Tuesday tip: Provide plenty of enrichment and playtime.

Cats need mental and physical stimulation to stay healthy and happy. Try incorporating interactive toys, scratching posts, and climbing trees into your home. Spend at least 10-15 minutes a day engaging in play with your cat to help keep them active and satisfied. 🐱🤍

Hey everyone! Dont forget to stock up on your pet supplies such as litter, dry and can food, water, small trash bags for dirty litter, medicines, paper plates and bowls for cat food, and get a copy of your pet's medical records! Also if you dont have a carrier, go ahead and get one for future evacuation needs!

Meet Teddy. He’s a rescue from Charleston Animal Society.

He raised the most money for the shelter in the cat division so he got his face on a beer can — Rescue Brew! 🥹🍻

Precious! Let’s congratulate him in the comments! ✨📸👏

Some volunteers are having to cancel for this clinic due to illness. We could really use some extra hands in the more critical roles, marked by an asterisk: https://signup.com/go/WqXMjXL

So the excitement never ends! Had to go out of town last Thurs and there was a fire right near us at 2am one nite. We got to call 911 and everything and were without power for 7 hours. Luckily I had 2 fireman with me so they were on the ball. Get home Sun nite and started having foot issues. Could barely walk and the pain was horrible. Go to dr this am and was referred to a foot surgeon. (By the way if anyone needs a foot dr please go see Chris Gross with MUSC. He is amazing, funny, super smart and adores his cats!!). Diagnosed with stress fractures and tendonitis. Im in a walking boot for the next 4 weeks. So much fun doing farm chores as Im clod hopping along!
The animals are looking at me like Im a nutcase and are obsessed with sniffing and pawing at the boot! We will be back at work tomorrow and will be working late getting everyone rescheduled I am so sorry for all of this! I hate having to mess yalls schedules up... it makes me so anxious! Please text me at 8432246776 if you havent heard from me by tomorrow nite... Sometimes the mobile scheduling app doesnt work out here in the boonies! Thank yall for everything... We do love yalls babies!!

When I was 16, I started working in Vet Clinics. It’s been a long career for me, and I have seen all sides of the cat business. I could attempt to sum it up by saying, it’s about the connection between you and the animal.

When I was in pre-veterinarian school at West Virginia University, I learned all about the anatomy of a feline. There are so many different breeds with interesting traits. There are many different diseases that our amazing pets deal with. There is just so much to the subject of cats, that one can easily devote their life to learning all about it. And I have. I really liked learning about these animals and how their bodies worked, how their minds worked.

After my education, I came back to Charleston, and for 6 years I was a vet-tech at Pet Vet. Then, in 1996 I joined Cats Only, where I focused on grooming just cats for the next 20 years!

Through all of that hands on experience, I learned to take full control over the process and make it an amazing experience for the cat. I also learned how to show and explain in simple terms what was going on, so that no owner was uneasy about grooming their loved one.
