I don’t know about learning to be an animal doctor by reading a book — but I will suggest that you start volunteering your time with a vet or animal clinic. You will learn how to work with animals, and get enough exposure to understand if you really want to make this your life’s work.
I’ve just gotten a kitten about 3 months ago and he is extremely clingy and dependent on me. He wont do anything without me having to be present. Is there anything wrong with him?

I have a very active Pomchi (pomeranian/chihuahua mix), he was playing fine then I noticed him limping. Front left foot. He is not whimpering and I can move his paw back and forth. Do you think it is a slight sprain? What can I do?

Dawn Ferara, DVM It could be a slight sprain, but it’s more likely he stepped on something. I would check the paw carefully for injuries or something lodged between his toes.
Other than that I would watch him for a few days and try to keep him resting and if he is still painful on Monday I would take him to your local vet.
I have two cats one that’s 4 and one that’s 2 the younger cat is constantly attacking the older cat and as a result of this my cat is over grooming and scratching alot and lost hair! Can anyone recommend what to do please
He just goes around sniffing and eating whatever he finds in my yard, and when i take what he takes and throw it away in the trash (which is in my yard) he goes to take it again whenever i am away from it.

Annie Yang-Shaffer I’m not really sure how I can answer your main question, sorry, but maube you should throw away your trash in a dumpster trash can.

Annie Yang-Shaffer Is your dog a new dog? Is your mom a new person to your dog? For the first 2 or 3 months of having my puppy, she responded emotionally less to me as well. She is more affectionate to my husband because she barely sees him, so she likes him more. Also, it’s beneficial to always reward with a treat every time.

Yousef Radwan Thnx for your feedback, I’ll try to improve my relation with him.
Hi krista.. 3 puppies from this litter of 4 died.. the only one left is too afraid and doesn’t eat at all. What can we possibly do?
She has a lot of falls while walking around and doesn’t come out during fay usually.. also is she still too young to mate?

Anonymous YES, she is too young to mate, and i would NEVER breed a dog with health problems! that’s irresponsible. spay her, please.

Anonymous to clarify: under the age of 2 is irresponsible, as the dog has not had an opportunity to mature properly. it would like letting a 12 year old girl have a baby. she isn’t mentally or physically prepared to handle a litter of puppies and it could cause her to have difficulties with nursing properly.
allowing her to breed when she’s unable to walk is appalling. i can’t fathom why anyone would consider this acceptable.

Anonymous i’m STILL disgusted by this post. i honestly cannot believe someone thinks this is a good idea.

Anonymous i applaud your optimism. knowing the standard of pet care in India, i can’t be that optimistic.
buying kitten formula would be great at this age , also theres nothing wrong maybe he or she was a runt and never had such a owwner like yourself . i study dog not cats much so i wouldint know much to tell you .
the thing is, he wont eat unless im next to him. And i have school studies.
Sorry to tell you U really need to just do your studies and don’t worry he will eat when he gets hungry its like cuttin the apron strings early keep telling him you got food in your bowl go eat
