I don’t particularly like the idea of birds as pets inside the home. I have lived in a home where birds were kept, though they weren’t mine. Those birds were parakeets and love birds, and I found them quite annoying most of the time!

A cat adopted us about three years ago and the vet told us he needed to be an indoor cat, because of all the coyotes in our area. That meant indoor cat litter which sounded really gross to me. I remember when I was a teenager some friends had …

My cat was going through a rough spell after we brought home a puppy. She decided to urinate all over the house and on everything you could possibly think of. I’m pretty sure she felt like she had nothing of her own and needed to mark absolutely everything …

The Cat Dancer cat toy has been one of the best toys I’ve ever purchased. The product could not be simpler. It’s merely a long thin wire with pieces of rolled cardboard attached to each end. At the handle, there is only one piece of rolled cardboard and at …

Many people have this idea that Siberian huskies are part wolf and are aggressive. I would Like to smack those people in the head and hand them a real educational book about huskies. Contrary to what many people believe the Huskies are normal domesticated dogs. In fact all dogs …

A few months ago, my wife and I started worrying about a dog of ours. She was old and fat — about 11-years-old and a solid 20 pounds overweight (that’s not good for a Labrador/dachshund mix). The old girl just kind of lounged around the house and had gotten …

A year ago when I first got my two puppies I knew there would be a lot of work and money invested in them. Like children, pets are expensive to care for. Not enough people who get pets realize this. Animals are not accessories are gifts, they’re living creatures …

I …

I have three cats. They use the litter box every few hours, I think because two of them are older and drink water all day. It’s not what I prefer, but the only practical place for the litter box is our bathroom. Anyway, I clean the cat box every …
