Feeling a little stir-crazy after the holiday let-down? Shake off that post-holiday stress and get outdoors with your dog! A brisk walk, a trip to the park, or even a backyard game of fetch is the perfect way to keep your pup happy and healthy while enjoying some fresh air together. Check out this blog from Well Pets for some ideas.

High-fat holiday foods can affect both dogs and cats beyond a simple tummy ache. Pancreatitis is a serious and painful condition caused when enzymes inside the pancreas become activated, causing inflammation that damages the surrounding tissues. Especially for pets that have a history of pancreatitis, one meal of indulgent, fatty foods can lead to a relapse.

Planning to travel with your cat over the holiday? Prep is key, especially if you're traveling by air. Familiarize your cat with the carrier using comforting smells and positive experiences, and consider calming sprays to help ease their anxiety. Check airline requirements for health certificates, vaccination records, and carrier size. Don't forget to pack essentials like puppy pads to line the carrier in case of accidents, a harness for safely removing your cat during security checks, and consider only a light pre-travel meal to help prevent nausea.

The holidays are coming, and that means more excitement, visitors, and decorations—but let’s not forget our furry friends in all the hustle and bustle!

Here are a few tips to prepare your dog for a happy holiday season:
1️⃣ Know what your dog can handle and plan according. That might mean leaving your furry family member at home for some events or creating a calming place away from the excitement.
2️⃣ Make sure you have supplies on hand such as food and special, dog-friendly treats, so your dog can join in the fun and form positive associations.
3️⃣ Try to keep feeding, walking, and playtime schedules consistent. A little normalcy can go a long way during the chaos.
4️⃣ New training might be a bit much for this time of year, but brush up on previously learned basics ahead of the holiday craziness.
5️⃣ Keep toxic foods and harmful decorations out of reach.
