Missing Cats ?A well-loved cat is part of the family and from time to time a cat will go missing, first of all when you have a cat or kitten you should keep them in for approximately a month old wife’s tail butter on paws this somehow works, they lick the butter off and walk around their home to realise this is where they belong, although cats choose their owners. Some of the reasons cats go missing, newborn, change in the house or new pet, cats generally do not like change, and they certainly do not like unease in the household they are very perceptive and can read emotions very well. If a cat feels very much at unease they will try and find another home that suits them and sometimes a cat will move in with a neighbour a few houses away and not come back. Cats should always be chipped and neutered this is for the health and the environment and in the case that a disaster happens you at least know, also it has been known for cats to get under a car and travel distances and be found many miles away so chipping an animal can result in your loving friend returning safe. It has been known for cats to travel miles and miles to get back to their owner and turn up years later, also getting a cat used to coming in the house in winter months and cooler nights of the year is very beneficial. Black cats are unlucky since they are more likely not to be seen by motorist also those people who do not like cats will not consider the well fare of the animal. It has been known at dusk for animals to go missing years ago an oriental take away in the Tamworth area was closed because of cats hanging on hooks and skins left to dry. There are also barbaric sports where cats are put to suffer so aiming at getting your cat in at night has many benefits.

Cuteness goes into overload with puppies, kittens or any small animal. It is a fact that dogs do love us and want to be with us – provided of course we are kind to them and care for them too. It is a two-way street. Just like them, we thrive on love. Having a dog does indeed help you with anxiety and stress. This is proven - this is why there are therapy dogs that go into particular places, like hospitals. Interacting with a dog – helps you to be calm and to heal. This means that love helps you heal. So, take your mind away from what distresses you, and focus on love and fun: just like a puppy. #mentalhealth #mentalwellbing #health #selfcare #giveyourselfabreak #healingjourney #aussieauthor #Adelaide #griefjourney #relax #funfact #anxietyrelief #pettherapy

Black Cats Are Beautiful - Consider Microchipping Them! We receive suggestions from concerned citizens about adopting out black kittens around the time of Halloween. An urban myth has circulated and it is very misleading because it is not true - that black cats are likely to be abused and/or exploited during the Halloween season due to being attributed to things like luck, spookiness, and superstition. Shelters used to refrain from adopting out their black cats, but nowadays they have shifted from that outdated standard and they welcome all October adoptions. There is no evidence to support that they are harmed more on Halloween than on any other day. The same dangers are there daily for kittens of every color. We are not saying that a holiday-related case of abuse has never happened, but those very few media reports do not warrant withholding black cats from their forever homes. More realistically, regardless of the color of your cat, it might be startled by trick-or-treaters. For all of the reasons why your cat might dart out the door, we recommend microchipping your pet (a quick process that does not harm your cat) so they can be reunited with you when someone else finds them! All About Animals in Flint and Warren Michigan offer this service for just $35. Let us know if you’d like additional information on microchipping – an agent would love to help you learn more.

National Service Dog Month is a month-long celebration honoring the hard work and life-changing impact service dogs make on people with disabilities every day.
