1)Look for signs of inflammation. Inflammation of a cat's nose is known as rhinitis, while inflammation of a cat's nasal passages is referred to as sinusitis. Both conditions can cause a stuffy nose. Symptoms of both conditions can include:
- Sneezing
- Discharge from the nose
- Stuffy nose
- Loss of appetite

2) Recognize common causes of a stuffy nose. There are a variety of factors that can cause inflammation of your cat's nose or nasal passages, leading to a stuffy nose. Common causes include allergies, tumors inside the nose, a foreign object lodged in the nasal passages, parasites, fungal infections, dental abscess, and bacterial or viral infections
3)Examine your cat for signs of an upper respiratory infection. The herpes virus and calicivirus cause a large percentage of stuffy noses. Signs of these viral infections include discharge from both nostrils that is clear or cloudy, as well as discharge from the eyes.

4)Let an upper respiratory infection run its course. An upper respiratory infection is characterized by sneezing, watery eyes, clear discharge from the nose, and coughing. If you suspect your cat's stuffy nose is caused by a common upper respiratory infection, you can just let the illness run its course. Most of these infections are short in duration and will clear up on their own within 7 to 10 days

5)Clean your cat's nose regularly. You can help your cat manage its stuffy nose by making sure its nose is clean. Wet a cotton ball with water and use it to gently wipe away any mucus from your cat's nose. Do this several times a day while your cat has a stuffy nose

6)Try steam therapy. If your cat is chronically congested, steam therapy can help. The warm v***r may help loosen mucus in your cat's nose and nasal passages, making it easier for the cat to breathe. Try taking your cat into the bathroom and closing the door. Turn a hot shower on for about 10 minutes and sit in the room with your cat during this time

7)Visit your vet. If your cat is having trouble breathing, you should make an appointment with your vet. A veterinarian can examine your pet and determine why it has a stuffy nose. The vet will perform a dental exam, blood work, and/or a

1) Register your dog and put tags on its collar. This will help assure that your dog will make it home if it gets lost or separated from you. Different states have different legislation regarding dog ownership. The local animal shelter or veterinarian is a good place to ask for a list of what you need to do to register the pet and whether it is necessary the pet wears a collar and tag at all times. Be aware that certain cities have restrictions on owning so-called "dangerous" dog breeds such as pit bulls or certain guarding breeds.

2)Treat your dog with respect. Never punish with physical force, or demean the dog in any way. This includes giving the dog a respectful name, rather than a name such as "Psycho" or "Killer," which could influence how other people act towards it.
If the dog misbehaves, always review what happened and ask how your actions or inactions may have contributed to his misdemeanor.

3)Be aware that your dog has basic needs that need to be fulfilled. For example, your dog needs the chance to go to the toilet regularly without soiling the house or itself. It is inhumane to keep a dog cooped up in a kennel for hours on end without human contact or the chance to relieve itself.

4)Make sure your dog has access to a comfortable place to sleep and is not left out in extreme temperatures. Leaving a dog outside on hot summer days or cold winter days without proper protection from the weather can injure, or kill, it. It is best to keep your dog inside during extreme weather but if you can't, make sure your dog has access to a good dog house and lots of water.

5)Build a bond of mutual love and respect with your dog. Dogs will love you forever if you treat them correctly. Spend time with your dog, getting to know its personality and what makes it tick. The more you really hang out with your dog the more fulfilling your life together will be.
Whatever you do, never hit your dog or abuse your dog in any way. The worst punishment for a dog is being yelled at after the deed is over and done

Brush your dog. The frequency of brushing will vary widely, depending on what type of dog you have and how much it sheds. Brushing your dog regularly will help to reduce shedding and it gives you a chance to assess the state of your dog's body. Your aim is to keep the coat in good condition and knot free. For this you may need a combination of comb and brush, to prevent knots and groom out tangles.
If your dog sheds a lot, pet stores and Walmart sell shed-control shampoo. Bathe shedding dogs once a week until shedding reduces.

Keep your dog's coat clean. Dirty coats can lead to secondary skin infections, so be prepared to bathe your dog with a mild dog shampoo if it gets really dirty. Most dogs don't need baths more than once every month or so, but this varies widely depending on breed and activities

Know that your dog's coat may grow and it will need to be trimmed by a dog groomer. If the fur grows too long it can irritate the dog between the toes, or prevent it from seeing properly. In addition, the dog is likely to sweep debris, such as sticks and grass, up in the coat, which could cause it discomfort.

Keep your dog's nails trimmed. It may be difficult to trim your dog's nails but it is important to keeping its paws healthy. Take it slow and steady, making sure to keep your cuts away from the quick, the inner part of the nail that is still alive. Cutting the quick could make your dog very, very resistant to nail trims in the future.
Train your dog to associate nail trims with good things. Give your pup a treat after trimming or take it on a trip to the park. Whatever you do, make sure to stay upbeat during the trim, no matter how hard it is to trim your pup's nails.

Feed your dog a high quality dog food. Read the label of a prospective food .The first couple ingredients should be some kind of meat, not meat by-product or a grain. This will help you know that the food is high in good protein, not just filler.
Ask your veterinarian for food recommendations. Your vet may be able to steer you towards a food that is just right for your pup and he or she may also have recommendations for how much to feed the dog.

Feed your dog on a regular schedule. It is recommended that you feed your dog twice a day. Figure out the proper amount you should be feeding your dog daily, which is usually on the dog food package, and divide that amount in two. Feed your dog the first half in the morning and the second half in the evening.
A stable routine of feeding can also help you with house training. Dogs usually have to go to the bathroom 20 - 30 minutes after eating.

Avoid giving your dog an excessive amount of treats or people food. This can lead to weight gain or health problems for your pet. Stick to the rule of only giving your dog treats when you're training it. Remember, this can be hard to follow, especially if your pup is looking at you with puppy dog eyes. However, stick to your guns!

Don't feed your dog food that is bad for it. There are many foods that are not only bad for your dog but that can be hazardous to its health. Do not give your dog any chocolate, avocado, bread dough, raisins, grapes, onions, or xylitol, which is a non-caloric sweetener.

Give your dog water. Food is not the only thing your dog needs to survive. Water is just as, if not more, important. Give your dog open access to water at all times. This doesn't mean that you have to give it access to water when it is unfeasible, for instance when you are in the car, but if it is possible you should supply a bowl of clean drinking water.
