The cat is about 5 to 6 months old, and was left on a friend's porch. He has been jumping in our tub and going no. 1 and 2 right by the drain. When we put the litter box in the tub, he went on the other end, away from the drain. We also closed the bathroom doorand put the box in the office, he went in the correct room, but not in the box. We place him in the box ALL THE TIME! Does anyone know a trick? I'm getting fed up.

I read on Pet Connection.com that the stores are relabeling the recalled foods and they are putting new labels over the old labels to make it look like the food is ok. The Article is under their Blog and it is Called " THE FOOD OR JUST THE LABELS.

I am wondering. How often do you clean out the fish tank and replace the rocks on the bottom. I cleaned out the fish tank and put new rocks on the bottom. I use to have goldfish years ago and I can't remember how I did it. I did the usual things like you put in the water before putting fish in. I always had clean the rocks when I clean the fish tank. I was wondering and how often should I clean the fish tank. Thanks

I've had this same fishtank for about five months and the same fish have inhabited it.. there has been no change in water pH and I haven't added any chemicals.. the only change is that one of my mollies had babies but until now everyone got along fine! Suddenly one of my guppies has had his tail chewed off! I have no idea which of my fish could have done this because I didn't see it.. they've always been fine together so I never thought to supervise more than just the feedings and water changes (and the occasional peek into the aquarium just to watch my beautiful fish!)

In this ten gallon tank, i have:
1 plecosomus
1 catfish
2 male guppies
2 female guppies
1 female molly
1 male molly
6 baby mollies of unknown gender
and
1 white fantail goldfish

Would any of these fish be aggressive towards my other fish? The petstore said they were all community fish and should live well together! Apparentally not...

Should I have removed my injured guppy? (i did)

please help me!

I have recently got an 8 week old kitten. I was told that she was toilet trained before we brought her home, but since we have got her she isn't using the litter tray. I have followed the advice that I have seen on here before, picked her up and put her in the tray whilst scratching the litter with her paws. We have repeated this quite a few times but as soon as we let her go she walks away. We are also doing this after she has eaten, and repeating it every few minutes or as soon as we see her squating somewhere.
She isn't really using another particular place to go to the toilet - anywhere but the litter tray.
I'm now worried that she is holding it in and not going to the toilet at all making her unwell.
Has anyone got any ideas?

My sister is saying that the eggs at the grocery store are going to be little chickens later on. And her b/f is saying that they will not be babies later on. Who is right? I agree with my sister. Can you give me any facts about baby eggs and if they will become babies soon??

I have a stray cat that I adopted, he showed up at my house and has stayed, he is a male. we was a kitten but is now about 8-12months old. He is not yet fixed. He used to be boxed trained. Lately he will use the littler box to go poo but he will then get out and urinate either on clothes, or towels or paper, or anything left on the floor. I have had to keep him outside because of this. He is a great cat other than this. He loves to be inside so he is not happy with the outside situation as it stands. I have been told that male cats urinate to mark their territory. One person told me that I should have gotten him fixed before he started doing this because now even if he gets fixed he will continue to pee everywhere as it has become a habit. So is this true? Or do you think he may stop this after I get him fixed? Or is this the reason at all?
