A question about : Cat Ballou

[B]I was wondering if anyone has any tips on what to use to keep cats from doing their business all over my garden?

I have always had cats using my garden as a thoroughfare but never a toilet. But now i have 3 new kittens and i think the big cats are trying to show them that they were there first so they are doing number 2's all over the lawn and in the soil where i have things growing. They aren't burying and are leaving it to the elements.

A question about : Pet Insurance

I have just bought two cats (ahh bless!) and I need your collective help. When buying pet insurance what are the vital things I need to look for in a policy, what are the nice-to-haves and what are a waste of money? Thanks.

A question about : Apparently neglected cat

A friend of mine (who lives over 100 miles from me) owns two cats and her neighbour owns one. Her neighbour's cat is never allowed inside her owner's house, instead she is left outside on a permanent basis (irrespective of the weather), apparently with no shelter whatsoever. Because of this the cat is often to be found huddling underneath a tree in my friend's garden.

The neighbour owns a dog which IS allowed inside his house.

A question about : Pet insurance (don't laugh!)

Hi all

We've gone and bought a rabbit! Already it's costing the earth. With the rabbit we got 30 days pet insurance free - covers vet's bills, etc.

Was wondering if anyone has any experience of this kind of thing and if there's any good/cheap! companies or policies to use.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Ps if anyone still needs a gmail account let me know.

A question about : Lonely cat

Hi,

Just looking for some advice really.

We have a Male (neutered) cat and he is about 7 years old. We have had him since he was 6 months.

In March we moved in with my parents (cat and all) while we in between selling and buying a property. We lived with them for 6 months. They are pretty much retired now, so he had the pleasure of their company through most of the day.

A question about : Stinky Dog

Hello all !!

We have a Staffordshire Bull Terrier and she gets so excited all the time she sweats a lot and gets real stinky !! We have tried various champoo's on her but she just seems to smell worse. I did find some dog deoderant but its over Ј4 a can so not cheap.

Has anyone got any old fashioned ideas about this ? I have diluted Tea Tree and sprayed her with this but it didnt help. I'm all for the oils but can't figure out which one would be safe on her and sort the problem.
