My Indoor Cat’s First Time Experiencing Heights. He Instantly Regretted It
You stole that from Robocop 1 year ago
Neither of my current cats will climb ladders. My last cat however, horribly abused rescue, we got her at 7, scared of everything but loved ladders. She'd been going blind for a while and I went up in the loft via the loft ladder. About an hour later my wife said "can you hear miaowing?", the poor little cow had climbed up there and I'd shut her in, I felt incredibly guilty and she sulked appropriately. But because she'd been so abused you couldn't pick her up or cuddle her as she'd attack you. I just had to sit down and wait for her to come to me so I could apologise. I miss my little girl.

My cat randomly climbed a ten foot ladder once. He was quite happy and proud... till he had to figure out how to get down. I tried to help but he was in a hurry and went down the hard way. He's also jumped onto the fridge and tried to step down from it to poor results. Hahaha. Hes a 25lb savannah but he learned that day hes not as tall as a fridge.
Animal experts unanimously agree that pets can feel sad and depressed. How do veterinarians diagnose it? Usually, there's a change of behavior that the owner should notice.
Either a change in eating habits or less energy, but not all signs of depression are equal in all pets. For example, if a dog has depression, it might start licking its paws excessively. Cats, on the other hand, might begin ripping their hair out.
Why does a pet become depressed? Just like in humans, hormone changes might influence pet depression. If there's no underlying health issue, it might also be because of change. Whether it's a change of routine, their usual environment, or just people that they're used to.
A change in owners can be even traumatic for a pet. When there's a particularly strong bond between the pet and the owner, they might sense that the person has depression and start feeling depressed themselves.

If you notice, it's still snowing. Maybe they just haven't had time to shovel yet. Even if it wasn't still snowing, maybe they just woke up to the large snowfall and the poor doggo couldn't wait for shoveling to get his potty time. Best to get details before randomly calling people out like that.

So, how can pet owners help their depressed furry friends? The first step is to get a vet to do a checkup. As mentioned above, depression can sometimes be a sign of a more serious health problem. Ruling out other afflictions allows vets to pinpoint the cause of the problem.
And what's the treatment for pet depression, you ask? Well, it's not that dissimilar to human depression. Exercise and fresh air, for one, are great for depressed pets, too. Exercising will release hormones the pet needs to feel better. If it's a depressed cat, you might want to spend more time with them.
Extra cuddles and playtime applies to dogs as well, especially if the cause of their depression is a new family member, such as a baby. In worst-case scenarios, vets can prescribe medication. Paxil, Prozac, and Zoloft are usually the medicines for depressed pets.

Defeat
T'Mar of Vulcan 1 year ago
That was our cat when he managed to slice his paw open! He had a bandage and cone of shame but he wouldn't do anything with it on, so the vet said to try a sock instead. He'd go out etc but the LOOK! Utter defeat. "Why is this thing on me? WHYYYYY??"
SparkDragon 1 year ago
Years back, one of our cats broke his leg and we had to keep him confined so he wouldn't try jumping up anywhere. We got him in a large roofed pen in the kitchen, so he could still see what was going on and remind the others that he was still the boss. Well, the next morning we came down and found the pen empty, except for an unoccupied cast and our cat happily limping up to us to say hi. He had somehow managed to widen the gap above the door to about 10cm then squeeze through it (bearing in mind, he was a big, muscular cat), leaving the cast behind. Needless to say, we had another trip to the vet and thoroughly blocked every potential exit. This time, he stayed put, healed fully and lived to about 20, so all good in the end

A sad pet doesn't always equal a depressed pet. As clearly evidenced from this list, sometimes they're just having a bad day. John Woods, founder of All Things Dog, told Romper that it's important to differentiate when the pet is seriously sad and when they've just had a difficult day.

A sudden loss of appetite is one sign that your pet might be unhappy. And if your pet is starting to eat like crazy, they're also trying to tell you that something's wrong. Basically, what you want to do is watch out if there are any deviations from regular eating patterns. Dog behaviorist Cesar Milan writes on his blog that this could be one of the signs of pet depression as well.

Rollpet adds that disinterest in other pets also qualifies as a possible sign of depression. Sometimes, pets can lose interest in playing with other pets that they've always had fun with. If they start biting or scratching their play partner, that's a sign they don't feel comfortable around them for some reason. Experts advise not to push your pet and give them time to adjust.

