that prevents hairball (for indoors cat)
They are both healthy, indoors and spayed. But one of them is fluffy.

When you write your recommendation, please tell me why also.
Thank you!

How can we prevent tics from getting on Otis? He likes to play in the tall weeds...that's probably where he gets them.

My 3 month old shiba inu just went around the streets and that my docter said that he can go walk around but to not go near the dogs. Is that true? He had his parvo distemper vaccination already. Is he going to get sick by just walking three blocks? All the time I kept him walking, not sniffing on anything. My neighbor says he shouldn't go out in streets untill he is 5 months. Now, I am scared! Should I disregard my docter and keep him home untill he is 5 months?

My dog is a Pomeranian boy. He's been getting my stuffed animals and putting his mouth on it and sucking. It's the weirdest thing, but it's so cute. My family and I call it his "baby". He was taken away from his mom and sister pretty early, so maybe it has to do with that? Maybe he think it's her? haha, I don't know. Please give me any ideas!

To everyone who answered, thank you. He was just too sick. His kidneys and his liver went into failure. He was rotting from the inside out in his mouth. We made the decision to stop the suffering. That was the most difficult thing I have ever had to do. My vet says it was for the best, but that doesn't make my heart stop hurting. If your dog gets bit by a CottonMouth snake get ready for devistation.

My little buddy goes up to the top of the tank and floats there for extended periods. He isn't tilted and doesn't seem off-balance when he does this, and I can still see him breathing through his mouth. He swims normally around the tank (2.5 gal) without any problems. I know that Bettas are labyrinth fish which breathe normal air like we do, but he's staying up at the top for several minutes at a time. Is this normal? Also, he has not been eating his pellets and I really don't know when I'll get a chance to go to the pet store to get a different kind (such is life as a college freshman). I've read that bettas are very picky eaters. Will he eat if he gets too hungry, even if he doesn't like the food? I don't want my new lil friend to starve to death! :(

P.S. : Thanks very much to all the people who answered my previous question. I appreciate the help and he seems to be doing better now that I have a lamp over his tank. :)

My lab is a great girl....she just barks a lot! We are moving to an apartment for the first time, and I want to make sure she doesn't bother our neighbors. Any suggestions?

I am going to adopt him either way, but I would like to know what I am going to have to do for him. He is going in for another test soon (he's 7 weeks old) to make sure.

What can I do to make his life easier? How is he different from other kittens? I'm borderline anemic, will he effect my health, or I his?

Any help or advice would be much appreciated!

he got his tongue cut while they were trimming his face. it is sort of split at the tip. he refuses to eat. i'm sure it hurts. but also, he got cut so short (i'm never going back there again) that i think he is actually ashamed of his hair cut because he won't do anything he used to do and just sits or sleeps. he won't play or wag his tail or follow me around like he used to. i'm new to having puppies. what should i do to help him eat? how long will he be so mopey? will he ever go back to his normal self?

My cat is drinking and peeing a little too much. i think i should take her to the vet but am afraid of the bill as i am sure they will have to run tests. Anyone have a ballpark estimate as to how much it would cost?

We have a year old male neutered cat who refuses to go in the litter box when it is upstairs next to the other ones. We have three cats, a litter box for each (one uncovered, two covered). The other cats have no problem, but he will not use the litter box. My mom took to locking him in the downstairs bathroom with the litter box and he has no problem going in there, but as soon as we let him go, he goes back on the upstairs floor. Do you think he would benefit from having a litter box downstairs? Should we get a fourth litter box and put it downstairs? My mom wants to find a home for him, but I can't bear to let him go... he's my cat... my favorite cat and it breaks my heart to even think about it. Please help....
