Facts about the desert tortoise:
* If well cared for and healthy they can live to the 80 years old.
* They burrow in the ground during the cold months but it's not exactly considered hibernation.
* They are solitary until it's mating season and then they come together in a big rowdy group. Captive tortoises have to wear little license plates on the back of their shells to identify them because many times they escape from their yards during mating season and go back to the wrong homes, so all the houses swap tortoises to get the right one back.
* They can store water in their bladders for months so they don't die of dehydration in the desert during the driest part of the year.
* They also p*e when they are scared, so you should not bother or pick up a wild tortoise due to the offermentioned survival p*e they need.

My heart is absolutely broken.

If you have even a $1 you wouldn't miss, please consider using it for the medical care, feeding, and placement of the potentially over 100 cats that Survived the Happy Cat Sanctuary fire yesterday.

❤❤❤❤RIP Chris Arsenault❤❤❤❤
an absolute legend, hero and saint, who spent his last moments running into a burning building repeatedly, to save as many cats as he could until it took him too.

I'm sorry for the sad post, we can all return to our cute and silly cat videos shortly but this deserves your attention.

More than 4,000 donors have contributed to the cause, hoping to aid the surviving cats, many of whom require urgent medical care.

The biggest benefit of a catio is providing your cat with outdoor access and enrichment n while protecting them from nearby predatory wildlife and dogs.

6 out of 10 phone calls I get are for aggression, chasing and fighting between cats. Almost ALL of these are the result of introductions gone wrong. Don't trust everything you read on the internet! And never listen to the advice of "just put them in a room and let them work it out" unless you enjoy lengthy vet visits and a thorough redecorating of that room.

Contact a Cat Behaviorist before the issue snowballs. Successful reintroductions ARE possible, but the longer the cats practice their UFC moves on each other - the harder it is for them to work it out.

The " #1" cat in the below photo was rescued into a house with 2 existing resident cats and immediately began terrorizing them as if they were the intruders. Thanks to their dedicated cat-parents putting in the time and effort to reintroduce them slowly and using positive reinforcement, they can exist peacefully together.

Cats do not p*e on things out of spite.
Replace the word "spite" with "stress".

Pass it along. 🗣 👂
