There is nothing quite so beautiful or exotic as a wild tiger, bobcat, leopard, or jaguar, and there are thousands of people, if not more, who would love to own one. In fact, there are over sixteen hundred of the big wild cats that are owned by individuals in the United States alone. This usually is not a good thing for these big cats. Oftentimes they are placed in cages or fenced-in areas that are far too small to house them comfortably, and many times they are the victims of abuse, intentional or not. Most people just don't know what the proper nutrition is for a big cat. More importantly, these huge cats are far too dangerous and no matter how tame they might seem, can easily maim or kill a human...

Before purchasing a Boxer--or any dog--you should consider various aspects to decide if this is the right breed for you. The worse thing you can do as a dog owner is not research the potential dog.

Also, Boxers are fastidious creatures that will clean themselves, like cats. For those looking for an easy to care for pet, the Boxer...

These colors are included into standard, there is their description, but... Where are they? By all accounts from abroad, they have such animals but for some reason they are more often met in pedigrees of British cats as experimental partners for leading new color into the breed, but not like exhibition stars.

Gastrointestinal and immune diseases are epidemic. There are over 150 million domestic cats and dogs in the United States alone!

There are ancient pictures which date back to 6000BC in the city of Catal-Huyuk in present-day Turkey, depicting dogs very similar in type to Greyhounds.

Whether or not pets need vitamins just as much as you do, and whether or not vitamins for pets are as important to them as they are to you, depends very much on the type of pet to which are referring. Obviously, a stick insect has different needs to a snake, which has different needs to a pet monkey. A pet rock, popular in the 1980s, has few needs. Lets assume we are discussing mammals, and specifically cats and dogs. What are their dietary and vitamin needs? They need vitamins as we do, and also carbohydrates, protein and fats (animal or vegetable) as the basic chemicals for their development. If they have a deficiency in any of these, particularly of vitamins, then they will need a supplement in...

The same system can be used with cats and dogs, but after a week or so of eating at opposite sides of the door, a face to face meeting, with the dog on a lead, in the same room, can take place. Make sure the dog obeys its commands to 'Sit', 'Stay', etc., and have the two animals at first on opposite sides of the room with the cat held on somebody's lap. Titbits should be proffered all round. This scenario should be repeated many times until there is no sign of aggression or fear from either party, the cat in particular not struggling to get away. Then the two animals can slowly and progressively over a number of meetings be brought closer to one another. The dog should be praised and rewarded for...

If there is one thing that really upsets potential tenants looking for an apartment it is the, 'No Pets Allowed' line in the Internet ad. This one issue is enough to get a prospective tenant very upset. That may be because one person's devoted hairy, fluffy, or even feathery companion is another's man's unclean, rowdy, pongy, flea-ridden all-round nuisance. The basic 'model' by-laws state in print, that residents may only have pets with the absolute permission of the owner, body corporate, or executive committee; it also states that permission cannot be unreasonably withheld. So, just what does this mean when you are searching for an apartment? Well simply this. Look for apartments online which...

A cross between Toy Story, Superman, and Office Space, it provides an endless array of action sequences, visual creativity, and well-delivered humor.

Luxury villas can be leased to stay in if you can afford the price charged by the owner. However, staying in luxury villas require observance of certain crucial rules that you may not be aware of: 1.There are owners of luxury villas who will allow you to bring along the family pet during your stay. Others may not, because the family pet (particularly sizeable ones such as large-breed dogs and cats) may require high maintenance. Also, the family pet could damage the furniture and other parts of the luxury villas by chewing or urinating and defecating on them, so the owners of luxury villas may be wary of letting your family pet into their luxury villas. If your family pet is contained in a...

Good food and the right pet products can help you pet stay healthy and fit. Pet nutrition in our industry plays a big role in our society although not all people recognize this. Most consumers think that buying pet products such as canned foods are just equivalent to the meat that you can feed them everyday. They are mistaken. They also think that the canned foods only contain toxins and preservatives which can harm the pet's health one day. More of them also think that they only aim to keep it expensive. In the early 1980s, Stuart Berger, MD, claimed that soy is among...

Is your pet worth $100,000? It may be if you don't make accommodations for it when selling your home. A Hundred Thousand Dollar Pet? A house I'd seen with a potential buyer in an attractive neighborhood built around two lakes sold for $100,000 less than was typical for the neighborhood. Do you know what caused it to sell for that much less? A pet. Actually, two pets. I can hear you thinking, "How can that be? Surely she doesn't know what she's talking about this time. How could two pets reduce the sales price of a home by $100,000? Is that even possible?" I understand your skepticism, but it's true. Let me tell you how I know. When I made the appointment for the potential buyer to look at the house...

