Pet Care: Prozac won’t end soiling

Dear Dr. Fox: My daughter’s house cat, a 9-year-old spayed female shorthair tabby, has been pooping on the floor and/or rug for the past few months.

Pet Care: Dog’s warts not contagious

Dear Dr. Fox: I have a 5-year-old pug. He has several black spots that look like warts on his stomach. The veterinarian I took him to retired, so a young vet has taken over. The previous vet put him on steroids, but the new vet said she could remove them with surgery. She tells me the warts are caused by a virus.

Pet Care: Purr-less feline common

Dear Dr. Fox: Two years ago, I adopted a beautiful male snowshoe cat from the animal shelter. He is very sweet, natural and content to be with me. But in all this time, I have never heard or felt him purr. I’ve had cats my entire life, and I have never known one not to be able to purr. Do you have any explanation for this? He’s 4 years old.

Pet Care: Garlic safe tick repellant

Dear Dr. Fox: I read your articles every Sunday. Thank you so much for your valuable information. A woman at my health food store told me to use bottled garlic juice when I expressed my concerns about flea and tick treatments for my Jack Russell terrier, Sadie.

Pet Care: Dog is territorial with bed

Dear Dr. Fox: My wife and I have a 5-year-old bichon frise whom we adopted three years ago. He idolizes my wife and has from day one. We think that in his prior home a male mistreated him, as he has always been wary of me, if not downright aggressive. He has gradually warmed up to me, but he still isn’t as close to me as he is to my wife.

Pet Care: Music to soothe your pets

Dear Dr. Fox: The other day I decided to listen to a CD of Gregorian chants. My two formerly feral cats walked up to the speakers and stayed in a relaxed trance until it was over. I got the same reaction earlier today. Do cats like certain kinds of music? Are mine unique?

Pet Care: Animals who cry common

Dear Dr. Fox: I am writing in reference to your article about animals crying. I have four Chihuahuas: two 7-year-olds and two 5-year-olds (they are a mother, father, son and daughter). My husband retired three years ago, and since then, our dogs have bonded to him more than ever.

Pet Care: Timid cat bullied by others

Dear Dr. Fox: I have four cats who get along OK – with the exception of one. I rescued Eugenie from my neighborhood, and she is very timid and is often bullied by the other cats. I give her as much special attention as possible. She has a separate feeding area in an upstairs bathroom away from the others; I have a litter box for her in the spare bedroom, which, unfortunately, the other cats use as well.

Pet Care: Dementia may keep dog up

Dear Dr. Fox: My 14-year-old Australian shepherd-mix is having trouble sleeping at night. She is very disruptive, knocking things down and pacing for hours. She sleeps during the day, but is sometimes destructive and will try to break into locked rooms.

Pet Care: Cat craves cobwebs as treats

Dear Dr. Fox: We have a 15-year-old seal tortie point Siamese cat named Minerva (Minnie for short). She is on several medications, including Denamarin for a liver problem and Zeniquin for a respiratory problem. She eats well and keeps her weight at 11 pounds, which is good for her size.

Pet Care: Can’t tell cat’s age by teeth

Dear Dr. Fox: In the winter of 2004, a beautiful Maine coon/tabby mix showed up on my doorstep, grabbed hold of my heart and has remained my love ever since. I took her to the vet, had her checked out, vaccinated, etc. At the time, the vet estimated that she was about 2 years old.

Pet Care: Late cat appears in photo

Dear Dr. Fox: I enjoyed the interesting chapter in your book “Animals and Nature First” about animals having an afterlife, and the evidence from readers’ accounts and photographs they shared with you.

Pet Care: Nutrition important in allergies

Dear Dr. Fox: I have a Jack Russell terrier who has had severe allergies all his life, or so I thought.

Pet Care: Collie mix having ‘accidents’

Dear Dr. Fox: We have a border collie mix who is about 15 months old. She was spayed at 6 months and seems to be in good health. We feed her Halo dry food and one cup cooked food as per your recipe, along with chondroitin and glucosamine supplements.
