How To Keep Dogs and Cats From Fighting
Give the cat her own safe area to escape to when she needs it and keep her food bowl and litter box in a separate area from the dog. It might be a good idea to keep it permanently blocked from the dog by a baby gate or door.

Q:
My son's female doberman, age 2, was recently moved from one location to another, the last being in a kennel located at the edge of the woods. I have to say that there are lots of mosquitos here in Louisiana this year. She has been in this kennel for about a week, with my son spraying the area with mosquito spray and him tending to her daily. He was looking for a better place to keep her, and just today, found a place at his grandmothers house. The problem is, this morning, he found her to be humped in the back, not wanting to eat, no poop in the kennel in two days, and a clear drool coming out of her mouth from time to time. She is definitely not her normal self, and he is convinced that she is dying. Does this sound like an indigestion problem or something worse? He has no money right now for a vet, altho I offered to pay for it. He has been trying to tend to her himself. Do theses symtoms sound familiar to anyone? thank you so much.

A:The only advice that can be given is VET, VET, VET! If your son does not want to accept your money for help that's fine, you need to go get the dog and take it to the vet yourself.
A:Honestly, I think this dog needs to be removed from your son's care. Leaving a dog unattended for 2 days is not a nice thing to do at all. It's abuse. Dobies NEED people. All dogs need people, but dobies are velcro dogs and really, really NEED people around all the time.
A:She may have swallowed something that has caused a blockage or she may have bloat(common in dobermans) and could very well die if she is not rushed to the vet asap
