My 9 month old Maine Coon cat was spayed last week. Her operation went well and her cut on her belly is healing just fine; however, I have noticed that now after a week she is getting a little pot belly/lump right under the incision on her belly. Is this normal? Has this ever happened to anybody's cat after they were spayed? (link)
i have 6 cats all of them are nutered both the males and females have this little belly on them i am pritty sure it is normal and they are all healthy.


my cat ran away and im extreamly upset about it have any advice, to sorta get over it ?? (link)
1) put posters up with pictures of your cat on it at local vets shooping centers, and other places people go you never know someone may have found him.
2)Its better to keep pets like cats inside as a indoor cat and taking them outside on a leish if they are not to afraid.

3) try and be more carful by making sure doors are closed.


my cat has this really bad cough and im not sure if its a hairball. we cant afford to take him to the vet. what should i do? (link)
well if it sounds like your cat is trying to hack somthing up kinda like when you have a cold and you try to hack up flem then its a hairball, try hairball remedy and pet food that help prevent hairballs but it should pass or he'll hack it up its a natural thing and does no harm to your pet but as an owner of 6 cats its good to put some money a side gust incase you do haave to take him to the vets.

Hope this helps.


I'm Christian and I know lust is wrong. That's why i was super-relieved when I got more into studying the Bible and whatnot and I was distracted by my former thoughts...that was a while ago though. And now they're coming back, especially about the boy that I'm infatuated with...and i don't want to bring him into this, he's a Christian boy!! I don't wanna think of him like that...or think like that at all.

like I said, I know in the Bible it says several times lust and sexual immorality is sin...but i need help stopping the thoughts. I'm praying! if you have any advice, please offer it, if you don't please pray for me. (link)
i know waht you belieave in but trust me lust is not a sin but something wonderful as is love. It is in our human nature to feel such things to give compassion to oneanother. You are a growing young female who is getting neew feelings and trust me they only get stronger, i am 18 and i have gone throught those I had many guys who were my friends and felt those strong feeling and urges, but i held out untill i was 18 amd had my first Bf. You could try going out as friends and playing mini golf seeing movies and spending time together doing things you both enjoy and when the time is right tell him how you feel towards him and see how he feels for you. I may not be a christian but i know in the bible it may say those things but i belieave that is says that to protect you from doing any harm but if thier is one thing lust, love and caring for another human of the opposit or same gender is somthing that isnt completley rong it is simply our human nature.

I hope this helps you.

I'm a guy.. 19. How do I make sex more enjoyable for my girlfriend? What different movements should I do while I'm actually inside of her... any tips? (link)
well you could try going slower, teasing her by only putting your head inside, also could try rotating your hips in a circle. Another thing let her go on top and find what she likes as well >_< try playing with her breast if she is this helps stimulate her lol

I'm usually pretty happy, but now I'm not.
My dog, Sadie, was born a year after me, and I've never known life without her. She's 13, though, and a big dog. She's had some health problems, and I know that she has little time left. I'm scared. My cat died when I was nine, and that was bad, but she's my best friend, and I'm crying just typing this. I'm really scared that she'll go. I know and understand that everyone goes through this, and that she'll have to go someday, but I'm dreading coming home from my first day of high school and not having my happy girl there to meet me. I, personally, think that she has a week or two left. I am going to my first overnight camp (I know, late), and I'm really looking forward to it, but it would ruin my summer if Sadie died during that, or during our family's cross-country vacation. I know, I'm being very selfish, but I need help. I'm scared that I'll go into depression. Any ideas for getting over the pain and to stop worrying and enjoying life? (link)
I know its hard to say good bye to a dead friend sicne you've had so long, but think of what a great life she's had and spending it with you she will rember you in this world and the next.


ok this is a little wierd for me so please be open minded about this, i have a 13 year old daughter and well i need to know the age that girls start have periods i'm her father and only parent and i just don't know these things about girls, and also she said that she wanted to know what sex felt like and that someone told her that it would hurt at 13 years old, but i told her that she shouldn't think about things like that that she should wait until she got married but still she asked and it deserves an answer so i kinda need a womans advice on this because i'm clueless on either part, so please help, thanks (link)
ok gust so you know i am 18 female, and when mine first started i was 13 it started some time that year but each girl is diffrent but the majority of girls start at 13 so to help her like what my mom did for me was bought me some sanatary napkins (pads) gust regular. The best thing to do is to make sure she has some with her when she goes to school because their is no knowing when it could start but most teachers understand and will help out. As for the sex part I guess it depends on the person but she is only 13 so the best she should know as what i was told was that it would hurt at first and their will be a bit of blood but that is usually only the first time.

