I adoped a 9 year old Male Scottish Fold 6 months ago.
I recently found out he has Skeltal abnormalites.
This is caused by the gene causing the folded ear trait,
it is a dominant gene which causes skeletal problems if the cat inherits two copies of the gene. In most cases this happens when inbreeding occurs or when breeding two folds.
Signs of skeltal abnormalites are a thickened tail caused by tail vertebrae fusing and thickened legs with swollen feet due to overgrowth of cartilage around the paws.
These side-effects cause problems with walking,
But in most cases it don’t affect the cats overall health.
Can anyone tell me any tips on proper long term care???

I have been reading really scary things about commercial dog foods and have been really considering making my own dog food. I have been doing some research online but can’t seem to find something that tells me how long I can keep the food until it spoils. Any tips on making my own dog food?

We put the proper dose of Advantage on them yesterday. We vacuumed the carpets real well, put flea power over the carpets and let the powder sit for a few hours. Today (the next day), i am still seeing live fleas on the animals and around the house. I have never had carpets before the animals used to be indoor only animals. Now the animals go outside and I have carpets. How long does it take? I will be vacuuming everyday now. Can someone give me some in site? I want these things GONE!

Basically, it has been a week since I was visiting my folks and the 2 cats that live there as well. The moment I walked in the door I could feel it. And it worsened every moment I was there. But my reaction is limited to my chest, wheezing, coughing. So much and so hard I was bursting blood vessels in my eyes.
And these symptoms are persisting. Though not as severe. But I did try to go for a jog today and got about 10 minutes in when I couldn’t continue.
The thing that really gets me is I use to have cats. No problem.

My dog will be a year in the end of August. She munches on my older dogs “left-overs” could I just put her on regular dog food?
