I have had several cats and tried several brands of food including the cheap store brands. Purina is the best brand I have found so far, and the indoor formula is great for strictly indoor cats. Not only does it keep their weight managed, but it also gives them …

I bought this seed mix for my pet mice and rats but it’s not really a very good food at all. They’d rather eat anything else besides this stuff. Most of the time it just sits in their bowls untouched. They will eat it if I don’t give them …

Two years ago I started looking for a dog for my daughter to show. Because she is on the smaller side I wanted to get her something smaller, but most of the toy breeds seem to yap and bark too much. I also needed something that would be able …

The shampoo has a very gentle subtle scent, I really like it it is a bit sweet and in my opinion just a bit of vanilla like - not too much though. The scent that stays on the dog is not to strong, it smells very natural and you …