I hope this helps you


Why does my male dogs penis get red and weird at the top. Is he horny or something? Lol, this is weird. Can someone explain? (link)
yeah he will probably start humping everything, to avoid this getting him nutered is ideal because i dont think you want to find out he is the father of alot of puppies >_


Well, when my current dog dies, we're getting a new one
She a fairly old dog
I want a husky
A male one

The thing is, I have two cats
Twins
Boy and girl
Pete and Peach
They get along nicely with m current dong, Daphie, and Daphie was in the family since I was in 1st grade I believe

My cats came around 3rd grade
They were 4 weeks old
I'm cant remember anything about when they met
I dunno if they didnt like each other at first or not
They random get into fights now sometimes
When my dog with invade their personal space too much
And they'll have to stay in seperate rooms for awhile so my dog doesnt like, eat one

Anyway;; my question is
With this new dog, is there ANYWAY to get my cats and the dog to like eachother if they dont when they meet?

Sorry this was long
13-F (link)
ok warning you now huskies dont really get along with cats and will kill them, gust thought i should warn you of this that and tehy are hight maintenence and very active dogs that will need to be shaved if you live in a warm climate\.


I recently studed my dog. The feamle became pregnant and had six puppies prematurly. Sadly none of them survived. Am I still owed the stud fee? (link)
no puppies no fee, and unless you are a trained breeder you probably should not be breesing the animal when their is enouf animals at the local shelter for people to adopt, do you dog the favor and get her nutered she'll be happy that you did.


I am trying to do the whole animal shelter support thing. Aside from volunteering and donating toys and food I want to adopt a cat. The local animal shelter is great but I need some advice about a certain possible pet. I searched on Petfinder and saw that my local shelter has a Maine Coon Cat kitten up for adoption.

Now, I know there are different breeds of cat but are Main Coon Cats good choices for pets? Are they usually more aggressive than other cats and kittens? The shelter says that this cat is polydactyl (what are polydactyl cats anyway?) and will probably be larger than the average housecat--does this mean it's going to be a mean cat? Should I go for this specific cat breed or stay away and look for a "normal" house cat? (link)
Maincoons are one of the most loving cats and get very big yes they are a good pet but, think about the other older pets that may have been their for much longer, a kitten has a whole life ahead of it but an older cat dosnt and would appreciate what you are doing for it nad making it happy. Also I had a main coon Charlie we rescued him for a local vet who was going to uthnise him he was 25 pounds and a complete love sponge but we ended up spending over well probably $500. on vet bills on him trying to save him and what peopel dont know is that since the main coon breed is so big that they are prone to hear failure and that is what he died of after the 3 years we had him for, this could happen to them at any age.
I hope this helps.


ok well
i made out w/ this dude 3 times
and i dont no if he likes me because my friends say he does that with younger people alll the time butim not sure what to think
im 13 and hes 16
helpp! (link)
honestly you are wayyy to young to be doing that stuff yet, no matter what anyone els is doing. I am 18 and i gust got my first Bf last year trust me you want to make the right decisions and honestly that guy probably has made out with other girls because he cannot control the urges he is having he is thinkingg with the rong head, and you really dont want to end up with someone who could ahve a std or sti becasue that will stay with you for life. wait untill you are 16-18 to be doing stuff like that.


my female dog is on her cycle.
she is still bleeding ,she did mate,
can she still get preagnant (link)
probably, but rember it is good to get your dog nutered unless youare a professional breeder because well the dog would be happier not spending her time on litter after litter, this can cause problems after a while, and to more unneed animals in this world becuase people now dont know how to take care of theri animals that all ready exsist.


I'm looking to get a small(ish), inexpensive pet. Preferably one that's not too much to maintain, and also won't be too smelly.
Obviously I know if the cage or whatnot is cleanred properly that shouldn't be too much of an issue, but you know what I mean.
I live in an apartment (well, private house), so noise is also a factor.


Also, if you suggest a fish, maybe suggest a certain kind instead of just "get a fish". Like name or what color it is and what not. And also maybe let me know the price range and what they eat.


Thanks! =) (link)
Since you live somewhere small a cat or a dog isnt good, a fish like a beta (crown tale) or even a doubble tale gold fish would be good they are easy maintenence and inexpencive not to mention gold fish live fairly long as long as you get fish that are in the same size tehy wont eat each other. Another good pet could be a small lizard like a gecko or a pale agama, mind you geckos are pritty expencie along with the cage and equipment but agamas are fairly well priced and kinda cute looking for a lizard and can be held. i know fish dont generally small but lizards may have a slight smell.

hope this helps


I would really like to get a cat, but the problem is my fiancé is allergic to cats (it's not TOO bad with hives or anything, but his eyes really water and he sneezes quite a lot around cats).

My mother says that she used to be allergic to cats, but got one and her allergies went away within a year-- but only to that one cat. She still had reactions while around cats other than the one she owned.

