Happy 4th of July! 🎆

Wishing you and your furry companions a safe and happy holiday!

Brushing your dog or cat’s teeth may seem small, but it makes a huge impact! 🦷

Dental disease is one of the most common conditions in pets, and it can lead to pain, infections, and even organ issues.

Try brushing a few times a week and schedule annual dental cleanings to keep that smile healthy.

Heat wave got your active pet bouncing off walls?

Transform your living room into an indoor agility course! Use sofa cushions for jumps, rolled towels for weave poles, and cardboard boxes for tunnels.

Mental stimulation tires them out when physical exercise outdoors isn't safe. Share your DIY indoor pet entertainment hacks!

Some houseplants can be toxic to cats, even just a nibble can lead to serious health issues.

Popular plants like lilies, pothos, and philodendrons can cause vomiting, lethargy, and even organ failure. Keep your curious cat safe by researching pet-safe plants and keeping harmful ones out of reach.

Forget everything you've heard about removing ticks with petroleum jelly, burning, or twisting — those old tales can make things worse!

Here's what actually works: fine-tipped tweezers, grabbing as close to the skin as possible, and pulling straight up with steady pressure. No twisting!

Bring us any embedded ticks you're uncomfortable removing. What's your tick horror story?

Think your dog's a natural swimmer?

Surprisingly, many aren't! Even water-loving breeds can struggle with exit points in pools.

And did you know cats can actually swim but their tolerance for water varies by breed?

Maine C***s often enjoy splashing while Siamese typically perform Olympic-level jumps to avoid droplets.

What's your pet's weirdest water behavior?
