I bought a baby rat today and the pet store associate told me to buy CareFresh bedding. My rat pushes it away and is laying on the bare floor. I read online that pine, cedar, and aspen bedding are all bad for rats, but what is a safe alternative to wood and to carefresh?

My two cats, one female and one male, have lived together now for almost 4 years, and still my female cat pees on our bed several times a week, sometimes 3 nights/days in a row, right after we wash the sheets every night. We’ve been using Urine Gone for the odors, but it doesn’t seem [...]

My little fox terrior (2years old) is in heat. I just got her and up until now I’ve only had male dogs. So I don’t know if I should kick her out of bed while she’s in heat or just suck it up… What do you typically do when your dogs are in heat?

I have 2 dogs, lately 1 of my dogs has been putting her food on our bed. Either on top or underneath the sheets. I have had her for 5 years and for the past month she has been doing this. What does this mean?

Well I went to sleep last night, and I haven’t been getting nightmares for a while now. Last night I dreamed that I was watching my best friends two dogs for her. She has a English bull dog and a Yorkie/terrier mix. Her bull dog didn’t look like he does in reality, his whole face [...]

Pet Insurance?

April 29th, 2010
