It's duckling and gosling season! Did you know feeding bread or popcorn to birds is not safe? It can lead to serious medical issues, including angel wing, which prevents birds from being able to fly. If you want to feed the ducks and geese, feed waterfowl pellets, cracked corn, oats, rice, birdseed, frozen peas, chopped lettuce, or sliced grapes.

Did you know that when training your dog, it is best to use both visual and verbal cues? Dogs actually respond better to visual cues than verbal cues, but if you combine the 2, dogs have a much more accurate response rate to what you ask them to do. Using both visual and verbal cues also gives you 2 ways to communicate with your dog. If it is dark out or your dog is out of sight, you can communicate with them using your voice. If you are in a noisy environment or you don't want to disrupt the quiet environment you are in, you can communicate with them using your hand signals.

Fun Fact Friday

Did you know that dogs can detect changes in their humans heart rate and blood sugar levels, or detect that their human is about to have a seizure, amongst other medical changes? They do this by smelling changes in our body chemicals, which change with medical events and even our emotions. This is why service dogs can be very beneficial to people with medical concerns. They can alert their handler to an oncoming issue before their person or, in some cases, medical devices can detect the oncoming episode. This is why it is important to not talk to or try to engage with service dogs. Any distractions for the dog can lead to the dog missing these changes in their humans, preventing them from warning their person of the change.

Did you know cottontail rabbits have babies from February through September in Oklahoma? One rabbit can have 3 - 5 litters each year. So what do you do if you find a baby bunny? Chances are, momma rabbit is close by. They only nurse their babies twice a day, once early in the morning and again late in the evening. If you find a nest of bunnies and are concerned something has happened to mom, you can create a tic-tac-toe with small twigs or long pieces of grass over the nest or circle the nest with flour. If the tic-tac-toe or flour goes undisturbed for 24 hours, call your local wildlife rehabilitation center. WildCare Oklahoma is located in Noble, but has drop off locations in the city.

Severe Weather Safety Tips for your pets

With storm season upon us, make sure all your pets have collars with your phone number on them, even if they are microchipped. This can lead to being reunited more quickly than if they are only microchipped.

Have harnesses, leashes and crates out and ready to go. Harness them before sirens go off.

Have any necessary meds, some food, water and bowls packed to quickly grab. You can include blankets or p*e pads for bathroom emergencies.

Make a practice run to your storm shelter so your pets can see it's not such a scary place. Make it fun. Include treats or favorite toys.

After any high winds, remember to check your fence and gates for any damage BEFORE letting your pet back outside.

What do you do to prepare for storm season?

Fun Fact Friday

Did you know that only 20% of orange cats are female? For a female cat to be orange, they have to receive the gene for the orange color from both parents. With all the possible colors for cats, there is only a one in 5 chance that a female will receive that gene from both of her parents. Orange cats also usually develope freckles around 1 or 2 years of age. These freckles are usually around the lips and nose.

Calico males are even more rare than orange females. Only about 1 in 3,000 calico or tortoiseshell cats are male. In order for a calico or tortoise shell to be male, that kitten has to receive an extra X chromosome, making them XXY. Due to this abnormality, male calicos usually have shorter lives.

Do you have a female ginger or a male calico?

Note: The orange cats in these photos are male, and the calico is female.

Wildlife Wednesday

Did you know adding dye to hummingbird nectar can be deadly for them? Simply boil one part sugar and 4 parts water and cool. Don't add anything else to the nectar. Wash feeders every 2 to 3 days. In Oklahoma, hummingbirds start showing up in March, and the stragglers are here through October.

Training Tip:

Did you know you can crate train your cats? Leave their crate out and only feed them in the crate. With a little time, they will run to their crate when it is feeding time. This is greatly beneficial for vet trips, tornado weather, or any other time you need to secure them. A crate trained cat will be much less stressed when they have to be crated than one that isn't crate trained.
