The whole damn place stinks of cat pee, I do what I can to clean it up but it's like a competition they have to find new places to pee.

I only have two of the little bastards and love them dearly, but I think they will have to go.

I let them out and show them both attention, they are males and not had their bits cut off, one is almost 3 and the other almost 2.

From a pet shop, not brothers.

Please advise me, I even stink of cat pee at work, it's gone too far.

we adopted a rescue maltese about 6 months ago. he's wonderful. he did develope some seperation anxiety wit me but we did overcome this as good as we can. by chance we got outselves a rescued silky lady. this seemed to help alot; draw some of the attention or fixation from me. they sleep, eat cuddle, do everything together.
now the only thing is he whines like crazy in the morning.
they are "fenced" up in the kitchen during the night where they have a basket to sleep in as they otherwise "soil" the whole house. i think time in the house should be supervised. in the kitchen they can't hurt themselves.
now i do everything with the dogs. i take for a walk in the morning, a walk when i get home & they come to the stables with me for a run. my husband takes them for 1 walk before he goes to uni. also he plays in a very human way with them as i threat them as dogs. my maltese will whine in the mornings for me until i come out. now how do i get my dog to stop whining in the morning?

Whenever I put my face really close to my Betta's 1.5 gallon aquarium, its gills widen. Is it scared of me?

My male betta seems to blow a lot of bubbles. The bubbles are not clumped together, so I don't think it would be a bubble nest. When I watch it swim, every so often it will blow a small bubble which rises to the surface of the water. Is this normal?

He's a blue Betta. All blue, except two tiny bits of red at the front that you can't even see unless you're actually looking for it.

I just took in a 4 month old puppy who hasn't had any shots yet, is not on flea/tick medication, or heartworm protection. I have two other dogs who are current on everything. Is it safe for the dogs to be together until I can get shots for the puppy ASAP? Is there a chance that the puppy can catch something the other two bring in? Is there any risk to my two dogs?

Found a baby sparrow in the yard today..barely able to flutter..(not really fly yet)..have it in a tall cage right now, but it doesnt even fly up to the branches..it can hop up to the food dish I put very low..I put wild bird seed in it , also provided a bird dish with water, it could reach..any other things I need to provide? It stays mostly on the floor, and hops around, or tucks its head under its wing, and sleeps on the floor.Should I give it a little nest to sit in, on the floor (a small dish with cotton or tissues?) Any help would really be appreciated!!

my cat recently gave birth in my room. one of my housemates thought it would "only be fair" if he got to have the kittens in his room for three days, and then we would move them back into my room for three days, then his...etc; however, i have heard that moving kittens when they're first-born like that is really bad for them, as well as the mother, so i told him no. he asked me why but i couldn't really give him an answer. could you please tell me why?

How do you keep a ferret's collar on? I want to be able to let her roam around the house a little more (of course, I have "ferret-proofed" it). But she's a small ferret and her collar, which is made for ferrets, doesn't stay on her well, since ferrets hardly have necks. How do I keep the bell collar on her so I can hear her around the house? I don't want to do it too tight, but how much is too tight?

Hi.I have a female syrian hamster living in a small cage (crittertrail 2).I am worryed it is too small. This is a picture of a crittertrail 2 cage (not mine)http://www.petco.com/product/11499/Super-Pet-CritterTrail-Two.aspx . I heard it is too small. The only problem is I am from the U.S not U.K and I mistakenly looked at a website and it was U.K website. I didn't know that and I saw a cage. I thought it was $33, but it was U.K money so it's about $50! Where can I find a good cage that dosen't have alot of tubes and costs less then $40.
My poor hamster really needs this. She can almost fit in her tubes. I don't have alot of money to spend on a big cage, so I need a good cage.

Please don't give me things that are too expensive.

I was wondering if there was anything I could use to clean my dog's ears other than the stuff you get from the pet store?

I heard you can use 1:1 vinegar & water, but the last time I did that, he ended up getting an ear infection and just smelled like a pickle. (This was suggested by the vet.)

If anybody could give me an answer it would be greatly appreciated. :D thanks!!

Last October, I cared for a young litter of four Kittens. Sadly, we discovered that they had feline distemper, and although we did everything we could, they passed away. I have been thinking about getting a new cat for companionship, but my mother isn't convinced. She says that it is possible for the virus to still be living in the house. How long can the virus live for, and is there anything I can do to ensure that it is gone before I get a new cat?

I used to feed my cat Nutro weight management cat food in the pouch. Nutro's products are guaranteed to improve skin and coat. Their food (before the contamination) helped my cat loose weight and he did not shed. Since it has been recalled he is shedding again. Can any one recommend a wet/canned food that improves skin and coat and reduces shedding?
I used Nutro well before the recall with no problems and the I did end up with a few affected pouches so Dash(my cat) had to be treated for that and has recouperated. I just need another food guaranteed to improve his skin and coat.
