When you own a dog, you have a ton of work on your hands. From brushing their fur to feeding them, you need to keep on top of all of their needs. That said, this article will teach you all about what it takes to keep your dog happy and healthy.
Avoid insisting that your dog socialize nicely with every other passing dog. Experts recommend that your dog be able to tolerate introductions through sniffing and eying with another animal, but say forcing the issue can create problems. Accept your dog's lead when meeting and greeting other animals and allow for natural interaction.
Keep on top of fleas. Not only can fleas cause infection in your dog, if one is swallowed, your pet can get tapeworms as well. Speak to your veterinarian about the best prevention method, but remember that this is not a one shot deal. You will have to continue your efforts over the life of your pet.
Don't be upset if your dog does not want to get dressed up. It's becoming more popular to dress your dog in dog clothes, but some dogs just don't like the feeling of having clothes on. If your dog does not relax after the clothing is on, you should remove the clothing to avoid your dog trying to remove it by itself.
Know your dog's behavior and body rhythms well, to keep him at his healthiest. Medical issues often present themselves in slight nuances early on and if you know your dog, you'll see them. Pay attention to input and output, sleep duration, energy levels and so forth to keep on top of important issues that affect his health.
Keep your dog at a healthy weight. Plenty of dogs are overweight, and just like humans, this can lead to health issues. People tend to overfeed their dogs, and many also feed them table scraps. A dog doesn't need as many calories as most people think; talk to your vet about how much you should feed him each day, and what food is most suitable. A vet will advise you based on his size, age and lifestyle.
Clean up after your dog when they go to the bathroom in public. Many dog owners let their dog do their business wherever they please whether its on a sidewalk, neighbor's lawn, etc. They can do their business in public, but you must take a bag with you to clean it up when they're done so that it doesn't cause an unsightly and smelly mess for someone else.
Brush your dog often, even if he's got short hair. It's good for his coat and skin and can alert you of possible issues like fleas, tics and eczema. The dog will also enjoy the attention and brushing him regularly will keep more of his fur from flying around the house and landing on your furniture and carpets.
To ensure that your dog is safe, you should try to make your home as dog-proof as possibly. This includes making sure that only safe play toys are within your dogs reach. If you have a problem with your dog getting into your kitchen trash or the things on your counter, you could consider getting a baby gate to prevent your pup from entering the kitchen.
If you have just one dog who spends lots of time alone, consider getting a buddy dog. Because dogs typically run in packs, they typically love being around other canines. Get one that is similar in energy level and temperament and your dog will be in heaven.
Don't forget about your dog when writing your will. Many pets end up being fought over or neglected completely because specific instructions were not left regarding their care. Include a clause that clearly directs your loved ones on what to do with your dog so that he's well taken care of.
Stimulate your dog mentally and physically with plenty of exercise. Find ways for your dog to help you each day, such as training it to fetch the morning paper. Your dog will feel useful and like a contributing piece of the family, during the process of sharpening his mental capacity.
If you have tried everything to get your dog to stop digging your garden to no avail, head to your kitchen. Mix up a batch of cayenne pepper (five tablespoons), hot sauce (also five tablespoons) and a quart of water in a spray bottle and spray it where he digs. It should discourage him quickly.
Make sure that you buy an appropriate sized collar for your dog in order to ensure its health and safety. If the collar is too lose, it may become snagged on something. If the collar is too tight, it may restrict the dog's breathing ability. Allow for a two finger space between the dog and the collar.
Consider getting your dog from a shelter. Many of the dogs that are brought there are well behaved, yet the owners could not handle the responsibility that came with raising them. For the best results, visit the shelter a few times so that you can find the dog that is right for you and your lifestyle.
Consider puppy training classes for your young pet. Puppies are eager to learn, and a class is a wonderful atmosphere to let them do so in. Classes are also often cheaper than individual lessons. This will teach your pup essential behavioral skills and allow the two of you bonding time too.
Always clean up after your pet. Failure to do this can result in a fine in the worst case. Or, it can result in your neighbors cowering at the sight of you and your dog. Simply carry around a plastic bag and some tissue to pick up after him, and everyone will be happy!
Do not introduce your dog to strangers right away. Your new pup needs some time to get used to its new environment and owners. Make sure your dog spends plenty of quality time with all the members of your household and introduce strangers slowly once you feel your dog is more comfortable.

