Pets - 30 August 2007

The rocks and plants in my aquarium have a brown stain on them. I thought at first it was a deposit left from using aquarium peat. Now the water is cloudy also. The Nitrite is 0, and the nitrate are in acceptable levels.

My indoor cat has been attacked by fleas -- first time ever in her life. I'm at the end of my wits and am urgently seeking for help.

I used a dosage of Zodiac Spot On flea control for cats two days ago. I've also been combing her very frequently. She still looks very itching. I don't know how to tell whether she's allergic to flea bites.

Also, I'm considering using the more effective Revolution, Advantage or Frontline. But I don't know if it's dangerous to use it just a few days after Zodiac Spot On.

If this is not safe, how can I help her? Are there instantly effective natural solutions that I can put in her food or on her coat?

Could someone also explain why my indoor cat can catch fleas after peaceful five years. I've recently moved. The new place has cockroaches and the landlady has two dogs in her yard. Are they related to the flea infestation?

Thank you very much for your help!

My dog has about a 3 x 3 inch bright red hotspot behind her ear where she's been 'kicking' it.

What is the best way to treat this? We've been putting vaseline on it since we found it just a few hours ago.

She's, as I said, eight months old. She was hanging around the garden all day, and we were trying feebly to get her to come back in. I saw her around three, panting and yowling a little, but it wasn't like she was hurt. Now it's 9:20 at night, and she hasn't come back! We've been calling and food-shaking, but she doesn't respond. It's a little unlike her, but she's never been off on her own for a while. She's tough, but small. I'm worried, but was considering she might be in heat...HELP?

My mother hates my C&C cage and says that it's way to big and that they need to be put into pet store cages. I've tried explaining that a 2X4 c&c is the perfect size for my two male pigs but she totally disagrees. So I was wondering if anyone knows about plastic kiddie pools being good for housing guinea pigs. I heard about that somewhere and maybe I can convince her to use that instead. If I can't does anyone have any good reccomendations for an approriate sized pet store cage for 2 male piggies. Thank you in advance.

I've had cats for years. Years ago I had this girlfriend who liked cats too. I think maybe it's a way of hanging on to her in a way but even before her I've been taking care of them.

I was just cleaning my dog and saw that she had a huge number of ticks in her ears although she's been recently treated with Frontline and with a shot to prevent mange that usually kills fleas and ticks also. I can't understand how she has ticks in her ears and I don't know if I can put tick medicine in her ears or not. A neighbor suggested rubbing alcohol, another suggested pulling them out one by one (DISGUSTING) and another neighbor said vaseline will smother them. What do you guys think? Can I put Frontline Tick Repellant in her ears or are her ears too sensitive for such strong medicine?
