A washcloth with warm soapy water should be used to clean the wound. Some diseases are transmitted by mice and could be problematic please contact your vet.
I am adopting 2 kittens in September. They are currently 6 weeks old and have been going outside for a week. I will be getting them at 16 weeks old and am concerned that they are unvaccinated and have been roaming. Will it be OK to have them vaccinated as soon as I get them and then keep them inside until they have had their 2nd set of vaccinations or is this likely to be problematic given that they will be used to going outside.
I am getting the kittens from a friend not a breeder and she does not vaccinate her cats so there is no way they will have had them prior to me getting them

My dog got bit by a huge mouse outside and started bleeding, he seemed fine by licking off the blood and eating, but im worried, could there be diseases transmitted? Can i clean the wound somehow? Thank you.

She is a Bengal, approx 1 year old, de sexed and lives with a male tabby 5 years old also desexed. They are both healthy indoor cats. There have been no other behavioural changes, she’s very affectionate, eating and drinking well. No more or less than usual. The urine stains don’t show any signs of discolouration and don’t smell unusual or different from the other cat’s.
My 3 month old kitten has diarrhea and can’t control when it goes. The only other animals it has been around is our puppy but he is not sick. What can I do to stop the diarrhea
My dog developed a large verysoft mass on her throat on top of her esophagus seemingly over night she is antsy but is eating
Found a kitten he has gooey eyes but no other symptoms
I’ve had my cat Ronnie for 2 years, and never had a problem. He has been neutered and had worm and flee treatment. I havn’t changed his food or his litter. His fur and skin seems fine and healthy and he always eats his food. I just don’t know why he is doing this, and don’t know how to stop it???
my dog got into raw chicken from the garbage last night. today he has thrown up once and salivated a couple times. Right now he is sleeping and has been laying down for an hour. I just want to know if he will be okay

Raine Plant He should be fine. A lot of pet owners feed a raw meat diet and it doesn’t cause harm but since he threw up I would keep a close watch on him. Call the vet if he continues to not be himself.

debra yuhasz Fresh, raw meat will not hurt your dog. Spoiled meat or a misplaced bone can cause all kinds of nasty problems. I lived in Homestead for about 30 yrs. I highly recommend Dr. Gilley. Best dog vet I’ve ever met and less expensive than the rest.

My beautiful old spaniel became like this, I don’t want to worry you because I’m not a vet but please get this thoroughly checked out! we took her to a vet and they sent her home (very poor service) but was later rushed in again when we lost her due to cancer ?
Fingers crossed for you xxx
Statistically cats live longer healthier life if they live indoors. Your cat should be spayed neutered and microchip along with having the required vaccines. You may want to consider harness training your cat so that you can take it on long walks they love it.
I encourage you to keep your cats indoors for the rest of their lives – cats that roam die early, and some times very brutal deaths. So many things to kill cats: cars, dogs, fox, poisons, people. Your cats will live longer and be healthier living as indoor cats. Also they will be less likely to add to the unwanted cat populations.
And let’s think about what cats do when they are outdoors – in the UK cats kill about 200 million other animals! 55 million of those are song birds.
So, rethink what it means to be a responsible cat owner, keep those kitties safe at home.
