Does any one know if yahoo reports suspected animal neglect/abuse to the relevant agenceys eg: RSPCA ??? AND IF NOT WHY NOT????

I replyed to a post last night after looking at links which had been put up regarding other posts by this person which I found quiet distressing, yet tonight the question has been removed, but will anyone be reporting this sad person? Or will this so called “dog lover” just be allowed to carry on regardless?

I have male betta(red color) and he already had his small nest build. I bought a female betta(blue color) today and was
observing closely.. Male betta definetely reacted to this.. and showed his typical male aggressiveness.. He started chasing female betta and chase went on for a while. Surprisingly female betta attacked and destroyed his nest. This was definetely not an accident. She had her eye on this nest and when she got chance she just attacked the nest destroying it completely. Can someone throw some light on this and tell me why would she do that? Does this mean female is not ready to mate? Male betta again went back to his nest busy rebuilding and this time he made it bigger than what he had before.. !!!
Not he is back chasing female betta.. But now I put partition between both of them. I know male can kill female sometimes..
Any tips highly appreciated.. :)

Thanx

S My Doxie won't stay asleep?
My 10 month old pup used to sleep in the bed with me. My boyfriend moved in with me 3 months ago and we have started to ween him to his own bed. He sleeps in it but every morning at 5 am he wants to come in and play. If we lock him out he will sit at the door and whine. The past few mornings for an hour straight. How can I fix this. If I open the door he jumps all over and hits you with his ball indicating for us to throw it. My boyfriend says just ignore him and he will learn this is not a way to get attention and he'll eventually stop. Does that sound right?

Please no online sites. Looking for a store that would have one. It has to be a long. It's for a hermit crab, so no extra height is needed. Any help is appreciated.

I just adopted a 6 year old cat a few days ago. She's super affectionate but does not seem interested at all in any kind of play activity. All she does is eat, drink and sleep. I understand as cats age, their activity level decreases, but shouldn't she be somewhat active? I'm taking her to the vet in two days and will ask the vet but was wondering if anyone could fill me in. She spent SIX MONTHS in the shelter and I was wondering if this could've contributed to her not wanting to play and if she might come around once she gets used to her new environment. Also, she does not cover up her waste in the litter box. Does anyone know why? I was thinking maybe she does not like the litter, because instead of covering her waste, she scratches the side of the pan and I know it's not because it's dirty because I clean it sometimes twice a day.
If anyone could help, I'd appreciate it.

I found a baby kitten (I think shes about 4 weeks old.) 2 days ago.

We haven't had the money (my mom wasn't paid) to go get the proper milk to feed the kitten, so we've been feeding her cow milk. She does lap from a saucer, but we have to hold her so she doesn't step into the dish or stick her nose in too far that she sneezes.

I've been feeding her cow milk for 2 days (yesterday and today), I'm scared something will happen to her from what I've heard. We can't buy the milk right now (Pet stores closed), will anything happen to her? We planned to go once my dad got home but he went somewhere and didn't tell us, he came home late.

My parents say they dont have the money to bring her to the vet to get her checked, so I want to know if anything will happen to her in the future from drinking cow milk? :S

The large crate is too big to put anywhere. So if you put up baby gates(that you can't jump over), in a room and put him in there, is there a way to house train him without the crate?

My boyfriends parents just got this new puppy. It is about 12 weeks old now. This is the most spoiled dog ever. He sleeps on the pillow in their bed at the top with them, they give him scraps of food in his bowl with his food in addition from the scraps them give him in a plate! They leave for work at 9am and don't get back untill 6 so they leave him in the kitchen to poddy train him with the puppy pads. I think they should put him in the kennel they bought and don't use because he poops and pees all over the kitchen. I don't want to go up and be like your raising your dog the wrong way, but they won't punish him. How do I kinda tell them to use other methods for their dog without taking over??? hhelp!

They are so cruel and a grille broke my cousin's hamster's foot. I know I wouldn't want to walk on a grill with bars smaller than my toes and gaps between the bars wider than my foot. Not to mention most of the cages that have these do not provide any place for the hamster to rest except for perhaps the food bowl. what a sad life. All for "ease of cleaning" with a pull out tray beneath the grille.

She is four years old and has just gotten into it. She has another dog in the backyard with her and lots of toys to play with. I know bassetts are inclined to dig by nature, but is there any way to get her to stop? My parents love their dog like another child, but they're talking about getting rid of her because she keeps tunnelling under the fence and getting out. Help!

please read this and tell me if your mind has changed at all?

Good thing Gaston County, North Carolina doesn't have a ban on pit bulls, or this man wouldn't be alive this morning.

Steve Carpacca, 41, was asleep in his mobile home at 3:15am when his pit bull ran into the bedroom and started barking frantically.

The man awoke to a room filled with smoke and immediately ran outside. When he realized that his dog had not followed him, he rushed back into the blazing trailer, armed with two 5-pound fire extinguishers, but the fire was already out of control.

Four fire departments responded to the call, and it took a total of 15 firefighters to douse the flames. The dog never made it out; fire crews found the little hero's body in the hall just outside Mr. Carpacca's bedroom.

Mr. Carpacca was devastated at the loss of his dog.

"The dog saved his life, absolutely," said Chief Dicky Harris with the Community Volunteer Fire Department. "If the dog hadn't been in the house, [Mr. Carpacca] would have been overcome by smoke."

It is believed that the fire was caused by an electric heater in the kitchen. Mr. Carpacca never heard any of the smoke detectors sound.

My cat is ALWAYS retching - like it's completely constant. We first thought it was hiccups, but now it's been happening for like a month. She even throws up...like once a day. And it's little, not a huge pile. Just like 5 half chewed pieces of cat food. Can anyone tell me what's wrong with her?

My mother in law says you can but that sounds pretty far out there. I can't really afford the costly surgery or another 8 mouths to feed. Any ideas? Thanks!