A few weeks ago mummy got some floatable dog toys from Freecycle but we haven't had the weather to try them out at the beach! Today I can see the sunshine so, armed with my new rubber balls we are going to head for the beach!
I am sooooooooooooooo excited. I have been having lots of walks round the village which I know mummy has shared with you but the weather has meant the walks are short.......and I like longer spells out to burn off my energy!
In 2003 I was rescued from a nasty man who had decided to try and make some money out of breeding German Shepherds. He wasn't a nice man and kept us in a yard. We had never met any humans in the first 5 months of our lives. Fortunately for us we were resued by the German Shepherd Rescue People who took us back to their big kennels in Newcastle. Mummy and Daddy said Goodbye to Inca, a beautiful German Shepherd who had gone to Doggie Heaven. They came to see me and my sister. My sister had a new home and I went home to a lovely village on the North York Moors. I still have problems, I am very nervous but have made progress so Mummy says.
I go for wals with mummy, the beach is my favourite as I love swimming. My best friend was Max, who sadly died Christmas 2006. Shortly after Elsie, another German Shepherd moved in!
I share my house with Mummy, Daddy, Elsie, Ella the cat and Jo the goose.

Packaging is one of the most important things for pet-industry manufacturers. Pet owners want to know that the product they are buying is sealed properly so their pet food or treats are as fresh as possible. No one wants to buy a new 50 lb. bag of pet food to find that it has lost its freshness and nutrients. Dogs and cats are less likely to eat food that has lost its flavor due to poor packaging, and when pets donÛªt eat their food, owners will look to other brands to keep their beloved animals happy and well-fed.

|Country of origin||France|
The Beagle Harrier appears to be either a larger Beagle or a smaller Harrier. It is a medium sized dog, between 45 and 50 centimeters (18 to 20 inches) tall at the withers, and it weighs between 19 and 21 kilograms (42 to 46 pounds).Its coat is usually tricolor, featuring the colors fawn, black, tan, or white. Grey coated (tricolor) Beagle Harriers may also be found due to there being grey coated Harriers. The Beagle-Harrier's body is usually muscular and its coat smooth and thick.,
The Beagle Harrier is generally good with children and other pets. They are loyal, have lots of determination and are calm and relaxed when at home, making them a good family pet. They are a hunting breed and so require a lot of exercise and space.
Beagle Harriers were bred in France in the 19th century by Baron Gerard. They were bred to hunt hare or deer in packs. The Beagle Harrier could be a mixture of the two breeds, the Beagle and the Harrier, or the midpoint in breeding between the two breeds. It was recognized by the FCI in 1974.
The Beagle Harrier can now be quite rarely found in France and are even more rare in other countries.

Throughout human history, animals of all kinds have been tamed, bred, and kept for a variety of purposes: work, pleasure, fur, and even sustenance.
While the bond between humans and domestic animals is nothing new, their place in our homes and hearts has evolved over the centuries.
Ancient Egyptians honored both cats and dogs as gods and goddesses, revering them for their hunting abilities. These pets were well respected; many were mummified just as humans in death, while their owners would shave their own eyebrows as a symbol of grief.
Cats have been a symbol of good luck in Japan since the Edo Period. According to legend, the Maneki-neko (beckoning cat) saved a man’s life by “waving” at him with his paw, drawing the man away from a spot that was subsequently struck by lightning.
Romans used dogs as protectors, hunters and guardians. Toy dogs may have been kept to help control rats during The Black Plague, while the “Italian Greyhound” breed kept their masters warm at night under the covers.
Sleeping with a pet remains, for many, a source of comfort and relaxation—even if they don’t share your bed.
In a recent Mayo Clinic sleep study, the vast majority of survey respondents reported that they “perceived their pets as unobtrusive or even beneficial to sleep.”
At The Marmara Park Avenue, we realize that lodging away from home with your furry family member offers our guests much more than just a restful night’s sleep.
Pets: They’re Good For Your Health
Spending time with a pet is possibly one of the best ways to relieve stress. At the end of a long day or taxing experience, studies show that even brief encounters with a four-legged companion can reduce the stress hormone cortisol, lower your heart rate and blood pressure, and even combat depression and anxiety.
After a high-pressure business meeting, a busy day sight-seeing, or a night out on the town, we know how important it is for many of our guests to come home to the unconditional love and warm companionship of their pets.
Pets can help us live longer too. A recent study shows that dog owners are less likely to smoke or be overweight. They add structure and purpose to our lives and can even help us be more active and physically fit.
In a city like New York, there are many dog-friendly spaces that are fun for both dogs and owners. Just a few blocks south of The Marmara Park Avenue is Madison Square Park. This beautiful slice of nature is a wonderful place for a relaxing stroll with Fido, and even features a dog run and socializing doggie area.
New York City Loves Pets
Speaking of socializing, pets bring people together; they are great ice-breakers and conversation-starters.
Somehow, people with pets are more approachable. In a city as big as New York, a pet can help you meet people and make you feel like a part of the community.
Open to all
For many of our guests, staying with their pets is a necessity, due to personal situations or the need for extended stays.
Some of our guests may not have anyone to look after their pet while they are traveling on business or leisure. Or perhaps, they don’t feel comfortable leaving them at a kennel.
There’s no need to be separated from your four-legged friend at The Marmara Park Avenue. They are welcomed to share one of our elegant rooms or suites with you. Both you and your pet can enjoy New York City with all the comforts of home.
We also have guests that are on extended stays for professional reasons or are in between permanent residences.
Often, entire families come to stay with us in one of our extended stay accommodations. Can you imagine having to be separated from your family pet for a prolonged period of time? We can’t either, and that’s why we are happy to welcome all guests (even those with fur and tails!)
Some of our guests require the assistance of a trained animal. It is our pleasure in those circumstances to make every arrangement to accommodate both them and their trusted companion.
Of course, many of the guests that bring their domestic animals do so simply because they just can’t bear to be apart from them.
No Pet Left Behind
Whatever the reason, rest assured knowing that your pets are as welcome at The Marmara Park Avenue as you are.
We pride ourselves on seeing to every detail that will make you feel at home during your stay. Knowing how important pets are to some of our patrons, we offer a pet-friendly oasis as part of our unique luxury experience.
Your comfort and ease are our top priority, so treating all of our guests like royalty is our business.
We look forward to pampering both you and your pet at The Marmara Park Avenue.