Alarming body language can include rounded and worried-looking eyes. If their ears are angled sideways or back and down, that's also a sign that the dog feels anxious. Their tails can also tell a lot about how they're feeling. It shouldn't be lower than usual, and the wag should be sweeping and loose.
Sometimes, pets might want to make themselves look smaller – that's also one sign of anxiety. Unnatural crouching with a lowered head and rounded back can signal that a pet is worried about something.

My Friend Helped Rescue A Raccoon That Was Stuck In A Drain
Xenia Harley 1 year ago
Years ago, the woman who rented the upstairs in the two family house I lived in used the garage with a manual garage door. A raccoon somehow got stuck and was dangling from the door, somehow it closed the door, and its foot got stuck. The woman's BF was afraid of the raccoon and got me to free it! (I just opened the door gently freeing the raccoon's foot, and it ran off.) I was never impressed by that BF! Poor thing had been stuck like that for a while, because you could see marks on the door where it was trying to free itself.
However, try not to jump to conclusions. All these signals by themselves might signify nothing. Context matters – always look at the bigger picture. If the pet isn't eating, wants more quiet time than usual, and avoids eye contact with the owner, that might indicate an anxiety or depression problem. Remember – it's always better to consult with a vet than try to diagnose your furry friend yourself.

I have a rescue cat who used to live in a very similar situation. They finally got rid of her, because she was marking the curtains. (Surprise, surprise!) I was slightly apprehensive about taking her on, because sometimes, when they’ve started behaviours like that, they don’t stop, even when you put them in a better environment. Anyways, I decided to give her a chance. It took her a long time to trust me and not be scared anymore (we’re talking several years here) but guess what? Never once marked the curtains at mine, nor displayed any other sort of stress behaviour like that, so I guess I must have done something right.

Bought my parents dog a really nice, big, 48x24 inch (120 by 60ish cm) orthopedic bed. Immediately stolen by their 6 LB kitten. It was so sad seeing him lay on the floor next to it while the 2nd one was being shipped. She also gets to drink first if they walk up to his water bowl at the same time.

You know of course that whichever bed the dog is in, is the bed that the cat will want to be in...

"Oh, That Is Why My Horse Has Been Limping In The Pasture". My Husband Is The Horseshoer

I appreciate the sentiments about avoiding animal cruelty, but I think hooves are made of the same material as hair / nail. I'm sure it was a little awkward because of poor footing/ uncomfortable but I wouldn't go so far at to think this is downright animal cruelty. It looks like they caught the issue pretty quickly. If they let this go for days and it caused a sore and the owners were negligent, then sure I can understand calling this animal cruelty. Just throwing out another perspective.

Yes and no. Where I'm at the glaciers left a LOT of rocks when they retreated. Every year brings up more rocks. Every field has it own hill of rocks the farmers have gathered from the rest of the field. Some of these hills are as big as a house. Hard to police that

Coyote Lays In My Dog's Bed

My previous rottie pouted when he would lay down to let squirrels greet him, and then they would leave... he loved all little animals. The rottie I have now, lives solely to keep them from having an imaginary squirrel uprising that kills us all.

I'm not ready to have a dog at this present time, but when I can have a dog in my life again, I am getting a Rottie. I absolutely love them, have never owned one, but I have had large breed dogs in the past.( a lab, and a boxer/pit bull mix). I have spent quite a bit of time with the breed and thanks for showing how sweet and adorable this often misjudged breed can be. 🫶

My Dog Was Slow, Afraid Of The Door, And I Forgot My Hotel Key Card
I stayed at a hotel and was taking one of the dogs out for a potty break. I held the slow-closing exit door open for her. After seeing her following me, I looked forward and let go of the door with plenty of time for her to pass through. My Great Dane is super unaware of her size. The door started closing and she bailed on exiting the building. I feel a tug on the leash and look back, realizing the door is locked, I reach for my key and realize I forgot my access key card.

My Neighbor’s Cat Is Outside Trying To Get In My Back Door 90% Of The Time. It’s Currently 19°F Where I Live
He is the sweetest boy, and I am very friendly to him. I pet him when I see him, but I had severe respiratory issues when I lived with cats previously, so I can’t let him hang out in my apartment.

Poor baby!! so sad that his owners left him outside in that weather!! 😢 I bet the op feels bad they can't let him in, but their health is important too. I hope they either confront the neighbors about this or get someone professional involved.

They can't, severe allergies. Blame the owner/neighbor who let him out in that weather in the first place.

I had to look this up. It's an operation for "osteochondritis dissecans". This "typically occurs in rapidly growing large breed dogs between 6 and 9 months of age". So thankfully it should not need more operations when it's fully adult.
