Limping catSince we got a bull terrier puppy 18 months ago, my cat spends much of her time under the bed, crawling in a hunched position. She spends less time under the bed now that she's used to the dog, but I noticed the other day she is walking funny, sort of like she's in pain or her hips hurt. I think it is from walking under the bed so much. What can we give her to help with this? thank you | |

Cat waking up at nightMy cat is 9 years old and I introduced a puppy to the mixture 2 ½ years ago. Over the last few months the cat has started waking me up in the middle of the night, sometimes 4 and 5 times a night. At first it was to be fed or for fresh water, but lately it seems it is reoccurring more often and for no reason. I have tried making sure both his food and water dishes were full before going to bed, I have spent more time in the evening with him, but it doesn't seem to matter. Please help. | |
Cat tremors after flea treatmentI bought this flea application for dogs and used it on my cats, the people at the store said it would be okay. Now my two male cats are shaking and disorented but my female seems to be okay. My one male cat is 5yrs old and the other is 1.5 yrs old. I applied it last night about 6pm and at 3am I woke up and found the two male cats shaking and like having seizers. I gave them a bath to try and wash this stuff off them. What can I do. Is there any thing that will help?? | |
Kitten with big tummyWe live remotely and were handed a very young kitten found in a parking lot at 4-5 weeks of age. The day after, we had our travelling vet (who is has since left her parctice and was not noted to be very good anyway), examine the kitten and gave him rabies and other needed shots and a worm pill that handles all parasites. We noted the kitten's stomach was swollen and she said it could be worms or overeating, but that it was fine. If it was worms the pill should take care of it she said. The kitten is doing great, full of energy, eating, and very happy, but its swollen stomach is still huge and shiny and just feels so large for the size kitten and odd. We have four other cats and I do not remember them being like this as a kitten. I can not find anything on teh Internet indicating any problems this could be other than parasites and overeating. Overeating certainly is a possibility as it seems like it is always eating. So my question is: is it normal for a kitten's stomach to feel like a small squishy apple that is very obvious and if not, is it likely overeating? The nearest vet is hours away by boat and then car (we live on an island) so I don't want to overreact or underreact - it has been like this since we got the kitten. |

Dog digging carpet
My dog (5yo female neutered Blue Heeler mix) is outside during the day and inside at night. I've only had her for 6 months- I got her from a friend. During the past month, she started scratching at our carpets ruining them. She only scratches them around the walls never in middle of the floor. Why is she doing this and what can I do to get her to stop?
