• Help - Kerosene or lamp oil on my cat

  Posted on 2008/11/11 by C

  How do you get kerosene/lamp oil out of cat fur? My cat came home yesterday soaked in some sort of kerosene or lamp oil. He seems to be in shock. I bathed him twice trying to get it out of his fur once with shampoo and once with dish soap.

• Adopting

  Posted on 2008/09/17 by User

  I want to adopt a cat. My boyfriend is reluctant because the previous cat who lived at the house use to not make the litter box at times, especially as she got older. He is afraid that the new cat will still smell the spots from the old cat and will then start doing the same thing. Even though the carpets have been replaced since the old cat died.

• urine & incontinence

  Posted on 2008/03/02 by User

  We have a Golden Retriever. Everytime someone comes to visit, if we don't put him in his cage he will urinate all over the carpet. What is the reason for this? He is 3 years old and did it the day I brought him home. He was 1 yr. old then.

• My neighbors dog

  Posted on 2008/02/15 by Lisa

  I do not have any pets but my neighbors have a Beagle named Billy. They keep him outside and don't pay much attention to him and I noticed doesnt get much water. What do you recommend. Should I confront the owner or just call the humane society. I mentioned to the owner of the house that the dog needed water and he said ol that's my sons dog but the next day no water was added to his frozen bucket. I would like to take him and keep him/ But, my husband doesn't want pets. The neighbor just got the dog for hunting. I'd like to give him a big comforter to put in his igloo to keep him warm. It's been really cold here 17 - 26.

• cats for immunospressed children

  Posted on 2008/04/11 by User

  I have heard that cats can be dangerous for those with suppressed immune systems. I have a child who takes steroids on a daily basis. Since this would classify my child as having a suppressed immune system, I was wondering if owning a cat is not worth the risk. We have a small dog and never had a problem, but we would like to have a cat as well. For every article that states that owning a cat can be potentially dangerous, I have read articles that state that having an indoor cat only requires proper precautions, such as the child never cleaning the litter box. What do you think, is owning a cat too risky??? Thanks! Eddie
