Where should your kitten sleep I have had no trouble with Oscar til' bedtime.I just got him today and he used his litterbox today.I tried to get him to go to bed with me but I am afraid I might roll over on him and plus I am a little greedy and I want the bed to myself lol.He also takes many long naps during the day I was wondering if I should try and keep him awake because at night he wakes up.Thank you for answering.Have a good day.

I have a 10 month old boxer, ever since we got him at 9 weeks he has always had very loose stools and we dont know why. He has had all his shots and deworming stuff. I have taken him to 4 different vets and know one seems to know why. They have done every test I can think of from stool samples to blood. He does have blood in his stools and sometimes when he is pooping it takes him a long time to get it out. If anyone has ever had this problem and know what it is please let me know. I have also tried taking away everything but his food and still doesnt solve the problem. He eats Science Diet Sensative Stomach food. He doesnt act sick and is still very playful. Please Help!!

My cat is ten years old. When he was declawed last year, the vet told me he had periodontal disease (the cause of his bad breath) and needed to have his teeth cleaned. I can't afford the huge fees for professional teeth cleaning. Does anyone know of a less expensive way?

I've been riding horses for five years but I don't feel like I'm any good. The highest I've jumped is 2 feet 9 inches and I know how to canter but I get really self conscious when I'm riding in a group with people who are better than me. I have low self esteem. I'm just wondering from what I've told you do you think I'm a good horse back rider?

i currently have had my betta in his 5 gallon tank for about 7 months. his tankmate is one apple snail for algae control.
it currently has a 15 watt light bulb, i think its incandescant.

could i change this to a planted tank for my betta?

can i use the same gravel?
do i need some sort of mini flourescant light bulb?it only holds one.( its a hex tank)
and what kind of plants are cheap and can live without a heater?

thanks

Alright, my family and I bought a new betta fish and a half bowl to house it in. I know betta fish don't need much because of the containers they come in and my knowledge of them already. All we have in the bowl is some gravel and a small plant. The half bowl is about 1 gallon.

My mom bought it to make our dining table look "decorative". I feel bad because I have another betta and he's in a 10 gallon aquarium and he's very happy. I don't think my mom wants to add a filter or anything like that because she doesn't want any cords and stuff on the table. I understand that she wants to make the table look nice, but then you have to think about how the fish will live. I just think it's unfair.

Can anyone help me with this predicament?

I know most rabbits don't like water, but that means some do. I wanna know if my bunny does, so should I get a stand and put it in the tub, then put a little water, so if he wants to swim, he'll go? Is that ok?

we just got my dog's shots done...and when we left i grabed a packet thing..and its about pet gum disease...and i looked at my dog's teeth and his condition...basically i think he has gum disease...and when my mom came back i told her... and she said that hes ok because my mom said she has gum diease too...and on the packet it says brushing the dogs teeth will help and so are getting food that's good for teeth..and stuff..and also get him cheweys thats good for his teeth...he used to have some then he started destroying them so we gave him tennis balls...and i think its a bad idea now..

so if we start to brush his teeth now will that help? (because i didnt know that before..about the teeth brushing and teeth cleaning on pets) and now im soo worried and scared...but then i think my dad will say no if we take him to the vet. because idk...the vet are tooooo expensive...like really expensive...but we are getting all the tooth brush and tooth paste...cheweys this week

I've been wanting to get a bird for a long time and am debating between one of these five types of birds. (I would be willing to get a cage-mate if I must. ^^) They are expensive, after all. I'm looking for a bird that likes to be handled (but will be alright if I go out for a weekend; i.e. a couple of days), and is not too noisy. I do realize that parrotlets don't like to be handled so much as the other birds I mentioned. At the moment, I am leaning towards the linnies. Currently, I work at a pet store and we have a number of exotic birds. I'm just so conflicted! On some background info, I've never owned an exotic bird, but as I mentioned before, I care for all my stores birds every morning and evening. (I realize the difference of caring for a bird and owning one.) On a side note, I don't know minute details of the differences between the birds, so any help or advice will be appreciated! I do know basic care for parrots as I mentioned. :)
