Did you know ❓
Cats have a specialized collarbone, called the "floating collarbone" or "free-floating clavicle" that allows them to fit through tight spaces and land gracefully on their feet when they fall? This unique adaptation, along with their flexible spine, helps cats twist their bodies in mid-air and often land on their feet, earning them the reputation of being incredibly agile and graceful creatures. 😻

The advice of the week from our behaviorist and canine coach ⬇️
During the first three months of its life, the puppy will learn to interact with its peers in the right way, but also to become familiar with different environments and different animal species (including humans, of all ages). Care must be taken to ensure that each contact is extremely positive.
After this age, learning related to socialization takes place much more slowly. Poorly socialized puppies can develop behavioral problems in adulthood. It is therefore essential to take advantage of this period to socialize your companions to the fullest before they are 3 months old.

How to be happy like a fish ?
Do you know that a goldfish lives on average between 8 and 10 years? It's true! But to ensure a long and happy life for your goldfish, here are some essential tips to know:
A spacious and comfortable home 🏡: Opt for an aquarium of at least 60 liters. It's like a luxury home for our aquatic friends! Make sure to have a continuously running filter and add natural plants to create a calming and natural environment.
Regular cleaning for crystal-clear water 💧: Don't forget to change about a third of the water each week to maintain optimal water quality. Bonus: use this water to clean your aquarium decorations to preserve the essential good bacteria for the balance of your ecosystem.
Balanced feeding 🍽️: Follow the recommendations for the amount of food. A well-fed fish is a happy fish! But be careful not to overfeed, as our finned friends also have their limits.
No overpopulation, please! 🚫🐠: Keep an eye on the number of fish in your aquarium. Overpopulation can lead to stress and health problems. And to welcome new family members, consider quarantine to prevent disease spread.
With these simple but effective tips, you can offer your goldfish a serene and fulfilling life. 🌟 Feel free to share your own tips and experiences!

🐴 Horses vs. flies 🪰: How to protect them this spring?
With the arrival of spring, flies often become an annoying problem for our equine friends. Not only can flies cause irritation and itching in horses, they can also transmit diseases and disrupt their peaceful behaviour. Fortunately, there are some steps you can take to help control flies and protect your horses' health.
🧹 Make sure you maintain a rigorous cleanliness in and around the stable. Remove organic debris such as fallen fruit from trees and droppings on a regular basis to reduce fly breeding sites. A clean environment will also help to discourage other pests.
🪰 Invest in fly control solutions tailored to your situation. Natural or chemical-based repellents can be applied to horses' skin to protect them from flies. Repellent sprays, ointments or creams can be used on sensitive areas such as the ears, nose and belly.
🪤 Alternatively, the use of fly traps can be an effective method of reducing the fly population in your stable. Traps can be strategically placed around the stable to attract and trap flies, significantly reducing their numbers.
🐦 Consider introducing natural fly predators into your environment, such as insectivorous birds like swallows. Certain plants such as citronella or lavender can also act as natural fly repellents.
By taking these preventative measures you can help maintain a comfortable and healthy environment for your horses during the spring season. 🐴❤

If you give this to your cat, you're making a big mistake ! 🙀
And this mistake is... giving them milk !
Most cats have difficulty digesting cow's milk, or rather its lactose and sugar, which can cause bloating and diarrhea. Water remains the only and best source of hydration for cats, all year long.
Note that store-bought "cat milk" should be considered a treat because it's high in calories, but it should never replace water.

🐦🪱 If you want to know HOW and WHY you should feed the birds this upcoming spring, we are here to help you⬇️
In autumn and winter, the birds in your garden find it extra difficult to find food: most insects crawl under the ground, there are no berries to be spotted and rain and snow make it hard to find seeds.
The days are also shorter, giving them less time to hunt for food, and they also need extra food to maintain their body temperature leveled.
And in autumn, migratory birds prepare for their long journey to warmer places. So, treat the birds in your garden to tasty birdseeds and balls, and pay particular attention to placing the feeding house at least a meter and a half from the ground, because of the cats. 😿
