His name is T-Bo and I got him maybe at the end of last month. He is a father but I only live with him and I dont know how old he is. All he does is eat but if it is dry food he will starve his self until he cant take it anymore...He doesnt use his litter box. He crys when he wants to go outside. He comes in the house at 6 or 5 in the morning. If I give him CANNED cat food he starts to crap alot and throw up. He sleeps alot and scratches anyone who touches his stomach. Whats wrong with him? And he farts alot and everytime her farts liquid comes out and white stuff floats around in it. Help!! 10 Points to best answer.

My fiance and I are moving to Boulder Colorado in July, we currently live in South west Florida. We're moving from a city that is only 9 feet above sea level to a city that is over 5,000 feet above sea level. We have an African Grey Parrot that has never been at an altitude that high. We've heard of animals having problems adjusting to the change in altitude. I know for us people, we need to drink alot more water because dehydration is common at higher alititudes... But what should I be worried about for our bird? What are the odds of him having a negative reaction to the sudden change? We're planning on driving when we move, and from Florida it would take us a couple days to get there, and in a moving truck, we wouldn't be rushing our trip. Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I love my Maine Coon Tortoiseshell and white cat. The only problem is she can get a bit annoying. She's the friendliest cat I have ever met, and she loves to greet you and lick you. The only problem is when I am on my computer, she loves to sit in front of the keyboard and mouse so I can't work. Is she doing this just to annoy me? I ask because when I pick her up and hold her in bed, she purrs and purrs but only stays a couple minutes. She will sit in front of my keyboard all day long. I pick her up and put her down, but she jumps right back up. I have put her down like 50 times in a row before, but she still kept jumping back up. What can I do to stop this annoying behavior?

We don't have fenced yard and live in a town where there are no ordinances on how many cat's a person can have. They run free and also poop freely in our yard and extended acreage around our house.

We have a corresponding field past our back yard, and cats love to poop in the mole dirt mounds. It is also an area we prefer our dogs (one 7 year old black lab and small 5 month old dachshund) to do their duty.

However, I'm noticing more and more that our puppy like to eat the cat poop and rarely eats any of her food in the house (besides small scrapes from the table).

I can't keep my eye on her full time while she is outside. But I'm wondering if there is some way or product that will deter her from eating more poop, and possibly getting really sick.

Thank you for all your help. I'd had to lose her (she's the ONLY other female in this house!!)

why?

I am looking for a new food because what I am currently feeding him he scratches his belly and chews on his leg. He doesn't have fleas so its got to be a allergy to something.

I am going to be buying a horse hopefully sometime in December (the vet check is in December so hopefully sometime after that). Then in April my mom and I are going to CA for my grandma's 90th birthday party. My sister will be staying home with my dad, and she said she'll go up occasionally to ride my horse while I'm gone. She has ridden before, but isn't that experienced of a rider.

She doesn't know her leg commands, how to put on a saddle, or how to put on a bridle. I am trying to tell her that if she wants to ride my horse, Star, while I'm gone, that she's going to need to lean her leg commands and how to tack up a horse both western AND english.

Star is a dressage horse and you need leg commands to control her. She'll listen to hand commands, but won't listen to it when you want her to stop.

How do you give a flea bath to 3 week old puppies? Is this possible or should I wait until the puppy gets older? What kind of shampoo should I use now if it is possible to give her a bath?

My landlord called and told me he'd be showing my apt. I was out today and unable to do some finishing up touches for an apartment showing like finish my dishes, pick my up dirty clothes, and clear my tables of papers. I told him it was messy but I am not around as much as a warning before he showed anyone "today". Another day would be different.

Anyway, he proceeded to ask me that if I was gone, "Do you still have your cat?"

I told him, "yes."

He said, "If you are not home I would like you to remove your cat from the building then."

I'm told him, "If I'm not home it be no more than a weekend visiting parents."

He told me, "Still, then you should get rid of your cat."

I can understand his concern that cats get naughty, but never once was I told, "You can have a cat UNLESS you decide to leave for the weekend."

Okay so my grandma lives in an old house with an old dark basement and my mom say a really weird bug and we dont know what it was. To describe, it had a somewhat oval shape and two long legs like a spider but didnt look like one. It was black and grey and its body almost one inch long and total diameter about 3.5 inches. If you all dont know what it was were can I go to find out?

I am going to be starting my huskies on a partial raw diet, and will be making it myself. I am buying my meat grinder Friday, and I already have the recipe I will start with. I am just looking for any tips or advice from those of you already making your own. What is your dog's favorite, things you add in, etc.. Thanks in advance for any ideas and suggestions !

How often do you walk your dog and play with your dog in an average day? At night, do you play with your dog a lot in the house? I am curious to see how much time people on average spend with their dog. I'm looking forward to your responses.

I had to move my cats' food bowls and litter boxes because we're re-arranging everything in the house to make room for a new baby. It's not the first time I've moved the litter boxes, but it is the first time I've moved the food.

One of my cats, a 5 year old spayed female, has been freaking out ever since I moved her stuff. She still goes to where the food bowl used to be and cries for hours, she's been running all over the house top speed all fluffed up and being really mean to the other cat. I've shown her where the food and litter box are a dozen times and she's eaten and used the box, but she's still acting crazy.

I know it takes a while for cats to get used to changes in their environment, but it's been a week and she's still doing this. There's no possibility of putting everything back where it was because that room is going to be the baby's room. I'm going to go insane too if this doesn't stop soon. What can I do?

This can be the best gift IF the giving is well orchestrated. It can be the worst gift, though, if the receiver is un-prepared. Here's a partial check list of things that need to be provided (as Christmas gifts) as well.

1) Credit voucher to vet for well puppy care and elective surgeries as needed (spay/neuter, ear crop, any special eye lid surgery) 600 - 1500.

2) Cash Card for any emergency veterinary care, at or away from home (cuts, broken bones, bloat, zipper surgery) 2000.

3) Credit voucher for Puppy Kindergarten (50) and one for Novice Level Obedience (95).

4) Vari Kennel (90), Ex-Pen (90), and Kennel Run (500).

5) Bag of premium puppy food AND a credit voucher to cover the first year feed expense (150 - 400 ... depending on size of dog).

Stocking Stuffers:
Food and water bowls, training supplies, toys, bed, book: The Art of Raising a Puppy.

Question: How to organize these 'gifts' to make sure that the whole gift is given and not just the puppy?
