🦃🍂 Thanksgiving Pet Safety Reminder 🍂🦃

Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to gather with loved ones, but it can also bring some hidden dangers for our furry family members. Here are a few tips to help keep your pets safe this holiday:

⚠️ Food Hazards – Turkey bones, onions, garlic, chocolate, grapes, raisins, and rich or fatty foods can be toxic or harmful to pets. Stick to pet-safe treats instead!

🔥 Hot Surfaces & Candles – With extra cooking and cozy candles, watch out for curious paws and wagging tails near stoves, fireplaces, and open flames.

🚪 Door Safety – Guests coming and going mean pets could slip out unnoticed. Make sure collars and tags are secure, and consider a quiet room for pets who may be stressed by the activity.

🍁 Decorations – Keep an eye on festive décor like corn cobs, ribbons, and plants that could be chewed on or swallowed.

Wishing you and your pets a safe, happy, and tail-wagging Thanksgiving! 🐾❤️

🐾✨ Exciting Times! ✨🐾

Back in July, we started fostering and facilitating adoptions for kittens, and since then we’ve helped 8 little ones find their forever homes! 💕🏡

We’re so happy to be able to give these kittens a safe start and help connect them with loving families. Anyone interested is welcome to stop by during our regular business hours to meet our current foster kittens.

Right now, we have one adorable, spunky black kitten named Elvira 🖤 who is looking for her forever home. She’s full of energy, curiosity, and of course—plenty of cuteness! 🐱💫

Come say hi to Elvira—you might just meet your new best friend!

🐱💡 Did you know? Cats don’t only purr when they’re happy! While purring is often a sign of contentment, cats may also purr when they’re feeling nervous, stressed, or even when they’re in pain.

It’s their way of self-soothing, much like how humans might hum or fidget. Some studies even suggest purring has healing properties, helping cats recover by reducing pain and promoting healing. ✨

So next time your kitty purrs, remember—it could mean happiness, comfort, or even that they’re trying to calm themselves. 💕

🐾 Litter Box Tips for a Happy Cat! 🐾

Keeping your cat’s litter box clean and comfortable is one of the best ways to support their health and happiness. Here are a few helpful tips:

✅ One box per cat + one extra – Cats prefer having options!
✅ Quiet location – Place litter boxes in calm, low-traffic areas.
✅ Scoop daily – A clean box encourages regular use and reduces odors.
✅ Wash regularly – Empty and scrub the box with mild soap every couple of weeks.
✅ Try different litters – Some cats prefer certain textures or scents (unscented is often best).
✅ Watch for changes – If your cat suddenly avoids the litter box, it may be a sign of stress or a medical issue.

A clean, stress-free litter box = a happy kitty 🐱💖

🐾 Thinking about adding a new puppy to your family? 🐶💛
Bringing home a puppy is an exciting time, but a little preparation goes a long way to make the transition smooth and happy for both of you!

✨ Puppy Prep Tips:

🏠 Create a safe space: Set up a cozy area with a bed, water, and toys where your puppy can relax.

🍽️ Gather supplies: Food and water bowls, puppy food, a collar and leash, ID tag, and chew toys are must-haves.

📚 Plan for training: Start with basic commands and house training right away—consistency is key.

🧸 Puppy-proof your home: Keep cords, shoes, and harmful items out of reach of curious paws.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family prep: Talk with your household about routines, responsibilities, and boundaries so everyone’s on the same page.

🩺 Schedule a vet visit: Puppies need vaccines, parasite prevention, and a health check to start off strong.

🐕🐈 Introducing to other pets: Go slow! Allow short, calm introductions in a neutral space. Always supervise interactions at first, and give your resident pets their own safe zones so they don’t feel crowded. Patience and positive reinforcement help everyone adjust.

Adopting a puppy is a big responsibility, but also a big joy! 🥰 With love, patience, and preparation, your new best friend will be set up for a lifetime of happiness by your side. 🐾❤️