This was one of three German Sheppards and a Labrador mix that were at the house we were staying at. This dog, named Abe, is a big baby, in more ways than one. He is considered to be too big for the bred, but he would demanded the most attention. So, since I was sleeping on the couch at night and he roaming around the house, I got a wet nose in the face or a bark in my ear at least once each night. I guess he was seeing if I was awake or not, which I was after that happened. During the day, he just followed me around.

Take Responsibility Dog Owners! November 6, 2008Posted by Attorney Jonathan Groth in Dog Attack Information.
Tags: Dog Attack Information, Wisconsin Dog Bite Attorney, Wisconsin Dog Bite Law, Wisconsin Dog Bites
The Manitowoc Herald Times Reporter noted a frustrating story about a dog bite victim. A Keil woman was attacked by a dog. It appears that, at first, she didn’t realize that the dog broke her skin. The dog’s owners left the scene and didn’t give any identifiable information. Soon thereafter the victim noticed that the dog broke her skin. She went to the hospital and was told that because no one knew whether the dogs were up on all of their shots she would have to undergo rabies vaccination shots.
This is just another example of a victim of a dog bite having to undergo potentially unnecessary medical care. The victim may have to worry about having rabies, the pain of the shots not to mention the time away from work and her family. There isn’t an update so I don’t know whether they ever found the dog owners.
Wouldn’t it just be easier if the dog owner stuck around and gave the victim her information? No matter how small the bite seems at first why not just exchange information? If the dogs don’t have rabies then all this would not have to happen.


