My cat just ran away today because i let my beagle outside today and forgot to let him in. what then happened was that there was enough space in the door for the dog to get back in but when we came home today my cat was gone. She is an indoor cat and is not used to the outdoors!! Will she come back?

ok ive wanted a dog for a very long time and ive wrote a 30 page "report" about why i should have one and i wrote a little poem thing and everything but she still said no. Ihave a grandpa who is willing to MAYBE even let me have it at his farm witch is about 5 miles from my house. my mom has pretty much said no to everything ive tried. I ABSOLUTELY GARENTEE that I will take care of it and everything so no "your not ready for a dog, or how old are you, or just accept no for an answer, that is not what i want" I have a mowing job that i make $35 a week so i can afoord food and shots when needed and vets bills so no "well theres other expences you know" answers either. My gramma that livs with my grandpa taht is ok with me getting a dog doesnt want one so thats why its a maybe answer for the dog staying at his house. Please help me.

And the dog i want is a beagle just so you know.
And i will pay for the dog to so no "well she probly says no cause shell have to buy it" answers also.

I was cooking and my dog ate some cabbage that had fallen, she seems to really like it, is it ok for her to eat it, or is it dangerous?

After reading these Q & A's I went and got some test strips for my tank. Now, I know some of you don't like the strips but that's all wal mart had and I'm sick so I don't feel like going anywhere else. It's close to home. Here's the results... Ammonia 3.0, nitrate 20, nitrite .5, hardness 300 (very hard), alkalinity between 120-180, and pH is about 7.8. What does all this mean? i know I sound stupid but I tested the water and don't know what the results mean. I bought some Bio-spira today and added it to the tank cause the water is really cloudy and fish don't look so good. I also bought some Easy Balance made by tetra but haven't added it. Don't know if I can w/ the bio-spira. Do I need to add it? Also, one last question. What is the difference btween aquarium salt and table salt?

Freshwater tank - 5 guppies, 2 neons, 3 rummy nose, 3 platys, 1 pictus 30 gal

Please don't come down on me, educate me. I'm willing to learn. Thanks in advance.

My cat just got back from the vet today. We brought her in for a normal 'snip, snip' is what we call it. Really she just got fixed. The Dr says that she is underweight 5lb for a 6year old, and surmised that it was because of the uterus. When he opened her up she, in all of his 20 years, has never seen a more twisted and gnarled uterus ever! He thinks this is why she is so skinny. When I brought her home we decided to put her in my mothers room and shut the door for some peace and quiet. However when we got back from picking some food up for her, we went to the room and no cat.... we looked everywhere! Now is this a normal thing?
Should I be dreading all the things that the vet told me could go wrong.. Like her stitches coming appart and her 'intestens come spewing out' or anatheasic death. I cant help but dread that shes dead and thats why she cant hear us looking around for her.
=/
So is it normal for the cat to do this?
(sorry about spelling... I'm not great at it.)

I will be traveling to the Keys for a week and will be staying in Islamorada. Anyone know of a good dog boarder in the keys, I prefer a cageless facility. He is a big 85 pound golden retriever who is a sweetheart and well behaved.

If you do what are they? How old are they? Are they part of the family in a sense? Ok maybe more that one question, but clearest answer will get the best answer.Xx

We have a Weimaraner who is a little over a year old. She is extremely high-strung. My husband is an over-the-road truck driver and she goes with him on the truck. She does pretty well there, but is a holy terror when she comes home. Will she settle down with age? Please don't suggest professional training as my husband is only home about 4 days a month.

I have a great set-up for my red-ear slider turtle. I usually feed it by hand four pellets twice a day. I used to have a routine by feeing it in the morning and the night but for a week I was forced to get off the routine but now I want to go back to the routine but my turtle is not eating! During that week of being off the routine he still ate, but at odd times. My turtle is very active and seems healthy. Any suggestions? I have tried buying different brands of food. His old brand that he is used to is no longer sold, but I found something very similar...but no luck. Please save my turtle!

My dog Jenny has a little problem. Every so often, even though she is walked regularly and is fully house-trained, pee falls out of her. For example, just a moment ago she was eating out of her food bowl and all of a sudden I heard a splash. Urine just "fell out of her." She absolutely did not stop to squat and urinate but instead looked as upset and astonished as I was. Could anyone tell me why this is happening? Should I be concerned? It obviously makes Jenny upset and is quite a nuisance as it happens regularly.