Can a person really become immune to a certain animal if they are around it enough? Or should I just make my fiancé get allergy shots? (link)
the allergie shot is a good idea and for a person who is allergic to cats i would suggest not getting a long haird cat something short so not to bug his allergies, minde you a pet is for life and is hard on the animal if you decide to part with them :( if he is confterbul and understands that this pet is for life and will nto want to get ride of it then i would say the allergie shots are best and a short haird cat. Also dont go to pet stores for a kitty because they come from backyeard breeders most of the time, and thinkl of how happy you could make another pet if you adopted from a rescue and giving it a new chance of life >_< also their more fun in pairs >_<
hope this helps >_<


Can u put a female and male beta in the same bowl, and what do i do after the eggs hatch? (link)
no you cannot put any other betas in to the same bowl and if you want to breed them you have to have 3 diffrent tanks, when put together you have to watch them because if they start fighting you have to remove one of them and try again another time if it does work the male beta takes care of the eggs untill they hatch when that happens you have to remove the male beta because he will eat his babies >_< yes it is a very very hard process.


Hey, i hope there is someone who can help me and give good advice about my cat Flea.
Flea was a stray kitten and was in very bad shape when we found him on the street. He hardly had any hair and was such a little scruff ball, that's why we named him Flea. Shortly after we took him in he became this playfull, cute little friendly kitten who loved playing hide and seek, and would basically play with anything we gave him. He grew a beautiful coat of pitch black fur and became shiny and fluffy.
Then about 1½ years later we took in another kitten who we though was a female, because that's what we were told, and were none the wiser.
Flea and Joker were fine with eachother almost instantly, but then as time went by, Flea started to become very unfriendly towards Joker.
Joker is extremely playful and very lovable, and just wants to play with Flea all the time, but Flea keeps attacking him.
Flea has changed towards us as well and won't even come near us anymore. When we try to give him attention and play with him he hisses at us and runs away. He spends most of his time under the couch or outside.
This has seriously broken my heart, because i love him so much and i really don't know what to do to get him back to normal again.
Can anyone please help??? (link)
Well it is probably hard for him to understand that another male has entered his territory and he is unhappy. Espically if tehy are both not nutered this can be a bit of trouble because they can start to spray everywhere marking their territory and it is unplesant in the house. you have to teach him and show him that you still love him.


I'm trying to come up with a title for a painting of a cow. I was just wondering if anyone knows if there is a difference between cows that are raised for their milk versus cows raised for beef??

Like if you just look at a cow, can you tell which it is? Are the black and white ones for milk and the redish brown ones for beef? or what?
(my picture is a redish brown one)
Thanks! (link)
well cows that are raised for milk are usually the typical black and white cows that have the sack where the milk is produced and cows for beef do not and are only one solid color like brown.
i hope this answers your question


I had a Leopard gecko when i was younger, I loved Paco(my lizard) unfortunatley we had to get rid of him cause my mom was doing all the caring and i was doing all teh playing. I want to care for a lizard now that i am older. I want to be able to hold him/her and i don't want to spend over 50 dollars in buying the pet itself. I want to be able to clean the tank fairly easily and enjoy the presence of my pet. I was looking at some green anoles but heard that they do not like to be handled??? is this true??? what lizard do you recommend for me??? Or if you have an idea of another type of reptile with the care instructions and characteristics i meantioned let me know??? Thank you! (link)
well lepord geckos are very docile adn a good lizard for children and can be held, but since you are looking for something reletivly simple a pale agama might be something you like? you can hold them and the males ahve a nice blue under theri necks and tehy resemble a smaller and a bit diffrent virson of a bearded dragon or a horney devil they are cute and do move fast on occasion. I was looking to get one or a gecko and learned all of this off of google on reptile websignts and at the petstore. if you allready ahve the aquariem for the lizard these guys are fairly cheap, idk about cleaning thought but you have to be luck that you dont have to scoop a cat box >_< lol

i hope this helps


my cat will eat ANYTHING, plastic toys, rubber bands, etc. etc. is there anyway to break this habit without completely cat proofing my house? im just worried that my little kitty will get sick. (the cat is about two years old) (link)
this is serious, and can be dangerous for your cat if he/she eats small strings or elastics the perfect thing to bo would be to pick up any fourin things like string that he/she can swallow and elastic bands and when you shee him/her trying to eat one to simply scold them mind you , you do have to be firm with them and a little tap on the head will do or to the nose even a squirt bottle with water can teach them that it isnt right. Another thing with small strings and elsatic that isnt good for them because if it isnt digested it can get cought in the intestine adn entangle itsself in their causeing the cat pain and disconfert not to mention that he will not be able to digest food and will starve to death.

I hope this helps.
