🎁☺️ 3 december: World Generosity Day. Did you know that when a cat brings you an animal he caught, it’s actually a very generous gift? As cats are pack animals, they often want to share their bounty with their family, and they want to teach their young how to hunt and eat. So, when your cat brings you an animal, be it alive or dead, it means they consider you a part of their family and they want to pass their hunting skills onto their family to improve chances of survival.

🥶❄️ December!
🥶❄️ December! Winter is coming and the nights are getting colder and colder. Consider recycling your polystyrene boxes as a shelter for stray cats. It's very simple: assemble your box so that it is waterproof, drill a hole in it for the cat to take refuge in, lay out a little straw or a blanket and place this shelter in a quiet place. Remember to put a bowl of water and some kibbles nearby.

Advice from Adeline Westerling, dog behaviorist and coach: the Autumn blues in our dogs.
Advice from Adeline Westerling, dog behaviorist and coach: the Autumn blues in our dogs. Some dogs, like us, can get what is known as the autumn blues. The change in weather, especially the drop in temperature combined with the arrival of humidity, and the much shorter days cause discomfort that needs to be addressed. They are very sensitive to the light they receive and tend to lack energy, change their mood and behavior. So provide as much physical and mental exercise as your dog's breed requires, regardless of the climate, by changing routes regularly. As the days get shorter and shorter, try to get as much exercise as possible before dusk so that everyone gets the most benefit. Don't hesitate to stimulate their primary sense: smell. Surprise them by organizing treat hunts or teaching them to track down their toys. These activities not only give them energy and intellectual stimulation, but also sharpen their sense of smell and increase their obedience, as well as prevent behavioral problems due to boredom.

How to avoid having the hair of your dogs everywhere?
Here we are in a period of moulting, how to avoid having the hair of your dogs everywhere?
The health of the coat is strongly influenced by diet. During this period, foods fortified with omega-3 and balanced with vitamins are favoured. For example, you can add salmon oil to your puppy’s ration.
Thanks to an adapted brush and regular brushing, you eliminate dead hair faster.
Too many washes can damage your dog’s skin and promote hair loss. Certainly if you use an unsuitable soap.
Limit stress situations that, like us, cause hair loss.

Here are some tips to make sure that your dog will have a great Halloween
Happy Halloween! Here are some tips to make sure that your dog will have a great Halloween: don’t give him candies, as chocolate is poisonous to a lot of animals, and tin foil and cellophane candy wrappers can be hazardous if swallowed. Be careful of lit pumpkins, as your dog may knock one over or get burned if he gets too close. If you dress up your dog, be sure he likes it and that it isn’t constricting, annoying or unsafe. Finally, except if he is very social, keep your dog in a separate room during trick-or-treat visiting hours, because too many strangers in costumes can be scary for him. Post a picture of you and your dog in your best Halloween costumes on Mopets.com
