Did you know that dogs have a unique way of cooling down? 🐶 While humans sweat to cool off, dogs produce an oily substance full of pheromones, which we can't smell. So, don't expect to see your furry friend with damp armpits anytime soon! 😅 Instead, dogs sweat through their paws and cool down by panting. That's why it's important to keep them cool on warmer days. Let's make sure our pups stay happy and comfortable this summer! ☀️

Did you know your feline friend spends most of their life snoozing away? Cats sleep about 13 to 16 hours a day, equivalent to two-thirds of their lifetime!

Don't worry, though, it's perfectly normal for cats to catch plenty of Z's. In fact, all that rest helps them conserve energy for when they're ready to pounce on their next toy or hunt down some catnip.