Eileen Watkins is a former newspaper reporter turned mystery writer. Her latest series is the Cat Groomer Mysteries. Learn more about her and her books at her website.
Cats and mysteries go together like tea and sympathy…or arsenic and old lace. Maybe that’s why cozies featuring felines have practically become a sub-genre these days.
When I set out to write the Cat Groomer Mystery series, I felt I needed a fresh approach. The basic premise helped, because I didn’t know of many cozy sleuths who worked with cats full-time for a living, as mine does. Cassie McGlone owns and operates Cassie’s Comfy Cats, a grooming and boarding establishment in the small town of Chadwick, N.J. Because this takes so much of her time and attention, I decided that every murder she investigates will involve felines in some way.
How could cuddly kitties possibly inspire so much mayhem? First, animals can provoke strong feelings in people, pro and con. Second, in today’s society especially, we love our pets like family members and may go to great lengths to protect them. Third, some show or breeding animals are valuable enough to be worth stealing, and any such theft can also carry the risk of violence. Fourth, cats themselves are mysterious and unpredictable, so they can conceal or reveal our secrets in surprising ways.
To keep my books realistic, I did preliminary interviews with groomers and visited their shops. I learned that cats require different grooming techniques than dogs, with special training involved. In fact, many “pet” groomers will not handle cats at all, considering them too temperamental! So there definitely would be a market for Cassie’s skills, but would it be enough to provide her with a decent living? The most successful cat groomer I talked to also ran a small boarding business, so I decided Cassie would, too. Again, I found that this filled a real need. Cats often don’t do well in kennels that also house dogs, because the canine smells and barking can make them too agitated.
Soon I saw that I could offer my readers something extra through my stories— little-known facts I’d learned about the nature and care of cats—along with an exciting whodunit.
In my first book, The Persian Always Meows Twice, I hoped to get out the message that if you don’t make provisions for your pets after your death, they could end up going to an animal shelter, or worse.
The Bengal Identity, the second and most recent book in the series, let me delve into the breeding of hybrid cats with “wild” origins, very popular today. I discovered that it can have a dark underbelly, though, appalling to any true animal lover.
Fall of 2018 will see the publication of Feral Attraction, which deals with the all-too-common issue of a feral cat colony causing problems for a residential community.
These situations can pit neighbor against neighbor…and in my book, the result is murder.
As you can see, the fur really flies in my feline-friendly series. Hope you’ll check it out!
The Bengal Identity
Book 2, A Cat Groomer Mystery
Everyone knows a leopard can’t change its spots, but can a thief hide the spots on a cat-napped Bengal? Groomer Cassie McGlone is about to find out…
With no ID for his pet, an agitated young man shows up at Cassie’s Comfy Cats claiming his house has burned down and he needs to board his big, brown cat, Ayesha. But after a bath washes dye out of the cat’s coat to reveal beautiful spots, Cassie suspects the exotic-looking feline may be a valuable Bengal show cat, possibly stolen. At the same time, there are rumored sightings of a vicious “wild cat” in the hills of Chadwick, New Jersey. Could there be a connection?
When Ayesha’s alleged owner turns up dead, it looks like whoever wants the lively Bengal isn’t pussyfooting around. Working with the police, Cassie and her assistant need to be careful not to reveal the purloined purebred’s whereabouts, while they discreetly make inquiries to cat breeders to find her real owner. But after a break-in attempt rattles Cassie’s cage, it’s clear someone let the cat out of the bag. And when a second body is found, it up to her to spot the killer, who may be grooming her to be the next victim.

Vice President Mike Pence celebrated Father’s Day by welcoming two new furry friends to his family.
Pence’s wife, second lady Karen Pence, announced Sunday that the family got two new pets while on a weekend trip to their home state of Indiana: a dog named Harley and a cat named Hazel.
We welcomed a new kitten to our family during our trip back home to Indiana this weekend!Introducing: Hazel! pic.twitter.com/TWk6WeUQi6— Karen Pence (@SecondLady) June 18, 2017
And… for Father's Day, we surprised @VP with an Indiana puppy! Introducing: Harley! pic.twitter.com/ZlvNasOw9b— Karen Pence (@SecondLady) June 18, 2017
Pence’s press secretary on Monday tweeted a picture of the vice president disembarking from Air Force Two, carrying the “Second Dog.”
New Second Dog – Harley – got his first ride on Air Force Two with @VP. Next exploring the grounds & house at Vice President's Residence. pic.twitter.com/opmERCsii2— Marc Lotter (@VPPressSec) June 19, 2017
The happy additions to the family follow some tragic news: The family’s cat named Oreo died earlier this month. The family’s dog named Maverick died in October.
President Donald Trump is the first president in over 100 years to not have a dog, and only one of a handful presidents in history to not have pets in the White House.
Fortunately for fans of furry friends, the Pence family has plenty of pets. Harley and Hazel join a cat named Pickle and a rabbit named Marlon Bundo.
Bundo has a strong social media presence, with Twitter and Instagram accounts run by Pence’s daughter Charlotte. — This feed and its contents are the property of The Huffington Post, and use is subject to our terms. It may be used for personal consumption, but may not be distributed on a website.


The pet industry has been experiencing remarkable growth worldwide, with pet owners increasingly willing to spend money on their pets' health and well-being. In an engaging video, Oliver Wyman's Hunter Williams has a conversation with Imke Wouters, an Oliver Wyman Partner based in China, and Lippincott's Melissa Tischler who gives insight from a US perspective.
The video delves into the exciting and ever-changing trends in the pet industry, exploring the latest developments in premium pet food, the emergence of innovative services that go beyond traditional daycare and grooming, and pet fashion. The experts share their insights on what's driving the industry's growth and what the future holds for this rapidly expanding sector.
Here are three key insights from the discussion:
The importance of pet nutrition
One emerging trend is the increasing focus on pet nutrition. Many pet owners are now looking for high quality, natural, and organic foods for their pets, and are willing to pay a premium for these products. This trend is driven by the growing awareness of the importance of nutrition in maintaining pet health and by the desire to provide pets with the same level of care and attention that is given to human family members.
Pet care beyond the basics
There's a growing popularity in pet services, such as daycare. As more people choose to adopt, they are looking for convenient and reliable ways to take care of their pets when they are away from home. Pet service providers are responding to this demand by offering a wide range of services, from basic grooming to luxury pet hotels and resorts.
The latest pet fashion styles
In recent years, pet fashion has become increasingly popular, especially in China, says Imke Wouters. From decked-out collars and leashes to dresses and shoes, there seems to be no limit to the ways pet owners can express their love for their furry friends through fashion. Some believe it is a reflection of the increasing humanization of pets, as they are seen more and more as family members rather than just animals.
Overall, the pet industry is growing and evolving at a rapid rate, driven by the changing attitudes and preferences of pet owners. As more people continue to adopt pets and prioritize their care and well-being, we can expect to see even more innovation and growth in the industry in the years to come.


