I can't take it anymore. This is the 4th or 5th time my cat has had cystitis in 3 years. Now, I have two children, both under the age of 2. I can't have her "tinkling" around the house. Is it wrong to ask the vet to put her down? There is no cure and no medicine helps. I'm at my wits end.

So about 2 days ago I noticed this thing on my dogs cheek, at first I thought it was mud but when I went to wipe it off it didn't come off. It is grayish mud colored and sticks out a little like a tiny round ball (like the size of the "o" button the keyboard, but a little smaller). I'm really worried about it because now the left side of his face (the side it is on) it all puff and it is making his eye all red and squinty because it's pretty close to it. He has been itching it too. Any ideas on what it is?

You see I only cook for my dogs, like Liver is there favorite and Chicken is there next and i sometimes cook beef cheeks and beef toung for them and every so often i make a whole pot roast. These things they love very much, but now my youngest just had puppys and she is a puppy her self. Anyhow the vet told me today that i could not feed her that type of food anymore, only puppychow from now on. And i said what will she eat meanwhile, cause she does not like caned dog food. She said she'll eat it when she gets hungry. My gosh shes breast feeding all these lil pups isent this a bad time to ween her off of anything with all these 7 pups waiting to be feed. What a bad choice of things to do for her right now especially, what do you think? All input is greatly appreciated. Thanks chow**

However, I have three dogs and a cat. I can't afford those top brands. Yet, flea control I've bought from Hartz and Sargents haven't worked at all. Are there any other flea control products out there that work just as well as the popular brands without the elevated price tag?

I am the proud owner of two very tame pets. one, a male lionhead rabbit and the other a female syrian hamster. The hamster is 10 months old and the lionhead rabbit is 6 months old. I would like them to become good friends. I don't expect to put them nose to nose and cuddle each other; i just want them to like play nicely. I have already held the bunny close to the hamster while the hamster is in her cage, but will they be ok together outside their cages? If accidents can occar, please tell me so I can keep them seperated.

I love Yorkies! Plz tell me everything you know about the breed and what it is like living with one. I am aware that they use to hunt rats, but is it ok if a Yorkie will live with a hamster and rabbit? The hamster is in the utility room on a surface too high for a Yorkie to reach or jump at and the rabbit lives outside with one of them cages where the run is attached to the bottom of the cage. Also, how much are vet bills, yearly vaccinations, average price per week if you have a Yorkie?

thx

also could you please find the cutest picture of a yorkie puppy, yorkie adult, yorkie show dog and yorkie wallpaper for your pc please. This is the wallpaper I currantly have.

I am going to flea bomb my house sometime in the next week or two, but I am concerned about my animals. I know I'll have to take them out of the area for 2-3 hours (at least thats what the box says..) so does that mean I can put them all in one area of the house -say, the upstairs- bomb downstairs wait a few hours, then let them go downstairs. Maybe the next day put them all downstairs, while I bomb the upstairs.
Would that hurt them at all? Or would I have to completely remove them from the house and do it all at once?

I have 4 cats, 4 rats, a dog and a snake, and as I have somewhere I can bring the rats and the dog to I am not sure what I could do with the cats and the snake if I'd have to have them all leave the house.

That Husky Lover and Dog Owner are the same person? They give the same basic answers, they are both nasty, and they give each other best answer. That seems wrong to me. Do you think they are the ones cloning people?

What they do is drill a hole in the side of these animals and put a large plastic plug in place of the hole. They then test the food that CONSTANTLY leaks out of the huge hole in the side of their bodys. They also reach their arms into the holes to move around the intestines of the animals. They have been doing these experiments for years. It's the nastiest thing I have ever seen.

after reading the dog wisperer and watching dog borstal,i have definatly come to the conclusion that my staff reckons he is leader of the pack,any suggestions on how to fix this problem i was told to .1,ignore him for 20 mins when i enter the room. 2,pretend to eat his food before him. 3,only give him attention when i have called him and told him to sit. 4,do not give him attention when he demands it!he does not really listen to me and have to say is very bossy.due to the fact he is not keen on other dogs im wary of a training class. any suggestions? thanks

I just adopted him on Monday. He is gray and white. His name is Wolf, (although I may change it), He's not hurt or sick. He seem's happy when he makes this sound. I don't really know how to explain it. I was raised around German Shepherd Dogs my whole life, but I never heard a dog make a sound like this. It's almost like he is trying to talk to me. Is this normal?

How can there be 3 DP identities. All 3 with different points.

DP1

DP2
http://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=AvlIfzzFwRAiIUoq63RZZRAAAAAA;_ylv=3?show=SRzCFP53aa

DP3
http://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=AlQ_jhRLVuSTb81ywJmENBvL7BR.;_ylv=3?show=YdlF7m3Gaa

All 3 are new accounts. None of these are the real DP. How is Yahoo allowing this to happen? This could be happening to anyone. And Yahoo doesn't do anything about it? I would hate for this to be happening to me. This is actually illegal. Pretending to be someone else.
I think Yahoo should change the way they do things so that this isn't able to happen. I think also people doing this should be charged with stalking, and harassment.
Yahoo can tell who is doing this by the ISP number. I believe they should get off their butts and have these people removed and blocked permanently.

This could be you next time.

I found 2 orphan kittens by the road and decided to help them.
I started feeding them milk not knowing it was bad for them :( I didn't have any internet access cause i was at the beach.
once I got back home I did research and to my horror milk is very bad for them .. :(
that very moment I went to the local pet store and bought some KMR..
during these 3 days they didn't poo at all, only pee and to my surprise they knew how to use the litter box.
the pee is clear which I read is good but they won't poo, I have tired stimulating them with a warm cotton and towel but nothing :(
they seem very happy though, their stomachs are not round, they only cry when they are hungry, no vomit and love playing with each other. they are roughly 4-5 weeks and i starting giving them solid food mixed with KMR which they enjoy :) this is day 5 and no poo though, i wanted to go to the vet but my mum doesn't want to pay and im a student with next to no money.. all my money goes to uni items and rent, help :(
