Happy New Year from all of us to you!! 🥳

Thank you everyone for giving us another wonderful year! We’re so grateful and appreciative for our community—words can’t even begin to describe! 🫶 🥰We wish all the families and their fur babies a great new year full of nothing but the best, and good health!! ♥️ 🐾

Have fun out and stay safe everyone! We’ll see you all in 2026 ! 😀👍🏼

Happy New Year 🥳

As we say goodbye to one year and welcome the next, sometimes all we truly need is a hug.

Not grand promises or loud celebrations, just warmth, comfort, and a quiet moment to breathe. Ending the year with love makes the new one feel lighter already.

Cats remind us how powerful gentle presence can be. Their quiet affection, soothing purrs, and calm companionship support our mental health and emotional well being every day.

Sharing life with a cat brings peace, reduces stress, and softens difficult moments, especially during times of change.

Here is to a new year that arrives gently. May it bring healing, safety, and quiet joy into our lives.

Hold your loved ones close, cherish your pets, and step forward with hope and gratitude.

🎆 New Year’s Eve Pet Safety Reminder 🐾
While we’re getting ready to ring in the New Year, many of our pets are feeling anything but festive. Loud noises and bright lights can be very scary for animals.

🐶🐱 Common New Year’s Eve triggers for pets include:
• Fireworks & loud popping sounds
• Party noise & crowds
• Flashing lights
• Doorbells ringing frequently
• Unfamiliar guests
• Changes to routine

💡 How you can help keep your pets calm:
✔️ Keep pets indoors during fireworks
✔️ Create a quiet, cozy safe space
✔️ Close windows & curtains to block noise and flashes
✔️ Play soft music or white noise
✔️ Make sure collars & microchip info are up to date
✔️ Never leave pets outside unattended

If your pet has severe anxiety around loud noises, reach out to your veterinarian ahead of time to discuss calming options.

Let’s make sure every member of the family — furry ones included — starts the New Year safe and stress-free. 🐾

💨 Great tips for windy weather! 💨

PLEASE, PLEASE check your gates and make sure that the latches are secure. So many animals get out of their yard with these high winds.

Stay warm out there friends! 🧥 🧤

With the temperatures getting colder, make sure you are aware of what temperatures can be dangerous and uncomfortable for your pet.

They don’t understand the noise—only the fear.

This New Year’s Eve, let’s celebrate with kindness.

Fireworks may be fun for us, but they cause fear and pain for dogs and cats, especially strays with nowhere to hide.

Torotot muna, huwag paputok. 🎉
Let’s keep dogs and cats safe this New Year’s Eve. 🐾💛
