How can I stop my dog from chasing the cat?
Methods: socialize dog and cat from puppyhood so the dog respects the cat. For adult dogs, put the cat in a cage/safe spot, leash the dog near it; if it attacks/lunges, pull the leash and scold; if calm with no chase, reward. If hard to correct or serious conflict, get a professional behaviorist/trainer.

How can I teach my dog not to bite ducks?
Biting may stem from curiosity, play, prey drive, or fear. Keep the duck in a cage and leash the dog nearby so it can't harm the duck. When the dog shows attack behavior (low growl, lunging), scold it; reward it when it stops. Give snacks or toys to distract it.
How can I tell if my rabbit is pregnant?
If a female rabbit has mated and shows a big appetite, larger abdomen, frequent urination, swollen red genitalia, shinier coat, swollen nipples, looser hair roots, and weight gain, she is likely pregnant. Pregnant does may also pull fur, chew the cage, or carry hay to build a nest. In mid-to-late pregnancy, multiple hard lumps can be felt in the abdomen—signs the fetuses have formed.
