I agree, I’d get him in today.
My 8 month old female small breed dog is usually very hyper and loving, but this morning I noticed that she was acting different; puking up foam, diarrhea, and not wanting to move around much, as the day went on, it was straight blood HELP

My cat has a very bad abscess on his head. Was sick for a few days before we realized. A drain tube was installed about 30 hours ago. Lots of drainage still. Cat not very responsive, eyes not opening to look at me, mostly laying in one spot. As far as i can tell, he’s only getting up to urinate in the box. He drank some water last night. Had a very very small bite of food but hasn’t really eaten for days. Is this normal now that the tube is installed? He was given fluids and a antibiotic shot. I feel like the infection, not the antibiotics, is winning the battle. How long before I see progress or need to take him back to the vet? I’m thinking we should go back tomorrow 48 hours after having the tube installed if he’s still like this. Thoughts?

I have a 24 hour old kitten who was born with what looks like a sack filled thing on its head its coming out of the head from the skin and on the top of it, it has a string type thing coming out on top of it.
My 5 yr old house cat won’t stop urinating on my bed and I don’t know why

Anonymous For how long has this gone on?
This could be medical. Have you taken your cat in to check for a UTI? If not, this should be step 1. Take a fresh urine sample with you, if possible.
This could also be behavioral. Is your cat stressed? Do you have two or more litterboxes (one per cat plus one), and does your cat use any of them? Have you tried different litter types? Has your schedule changed suddenly, or is someone new in your life? Could your cat be bored? Do you use room sprays and scents that might bother him? Do you have other animals in your home, and could any of them be picking on him? How about people – do you live with any other people, and could they be harassing or otherwise mistreating him when you’re not around?
She does not have worms or fleas. Her skin doesn’t look irritated and she has been eating the same food since we have had her. I was just wondering what this could be and what I could do about it to help her hair.

Anonymous It could be mange. Get her to the vet for a skin scrape to determine the cause.
-
Ashley Schauner I read that mange is contagious and I have 3 other dogs. None of them losing hair like her. Do you think it could be her losing her puppy hair to grow in the adult hair?

Anonymous There are two types of mange.
Bald patches are not normal.
He’s a 3 month old male who lives alone is happy and tame but I left him with family for a week and came back to this. It keeps getting larger as well.
Hello,
This morning I went to clean my cat’s litter box and found little droplets of blood on the litter box liner, She is drinking normally, however she does seem to be straining to defecate. Otherwise she is roaming around normally.

My roommates feel that he’s really on edge. They don’t feel confident in taking care of him in this state. I really don’t know what to do. There are cat sitting services in the area however they require a home visit and for me to be there. I’m on another continent at the moment….

Brittany sullivan I just need some advice help n e thing..
-
Andrea Cox Advice is to get this animal the hell away from any other animal for a very long time. You are the responsible party here and you managed to get your injured dog in another fight!
-
Brittany sullivan No it’s my brothers dog and my dog it’s mom and daughter
-
Brittany sullivan I am asking for dog owners no I did not manage to let them get in a fight they got in a fight cause randomly they don’t get along
-
PK Dennis Take her back to the vet to make sure she is getting enough meds, etc.
Females will fight to the death. It is your responsibility to make sure these dogs NEVER have an opportunity to fight again.
-
Anonymous And why are you allowing them to coexist? You should be crating and rotating which dog is out at any given time. It is YOURS and your brother’s job to prevent this from happening.
-
PK Dennis I have to point out that there is NOTHING RANDOM about why and when dogs fight. You are just not experienced enough to spot what is setting these 2 off. Are they both spayed? Do it if the answer is no. Until you can get a behaviorist in to spot the problem, and train YOU and your family in how to fix it you have to keep these girls apart. If you can’t afford a behaviorist that will come to your home to work with you then you have to find a new home for one of these dogs. Seriously.
Why does our new puppy (12 weeks old) eat his own poop? How can I stop yhat?

Anonymous Clean it up IMMEDIATELY. Redirect when he starts to eat it. Don’t leave him in the yard by himself and supervise closely (you should do this anyway). I would talk with your vet to make sure he’s eating a proper diet for his breed and age, as well.

PK Dennis This is just something that puppies do, especially if they come from puppy mills.
The only thing that truly works is getting to the poop before he does. Take him out to poo on a leash and move him away from h I should stool before he can eat it, and then pick up and dispose of it so it isn’t available later.
He will most likely grow out of this behavior.
In case of Puking Foam , Her digestive system isn’t good. But blood is coming?!?? She got a stomach cancer. Keep calm and visit a vet as soon as possible if you want to save her.
