Would a large storage bin about 4x3 and about 30 inches tall be big enough for at least one adult? also, could you use hamster bedding for substrate? I have seen it being used on videos posted by breeders.

my cat is very lethargic and weak this morning and his tongue isn't going back inside his mouth and there's drool everywhere. when i pick him up he wants down and he walks slowing back to where i picked him up from.

to take him to the emergency vet before 8 am is 40 dollars more than to wait until after 8 am. i am extremely short on money at the moment...

should i wait until 8 am to have more money for possible treatment or go now....

It was 3 days ago my cat started acting listless, hiding, not eating or drinking, I have given her droplets of water and offered her variety of things she just throws it up instantly, she doesn't seem to be sleeping either she just sits down and stays very still eyes strained to be opened. She is not cleaning herself, I don't see anything in her mouth but she struggles and I am afraid of hurting her if there is something in her throat. I live 50 miles from anything, I'm very attached and unfortunately very broke-financially and physically, please help..

I have a 7 year old boxer female. She has developed a small lump, that when I found it was the size of a nickle, it is hard. I took her to the vet & he said, it was nothing, & though it was hard, he thought it might be a "fat deposit." her health has never been an issue. But now she has 3 more. They are all hard, & the original now the size of a silver 1/2 dollar, the other one is the size of a quarter, & the newest 1 is about the size of a nickle. They are all on the under cariage of her belly, & the largest 1 is on her side. Now a neighbor who works as a vettech, told me to take her somewhere else, cause it could be cancerous since they are hard nodules, & the one seems to be getting larger. Does anyone have any experience w/ this? I am taking her to a new vet,they scheduled her in 2wks, cause they want her records 1rst. She is like one of our children, & infact we got her exactly 1 week to the day our 1rst son was born. We are scared & sad, Any help would begreatly appreciated.

My grandmother is looking after her friends house and cat, and I go round every now and then to keep her company but the cat doesn't like us. Whenever We go near her she runs away and seems quite scared. How do I stop the cat being scared of us?

Of ALL the flea control products for dogs, which works the best for your pets? Please tell me your good and bad experiences with different flea control products. I'm kind of torn between a few of the leading products (frontline, advantage, revolution) and want to know what your experiences have been with different products. Whats good? Whats bad? Why?

Thanks so much!

The dog is fluffy and white (shih tzu x maltese) and the staining under his eyes is very dark, I can get the actual gunk off but how do I clean the staining? I don't want to hurt him so I didn't put shampoo on his face, do I need to do that? He is only 3 months old and so tiny!!

I dont want it to be a big dog when it gets older. And it has to be a cute dog. Preferably Teacup size or something small like it.

We recently took in a rescued feral kitten, appx 6-8 weeks old. He was found in a very rural woodsy area with extreme elements and wildlife but was not around humans so far as we know. The person who found him kept him in a barn for a week while looking for someone to take him in... we have had him for a week now.

He is NOT ajusting at all. We have had other cats and have never had one like this. He will not purr or rub against us or show any signs of affection, when we pet him he sits paralyzed and looks miserable. If we ignore him he hides under the couch... he comes out at night when we are all in bed- if we didn't force him out we'd never see him. It's like living with a rat!

He freaks when he sees a hand coming to pet or feed, he will hiss and growl and try to run. He is okay once he is held, doesn't bite then but like I said he won't purr or anything, he just balls up and bides his time until he can run and hide again.

Can this cat ever be domesticated?

I have a beautiful, very fury Persian kitty. In general he is very hostile, grumpy cat. Most of the time he doesn't like to be pet, touched, or held and if anyone tries to he bites. His hair is tangled and matted very badly because he won't allow us to brush him. The mats are huge and go all the way down to his sikin and it is very painful for him. I tried to take him to the groomer's but he went nuts when I tried to put him in his carrier. Then I tried to take him in my arms and hold him in the back seat while my husband drove. He freaked out again, bit me, scratched me, and then peed all over me. So we couldn't take him, and had to cancel the appointment. Then we tried to hire a groomer to come out to the house but they wanted three hundred dollars (we can't afford that). So his mats have been getting worse, and worse. He is very uncomfortable and absoluteoly miserable right now. I feel so badly for him. I want to help him but I don't know how. Any suggestions?!!!!

We got our dog from an animal shelter when she was only 8 weeks old. I was 5 months pregnant at the time and she really took to liking me and being very loving and gentle. Then when I had my baby she began showing me her teeth alot! My baby is now 6 months old and I have another 2 1/2 year old child. My dog is still showing me (and only me) her teeth! No growling or bitting... Nothing like that. Just showing me her teeth. I'm not mean to her. I don't hit or yell or anything but I have started to stay away from her. Why do you think she's acting like this towards me and what can I do to make her stop? Do you think she's a threat to my daughters?

Also, please read my question I left earlier about my dog being pregnant. This was going on long before the pregnancy though...

Is that bad or too strong for a cat just even one minor spray? She started licking forever and probably making a lot of silva and drooling, maybe a little foaming. hahah, poor cat, it looked so funny. she ran away under the bed. what we should do is take the cat in for a dental cleaning or get a special treatment at pets mark. however, the doctor veterinarian said the cats teeth were ok condition.
