I have a Tropical Fish tank. I have 2 Tiger Barbs, 2 Gourami's, and A Tri-Color Shark in the tank. Yesterday my catfish suddenly died and I noticed some whit spots on him when I took him out of the tank. Before he died he was swimming up near the top of the tank and kept falling to the bottom. Today I noticed that my Shark was acting similar the way the catfish acted before he died, and I also seen the little white dots on the shark. The other fish are fine, for now. The PH and ammonia levels of the tank are fine. What could be the problem?

He doesn't shed now, but if kept healthy will this happen? Is it a pre-determined gene?

I have a 7-year old cat (domestic short hair - aka common house cat) that chews through electrical power cords, plastic shopping bags, plastic hoses - basically anything plastic that he can get in his mouth, and has for the past 5 years.

He has a companion cat, is relatively active (you know, for a cat), is otherwise very healthy. Neither cat goes outside and they both eat a good diet of Iams Adult Cat Food (dry, very rarely they get a little wet food).

So, what would cause a cat to chew on cords? I have gone through countless computer keyboards, printers and mice, several lamps, a couple of coffee makers, a blender and at least two toasters - all of these things are plugged in and have live power going through them. If he has gotten shocked, it doesn't seem to phase him.

Any help on why or how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

I thought it could be allergies or perhaps mosquito bites.I started bathing him every other day just because he likes it, it's been hot, and because there have been bad fleas lately also. I noticed when he woke from a nap and had been sleeping on a damp spot of the pavement from where I had cleaned earlier and he laid down before it could dry. When he got up from his nap that side of his body that was damp was incredibly "welted". it doesn't appear to be bothering him very much.The thing that bothers me is that there are many stray dogs in this area. Disease and alot of really bad stuff like parvo etc spread really easy here. I volunteer on the weekends for a stray animal project so I know first hand how bad it is. I am constantly dealing with worms and other bugs he picks up from outside.If anyone has any idea what it could be I'd love to hear it.PLEASE NO REMARKS ANYTHING CONTAINING THE WORD VET.Im NOT in the U.S not everybody can run to someone else to save them with everything.

We don't understand how it could have happened. Her eye was infected (cat conjuvtivitis i think) Well that started to clear up really well this week and I think the infection spread from her eye to her neck from not being treated. (she had the infection for like 3 weeks) well i went home for a day and came back here and she was all sleepy and inactive.My boyfriend and i napped for about 3 hours and when we woke up his mom asked us of we knew of this golf ball sized lump on her neck and i said no there was nothing there about 3 hours ago. it looked like it had a hole in the middle. well a little bit later they see her again and it ruptured there was blood and goo allover her. they cleaned it up and waitied till morning. Boyfriends mom took her to the vet in the morning and his grandparents picked her up this afternoon and they lanced her. i was wondering if they left this big hole open so that it can drain. would it have gotten worse if they stitched it? because it looks gross. HELP :[

Recently for my new fish I completely revamped my tank into a whole new setup. I used to have neon gravel, an assortment of ornaments, pink , blue and purple plasric plants. I started to think all the artifical dyes, and plastic might have been affecting my tank. When my Ryukin died I completely revamped the tank with natural gravel, a live plants and no coloured ornaments.

Which do you prefer and has what I did made any difference to the health of my future goldfish?

My mothers cat keeps peeing on the floor. She took her to the vet and there is nothing wrong with her. . . the cat is just "pissy"
It keeps peeing outside the litter, which is clean and in one corner on my mothers nice hardwood floor in the dining room. She has tried Nilodor and other detering products, but nothing works. She told me she would get rid of the cat if it keeps doing this and I do not want her too. Please help!!!

I received an email about an 8 month old female dog, named Pumpkin, who needs a place to stay for a few weeks, but unfortunately I'm living in Louisiana now and Pumpkin needs help ASAP. She is in Vail, CO. She has kennel cough, so she needs a temporary (or permanent) home away from other dogs until she has recovered. If you think you can help her out please email me. She is a red coonhound mix and from what I hear is a sweety but she does have some separation anxiety issues.

Thank you so much!
