I need to know because his back teeth are getting a lot of tartar on them and his front teeth are getting yellow. Would a baking soda-paste (water and baking soda) be safe for his back teeth and not irratiate him????? I use a q-tip and some water know, but that's helping him that much...HELP!!!!

I know this sounds ridiculous but my 5 year old male cat's upper "fang" teeth protrude past his bottom jaw pretty far. It is actually making indentions in his lower gums. I have had several cats in my lifetime but never had one with this problem. I just want to be sure it is normal or if I need to have something done about them. By the way, he eats dry food and doesn't seem to be bothered by the long length.

There are so many people out there wanting to breed or who already have that are on YA asking what to do next. When you tell them that they shouldn't breed they get defensive. Yet when a question is asked about why they breed....none have a good answer?

I think it's because they know they shouldn't be breeding but just don't care. What do you guys think?

They are both male and have been together for a long time...if one dies should I let the other see/smell/"investigate" his body? I know this is sometimes true with bonded rabbits but was wondering if it's the same with guinea pigs? He did die from an illness and the vet told us to keep them seperate until he got better (if). Would the illness still be transferable and therefore dangerous to the healthy one? Thanks.

I have a 6 1/2 year old male cream tabby. One of his favorite activities is to groom me or my husband. Is this just a friendly act or is he trying to assert authority?

Why, when people ask about breeding, EVERYONE says dont be a breeder, go to the shelter and get an animal.
Obviously these people are doing research to decide if they want to be a breeder or not.
And if everyone went to the shelter, there would be no animals left (obviously) and then there would be no one to actually breed the purebreeds and they would die of extinction.
I am just sick of seeing "go to the shelter to get an animal". We all know that they are there.

My cockatiel and my conure live in a large cage together and get along. I noticed the cockatiel layed 3 eggs and warms them everyday. I have also noticed that she shoos away the conure, which I believe is a male, when he comes near the eggs. Should I leave the male in the cage or take him out? Also, I'm very new to breeding birds and don't know anything about it. So some tips would be helpful. Thanks. =]

thanks to everyone who answered the last question i wanna know if two male unneutered pits can get along all their lifes? i dont wanna neutered them because ive heard they get fat and lazy and it affects their normal growth because when you neuter them you take away their testosterone and they become funny looking so ive heard it is better if you dont neuter or wait till they are 2 years old and i dont want a female because i wouldnt want to spaye her either and i dont wanna deal with a female in heat and cause i dont want to breed either. thank you for your help.

Ok, so I have this dog that I got from the SPCA. We're her 3rd home. She's Part Pit and part beagle, never listens, very hyper and at this point seems impossible to train. And I need to teach her how to behave, and fast. My father says I have to get rid of her. Wich will just break my heart.

So my question is..does anyone know any books I could get that would help me out. Or maybe some advice of their own? I could really really use it.

I've had my male parakeet for almost a year and bought him a mate a few months ago. I came home tonight and found the female on the bottom of the cage dead. I took her out of the cage and buried her. When I came back he was pacing all over the cage and chirping really loud which is extremely unusual for him. I took him out and have been holding him and letting him roam around my room like he used to when he was alone but I'm worried about him because of his behavior. My mom said we'll buy him a new mate tomorrow but I don't know if that's too soon or not. Is it bad for a parakeet to lose its mate? I know they aren't love birds but his behavior is worrying me. (it's 6:36pm here so...no pet stores and no vets are open so I can't call them)
