Simple and inexpensive !!

Every year, the days leading up to and following the 4th of July, shelters everywhere fill up with animals frightened by fireworks. ☹️🎆
Please put a phone number on your pet. You don't have to spend any money because you likely already have these things in your home!
Grab some tape (duct tape or painters tape works great), a sharpie or an ink pen and make this minimal effort to keep your pet from ending up at a shelter.
Even if you think there's no way they can or will escape your property, just do it.
Finding a stray animal with a phone number makes it SO SIMPLE to reunite them with their owner.
Let's make a difference this holiday and keep animals from ending up at the shelter.
Lastly, Please spay/neuter your pets.
Shelters are drowning in homeless pets😔

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!

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?

Happy Father's Day to all the pet dads who've mastered the art of one-handed coffee drinking while holding a leash!
To celebrate, we're sharing our favorite dad jokes: "What do you call a cold pet? A chili dog!" and "What did the cat say on Father's Day? I'm very fond of you!"
Share your best (worst) pet-related dad joke in the comments!

That obsessive paw-licking might not be what you think. Summer brings a perfect storm of itch triggers—new pollens, bug bites, higher humidity causing yeast, and even sunburn on light-colored pets. If your pet's scratching like they're hiding lottery tickets, it's time for some detective work. Notice patterns? Morning scratching vs. night? After being outside? Stop by and we can help relieve those allergies! https://us.vetstoria.com/booking/66b695fdbfc50/?r=6

We've all heard about hot cars and scorched pavement, but let's talk about the sneakier summer dangers: BBQ skewers left at snout level, open windows without screens, fertilizers that curious paws track inside, and water bowls that grow algae in the heat. What surprising summer hazard have you discovered? Drop us a warning below!

Let's talk cat hugs! For some cats, a full embrace means war. For others, it's bliss. Most prefer the "slow blink" love language or a gentle chin scratch. What's your cat's affection style? And how many of you have cats that only want hugs when YOU'RE busy? (We see you, lap-seeking cats who appear during Zoom calls.)