"It's raining cats and dogs!" You are certainly familiar with this silly little saying for when the rain is pouring down. While you may never have a thought about where it came from, the saying comes from the 1500's when/ houses in Europe had a fairly flat thatched roof made of a thick layer of straw. The household animals would curl up in the straw and use it for bedding. These roofs didn't have much in the way of wooden timber support and when you had the combination of an old roof and a heavy rain, well you can picture the rest of the story! Today, even though we still enjoy a wonderful canopy bed, our roofing material has tremendously improved. Roofs are rarely flat and are usually sloped. In...

Sometimes I get these sort of comments: "I have not got much time so how can I create a product to sell via the internet?" "I have not got the expertise, so I cannot produce an ebook to sell, can I?" "I have very little money; how can I afford to pay someone to create my product for me?" What if I were to say - you can have it all! Create a product in a day.

The origins of the Persian cat are murky, at best. Some claim that the Persian is descended from the Sand cat, but this cannot be proven. It is also thought that somehow Angoras were crossbred with Chinese longhairs or Russian Longhairs, but again, this is uncertain. There is also the suggestion that longhairs came to China as a gift from the king of Persian but there is no proof of this. What is known is that Perisans were recognized as their own distinct breed by the 19th century and came to America at around the same time. This longhaired cat comes in a wide variety of colors that is very thick, making it prone to matting. A Persians coat is so thick the hair looks as if it is standing on its end...

At the risk of offending of all the dog lovers who read this article, I must state my preference for cats over dogs. They are very adorable creatures that also have a wonderful air of independence and intelligence about them. This independence gives them a more well rounded personality than dogs who seem to always want to be by your side. Cats are also much easier to care for and are great even small apartments. If you live in the city like I do then having a dog is a total pain. You have to take them out for a walk twice every day or pay for an expensive dog walker! A cat can be perfectly happy indoors. They can cope much better in small places than dogs do. The hearing power of cat is much more...

When considering the birth rates among animals, it is not hard to understand why animal shelters are always filled with animals waiting to be adopted. Shockingly, it has been calculated that over a seven year period, one female cat and her offspring will produce approximately 420,000 kittens. Likewise, one female dog and her offspring will produce 67,000 puppies during a six year period. Since there are more animals looking for homes than there are people who want to adopt them, some 6.5 million animals are euthanized each year. Given the statistics cited above, adopting an animal can be a kind and loving thing to do. However, before making the final decision to adopt, there are a number of things...

Dogs indisputably descended for wolves many thousands of years ago. Two thousand years ago the plaques on houses in Pompeii said 'Cave Canem' or 'Beware of the Dog' showing an interest in dogs for protection. However dogs became poorly tolerated in medieval times when phrases such as 'son of a bitch' and 'die like a dog' originated. Even so, around this time dogs were valued as hunters, especially during periods of famine, and a good hunting dog was worth more than a slave! * Dogs seem to have the ability to think. Its mind operates 80% of the time by instinct and 20% of the time by knowledge gained during its lifetime. However during the first 21 days a puppy's mental capacity is zero as it only...

Cats often seem mysterious, but a new national survey polling more than 1,000 cat owners reveals that our feline friends may be more misunderstood then we think-and that misunderstanding could affect their health. According to the new Cat Behavior Survey conducted by Harris Interactive, 75 percent of cat owners are not familiar with important bladder health issues that may affect their companions. This lack of knowledge can often leave cat owners mistaking warning signs of the disease as "behavior problems," which can ultimately lead to serious consequences for the cat if not properly addressed.

In the 1960s a Persian was crossed with a Domestic Shorthair in an attempt to create a Persian with only short hair. The result was today's Exotic, a breed that looks strikingly similar to the Persian, but with less maintenance involved, hence the nickname, 'the lazy man's Persian.' There are long- and shorthaired varieties of Exotic. The coat of a Longhaired is very similar to a Persian. It is very thick and dense, and requires daily grooming, along with regular bathing. The Shorthaired Exotic coat is, well, short. However, that does not mean it does not require some maintenance from the owner. Though Shorthaired Exotics tend to be able to keep themselves clean via regular grooming, the occasional...
