Pets - 30 January 2007

My male (neutered) cat has hat a recent change in the order of his urine. It is so strong that you can smell it across 2 floors in my home.

No changes in his diet and he was neutered over 7 years ago. The change in the order just changed last week. I watched him for UTI symptoms and I have not seen anything out of the ordinary.

Any advice?

My partner and I have a schedule where we are able to come during our lunch break and let the dogs out. We let them out every 4 hours or less but we wanted to know how much and time frames should we feed them. We leave the food out and they will eat as soon as we let them out the crate. Are they eating just to eat or are they hungry??

My boyfriend and I just bought a 29 gallon fish tank. We're trying to decide what fish to put in there. He likes bigger fish, but I like the smaller fish. For example, he likes how cichlids look, since they're so big. But I love little fish, like tiger barbs. Any advice on what big fish and little fish go well together? (I obviously don't want the little fish to get eaten.)

We have a 1 year old Golden Retriever. She is the most intelligent dog that I've ever had, but she's almost impossible to teach because she's constantly jumping up on me, chewing things up, and just generally running wild. I feel like I have an out of control child. I'm very frustrated.

I think they look sharp and clever. yeah their senses are really sharp.

Do you think a husky makes a good pet? I think the other one that makes a good pet is the dog with all wrinkles on his face looks rather ugly like a bulldog but it's not as aggressive like a bulldog..i don't even know the name of it.

Oh one more thing, can they withstand hot weather, or are they just good for cold snowy climates?

I want to start a saltwater aquarium, but I just found out how much money it takes. Are there any cost cutting tips? Do the cheap protein skimmers work? Are expensice lights necessary?

alleviate the overpopulation problem and killing animals at the shelter if all the vets would reduce the cost of spay and neutering?
And offer that service even though they are pregnant, in heat, and young?
I rescue cats and have a wonderful vet that will do it even if they are very young. They do not turn down any cats unless they are very sick. I have been doing it for a year now and have never had any complications.

Usually vomits only during the night. Does not appear sick before hand, just starts licking. I have tried several different foods now and she gets no people food. Its usually just yellow stuff thin, some times a bit mucousy.

(NOT "and nothing else.")

A bit fell on the floor while I was making soup recently; it got gobbled up. So did more that was deliberately left in the bowl.

We have a bit of a plant-chewing problem with one of the two (though they'll both eat the chard), so I'm inclined to keep garnishing their food with greens.

Their dry food is this stuff:

Note "Healthy Fresh Veggies & Fruit – Whole carrots, sweet potatoes, parsley and cranberries contain phytonutrients..." -- apparently, not enough.

No digestive problems have turned up; litterbox habits, etc, are the same.

Are there any particular people greens that cats shouldn't eat, though?

I have a Frilled Canary couple who has been together for eight months now. And the female keeps laying eggs that never hatch although she incubates all the time. When I break the eggs on the 15th incubation day I find them not fertile at all. I tried changing the male Canary but still she lays eggs with no chicks!
What shall I do?

She is from the SPCA. She doesn't bark at my husband and Daughter. She will not come in the house(even with bribes like treats). She only follows my 13 yr old son and me. She goes from room to room when we do get her in the house.

Our 4-month old puppy eats acorns, and short of taping his snout shut, there's nothing we can do to stop him because we have 3 acres of oak trees. He has food available, and eats it when he's hungry, but he gnaws on acorns all the time and I'm pretty sure he's trying to eat them, shells and all. Have any of you had experience with this?

I have him in a 10 gallon tank with 3 other fancy goldfish although they are all orange. I have had this set up for almost 7 years now. He is not acting any differently. He is eating normally. As are the other fish. The rest of his color is still the same deep black. Has anyone heard of this? Any advice please.
