It upsets me terribly that there are so many cats and dogs that are unwanted. People need to understand that spay/neuter is very important to stop the killing of all these unwanted pets.Please give me your thoughts! Thankyou!

I own a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd. He has a problem with eating way too fast. I'm afraid of him getting Gastric Torsion{bloat] because i know that its deadly. But he's eaten like this pretty much all his life except when he was a puppy; and he's never gotten bloated; and i'm very suprised at that.

I've seen a bowl that has pegs in it that is used to slow dogs down when their eating; but are there any other methods?

We've just gotten a siamese kitten.
She's 13 weeks old now.

We've decided to breed her when she reaches at least 1 year of age.
We have a friend who is a vet, and she has agreed to help us out.

And don't worry, we're only allowing her to have 1 litter.
We already have homes for half of the soon-to-be-born kittens
(crazy, I know.)

My question is,
after she has had one litter, when can she get spayed?
Or can she get spayed at all?

My puppy was just diagnosed with Kennel Cough and slight yeast in his ear. I didn't think that the oral meds would be too bad because he usually does not mind it, but these meds he will not even open his mouth and runs away. Cleaning and putting the meds in his ears is a workout. He totally freaks out! What can we do?

He will not sit still and I am concerned the amount of meds I am putting in him is not enough. Need help PLEASE!! I don't want my puppy sick anymore!

I take him outside and he will do his thing, both things, then come back in and pee again. I always praise him and give him a treat when he goes. I don't leave water down all day.

I have a 4-year-old Maltese. He developed a limp about a month ago. It started off VERY slight and has gotten progressively worse. Here's the symptoms:

1. It is worst when he first wakes up in the morning or after a nap.
2. After he's walked on it for a couple hours it almost totally disappears. He can run/walk normally.
3. It has gotten noticeably worse over the past month.
4. Anti-inflamatory medication had no effect.
5. X-rays were normal.
6. To the best of my knowledge he did nothing to injure this leg.
7. The leg concerned is the front left.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. The vet has no idea what's wrong but took a blood sample to test for infection.

Thanks!

Can I take the eggs off the plant and put them in a jar filled with water from the fishtank? I dont have another tank and I'm afraid they will eat the fry or eggs. Is it ok to have them hatch in a jar? Or do they need a bubble thing?

My nana recently passed and i have always been very fond of her dog because she got him the same day i was born and we grew up togethor. I always told her i wanted him so she wrote in her will i got the dog. I am now 15 which makes him 15 so hes 105 in human years. In my nanas last couple years living she had a hard time keeping care of him. Now he is very thin and as bad arthritus and cant chew the dry dog food we tried giving him soft food but he wouldnt eat it and adding water made him throw up so anyone know of a dry dog food that is easy to chew and maybe even one that might help his arthritus. I think the reason he is so think is because he cant shew the food so he hast been eating. I just really want him to ba able to eat, please help

I've read so many things online and everything seems to contradict everything else. Maybe someone who is in the animal field or someone who has experience with orphaned kittens or breeding kittens can help... My husband was working at a local oil company and one of the drivers found 3 abandoned kitties in a ditch so of course, my husband took one home. I wish he had done all or none, but thats a whole other issue. I think she is between 2 and 3 weeks, but here is whats going on with her development:
-Her eyes are now completely open, but 3 days ago one was completely open and the other was only half open
- she tries to roam around a little bit, but her back legs seem to be very week and she flops over on her back a lot
- her ears still seem to be folded although in the past three days I think they have "unfolded" slightly
- she purred the other night when I had her cuddled on my chest
Can anyone make a good guess? Thanks!
