbetween. Still looks healthy other then those two things.

They both came from a Hobby Breeder and her birds looked VERy healthy and well cared for. They are almost twice the sz of my 5 months Pet store ones. They were the 1st and 2nd born. Are there any natural things I could try ?

Should I be worried about a dangerous alergy? She was very sick with the second bite and she swelled very seriously. I plan to call and vet and get the exact benedryl dose for her as she is very small, 3lbs.
I have been warned that each reaction will be increasingly worse.

We had tape in her cage I don't know if she ate some, but when I came home she was lying on her back, breathing very heavy and some white stuff was in her eyes. When she died her eye kinda deflated... Then she started rolling around on the floor over and over again. She had babies and was a tan fancy mouse. Help! And thanks!

I have a 10 month old female rottweiler, and she is scared of objects like bikes, and things that make a lot of noise. She gets scared when i drag the kitchen chair on the kitchen floor. She is also scared of the ocean and the big waves. But the funny thing is when someone comes into my house she barks, but I don't know if she would do anything to protect me. I guess she realy doesn't need to do anything, just being a rottweiler that bars is enough. Will continueing to showing her things like bikes, and the ocean help calm her fears? And how do I get her to stop being so nervous?

I am getting horses soon and want to pasture them during the day and keep them in at night (cold). I also have invested in automatic feeders to feed the horse several times for when I'm at work or sleeping but the question is whether I can feed the horses grains at night since they will not be in their stalls during the day to get to their concentrate food. 24 hours a day they'll have access to field or hay but I just don't know how to give them their daily ration of grains without restricting their access to open pasture during the day when I'm at work. I work 8 hours a day, not including a 30 minute commute, so I am there only in the morning and evening....but 100% on the weekends.

My Cat had 4 baby kittiens this past Friday, funny thing is that my mom keeps telling me not to touch the baby kittiens because the mother cat wont feed them anymore. I know it doesnt sound realistic, but lately she dosent like spending time with them and they are crying because they're hungry. Is it possible that my mom is right?

I noticed 3-4 furry-looking dots on each side of my fantail. Is this normal for fish? If it is...what does it mean?

There is cat urine in my carpet. I previously treated the area with a product made for urine odors. All this did was add another odor to the existing cat odor. Today I treated the area with vinegar and water and put a fan on the area to dry. The odor is still there, but slightly better. I pulled the carpet away from the padding and the stain is a lot bigger than I thought. New carpet is not an option. What can I do to get rid of this odor? The stain is in my 2 year olds bedroom.

I have freshwater fish since today and wanted to double check what the store recommended. I have a few tetras, guppies, a beta fish and a few others, all kind of small and easy to tend to.

The store told me to keep the temperature at 78 degrees and the light on only during the night, and not the day.

I was also told that the PH should be set to 7.

Is that information correct?
