my best freind and comapion past away last NOV. he a was 3 foot tall 150lbs. rotti, best dog i ever owned...i recued him 8 years ago, hewas left out in the cold tied to a plow truck with tow chain around his neck, he was more loyal and devoted to me then any human could ever dream of being. I had the Vet come to my home to put him down, it was SO hard, i was drunk for a week straight. I missed him so much, all I did was cry, that same week i went to the shelter and adopted a rotti/hound mix, i love him dearly however, we don't share the same bond that TITAN and I did, I think of him every day,and think about how sad and lonley I am without him. my new dog (rex) reminds me ALOT of him. ( his demenor) we are slowly bonding, but can I ever love him the same way I loved TITAN?

I just found out that I will cost me close to $600 to treat my cat. She has hepatic lipidosis(fatty liver) I DO NOT have that kind of money. (I am 37 weeks pregnant with my second child and not working My husband and I are living paycheck to paycheck) The treatment that he is doing may or may not work. I beleave that I will have to put he down. Not that I dont love her but I just have to think about putting food on the table. My cat is 10 years old would you say that she has lived a long life. What would you do if you were me?

I just adopted 2 kittens and my husband brought home 2 toys for them and they are with catnip. I was wondering I can just leave them lying around the house? Will it be bad for them? I have never had catnip around with my last cats. I dont even know what the purpose of catnip really is? would someone explain it better? I know what catnip is but will it harm them or not with lond exposure to these toys be ok is a concern.

On pet stores, do they seperate female guppies from male guppies. And also how many males do I get for every female?
Are mollies the same?

I was adjusting the clownfish loach to the water and before i knew it the fish was gone. I know the clownfish loaches are more sensitive than goldfish. My ph was on the high side it was around 8.0 and my amnonia was alittle high. im not sure if this is why the fish died or not. i dont want to add chemicals to the tank because i am afraid it will only hurt my other fish. if anyone knows why my loach didnt make it and what i could do so that future fish i buy wont pass away. im confused thou because one loach did make it and then the one i got today didnt. so i really dont know

thing your pet has done,, mine is, my freind gave me a stuffed rotti puppy with synthetic fur on it, for my birthday. i put it in my curio cabnet, along with my other rotti collection. my dog who is (rotti and hound mix, thinks it's real, and keeps jumping on the back of couch to look at it.lol all day and all night, it's so cute. he turnes his head from side to side, and pushes on the glass with his nose, to try and free it.

I know I asked this before, but, the answers I got were.. you know..
not very informative.

My hamster is 1yrs old [just had his bday!]
He's balding on his upper back..
He acts like he's still a baby.
[energetic]

I give him veggies,fruit, and some seeds during the day.


I spoil him and love him all the time.

but..

This is about the balding though..
Is it because I changed his bedding to something else
[its the same brand but diff color]?
or Old age?


Its not mites, I checked him out real good for that.
=[

I'd just hate to see him go.

I would like to know a lot more about Shihtzus and let me tell you why. I have had and bred them casually for 13 years, but now that I'm 56, I have a 2 yr old and a 3 year old and a 12 year old. This retirement had not been fun and I get sad and cry and am adjusting. I worry that they need a younger family because they adore their owners and I feel so badly that I am not more upbeat. I do take them for walks and throw the ball and all, but i also brood because empty nester/retirement/bad health aren't fun. Don't tell me to get a life, I am doing my best given the situation, but would like you Shihtzu lovers to help me think OK ? I love them so so much and they love me too but I want what is best for themm,and at this point it is'nt to change me.

I have a male pug and hes just been bred with a female pug. They locked 4 times so far but she is going home tomorrow. I have another female that is supposed to come into heat beginning of August. Her owner is now worried there won't be enough sperm left for her dog. I don't beleive thats the case but want to know how often is it okay to breed him? Will he have enough sperm?

People against breeding please screw off this question isn't for you, and you WILL get a thumbs down!

When our cat wants something he will often rub up agianst us, and he will also roll over on his back and look up at us. It melts our heart every time. Does he know what he is doing when he does this?
