We don't have KMR or a way to get KMR. It's at Walmart but it is online only and it'd take too long to recieve the KMR. It's about 4 weeks old and what we've been giving it is cow milk. The first day we gave it the cow milk it had diarrhea but after the first day it hasn't crapped any at all.

I can't get KMR and I know it'll slowly starve to death on cow milk. So what can I use instead of KMR?

Also I can't take it to a vet.

As a plausible research project I want to look into, I was wondering, what chemistry-or-bio-related projects could I do regarding fishtanks and the chemical cycle that takes place there? I know the cycle; but I was thinking of optional ways to 'clean up' fishtanks. I know that Nitrate is soluble in everything, so that's why it's a hard component to take out of fishtanks. However, Ammonia and Nitrite shoud be possible to remove from fishtanks...
I always wanted to know, why not come up with a way to remove Ammonia from fishtanks, and thus never have to bother with the weekly partial water changes? Or with Nitrite?
What are some possible solutions? Some ideas to look into? What do people do already to address this issue? Why is it not enough/why are we still (mostly) stuck with using partial water changes?

For the past few months, my cat has been scratching at himself on his neck and ears causing bleeding sores. Recently, he has been biting and licking at this same spot on his belly and today I noticed it was red and it looks like it might be getting infected. I took him to the vet when this all started and I don't think she knew what she was talking about b/c she tried to tell me it was mange. I have THREE other animals who are 100% perfect and mange is contagious....so obviously it isn't mange. I don't know what to do with him anymore b/c he just keeps scratching at himself!! I'm more concerned with the sore on his belly b/c it looks like it may be getting infected. Any suggestions on how I can treat the sore on his belly? Are there any at home remedies anyone knows of? Or if anyone has had this similar problem...please HELP!!!

Let's pretend you're one of those uneducated people who gets onto Yahoo answers. You don't know the first thing about shelters, breeding or anything, but you want to breed your Lhasa-poo. You're naive. (Use your imagination now...) So you post a question asking:

How much can I sell a Lhasa-poo and Pomeranian's puppies for?

Are you more likely to respond to:

A) You idiot! Why are you breeding your dog? You should be ashamed, putting more unwanted puppies out there to die in shelters. You are a heartless whale. Go get yourself educated. I hope your dog bites you.

or

B) It's great that you're interested in breeding your dog, but you might want to do a little bit of research first. There are a lot of puppies and dogs out there looking for homes already in shelters... you might look into doing foster care and help rehabilitate some dogs for other people to adopt. (Insert some more helpful knowledge here)

My ferret is only 10 months old but is tail hair is already whitening and I noticed today that more hair than usual falls out when I hold him. Before, no hair ever fell out... But now it's like the same amount my cats would leave on someone (it's normal for them, though, they shed; ferrets aren't supposed to). what's going on? Does he have some sort of disease?

What's worse- this terrible crime or the 'pit bull' publicity?

Why doesn't the headline say "Fed to DOGS?"

What sort of punishment should be given to this person and how do we get the media to stop sensationalizing the 'pit bull' angle of every single story?

ANY breed could have done this if they were taught to regard the cats as prey/food...your thoughts?

Thanks.

Hi!
I am currently having some problems. My fish always go to the back of the tank everytime I go and check on them. They only swim around when I am not next to the tank. Is there a way I could help this so I could see my catfish way better.

I have this 1yr old cat, She is spayed, happy healthy little thing. The problem is she won't stop meowing... Non stop, the only time she doesn't meow is when she is sleeping, which happens to be during the day. She is an indoor/outdoor cat, she even meows when she is outside. She always has plenty of food and water, and she always gets plenty of lovin. But she just won't stop meowing.... any suggestions?

...A small - to medium sized dog (not very small that could be trodden on!) that doesn't need huge walks or lots of exercise that would be happy with a few small walks a day, that isn't too exited in its temperament that would be ideal for people that don't get about much, like elderly people.. Just for a nice companion for them?

Any links to pictures would be hugely appreciated too.

Thanks

I have a 6 year old male Shih Tzu. Everytime he goes to the groomer he gets scared and he growls and snaps. I had a groomer before that could deal with him, but I have since moved out of state. I have tried every groomer in the area where I live now, they either wont groom him at all or they call me in mid groom and say "Come get him, I cant work with this dog." Or they charge me about 100$ over the normal price because they said he acted bad and took up to much of their time. So I have been forced to face the fact I am going to have to do this myself. I bought a dog grooming kit with shears, brushes and clippers. But I am confused about something, do I shave the dog before the bath? Or do I give him a bath, dry him then shave him? Or should I bathe him then shave while his hair is still wet? And please dont tell me this breed does not need to be shaved, I know that, but he just isnt happy when his hair is long. Any info and tips will help alot, thanks!

I have a 2 month old chihuaua, I bought him from a private breeder 3 days ago. I made a mistake and gave him turkey hot dog and tuna, because he wasn't eating his puppy food.
Now, he is sick and lathargic. He wont get up. And he has dihrea. He wont move.
I examined his gums and they look nice and pink. He just looks so depressed. I am planning on taking him to the Vet if he doesn't feel better by tomorrow afternoon. What can I do meanwhile.
He only drinks water.

I am planning to name my 8 week old Malamute Logan.
I also like State names like Indiana, Montana or other surnames like Madison, Kennedy, Chester or Benson.

Can you suggest other strong & proud names like Logan?

Thanks

They were abandoned when they were newborns, I rescued them, bottle-fed them, managed to rehome 2 of them, but 2 more need a home. There are no shelters where I live, so don't tell me to take them there.
