Happy Monday CAC friends!
🍂🦃 As Thanksgiving approaches, let's take a moment to reflect on the blessings that fill our lives, especially the furry, feathered, and scaly ones. Our pets are more than just animals; they are loyal companions who bring joy, comfort, and unconditional love into our homes. Whether they're wagging their tails, purring on our laps, or chirping a sweet tune, they remind us every day of the simple joys and the power of companionship.

This Thanksgiving, let's express our gratitude for the love they give and the happiness they bring, and also for the cherished family and friends who enrich our lives. 🌟🐾

What are you thankful for this season? Share your stories and let's celebrate the love that binds us all together! ❤️✨

Happy Caturday! 🐈💖
It's always a good day to debunk some common cat myths and ensure our feline friends stay healthy and happy.

🐾 Indoor cats can't get fleas! 🍂 The truth is, fleas can hitch a ride on our clothing or other pets, making it crucial to maintain preventative measures.
🐾 Indoor cats are safe from heartworms. However, mosquitoes 🦟can enter homes and transmit these parasites, so preventive medication is essential.
🐾 Indoor cats don't require veterinary care. Annual check-ups, age-appropriate lab work, and vaccines are vital for early detection of potential issues and to maintain overall health.

Nexgard Combo for cats helps prevent heartworms, fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites, which in turn help protect your fur kid from parasite-transmitted diseases.

Meet a furry friend Friday is here and we have a super brave and loved 💞 special fur friend we would like to introduce you to.
Meet Livi!! 😍
It's heartening to hear about Livi's progress with her chemotherapy treatment. Living with a condition like LSA, or lymphoma, is undoubtedly challenging, but it seems she is showing remarkable resilience. The fact that she was in remission for almost a year is a testament to her strength and the effectiveness of her treatment plan. Responding well to a second round of chemotherapy is also an encouraging sign, as it suggests that her body is still receptive to the treatment. It's important for her to continue receiving support from loved ones like Michael her technician for the day, and her medical team, as emotional and psychological support can be just as crucial as medical interventions in the journey towards recovery. Here's hoping for continued positive news and more milestones of remission in Livi's journey. ✨🙌🏽🙏🏽

Wellness Wednesday CAC Friends!

🦃🎄🐾 Holiday Alert for Pet Parents! 🐾🎄🦃

As we deck the halls and prepare our homes for holiday festivities, it's important to remember that some of our favorite scents might not be so jolly for our furry friends. Many air fresheners and scented candles contain chemicals that can be harmful—or even toxic—to pets. Ingredients like phthalates, formaldehyde, and synthetic fragrances may cause respiratory issues, skin irritations, or other health problems. Pets have a more sensitive sense of smell and different metabolic processes than humans, making them particularly vulnerable. Consider opting for natural alternatives, such as essential oils in pet-safe diffusers, or simply ensuring good ventilation and using unscented products. Let's keep our homes festive and safe for all family members, human and animal alike!

Here are some great ideas and options for a non-toxic smelling home:

Monday Motivation CAC friends!

🌟 Gratitude is a powerful force that can transform our lives and open the door to abundance.
Today, we are taking a moment to reflect on all the good things we already have, inspired by the wise words of Eckhart Tolle:
“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.” 🙏

In our fast-paced world, it's easy to focus on what we lack, but embracing gratitude shifts our perspective to the beauty and richness already present. Whether it's the warmth of loved ones, the beauty of nature, the wagging tails or gentle purrs, or the simple joys of everyday life, there's always something to be thankful for.

Let's cherish these moments and build a foundation of abundance together! 💫
What are you grateful for today? Share in the comments below!

🐶 Welcome to Wellness Wednesdays, Pet Parents! 🐾

If you have a large breed dog like a Great Dane, Greyhound, or Boxer, it's crucial to be aware of a serious condition called bloat, or Gastric Dilation and Volvulus (GDV). This occurs when a dog's stomach fills with gas or food, causing it to stretch and twist. This twist can cut off blood supply and trap contents in the stomach, quickly becoming a life-threatening emergency.

📞 In such cases, having the contact information for your nearest emergency clinic and veterinary office readily accessible is vital. Time is of the essence!

At CAC, we offer a preventative procedure called prophylactic gastropexy, which anchors the stomach to prevent twisting. This can be done during your puppy's spay or neuter to help safeguard against this condition.

Let's also remember their loyal canine counterparts, who have stood by their side through countless challenges. These incredible dogs have provided not only critical support in various operations but also companionship and comfort to our soldiers. Today, we salute the incredible bond between veterans and their service dogs, recognizing their joint sacrifices and the remarkable teamwork that keeps us safe. Thank you to all veterans, both human and canine, for your service and sacrifice. 🇺🇸

Happy Caturday indeed!
Our feline companions truly set the standard when it comes to relaxation and self-care. Their ability to transform any corner into a perfect nap nook is nothing short of impressive. Whether they're basking in a sunbeam on your windowsill, curled up in the comfiest chair, or snug in a cardboard box, cats remind us of the importance of taking time to unwind. Their frequent catnaps, which can add up to an astounding 12 to 16 hours a day, are a testament to their dedication to rest.
So, let’s celebrate our furry friends’ sleepy antics!
Share your favorite photo of your cat curled up in a funny position and spread the joy of Caturday.

Happy Monday Motivation CAC friends.

Did you know it takes an average of 66 days to form a habit?

“Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.” – Aristotle

Consider starting a positively impactful behavior in your life. Incorporate your fur kid. Use your imagination! Maybe an extra walk together to get the mail? A quiet moment of mindful breathing? Treat yourself to a good habit! You deserve it!

Happy Caturday to all the kitty parents out there!
Brushing your cat is more than just a grooming routine; it's a vital part of their care and well-being. Firstly, it strengthens the bond between you and your feline friend, turning each grooming session into a moment of affection and trust. It also gives you a chance to monitor your cat’s skin and coat condition, helping you catch issues like fleas, lumps, or infections early. Regular brushing reduces hairballs, which can be uncomfortable for your cat, and prevents painful matting of their fur. These benefits underscore the importance of keeping a grooming routine.
