When I bought my house, the former owner told me that although the garage is filled with cockroaches, they would move out as soon as they could find a new place to live. That was well over a year ago. I tried adding a bunch more cockroaches but that didn't work. I am running out of ideas. Should I add more cockroaches??

My dog is a 7 week old terrier mix but we think she is part Akita and german shepard to very smart dogs. I got her at this animal rescue shelter they were nuts i guess you can say because she was spayed when she was only 6 weeks of age. We have been best friends ever since. What do you think about my dog??? What can you tell me about your's???

ps. Her name is Saddie

This cat lie's in waiting. My friends dog trotted past a bush and the cat attacked the dog. His one eye was in shreds and his nose was torn open. Now my point is would that cat be destroyed, like if a dog attacked a cat it would probably be put to sleep. Am i wrong?? Just curious. TKU.

I have a 10G fresh water tank that I will stock with around 4-7 small schooling fish such as guppies or tetras.

I would like one larger (not too large, mind you, but beefier than guppies, tetras, danios, etc) fish that doesn't require "brothers and sisters" of the same species.

Any suggestions? I'm aware of the 1" / gallon rule, and I don't plan to violate it. I'd like a fish that is large enough to stand out in a crowd of guppies or tetras.

Thanks!

I have looked up the breed but I need some personal experience with people who have or currently do actually own one. Preferrably not someone who just knows someone who owns one. Here's my situation: I have been asked to foster care a 2 year old Pomeranian male for a family that is moving states and cannot move the dog just yet. I will need to foster care for him for about 2 months until they get settled and can come back for him. I won't ship animals so my terms are they have to personally pick him up and drop him off. I hate the idea of animals being shipped, just a personal preference. But I have 2 Lab puppies (18 weeks old), 2 cats, and 3 kids ages 3, 9, and 11.
Are Pomeranians good with small kids?
Are they good with other dogs?
Are they good with cats?
Are they likely to bite and snip like many other small breeds?
Do they bark a lot?
Are they nervous?
Do they chew even at 2 years old?
What should I be prepared for if I decide to do this?
More info............

I have a 10 month old shepher/hound mix. when we first got him he ate his food fine[he was 3 months old ] no it seems like no matter what kind of food we give him he refuses to eat it. I have even tried to leave the food down for 2 days to see if he would at least nibble . The weird thing is if I put the cat dish down he goes right for it and devours the whole thing . So I tried to give him cat food[I know it is not good for him but I was desperate] but he wouldnt even touch it because it was in his bowl. We have tried wet ,dry and mixing . When we first tried wet he would eat it but now he is back to his old ways . I dont want him to starve so we give him what ever we eat [Iknow that is bad also] . There is nothing wrong with his teeth or gums so I know its not that. Some one please help I m wasting money on food every week on a dog that wont eat it.

My cat is constantly scratching his one ear to the point where it knocks itself over from scratching so hard. You can tell it is really bothering him and I thought that he could have earmites and just thought I would check into it before I took him to the vet.

My boxer is a clown. I have a 2 1/2 year old male boxer and he loves his attention. He'll take this big tug rope we have and hit himself with it, then act like it insulted him and growl at it. He also runs around the house top speed when he's bored, and he'll "talk" when he wants to go outside. He's our brindle prince. How about your boxer?

I currently have a 3 month old female APBT laying on the blanket next to my chair. She's a black brindle sweetheart! Very active little critter she also is. She's wonderful with kids and they make her do the "excited pee." She played with a 1 year old baby girl and never even got in her face! She's also played with a 3 year old, two 2 year olds, and two 5 year olds! She's also been to a doggie day care where she was the perfect puppy when she played with the other dogs. Who else is a PROUD Pit Bull parent!?

I am fostering a mom cat and her kitten, which I plan on adopting both of them. I have had them for 3 weeks now. I can't get mom to leave my room. I also have 2 dogs which all get along and actually kiss each other. Night is a problem, for the kitten and cat play and chase one another, jump in the bath tub, run all around the room and even jump on Dad while he is trying to sleep. How can I get her to come out of my room and enjoy the rest of the house. She came out a few times and walks down the hall, but then runs back under my bed. Any advice is wonderful

I need to take my ball python to the vet tomorrow and I'm not sure how to properly get her there. It's VERY cold out and I need to keep her warm. I also need it to be easy to put her in and out. I've heard of putting them in pillow cases and a then a cardboard box, but I'm worried that'll make her temperment go down{very friendly now} or stress her out. Is there any place that sells battery operated heat pads...if they exist? Thanks to all!
