Why do cats love drinking from our glasses? 😸💧

If you’ve ever turned around to find your cat’s entire head in your water cup… you’re not alone!

Here are a few reasons our feline friends prefer your glass over their own bowl:

• Freshness factor: A tall glass feels like a brand-new water source — cats are naturally drawn to fresher, moving, or “different” water.
• Curiosity at work: Your cup smells interesting, looks interesting, and is placed exactly where they’re not supposed to be.
• Height matters: Cats often prefer elevated water; it feels safer than bending down to the floor.
• They want to be where you are: If you’re sipping from it, it must be important… so they want in on the action.

At .dumbo - we love these classic cat quirks — but we also love hydration. If your cat suddenly starts drinking a lot more or a lot less water, that’s something we should take a look at.

💚 For our current clients, telemedicine is available 24/7 through our partnership with if you ever have a concern.

Caring for Your Pet Rabbit 🐇💚. .dumbo can help!

Rabbits make wonderful companions, and with a few simple habits, you can help them stay healthy and active.

Can rabbits become overweight?
Yes—mostly when they get too many pellets or treats. A hay-based diet and room to hop around keep them in great shape.

A few health basics to know:

• Healthy digestion depends on lots of fiber (unlimited hay!).
• Teeth never stop growing, so chewing hay and leafy greens helps keep them in good condition.
• Soft, supportive flooring prevents sore feet.
• Daily movement keeps their joints and hearts happy.

A balanced diet, a safe space to explore, and regular check-ins with your vet go a long way in helping your rabbit thrive.

If you ever have questions about diet, behavior, or creating a rabbit-friendly home, we’re here to help. 🐾

Cats + Holiday Plants = A Curious Combo 🎄🐾

If your cat is curios, at anything green becomes an instant snack. This time of year, that curiosity often turns toward festive indoor plants—some of which can cause tummy upset or worse.

🎍 Common Holiday Plants to Watch Out For:

• Poinsettias: Mildly toxic—can cause drooling, vomiting, or irritation
• Lilies: Extremely dangerous for cats; even small amounts can lead to kidney failure
• Mistletoe & Holly: May cause vomiting, diarrhea, or lethargy
• Amaryllis: Can trigger stomach upset and changes in behavior
• Christmas Trees (pine needles): Can irritate the mouth and stomach if chewed

😼 Signs Your Cat May Have Nibbled Something Unsafe:

• Drooling
• Vomiting or diarrhea
• Pawing at the mouth
• Sudden lethargy
• Refusing food
• Changes in balance or behavior

💡 What You Can Offer Safely:

Cat-safe greens like wheatgrass or cat grass (as seen in this video!) are a great alternative for curious nibblers.

📞 When to Call .dumbo
If your cat shows any sudden symptoms, you suspect they ate part of a toxic plant, or you’re simply unsure—give us a call. We can guide you quickly on whether your cat needs an exam, supportive care, or monitoring at home.

Keep your home festive and feline-friendly this season. 🌿💚
