ok sorry another question i just asked the question about my kitten she is not moving that much and is sitting in one place with eyes closed i tried to coax her into bed but she wont go and sit by it with eyes closed but i know shes alert because my mom just came and she was meowing towards her and was rubbing against her, so im thinking shes ok just weak and groggy.

Hello everyone,
Over the course of the first 4 months of a puppy's life, they require a series of vaccinations (I believe 3). At what point in the process does the puppy receive a shot for rabies? Is it in the first round of shots, or is it involved in all 3? I need to know for customs/quarantine purposes, since I am taking my new puppy abroad soon...
I want to ask the breeder who is selling the puppy to me but I can't contact her right now and I want to know the answer now...
When I receive the puppy, he will only have had his first round of shots and then I am responsible for two more sets of vaccinations...when the puppy gets to me with his first round done, is he protected against rabies yet?
I don't know if this makes sense, I don't seem to be very articulate this morning...can anyone help me out?

My cat has less hair above his eyes. He is less than a year old and it seems to have gotten worse when we started to give him milk. Is this normal? Also what can i do to make it grow back?

P.S. when we got him there wasnt a lot of hair there anyway but it looks like it got worse

Me & the boyfriend want a dog when we move in together, the trouble is we're arguing over which breed.
He wants an english bull terrier but I can't stand them,I think they're ugly and the last one I saw tried to rip my leg off.
I want a Rottweiler but he's saying no because I wont let him have an english bull.
We need a comprimise, what dog should we get? Someone suggested a German sheppard.

so we had our 5month old cat spayed yesterday, i didnt realize she was only 5 months old is that too young for spaying?

when she came home she was in bad shape very wobbly and groggy and in bad shape but i gave her pain medication before bed with some food at night i heard her eat the dry food and she has been using the litter box. This morning she seems better and her eyes are open more and i gave her some more meds after 8hrs. she keeps on licking her wound but i checked and there isnt any bleeding so should i get her a cone for the head.

she just seems to be sitting in one place and sleeping standing up but it was really bad yesterday.

also the vet said that we have to keep her in one room for 2 weeks will she get depressed or something cause she keeps on going to the door and i know she will run under a sofa which is hard to pick up if we even let her out?

I have four turtles. I'm so worried of one of them. I gave it food, but the rest of the turtles ate it all and the one doesn't want to eat. It just sleep and sleep and sleep and wakes up ever thirty minutes for five minutes then it sleeps again. So, I seperated it from the other turtles. I gave it food, but still, it doesn't want to eat. I just slept and slept. Usually, when I carry a turtle in my had, it will try to escape, but this one just looked at me and sleeps again. Most of my turtles stick out their necks but this one nearly keeps his/her head inside and goes out only when it's awake, but it doesn't stretch it like the other turtles. I'm so worried. I can't bring it to the vet 'till tomorrow? To make it even worse, I don't know any vet! What should I do with this turtle? I want to keep it! I love my turtle!

I had this fish medicine to cure the white spot and itch but the bottle doesn't say any expiry date on it. I had it since 2004 or 2005, do you think I can still use it or is it expired already? cause in the bottle it doesnt show any expiry date and Im afraid it will kill my fish if used.

We just got a 2 month old Bichon, and the people that we got him from said to us that he was pure. They are breeders, but this puppy and another one were sent from another breeder to them to sell. Some people say he looks like a Maltese, or a combination of Bichon and Maltese. If someone can help me I'd really appreciate it.

She has chewed through to the copper wire in a couple appliances, and I'm surprised she hasn't hurt her self yet. Does anybody have any ideas to help get her to stop. I'm not home for a couple of hours, so I can't watch her all the time-I'm at school.

For the past month or so I have been feeding a cat I found hangin out on my driveway. I have 2 inside cats so I figured it thought Id be kind to it. It lets me touch it and from the start has been sweet to me. It rubs itself on my legs and feet and lets me touch it. Is it possible to domesticate this cat enough to bring it inside? if i do bring it inside ill have to vaccinate it and spay it - i think its a female. and id have to declaw it - i cant have one cat inside outside and 2 just inside cats....im so torn as to what to do - I already love this cat like i love my own...also I have one dog inside who plays with the cats I have who are both declawed....I just dont know what to do....

Dear Yahoo Friends,

I live in the country in an old wooden frame home. The home is in good shape and sound. Two years ago I saw a large black snake crossing my back yard while I was doing yard work. I took my rake and picked the joker up and slung him into the woods. A few months later I was upgrading the electrical wiring this pretty little home. Working in the attic I looked to my rear and in the corner of the attic where the eve meets the attic floor a large black snake was coiled up observing me. After doing battle for about 40 minutes with him, I did him in and got rid of it. Yesterday, looking for an item in the attic I noticed a large snake skin on top of the insullation. How do I prevent these critters from gettin in my house? HELP ME!
