We have flying ants in our apartment but we also have a dog and a cat. How do you get rid of the ants without hurting our pets?

Before I had my son I was not allergic, and now I am. I was also away from home for a long time. My mom got a new cat but it was not working out so she gave him to me and now I feel like a leaky faucet, and I haven't even been touching the poor cute little thing. I don't want to have to give him up. Is there something I can do, or will my allergies eventually adapt? Thanks!

So about a month and a half ago I started a "fishless" cycle by just feeding the tank on and off for awhile. I've been testing it daily and everything's the same as when I started. Nitrates and nitrites are low, PH is pretty high, ammonia is low. There has been no spike in any of my readings. The water has been sorta cloudy for about two weeks now, but still no change in readings. Should I add fish to finish the cycle? Any ideas?

FYI its a 5 gallon tank, freshwater.

We have a cat with bad breath, but -- well, our cat's breath smells like cat food, really.

She eats good quality food and some dental/breath treats, but -- still not great. I haven't had cats for very long, so figuring out how bad is bad for a cat, if that follows, isn't easy. Would there be a sort of decaying odour if there were dental problems involved?

She is not the sort of docile thing who'll easily submit to a tooth brushing, too...

My cat uses the litter box, yet she never covers her mess up with the litter. She has enough clean litter in her box to cover her mess but I can't understand why she won't do it. I didn't potty train her because I got her when she was already full grown, so I don't know if there was a glich in her training or what? Please help me:)

I was wanting to know how what equation I woud use to convert time into units! Ex: If 15 minute is one unit and their are 4 units in one hour how would I be able to enter this info into a adding machine to get the amount of units such as if I had a time sheet that said 10:15 to 12:45 and such?

What kind of food does Hello Kitty eat? Does she eat cat food such as Meow Mix or does she eat human food such as pizza? Just a silly question that I thought was worth asking. Thanks*

Has bad skin problems, I've looked for some home remedies for her and were trying those right now, does anyone have any other idea/suggestions for helping the dogs skin out? They're kinda low on funds for the vet.

Please help! We have had our new dog for several weeks now. He does come inside sometimes, but when we are not home he stays outside and has a dog house.

But he is chewing our plants and chewed up a wooden bench. How do we get him to stop chewing??? He already has bones and chew toys!

Yes, he is neutered. He is very happy in our home - he has a brother that he romps and plays with, and plenty of people who love him. He has lots of windows to look out. But if we're not paying close enough attention, he bolts out the door! He stays close...he doesn't usually go more than a house or two away. But he's a dark gray cat, and I'm afraid he'll get hit when he bolts out at night!

I have two female 4 month old husky pups..its been about a week since their last puppy shot..I have to leave them in a kennel outside when I come to my future sister in laws house to watch her baby 5 days a week..I know they must get bored with not enough room to run. Well she has a big fenced in backyard and has already told me it would be alright to bring the pups over..I was wondering if enough time has passed since their shots that I am able to take them places now?

I noticed my puppy is sometimes afraid to come up to people, including myself and also my boyfriend (we live together and both take care of him). I don't know how to exactly explain his actions. In the monring when i let him out of the crate he stretches and walks right up to me very peaceful, but when he is doing his daily routines or just walking arond the house and i walk towards him or crouch down and say come, he looks nervous and either playfully runs away or sits and stares at me. I tried taking treats and placing them in front of me and directing him to "come" and he quickly comes and eats the treat. is this something I should just give time since hes only 3 motnhs? Also if you read my previous question about treats, i try showing him i have treats in my hand, but he looks ont he floor for it, hence the reason why i have been putting it on the phone for him to come. Please help i want my puppy to be comfortable with us and strangers!

My 12 year old cat has feline kideny failure, but he is hopefully getting better. After 3 days in the hospital we brought him home, but my younger cat has been acting very strange around him. He's usually quiet and calm but now around the older cat he is growling, hissing, and making chuffing sounds. Can he sense there is something wrong?
