    Anxiety - Medical Marijuana For Pets?

    So I’m feeling very guilty... I rescued Dusty 2.5 years ago when he was 8 weeks old and one day when I was playing with him he had a bad fall and hit his head. I’m wondering, can that fall be the reason why he gets scared of every noise that it causes him to literally jump? Is it my fault...

    8 Month Old Kitten Steps In Her Poop
