OK...here are some "pet facts"...\n\nAbout 60 percent of all households in the United States have a pet. (Source: American Veterinary Medical Association)\n\nAbout 60 million dogs and about 75 million cats are owned in the United States. (Source: Pet Food Institute)\n\nAccording to the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy (NCPPSP), about 65 percent of pet owners acquire their pets free or at low cost.\n\nThe majority of pets are obtained from acquaintances and family members. About 15 to 20 percent of dogs are purchased from breeders, 10 to 20 percent of cats and dogs are adopted from shelters and rescues, and 2 to 10 percent are purchased from pet shops. (Source: Ralston Purina and NCPPSP)\n\nAt least 20 percent of cats are acquired as strays. (Source: NCPPSP) Many strays are lost pets who were not kept properly indoors or provided with identification.\n\nMore than 20 percent of people who leave dogs in shelters adopted them from a shelter. (Source: NCPPSP)\n\nThe cost of spaying and neutering a pet is less than the cost of raising puppies or kittens for one year.\n\nThe average cost of basic food, supplies, medical care and training for a dog or cat is $400 to $700 annually.\n\nAbout 75 percent of owned pets are neutered.\n\n\nAll data are ASPCA estimates unless otherwise indicated.

I love it!  Is there any good online source that lets you put in DOB's to get information?\n\nThe only thing I know about it is Tigers and Dogs are supposed to make great companions.  \n\nHow about the elements?  Like Wood and metal?

Ok, question for you...What planet do you live on, which country...and Why do you want it?\n\nUm, try a scientific supply catalog, or a vet supply store, or a feed store, they use it on animals alot.
