Hopefully it doesn't mean I'm giving this pusssy an orgasm!
P.S. had to use 3 sss's cos ***** is shown by stars!! Why is this.. A ***** is a cat isn't it??

I purchased 20 marine snails last week and placed them in my marine tank. They made a mass exodus towards the top of the tank and now are all on the underside of the lid, many of them out of the water. They do not appear to be feeding on the algae or moving much. When I move any to a lower part of the tank they just move straight back up to the lid again. I am very confused! Can anyone help? Thank you

She is six years old. I adopted her four days ago. The animal shelter gave me a bag of hill science diet. Is that a good food? Or is there something better? What where the dog food brands that where recalled? I want to make sure I don't get them. Please help.

I just want to know how these lights works and If I buy do I need a fish tank cover? I don't have a fish tank cover and I am planning to buy an aquarium light. I have seen these lights on Ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=250160943770&Category=46314&_trksid=p3907.m29

and this on petco website

http://www.petco.com/product/7666/All-Glass-Aquarium-Twin-Tube-Strip-Lites.aspx

I wonder which one is better? And If I get one do I need a fish tank cover again or a plastic acrylic diffuser like thing or they come already with water protection? I don't have a hood on my tank and I am in a budget the only thing I could afford now is a light.

I just bought a pH test kit and my ph is above 7.6(max reading) I have read many different opions on pH for gold fish in freashwater fish for dummies it says 7-9
the kit says 7.5
and this dude at the petstore says they keep their gold fish at 6.6 and that they tried 8 and all the fish died.
I've used the same tap water for my fish for 3 years now. I've only had 2 deathes in this period pretty recetly since my fish are getting old. I lost one to a immpossible to cure diease and the other to old age. should I ajust my pH levels to the suggested ones and which one is right? or should I stick to the water I'm using? If I do need to change is there another way to lower my ph without the use of chemicals?
thanks

Fairly small fish. No bigger than 3-4 inches each? I'm not keeping corals in it, but I do have quite a few small invertabrates that they'd have to get along with. Snails, hermits, Mithrax crab. Plus an anemone and a few feather dusters. Thanks alot!

I recently rescued a very tiny chihuahua very, very tiny might I add. She was rescued as a dog at a puppy mill, malnourished and rather the "runt"... or perhaps not being fed stunted her growth significantly. She is a year old, weighs 1 pound and five ounces, and none the less is pregnant with who knows what. I am worried for her because she is very small, but it just seems to late to abort the puppies. She was given to me because I breed dogs, yet I never bred chihuahuas and would like some advice from an outside view. My vet said she is going to defiantly need a c-section and she is much to far in the pregnancy to do anything but let her have the puppies. Do you think she can survive something so big for a 1 pound chihuahua? I wish these people would have spayed the poor little thing ; any advice?

This morning he woke up vomiting (it was a yellow creamy puke) . Then I took him for a walk and he was with no energy.. he poo once in a normal way and twice very "soft" (like diarreah). Just an hour ago, he vomited again. Yesterday I gave him some chicken bones and I'm afraid that's what caused it. I usually feed him with dog food.

I'm ready to get some mean responses, bc there always are on here, but I just want to know people's opinions on this. About two months ago, my boyfriend's (whom I have lived with for years) black lab mix attacked my Jack russell. He put him in the hospital for a week, numerous surgerys, etc, and he now is living with a permanent trachea. We were not sure what happened, we got him neutrued, bc he was not, we then took him to an animal behaviorist for a temperment assessment, the lady said she did not recoomend he be in any home w/ other animals, or any small children. We tried to find a home, but could not. He was secluded from our other animals, and he got loose a few days ago, and attacked my dog again. Luckily, not as bad, still a night of hospitalization, but this was it, he could not stay here anymore. We took him and surrendered him to the humane society, actually his sister did, and she called us to tell us as soon as she signed him over, they immedialtely put him down. I now

I have a male kitten, about 4 months old, not yet fixed.

I've heard terrible things about male cats and their tendency to "spray"... but I am not sure when this starts, and what steps can be taken to prevent it from happening.

He will be getting fixed very soon, but is he likely to start spraying afterward? How can I protect my furniture? Is there an age when male cats begin to spray? Do ALL male cats spray? Is there a possibility that he may not spray at all?

Thank you so much for your help!
