Why does my cat like to lick then bite me out of nowhere?
My cat is normally pretty lovey, but she's been acting up recently. She still cuddles up and starts licking my hand when I pet her, but then she just bites me randomly. Is this normal or is there another reason my cat has been doing this?
Best home remedies for my dog's diarrhea?
My poor dog has diarrhea. I’ve got a vet appointment scheduled for tomorrow, but in the meantime, I really want to make sure she’s comfortable. I’m worried specifically about dehydration, I know dogs can get into a kind of dangerous territory when they have diarrhea and don’t drink enough water. My girl seems fine otherwise, but are there any warning signs I should look out for? Any tips on making sure she’s comfortable? Any home remedies for diarrhea I can try?
I have a cat problem
There’s this stray cat that really likes me and my family and we care for her. The stray cat is gray. She is very friendly compared to other cats. The day this was written, a new cat came, and we want to care for it as well. It’s white with colored spots. But we have a problem - the two cats don’t like each other very well and the gray cat went and scared the spotted cat. The gray cat even tried to eat the spotted cat’s food so I had to scruff her with my sister! I am upset for the spotted cat and want him or her to know that we are safe and we will care for it. Can someone help?

Puppy Potty Training
We adopted a 5 mos old terrier mix. Prior to us adopting him he was in a foster. The foster had a doggie door so he had access to the yard at all times. He does really well with letting us know when he has to go potty and we walk him often. He doesn’t really have accidents in the house.
I assume because he always had the doggie door that he likes going in the yard. He has picked a spot in my yard and goes even on leash but I don’t want him going in the yard where my kids play.
HOWEVER, when I walk him he will let me take him for long walks but will not go potty the entire time. He will hold it until we get back and pull me to the yard. If I don’t let him go in the yard he will hold it until we get in and go in one spot in my basement.
Any idea how I can break him of that so that he goes potty outside while we are walking rather than my yard. I have always leash trained my dogs and never had one that was yard trained first so I want to make sure I don't confuse him or reverse the training he has already had.

I'm not a huge fan of dogs like most people I meet are, but why are dogs so loved while cats are so hated?
