It's easy to increase vertical territory. You can stick to basics or get as elaborate as you'd like. What matters most is that the vertical space you create is comfortable and safe. In a multicat household, vertical territory can play a big role in helping to keep the peace. One of the easiest ways to create vertical territory is with a cat tree. There are so many styles to choose from but just make sure the one you pick is very sturdy just in case your cat decides to take a flying leap from the floor to the top perch. A well-made cat tree will last your cat's lifetime.

🚰 PSA for Pet Parents: Keep That Water Fresh! 🐾

Your dog’s water bowl isn’t just a hydration station—it can also become a breeding ground for bacteria and slime (yep, that gross pinkish film you sometimes see—called biofilm). Left unchecked, it can lead to upset tummies, bad breath, and even illness.

💧 The Rule of Thumb:
• Change water daily (more often if your pup drools in it, dunks toys, or snacks right before sipping).
• Wash the bowl every day with hot, soapy water or run it through the dishwasher.
• Deep clean weekly to keep bacteria and algae at bay.

🥇 Best Bowls to Use:
• Stainless steel – Top choice! Non-porous, easy to clean, and resistant to bacteria.
• Ceramic – Good option if it’s high-quality, food-safe glazed, and free of chips/cracks.
• Avoid plastic bowls – They can scratch easily, trap bacteria, and sometimes leach chemicals.

🐶 Pro Tip: Have 2–3 bowls per dog so you can swap them out while one’s being washed. Your pup gets a fresh, clean drink every time, and you get peace of mind knowing you’re keeping them healthy from the inside out.

Clean bowl, happy dog, fewer vet bills. 🐕💦
