Pets - 15 September 2007

About 3 days ago i decided to buy her different food, the wet kind in the little packages, well she didn't like it, she licked a little but left pretty much all of it there. Later that day I went out and that night got home and her meowing sounded hoarse :/ and she has done this thing where it looks like she is throwing up but makes no sound, she's done this only twice. But she's acting normal other than that, she runs around and plays. Is it a hairball? I started giving her Petromalt today so i'm hoping this will help in case it is a hairball. Please help, i'm really worried :/

We know we musn't hold it for at least a week after getting it but when we CAN hold it, is there any particular method you would use? I don't want to annoy or scare the poor thing when it's small so that it will hate me for life. It will probably get used to me and I'm just being a rather caucious parent. Sorry snake!

Will a female in heat loose her will to eat? She hasnt really eaten anything in the last three days. She usually eats six cups of food a day, but she has hardly had three cups in the last four days. She is still drinking still and will eat her treats fine, but for some reason her food isnt interesting to her. She was just vet check, and got an A+, and there in no way she has been bred as I do not leave her outside unattended, AT ALL!!!!! I dont know what to do. I am worried about her because she is starting to look a little more slim.
Oh and after the last time trying to feed her today, she threw up her food. Should I take her to the vet? Or is this normal because she is in heat? (Dont worry I will be getting her fixed soon, so please dont nag cause I know the Pros and Cons already.) And if you are wondering this is the same dog(120 lb mastiff) that has issues suddenly about going into her outside kennel to potty. If this makes a difference. She is also pacing and panting alot more.

She's only 2 years old and was in excellent health before this nightmare began. Keeping her well hydrated is obviously critical but I'm particularly interested in suggestions concerning specific foods to entice her with. Thanks in advance for any helpful ideas.

I've been trying to find someone to help me but so far no luck, I've tried Victors custom Tack and Schneider Saddlery but nothing. So here is the wish list straight from my Girlfriend.
•1" Leather English Dressage Reins.
Yes One inch, this seems to be a problem.
• Buckle Ends
• Black or Brown Leather
• Same color stitching
• No braiding, Grips or Markers
• No Martingale Stops
• Brass Hardware
Can anyone help me find someone who can make this to order. Please help. Her Birthday is October 8th and I've had no success at all. I need names and numbers or Websites or something. I live in the Milwaukee area so if anyone knows of someplace out here that would be Ideal. Thanks so much to anyone that can help.

I want to get one of these and I found a little 7mo on Craigslist to be rehomed nearby (I know to go check out the dog, where it's kept, conditions and health etc) so can someone please tell me about this breed? I love the way these guys look, and so far I've heard nothing bad about them. Usually I get my dogs from the pound, this is a first getting this guy from somewhere else. It's a family that apparently doesn't have time for the puppy (how sad) and our dog needs a friend to play with, preferrably a small one. Our dog is great with all other animals-- even the little ferrets.

I'm trying to identifify a plant, I think I might have hornwort, or it would be another family of it? Please list similar plants that look like hornwort? Please?

One misc question: Tetra makes a 50 watt heater for 2-15 gallon? Is that even safe since it's 50 watts? I don't want to take a chance of cooking my favorite betta!
Thanks!

I have a one year old golden retriever who is always jumping on my kitchen counters. She eats any food she can find there, and we're scared that one day she'll eat something important or harmful. She loves bottle caps (plastic ones) so one day we put a cap with a few drops of tobasco sauce on it on the counter and she got it, spit it out, then got it again and chewed it up, so tobasco sauce doesn't affect her very well. I need some suggestions on how to make her stop jumping on the counter. I really don't want anything that could hurt her, and I only want real answers please!
Thanks so much!

She is 8 years old and has always loved being outside and especially when we are out there. Now I have to put her on a leash and walk her down the street to even get her to pee. If I take her out in our backyard her tail is between her legs and she stays right up against me. If I take her down the driveway and walk out the street she will "pee" right away. She has recently been diagnosed with whipworms, and is being treated, but that shouldn't ahve anything to do with this problem.

Our cats do strange and random things that can make us laugh. So what does your cat do that can always make you smile?

Example: Any toys my cat has I inevitably find in her water dish, in the bathtub, in the sink...and in the toilet if I forget to put the seat down. It always makes me laugh to see her bring her toy over to the water and drop it in, pat it around and then bring it to me so I can throw it. I can't explain why she does it but it always makes me laugh.

I check through Craigslist's Pets section on a daily basis. At least three ads a day in my Northern NJ area, are from people who 'just got' a puppy a month ago, likely from a pet shop- and now they 'realize' that they just don't have enough time to take care of it and give it the attention it needs. Basically what they are saying is, "I didn't realize how much work and commitment it took to take care of an animal, and now I wanna give it back."
I just don't understand people. And namely, I don't understand a society that can't be real with themselves. Just 'any old person' should not be able to sell dogs. The people who 'dispense' dogs, as it were, should screen people, and check up on them. Not ONLY the shelters, but anyone who 'brokers' a dog.
I am tired of puppymills, and puppy auctions, and disposable dogs. Sick of it.

Let's say you bought a dog(any age older than 1month) from a reputable breeder and on her contract it says "This dog should not live soley outdoors". Well the breed loves the outdoors.

So what do you do? Obey the breeder?

The other night, my kitty was curled up asleep at the foot of my bed and purring so loudly it woke me up! It was so funny...would love to know what she was dreaming about. Has anyone else heard of a cat doing this? Is it common?
