Very housebroken and can be in the house for 8 hours or more without an accident all of a sudden at night when we sleep she decides she is going to urinate on the couch or spare bed. We put plastic on there and have an old comforter and wash it everyday but she does it every night now. Even though she is left out everynight once or twice.

ANSWER

Dear,

You should apply ichtiol-camphor ointment (black ointment) if you haven’t use it, with bandage over it for few days. This will drain the liquids, if there are any.
If doesn’t help, vet surgeon should explorate the swelling for foreign bodies or correct the nails (if they make problems).

I find it disturbing when people espouse the opinion that animals do not have feelings. As an animal communicator I know for certain that they do, as they regularly share their feelings with me. Why is it that some people are so insistent that we not anthropomorphize animals? Could it be that ascribing emotions to animals means we would have to acknowledge they are sentient beings?

When my beautiful mare, Misty, lost her new filly she had tears running down her face. I had never before seen a horse cry, but that day Misty cried. She had so looked forward to being a mommy and she was devastated. She grieved her baby for months. Her usual spark was missing, so much so that she allowed two of the geldings to boss her around, effectively moving her down from second to fourth ranked in the herd. Her normal personality was very much an alpha mare so it was astonishing to see this change.

Later that year she started looking pregnant. The only stallion she had contact with was our mini, Arlo, who at 31 inches could not have done the deed…unless she laid down. Uh oh. Suddenly I started hearing stories about minis who had bred full-size horses.

That very cold and snowy December as her udder filled and began to wax I was checking her every two hours round the clock. This went on for two weeks with all the signs of impending birth. Then one day everything stopped. She had just gone through a false pregnancy!! She wanted that baby so badly that she imagined herself pregnant and manifested all the physical signs. If animals have no feelings then why did Misty grieve and experience a false pregnancy?

How many times have you heard about cats who suddenly stop using their litter box and soil the house? Often they are upset about something and are acting out those feelings desperately trying to communicate with their guardians.

I recently communicated with a cat who felt displaced by new family members and began to withdraw. As he withdrew further and further he left himself vulnerable and was eventually killed by predators. If he had no feelings he would likely still be alive.

Dogs are even more demonstrative, displaying a wide range of feelings. Is there any doubt about the joy they exhibit when their person comes home? My new puppy, a standard poodle, is one of the most demonstrative dogs I’ve ever met. She is filled with exuberance and loves to clown around for our amusement.

How many times have you seen a dog dreaming, talking in their sleep with their limbs jerking to and fro? Why would they dream if they have no feelings? What would be the purpose? And haven’t we all heard stories about dogs who gave their lives to save their person? Is that not love?

I haven’t even touched on their sense of humor. Some are sarcastic, others more thoughtful wise cracker types like a George Carlin, some are raucous, others have a dry wit. They run the gamut. One stallion I communicated with bragged about how “well endowed” he was. I think he got a kick out of the shock value. See, there’s another category: twisted humor.

I could go on and on with many anecdotes about all manner of animals who have expressed their feelings during communication sessions, but by now you probably get the idea. So just why are some people convinced that animals lack emotions?

The only conclusion I can come to is that believing they are “dumb” animals allows for treating them like inanimate objects, just another piece of property.

The Pet Chatter, Debbra Lupien, has always talked to her animals. But it wasn’t until she met Scenic Mist (Misty), that she learned animals can, and want to, communicate with humans. Thanks to strong motivation from Misty, she learned to have a two-way conversation (telepathic animal communication) very quickly.

Misty was the most challenging horse Debbra had ever met. She was a dream horse to look at, but a nightmare to handle. She was aggressive and bad tempered, with a huge chip on her shoulder…at least from outward appearances. Once Debbra learned to open the animal communication channel, she was able to get Misty’s side of the story and realized that Misty had some valid reasons for her attitude. As those issues were resolved, Misty was transformed into a true equine partner.

Since then, Debbra has taken every opportunity to communicate with animals and hone her ability. What a revelation it is to directly communicate with the animal rather than having to guess what is going on. Debbra now regularly shares her stories and insights on her blog: http://www.lupien.net/petsaretalking

According to age and symptoms I suspect on kidney failure. Unfortunately you must visit a vet for further examinations.

Probiotics are not choice of therapy for vomiting.
Minimize all proteins in the food : meet, milk, etc…This will prolong your pet’s life if kidneys are problem.

QUESTION:

I found this lump under his skin just above the last rib.It’s about the size of a peanut m&m.It doesn’t bother him not even when I lightly squeeze it.What could it be and how can I help him now?

ANSWER

Dear,

The lump can be either lipoma, which is benign, or might be lymph node. But for certain a vet should decide. Unfortunately I can’t help you much by Internet, except the fact if it doesn’t continue to grow or if reduces, it won’t be a problem.
