I have had a fast heart rate for weeks, this week it is more bothersome, I am exhausted all the time, I can't even sing with out getting winded :( today I have sneezed twice and the pain in my chest for a good 3-5 seconds after is incredible :( would this be from the long term fast heart rate?

This very friendly cat has come into my home, I gave it some tuna as it seemed hungry, she kinda won't leave and has been what I think now may be nesting in various spots in the house, her last spot was on my bed when I noticed she is bleeding and licking a LOT, it's not my cat but I can't bare to send it outside. Is it possible she is beginning labour? She does not look pregnant. What should I do?

I have my 7 year old nephew in my care, that is in grade two but is behind in his abilities at school. he has missed 91 days of 119 of school this year, making him very far behind. Since with me he has not missed a day of school. So on school days I have him do homework of some kind, but its a battle. I do child care and try not to compare him to the other after schoolers, they all do the same homework even though the others are younger (I give things I think the younger can do, so its not to difficult for him) what can I do to make homework not a task where I have to be a meanie, but will encourage him to help him get caught up to the rest of his class. I practice printing, fast math and spelling with them all, and do what ever homework the teacher does send home. For two days I have been trying to get him to do some free thinking homework, in making them write a story about them self, in the time it took the others to write their story he wrote two words (free thinking and independent work is what the teacher has the hardest time with with him) Today after him getting nowhere with his story again, I am giving him a chocolate (smarty) for every sentence he can get done in 2.5 mins. He is managing to think of more things to write, knowing there is an award. Is this appropriate?? what else can I do?

I have a pregnant fancy tail guppy, she has been getting bigger and bigger for two weeks now. the last couple of day i feel she is bigger than any other one i have had, and felt she is getting too big for herself. this morning i woke up and turned on their lights to see if she dropped yet and she is starting to flake, yes flake like she IS too big for her body. is there anything i can do for her?? she looks like she is hurting and not liking her new size.

I have a pure breed beagle that will be three years old in may. I got her about nine mths ago, up until i got her she was completely and outside dog, with me she is solely an inside dog. she is getting better at not potting in the house but it is still a struggle she messes pretty much whenever she want. the most bothersome for me is when she messes in her kennel, I thought their home is the first thing they learn to respect and she doesn't care and then she will lay in it. I want her to like to be clean NOT dirty, How do I have her learn that the kennel is NOT for messing in??

I had gotten some new plants for my female fish tank almost two weeks ago, at about day 6 I noticed that there were spots on some of the fish, the next day I went out and got ich treatment. I raised the temp of the tank slowly, its been at about 82 for about the week. I also did the treatment for the last six days in a row. Today is the first day of no spots whatsoever, I am wondering if I should do another treatment today? would I be ok with just the temp up for a few more days?? The whole time I have been concerned about the females and their fry(soon to be fry)

and if soo what can i do about it. She was neutered almost two weeks ago, and for the last two days i have had to yell at her for SOOOO much, stuff she know is wrong and had had the habit broken, she is up on the furniture, eating sneakers, jumping up on the table, getting in the garbage, and does it ALL when my back is turned. like today usually (for over two mths) i have been able to let her run loose in the house when i go out but today i was out for an hour and get back the house was A MESS, we had gone to training classes and have just passed our level one obedience and are going in to rally classes, so i really don't understand why she is doing all this, any suggestion as to why she is doing this, and how i can keep from getting sooo frustrated?

do dogs usually have an over bite or an under bite, does it matter

had her to the vet she thinks its just bloated from eating too much, I think she has a blockage, what should i do?? what are the signs of blockage

so I went out on a blind date with this guy, it was our first time meeting and you would think that meeting someone for the first time both people would go all out to make themselves look good, or at least better then their norm. I know I sure did, anyway I get to our meeting place and he is dressed less than casual, his breath stank and he had spit wads in the corner of his mouth, it was such a turn off, now this guy has great values and I could see me dating a guy like this but i can NOT get over the cosmetic stuff. So my question is how do i tell him to clean if self up, before we go out again, and what it that was him cleaned up?

i just got a bunny from a friend who could no longer take care of it because their dogs were tormenting it, when it got here one of its nails is soooo long, is it okay to clip it with a dog nail clipper? why would only one nail grow sooo long?

i just went to clean my adult tank and saw that I have new babies in the tank about 15 of them, I did not even know I had a pregnant fish, I know you should leave the babies alone for two weeks, but i would like to move them to the baby tank, would it be ok or should i put more duck weed in the adult tank for the babies to hide in?

is still bug as before birth, four days before Christmas she was getting pretty big so i put her in the incubator tank on Christmas i woke to her having given birth to viable babies and two nonviable -they were folded and on bottom of tank, now a week later she is still big, and her belly is very transparent, she is acting very normal, just wondering what is going on and if OK to move her back to the original tank. any suggestion?

of the wind howling through the house, what can i do for her?

i have a large fish tank with mollies, guppies and tetras in it, the water has been tested several times, and there doesn't seem to be a problem with the water. ALL the other fish has been fine i just can keep the guppies alive, what could i be doing wrong? Is it something i am doing or the fish themselves?

Her name is Maple, my other dog had found her in the woods when she was 4 weeks old (we are guessing), she has been to the vet and has had her first two sets of vac. she is now 10 weeks old

is it just because she drank too fast or is this a problem?

I am looking for a boy puppy name that could go with my puppy's named Maple, got any ideas??

i have a 20 gal tank with 10 neon's, 4 fancy tail, 4 sword tail fish, my problem is someone is always pregnant, right now I have a fancy that is about ready, as well as a sword tail and 18 -8 week old fry, today i cleaned the tank as i do every two weeks and dumped the water down the toilet as normal, only today there were baby fish (fry) swimming in the toilet after wards, i am guessing they are about a day or so old, I didn't even notice another fish pregnant, how can i make sure that i do not almost flush any fry again, i like watching the babies grow up and plan on giving them away as soon as they are big/old enough, I don't want to loose more fry.
