🐱 Fun Cat Fact! 🐾

Did you know that cats have a special way of communicating with their humans? Unlike dogs, who use barking to express themselves, cats primarily use purring as a way to show contentment and affection. But here’s the interesting part: cats also purr to soothe themselves when they're in pain or stressed. It’s their way of self-soothing and healing!

So next time your cat purrs, whether they're curled up on your lap or exploring their favorite spot, know that it's their way of saying, “I’m happy and comfortable with you.”

🐾 Animal Pain Awareness Month: Recognizing the Signs 🐾

September is Animal Pain Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness about the signs of pain in our pets. Animals often hide their pain, making it crucial for us to recognize the subtle signs. Here’s what to look out for:

1. Changes in Disposition 🐶: Increased aggression, anxiety, or withdrawal can indicate pain.
2. Altered Eating Habits 🍽️: A sudden loss of appetite or difficulty eating may be a red flag.
3. Mobility Issues 🐕: Limping, stiffness, or reluctance to move can signal discomfort.
4. Vocalization 🐱: Excessive whining, crying, or purring can be ways pets express pain.
5. Physical Changes 👀: Swelling, redness, or abnormal posture might point to underlying issues.

If you notice any of these signs, consult with us. Early detection and treatment can make a significant difference in your pet’s quality of life.

Let’s work together to ensure our pets live pain-free, happy lives. Share this post to help spread awareness!

You've asked and we've responded! Here is a top pet-related question from the past month:

Q: How do I know if my dog is overweight?

A: You should be able to feel your dog’s ribs without pressing too hard and see a noticeable waist when viewed from above. If you’re unsure, we can help determine your dog’s ideal weight and recommend a diet and exercise plan.

🐾 Myth Buster! 🐾

Myth: A wagging tail always means a happy dog.

Reality: While dogs often wag their tails when happy, they can also do so when anxious, agitated, or even aggressive. It's essential to observe their overall body language and context to understand their true feelings. Stay informed for a better bond with your furry friend! 🐶💡
