Use of Feliway
Does anyone know if a Feliway spray would help with one of my cats peeing all over the house? He's been doing it for ages but doesn't appear stressed or anything - everything else seems quite normal. I've tried all sorts to clean it/mask it/spray it (where he's peeing not the cat himself!) but he just moves from place to…

Unscrupulous dog owners - need to vent!
I was at a large open air market today, and spotted a man with 2 very small puppies tucked under his coat trying to flog them to passers by. It was cold and raining, he said they were 10 weeks old (looked younger to me, but I'm no expert) and they were being man-handled by all and sundry, because the world and his wife…

Alternative to Feliway diffuser
It's now been 1.5 weeks since we introduced a new kitten to our 8 year old tom. I THOUGHT it was going really well - a gradual introduction, sniffing of each other, the odd swipe and hiss but nothing major. My older cat seemed a bit put out, but would lie sprawled on the floor watching her, and just swiping if she got too…

Bargain cat collars at Pets at Home
Hi all, I popped into PAH to get some spare cat collars (one of which isn't a spare at all since I got home to find my kitten has disposed of his yet again somewhere in the house :cool:). Anyhoo, I found a collar at PAH which didn't appear to have a corresponding shelf edge label, took it to the till, and its only 97p!! I…

Unsure whether to adopt dogs
Hi, I hope no one minds but I'd welcome some advice as I'm a bit confused. Apologies for the length of the post. I have seen 2 dogs (CKCS 5-6yrs) for adoption who are ex-puppy farm !!!!!es. I'm thinking of maybe adopting them (with my OH). I've had a CKCS before and really love the breed. We have a 3 bed semi with a…

Vet referral fees - what does referring vet get?
Does anyone know whether vets receive a kickback of some kind when they refer their clients to referral vets and how much? Our vet sent us to a place in Kent which was totally incompetent and yet they don't seem overly concerned about what happened and still seem to intend to send other clients there even though they admit…

What's wrong with my kitten?
I'm just a bit concerned about our kitten at the moment. She is normally the friendliest, cuddliest and most attention seeking animal I have ever met. She's ALWAYS at our flat door when we get home, meowing like crazy and demanding cuddles. Nothing phases her, and she's normally well up for just chilling on the sofa for…

Barking dog next door
I've had new neighbours move in next door last weekend who have 3 small children and 2 young lurchers. I'm not very knowledgeable about lurchers but despite looking nice dogs these two seem to bark at anything during the day and the worst part is that they bark every night and wake us up. Last night it was so bad that they…

Supermarket stockists (London) of Feline Fayre 400g tins
I give my two cats a mixed diet. It used to be 90% dried but now it's about 50/50 dried (Burns) & wet. I discovered raw feeding but don't like the mess so that's an ocassional treat. Mostly I feed quality wet food, starting off with Bozita in cartons & then moved on to Aniconda Carni, as the latter is cheaper:T & comes in…
