I live in Houston and the flea problem in my neighborhood is a bit crazy. Last night I gave my cats Chip and Momo a bath and then applied some Diatomaceous Earth when they dried. Today after I held Chip in my arms for a while, I sat him down then used a lint roller [...]
I cannot believe this company has not been sued yet… as soon as I used it on both of my cats one had the worst reaction… lost all his fur and developed heart disease. He died last night… Now I wonder what it is going to do to my other cat. Is he going to [...]
Hi, My name is Alan, I’ve had dogs all my life, and started to rescue dogs about 15yrs ago. Pitbull’s to be exact, a very misunderstood breed if you ask me. They are one of the most loving pets I’ve ever seen, and great with children! I end up getting a puppy that was 4-months [...]

Within minutes the shitzu started acting weird…it didn’t register at first what could be causing [...]

On 9/16 my cat had her 1st litter of kittens. She had 5, but the runt of the litter died 2 days later. On 10/22 one of the 3 kittens we had left started acting strange(whining, not nursing, real lethargic). My sister suggested maybe getting a bottle and some pet formula, so she’d atleast get [...]
