Why Microchipping Your Cat is a Must – Even for Indoor Cats! 🐱

Microchipping is a simple, permanent way to identify your cat and boost the chances of being reunited if they ever get lost. Unlike collars and tags that can easily come off, a microchip stays with your cat for life.

👉 Here’s why it’s so important:

✅ High Recovery Success: Microchips are the most reliable way to identify a lost cat, greatly increasing the chances of them coming home.

✅ Permanent ID: Unlike a collar, a microchip can’t be removed or lost.
Easy Scanning: Vets and shelters can quickly scan for microchips to find your contact info.

✅ Update Anytime: Moving or changing your number? Update your details easily in the microchip database.

✅ Peace of Mind: Whether your cat is an indoor adventurer or an outdoor explorer, microchipping gives you extra peace of mind.

If you're a Cat&Dogsure Comprehensive Plan client, and your cat hasn't been microchipped, please check your policy and chat with us, as microchipping falls under your Pet Care Benefits! 👌

How Often Should You Bathe Your Dog? 🐾🧼

Bathing and grooming go hand in hand, but they serve different purposes. Grooming includes trimming nails, brushing fur, de-shedding, and cleaning ears. Every dog benefits from regular grooming, often weekly, to keep them clean and healthy!

🧼 Bathing Frequency:
The frequency of baths depends on your dog’s breed, coat type, and lifestyle. Over-bathing can cause dry skin, while too few baths may lead to odor and health issues. Some dogs might need weekly baths, while others only need a few per year.

🐕 Breed and Coat Type:
Different breeds have different needs. Hairless dogs need regular skin care, while long-haired breeds like Collies require frequent brushing to prevent tangles. Double-coated dogs, such as Labradors, often need more de-shedding than bathing. Always research your dog’s breed to understand its specific grooming needs.

🩺 Health Conditions:
If your pup has skin issues or other health conditions, consult your vet for a tailored bathing schedule. Medicated shampoos might be required, and bathing frequency may vary.

🍂 Seasonality:
Warm, wet months can lead to greasier coats and more frequent baths, especially with increased outdoor activity. In winter, dogs may need fewer baths but require moisturizing shampoos to prevent dry skin.

🐶 Age and Lifestyle:
Puppies and active dogs tend to get dirty quickly and need more frequent baths. Senior dogs, however, may need less frequent bathing but could benefit from grooming wipes or spot cleaning to stay fresh.

Remember, every dog is different, so find the right balance to keep your furry friend happy and healthy! 🐶🛁

❗ PLEASE make sure your pet is microchipped. It's a simple, essential step for responsible pet ownership, and ensures your pet has a permanent ID, increasing the chances of being reunited if they get lost.

Over the Festive Season we saw way too many pets that were found without their owners, and couldn't be identified due to no microchipping.

If you're a Cat&Dogsure Comprehensive Plan client, and your pup or cat hasn't been microchipped, please check your policy and chat with us, as microchipping falls under your Pet Care Benefits! 👌

Please make microchipping your pet one of your TOP new year resolutions.

Pet Cover Goes Back A LONG Way!

🤓 The history of pet insurance dates back to 1890 when Claes Virgin, founder of the Länsförsäkrings Alliance, issued the first-ever pet insurance policy, initially covering horses and livestock.

🕰 Over the years, pet insurance evolved, reaching key milestones:

1924: The first dog in Sweden received insurance coverage.

1947: Britain introduced its first pet insurance policy.

1982: In the U.S., Lassie, the famous TV dog, became the first insured pet through Veterinary Pet Insurance (VPI).

1989: Pet health insurance was launched in Canada by providers like Fetch and Petsure.

2007: The North American Pet Health Insurance Association (NAPHIA) was established to set industry standards and promote best practices.

And, in 2012, Cat&Dogsure Pet Health Insurance was established, making Cat&Dogsure one of SA's oldest pet insurers!

Holiday Cats Treats: Super Quick Tips 🐾

🎄 This holiday season, treat your cat to small portions of safe, festive foods!

🐟 Cooked turkey, chicken, or fish (with no skin, bones, or seasoning) can make a delicious treat.

🥕 Steamed veggies like green beans, carrots, or broccoli, and tiny bites of blueberries, apple, or banana are also great options - just keep portions small.

🚫 Keep your cat safe by avoiding processed meats, grapes, raisins, garlic, onions, chocolate, and anything with bones, seeds, or alcohol. These can be harmful, so keep them out of paw's reach!

🎁 Extra spoils can include a new toy, a sprinkle of catnip, or extra cuddle time will make their holiday extra special.

And: show them ALL the love to have a purr-fectly happy cat this Christmas! 🐾❤️

As always: talk to your vet before giving your pets ANY treats and snacks. Your vet knows best!

Why Do Cats Attack Christmas Trees? Is This Normal?

Yep, it’s normal! Your cat isn’t attacking the tree - they’re just thrilled about this climbable “playground” full of shiny “toys.”

Cats see Christmas trees as the ultimate playground. Certified Cat Behavior Consultants Marilyn Krieger and Lisa Stemcosky explain: it’s tall, climbable, and covered in shiny, wiggly things that look like prey. Who could resist? 🐱

How to Keep the Peace:
🎄 Use a barrier like an exercise pen or keep the tree in a room you can close off.
🎄 Place ornaments and lights out of paw’s reach.
🎄 Distract with toys and a tall cat tree for climbing.
🎄 Choose unbreakable, non-toxic decorations.

If all else fails, consider suspending your tree from the ceiling - dramatic but effective! Embrace the chaos, enjoy the laughs, and keep the broom handy. It’s all part of the holiday fun! 🧡💚

Plus, it's never a bad idea to make sure your Mischievous Elf is insured during these times of possible catastrophes ! 👉 https://catanddogsure.co.za

Holiday Foods Your Dog Should Never Eat! 🚫🐾

Some festive treats are a no-go for your pup! Here’s what to keep off their plate:

🍫 Chocolate, Coffee & Caffeine: Can cause vomiting, seizures, or worse. The darker the chocolate, the more dangerous!

🍬 Xylitol (in sugar-free gum & candy): Can lead to liver failure and dangerously low blood sugar.

🥜 Macadamia Nuts: Even a few can cause weakness, vomiting, and tremors.

🍇 Grapes & Raisins: Toxic to dogs and can cause kidney failure.

🧄 Garlic, Onions & Chives: Harmful to red blood cells, leading to anemia.

🍺 Alcohol: Just a little can cause serious issues like breathing trouble or coma.

🍞 Yeast Dough: Can cause painful gas or even life-threatening bloat.

👩‍⚕ If your dog accidentally ingested any of these snacks, call the vet immediately if there are signs of distress.

Keep your furry friend safe and stick to dog-friendly treats this holiday season! 🎄🐶✨

What’s the Deal with Catnip? 🐱🌿

Catnip (aka Nepeta cataria) is an herb from the mint family that can send your kitty into a playful frenzy - or a blissful nap! 😻

🧠 Why Do Cats Love It?
Catnip releases nepetalactone, an oil that mimics feline pheromones. This triggers behaviors like affection, playfulness, or pure relaxation.

🍼 Kittens & Catnip
Kittens under 6 months usually don’t react. Once they’re older, let the fun begin!

🍽️ Is It Safe to Eat?
Yep! Cats can munch on small amounts, but too much can upset their tummy.

🌱 Fresh vs. Dried
Fresh catnip is stronger than dried, so a little goes a long way!

Keep it fun and safe - catnip is a treat, not a feast! 🐾
