We have a cat that isn't necessarily a stray (she has a collar and tags), but she is always roaming the neighborhood. Her name is Shock Tart. Funny name for a cat. She always comes over to me wanting me to pet her and she will roll on her back and after...

Our dogs have always got on our furniture. It doesn't really bother me at all. I am a clean freak and I vaccuum all surfaces and use febreeze on the sofas. We have always had very small animals though so they don't really get anything...

I saw on tv just the other day the seatbelts for dogs. My dog is only about 4 lbs. I doubt they make them small enough for her. The only way my dog goes with me in the car is if there is a passenger that can hold...

Our dog sleeps under the covers in the bed with us sometimes in the winter. She is little and I feel sorry for her when it is really cold and snowy outside. We always make sure she has had a bath before she gets to sleep in our...

I wish my dog would eat grass over cat poop. My dog has never ate grass that I know of, but she probably sneaks some when I am not looking like the cat poop. I have also heard they eat it for digestive reasons. If we need vegetables, dogs do too....

Our cats would usually try to go into a dark closet and then they start clawing the ground to get the area comfortable. Dogs do the same thing. Our cats started meowing and panting a lot too. Usually you will notice they will act out of the ordinary for...

We have bought a poodle at a pet shop. Which was way too expensive. We have also bought cats from pet shops for like 30.00. They were very sweet cats, rag dolls, and well worth the purchase....

We bought a miniature toy poodle in a pet shoppe for $400.00. Now, thinking back that probably was not the smartest move. "Buddy" was a good dog, but overpriced. What are some of your outrageous pet...

Just wanted to post some of our favorite movies with cats. I loved "Garfield" and "Cats and Dogs". They are both very funny, entertaining movies, even for adults....

I thought it would be fun to list some of our favorite movies about dogs or has a dog in it that plays an important role. If I had to pick an animated movie, I loved "All Dogs go to Heaven" as child. I also liked...

I read somewhere that all dogs shed, but there are some dogs that shed very little. Poodles, Yorkies, Bichons, and Schnauzers don't shed very much. If you know of any others, feel free to list them...

Do you flea dip your pet? I have a miniature dachsund and she only weighs about 4 pounds so I have been advised she is too small to do a flea dip. The only thing I do is have her wear a flea collar and we bathe her twice a month. She gets too dry if we...

Do not declaw a cat that spends anytime outside. That is the only defense they have against other animals. If you have an indoor cat that stays indoors 24/7 then I think it would be ok to declaw...

I suggest getting one of those rollers you use to pick up lint. I would buy the largest one they have. Cats usually pick favorite spots to lay so it shouldn't take too long to clean up the hair off of the spots they enjoy laying. Otherwise, have fun...

Yes, I have also seen people use cat litter to clean up oil. Most people in our area seem to use sand, but I think anything of that type of texture could soak up the oil....
