My cat has a very touchy stomach and can only eat Special Kitty Urinary Health or she throws up, so I cant put her on a diet food. I've cut down her food, but I cant give much less because our other cat is very thin and needs extra food. Tigger is very inactive, and I recently started her on an exercise program. What type of exercise is best for fat old cats?Is there anything else I can do?

I am considering three vacuum's-
Infinity NV31 Upright Vacuum and
Roomba Sage for Pets and
Roomba Discovery for Pets.
Does anyone have any experiance with these vacuum's? What makes the Sage different than the Discovery (besides price)? Has anyone bought the Infinity NV31?
I have a Golden Retriever with A LOT of hair. I need something that will pick it up. I am not paying for the Dyson so no need to mention that.
Also, has anyone tried the Scooba? Does it work and does it pick up pet hair or does it get clogged?

Thanks!

what would he name the snake? I think he'd call it pandemonium but that's just me.

She is an 8 month old, black lab. She's super sweet. We can't pick her up from the shelter until Friday, so we are killing time trying to think of names. As many as you can think of, we need all of the ideas we can get.

I have a Red-Footed Tortoise, Fluffy. I was wondering if Red-foots did well with other Red-foots or if they prefer solitude? Should I get him a friend?

Their birthdays are coming up next week, and I wanted to know if anyone knew anything that I could bake for them that is simple, easy to make, and not poisonous to them.

Hi - we have a little kitten who 's now almost 9.5 weeks - Saw the vet 2 weeks ago right after we welcomed him @ home and she said he was in great health- He is a bundle of joy, very active ( he is an Aby) and very vocal- The one thing that always worries me though is that he systematically meows when he goes pee or poop in his litter ( whether we are in the room near him or not )- ( he acts very healthy, has no diarhea , seems to use the litter at a regular pace, has been dewormed etc...) We clean his litter once a day in the evening so I doubt it is him asking for something cleaner- Does any of you have an idea of why he has this behavior ? is it just an habit he could have caught from his littermates ? or just because he is vocal ? or is it something you guys have experienced and does it mean anything that i should be aware of ?

My boxer 8 1/2 yrs has been very sick lately, the vet after taking tests says her liver has a small problem, mind you we have different languagues, Italian vs American, but then her pancreas seems to be a big problem for her continual vomiting. I am going to the next prescription of anti-vomit medicine, and will be looking up pancreas for my Peggy. Could I have prevented this? And want to help her sooo much. I would like any advice you have as I will be looking on the internet also, will try anything to make her better. By the way she is still very active, but can not hold anything down. My landlord wont be back until tomorrow, and he can talk to the vet about what is going on and what to do, but when the vet said pancreas problem, I got scared. Please respond with any kind of professional advice you have. Thank you.

He's a Boston Terrier, 8 years old. We just adopted him this past summer.

I have taken him on long, 2 mile, walks when there was snow on the ground because his old owner said he loved the snow. He seemed fine then. But just taking him out for potty breaks now, almost every time now he ends up hoping on 3 paws and keeps trading off between lifting up one of his two back legs.

I tried boots before the snow even came...they were adorable but he wouldn't even walk! He stood in the same spot in the house for like 20 minutes before I gave up. We did get him to walk a couple steps and he did this crazy funny thing where he lifted his feet real high in the air and then spread his legs out far. He did NOT like the boots.

I am thinking of trying different boots though, since now there is snow and maybe if he has to go potty bad enough he won't mind wearing the new footware?

Any ideas? I looked and between his toes looks fine! I rinse them after walks in case salt gets in.

My whippet was attcked by a dog that got loose in the park yesterday. She has stiches across her neck and is not supposed to wear a collar until she is healed. Would something like a harness work for a sighthound? Or is there something else we could get?

MY DOGS LEFT PAW IS A LITTLE BIT SMALLER THEN THE RIGHT PAW. IN THE GRASS MY DOG SHOWS NO DISCOMFORT. HE RUNS, JUMPS AND PLAYS WITH THE OTHER 2 DOGS WITH NO PROBLEMS. BUT ONCE HE STARTS WALKING ON HARD GROUND HE LIMPS, OR DOESN'T USE IT AT ALL. WHEN YOU FEEL HIS PAW, BETWEEN HIS OUTER PINKY (I GUESS YOU CALL IT) AND THE TOE NEXT TO IT YOU CAN FEEL SOMETHING THERE.....LIKE A CYST TYPE OF FEELING THAT YOU GET ON YOUR ARM. BEFORE EVERYONE STARTS "GO TO THE VET..." I'VE GONE TOO 2. WE'VE DONE X-RAYS AND NOTHING HAD SHOWN UP. WHAT I NEED IS SOMEONE WHO MIGHT HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM OR CLOSE TO IT TO TELL ME WHAT THE OUT COME FOR THEM WAS. I LOVE MY DOG........ALL 3 OF THEM, PLEASE GIVE ME SOME IDEAS!!!!
