PUPPIES are susceptible to Parvo, a very serious viral disease. Have your puppy vaccinated to keep him healthy and don't expose him to unnecessary germs until he has had all 3 of his first year boosters.
CATS can become pregnant at 6 months of age. MAMA CATS can become pregnant while they are still nursing their babies.
