PETS at risk of self-harm are increasingly being prescribed anti-depressants because they cannot discuss problems in their lives with others, a leading veterinarian says. Zoo and wildlife medicine specialist with the UK’s Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, Romain Pizzi, told the Telegraph that more pets were being prescribed Prozac.

Yep. Pet psychology. That's where the money is. Talk to the pet for an hour and charge the owner a hundred bucks. How they gonna know if it works or not?
I'm hooked on Dog Whisperer on National Geographic channel. That guy turns dogs around in minutes. It's amazing.
Oh brother!
I wish I had my cat's problems! LOL
Gosh, I hope this is a hoax.
Better to give Prozac to pets than to kids.
The glass is at least half-full.
Sounds funny, but I think my mini-daschund is OCD. Give her a new toy and she is obsessive about it for days - lies down in front of it and stares at it for hours - won't eat or sleep. And if anyone comes near it she growls - but doesn't play with it herself for the first week or so.
After that, it's just another toy, and she'll play with us (tag, fetch, etc.) with the new toy.
But I can't afford counseling. She'll just have to be OCD.
