Some one told me if my cats breath smells bad. Is that true?

My cat licks his butt, so how do I tell that from non-bad breath.

Is there a specific cause?
She is a sheperd sheltie mix and eats IAMS lamb flavor weight control. She has eaten this since she was a puppy. She gets occasional Milk Bones.

My cat, Rudy, has been sneezing often lately. And they're not just little sneezes. They're big sneezes, and he makes up to 10 of them in a row. He does this up to a dozen times a day. I'm wondering if he's allergic to something. He'll be 9 years old, if that makes any difference. Am I right to worry, or is it just harmless?

I have 2 cats brother and a sister. They both have been fixed. The male cat is twice the size of my female. He keeps thinking he can have relations with her. He jumps on her back and holds her down and performs the action. My husband and I yell at him. Sometimes she cry's I don't know if he is hurting her. He holds her by the back of her neck. He don't enter because he can't, but in his mind he has these feelings. What can I do to stop him?

What unexpected foods does your cat like? Mine has a thing for corn, of all things.

I have neons, danios, a gourami, a dwarf african frog and a mollie. I am the kind of fish dork that will actually stare at their little community of fish and watch interactions and health of fish every day. I have been noticing that my mollie is getting beat up... but by who?
I watch and no one ever seems to even bother with my little guy. but yet his head has had some wounds. They are healing. And now a chunk is missing from his dorsal fin. WTH? I don't get it.
My fish are pretty docile and all seem to swim around pretty oblivious of each other. Could it be some wierd disease or is someone really attacking him? Water levels seem ok - A little ammonia that I am rectifying with 25% water changes but even that seems like it couldn't be enough to cause this...
I am at a loss. Thanks for your help...

I have read other postings that suggest the dogparent use a clicker or treat as positive reinforcement. One thing I haven't seen is how do you get your puppy to stay on one side of you i.e. I'm right handed so I guess I should use my left hand to hold the leash (to keep my right hand free if anything comes up). So how do I keep my puppy from zig zagging? Also, when we're indoors, he follows me and sometimes runs by my feet --too close for comfort because I am afraid I (or my bf) will step on him by accident. I already bought some bells for his collar but is there a way to show my dog not to run into my feet (esp. where I am about to set foot)?

if the dog "doing its business" on the street and the owner doesn't clean it up, would the owner be in trouble? do they have to pay fines? how much?

My husband caught one in a live trap and someone told him that this is what it was. We have pics, just wondering if anyone had heard of it.

geez ive been looking online FOREVER and theres so much trash online its almost impossible to find anything online. Im looking for pictures of a cats eye thats blind and a picture of a normal non blind cat.

Do the eyes look different? Is there a way to check and see if they are blind?

Our cat got run over by our car when my sister ran over him. He had surgery twice and he went blind and got his vision back. He has been taking several meds since from a vet and isnt allowed to walk for 5 weeks. Im worried cause tonight i noticed that his eyes aren't responding to light and we think its his meds causing him temporary blindness. Is there any ways to tell or can you find ANY pictures for me this is ridiculous..

Well Im not ok will aborting her pups. Im more then willing to take my time and find good homes maybe a contract that will allow me to know if they can no longer care for them I get the chance to take the pups back. I did want to breed he once with my male but I was lead to believe she would not be having a heat untill mid to the end of this year. Im a little worried her age 7 months might affect how she cares for the pups. She is a very loveing and active pup, but will she be able to do the mothering they will need?

I am fostering a dog who has been an absolute joy to be around. Very well behaved and mellow. Seems to just want love. I posted an ad to try and get him adopted and he has growled and almost snapped at a couple people that have met him. I can't keep him because I already have 2 dogs. Any tips on positive introductions or de-attachment would be greatly appreciated.

My cat is an indoor cat only, because he is declawed and I feel that it's safer for him. He's recently discovered the dog door however, and has been using it constantly when I'm not looking. I worry a lot because we live in coyote country. My younger cat has not exhibited any interest in going outside yet. I've tried the spraying water method for whenever I see him go near it, but it hasn't worked. Any advice?
