Easter and Mother's Day are two of the most dangerous holidays for cats for one reason: lily poisoning. 💐

As a part of our No Lilies for Kitties educational campaign, we're kicking off the series by sharing which species of lilies are toxic to cats. True lilies (Lilium species) and daylilies (Hemerocallis species) are extremely toxic to cats and can potentially cause severe kidney failure. Check out the graphic below for examples, and visit the link below to learn more:

Today is Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day, a special day dedicated to remembering our beloved pets that have passed on. If you would like to, we invite you to post a memorial tribute to your pet in the comments so we can remember and honor all of these wonderful animal companions together.

On days like today, it’s understandable to feel overwhelmed by grief. Please know that you are not alone. Find additional information & support here: https://aercmn.com/for-pet-owners/resources/pet-loss-support

Cat owners and cat lovers, have you heard of Solensia? It's an injectable monoclonal antibody treatment for osteoarthritis in cats. Not sure if your cat may be showing signs of arthritis? Check out this Osteoarthritis Checklist: https://www.zoetispetcare.com/checklist/osteoarthritis-checklist-cat

We also had to share this video with you! Wayne is an 18yr old kitty who has had a few does of Solensia. While we don't have a before video, you can clearly see he is feeling GREAT! This video makes us all smile ear to ear and we hope it does the same for you.

One of our families said goodbye to their dog Simbha recently. Simbha genuinely had one of the sweetest souls we'd ever met. His family shared this beautiful tribute that they wrote:

"Celebrating Simbha's Life
Our hearts are filled with sadness and sorrow. Our dear Simbha crossed the rainbow bridge on Saturday, May 27th in our arms. Simbha gave us 12 wonderful years that we will cherish and treasure in our hearts forever. Our lives will truly never be the same without him.

From the moment we brought him home at 6 months old until his last breath, he was by our side and us by him. It is hard to encapsulate in words everything he meant to us, he was the gentlest soul and loved beyond measure .. he would wake up at the crack of dawn with so much zest and wind down everyday with a long belly rub session. Simbha would take treats out of your hand with the gentlest of licks and greet everyone with so much joy..usually he would bring a shoe as a welcome gift!! Simbha would wait for the UPS truck with immense patience, inspect every box for goodies, made friends with every neighbor and loved to be loved. In the spring he would feel the gentle breeze on his face, during the summer he would stretch out and sunbathe, in the fall he would always get dressed up as a pumpkin and in the winter he ate fresh snow with so much joy..he just loved life! He was so affectionate and would lean up against everyone he met...the love he showered us and everyone who he came across was unconditional ❤

To quote a song we played for Simbha during the last few weeks
“So let's lay down in the tall grass
Dreamin' away
And all I want to do is let it be
And be with you and watch the wind blow by
And all I want to see is you and me
Go on forever like the clear blue sky
Slowly, there's only you and I
And all I want to do is watch the wind blow by”

Our sweetheart Simbha will be so deeply missed and never forgotten. Until we meet again, at the rainbow bridge🌈 ❤️"

This article talks about reasons cats should see a vet annually and why many don't. One of the big reasons is transporting cats to the vet is often stressful. We can reduce that stress by seeing your feline friends in the comfort of their own home!

Cats go to the vet less than half as often as dogs, even though they require routine medical care. Here's why it's important to go.

This boy. Max - the King of Cats. With me for 12+ years. Always gentle. Always wanting to be where I was, with at least one paw in contact with my body. Best traveler ever - open the door to the kitty carrier and he sidles in and makes himself at home - and then, "enjoys the ride" in the car. Greete...
