Animal Sitters NS

I’ve always (since I was a child) wanted to adopt senior doggos and kitties to give them the best end of life they could ever have. I have yet to be able to do this besides the care I provided to my family pets that grew old and passed. However, a thought came across my mind tonight that if I did a senior/palliative care animal rescue I could repeat the love I give to any senior/palliative or disabled animal (for whatever reason it needs a loving home) over and over and over so that the cycle of care continues for all those deserving animals out there who are getting close to their final days...

This idea struck me so viscerally that I had to write it down to post here... 🤔

This article perfectly explains why I won’t go more than one day without a visit for a single cat or more than two days for single/multiple cats within one week. I’ll never allow missing two days in a row no matter how many cats. 😿

“A cat expert shares the best tips to keep your feline friend happy and healthy while you’re away: If the owner is gone one or two days, and they’re getting their physical needs met in a very short visit from the cat sitter, that may be fine,” Delgado explains. “But if the owner continues to be gone, the cat may become more stressed and need much more interaction.” 😽

⚠️ Ugly Cry Alert ⚠️

When you need to say goodbye...

“There is knowledge beyond language. It’s not primitive; it’s precise. It’s our human language that’s the approximation. Dogs have this knowledge. We have it too, somewhere, but it’s harder to access; when we privilege that which can be expressed in words, we lose touch or lose faith in that knowledge that lies beyond them.”

Watching your dog age is one of the hardest parts of having a pet. Make their life comfortable and full of joy, and they'll know how much you love them until the very end.

Have you heard about Canine Blood Donation?

The Metro Animal Emergency Clinic is currently looking for prospective candidates to join our Canine Blood Donor Registry!

Dogs on our registry may be asked to donate blood several times a year, either as a planned scheduled donation or during an emergency. Owners are free to refuse at any time for any reason or if the timing is not convenient.

Dogs MUST MEET the following criteria to be part of this program :

- Between the ages of 2 and 5 years
- A MINIMUM of 55 pounds healthy body weight ( bigger is better!)
- Up to date on core vaccines ( recent titres are accepted in lieu of vaccines)
- On flea/tick prevention
- No other medications
- No known health issues or chronic health problems
- Have a relaxed, calm, comfortable demeanor at the vet. ( Why is this important? We do not want to cause anxiety or distress in our donors, as their mental and emotion health is just as important as another dog's physical health. )