85% of dogs and 70% of cats over the age of three suffer some form of dental disease, so chances are your pet could use a dental exam. Even if your pet doesn’t have stained teeth, bacteria can still be present below the gum line, so it’s important to have your pet’s oral cavity examined by a professional. In fact, if your pet has bad breath, they have a form of dental disease.

There is no set answer to this question. Like all living creatures water is essential to maintain vital bodily functions in cats. Cats can suffer from dehydration resulting in kidney problems if they do not drink enough water. An adequate intake of water is necessary to flush out toxins from the kidneys. Cats can also suffer from health problems if they drink too much water, and may develop a condition called polydipsia. In general cats usually consume about a cup of water a day. This will increase if they live on a diet of dried food. If your cat significantly increases the amount of water it drinks you should consult a vet for further investigations especially if the cat has also lost weight recently. Cats can develop diabetes and kidney problems; both of these conditions can be dangerous if left untreated but they can be controlled with medication.
Water consumption is linked to diet. In the wild the cat would eat prey containing 70% water content. Dried cat food contains only 10% water whilst tinned or pouched food contains around 80% water. It is therefore obvious that a cat fed on a diet of dried food will need to consume more water than one fed on tinned food. To check the levels of hydration pinch a small amount of skin on the back of your cat’s neck. If it springs back easily your cat is adequately hydrated. This is similar to testing your own hydration level by squeezing the skin on the back of your hand.
It is commonly thought that cats hate water but this is not true. They do not like to be immersed in water but most are fascinated by running water and they would prefer to drink running water rather than drink from a bowl. Many cats like to play with water, splashing it with their paws. It is thought they prefer running water as this most closely simulates how they would drink in the wild from running streams, which they would perceive as being safer than stagnant water.
Cats have very sensitive paw pads which they use to test the temperature of running water. Provide your cat with fresh water several times a day if you can. Also try to locate the water away from the food source as research shows that cats prefer to drink water away from their food source. It is a good idea to invest in a drinking fountain such as the Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain. A pet fountain is very useful for owners who are out of the house for long periods. Pet fountains are available in a variety of sizes and can hold up to 5 litres of constantly running water which is typically kept clean and fresh by a charcoal filter.
Cats hate to share a water bowl with another animal but any number of cats are happy to share one drinking fountain. A pet fountain is of course not for cats, it is equally beneficial for dogs, who also benefit from the experience and the improvement over the quality of water left in a normal bowl.
You can purchase both the Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain and the Drinkwell mini Fountain by visiting our web site at http://www.petcontrol.co.uk and selecting the Drinkwell Fountain category.

The New Year is just round the corner, and it is the perfect time to plan a healthy diet plan for your lovable pets that can boost their longevity, energy levels and overall well-being. Not every food that benefits humans, is suitable for your furry friend, so one must exercise caution while selecting their meals and snacks. When organising a New Year’s get-togethers with friends, opt for nutritious and flavourful treats for your pets instead of oily and fatty foods. Prioritise their well-being to ensure their health remains robust. Treats that enhance their bone health, oral health, support hydration and energy levels are recommended by experts. (Also read | 12 New Year’s resolutions for sustainable living)
“As we usher in the new year, it becomes increasingly pertinent to align our pets’ lifestyles with our own health-focused aspirations. Beyond the basics of nutritious pet food, regular exercise, and veterinary care, the well-being of our pets is deeply influenced by the daily treats we choose, especially those offering nutritional benefits,” says Salil Murthy, Managing Director, Mars Petcare India.
Here are 5 healthy New Year treats that your pets are sure to enjoy.
1. Oral care treats
A staggering 80 per cent of dogs over three years old experience gum disease. Dog chews are very effective in combating tartar build-up in dogs’ teeth, says Murthy.
2. Foods to boost bone health
Nutrients like Vitamin C, Vitamin K and magnesium play an important role in strengthening your dog’s bones and overall well-being. Apart from the bone health treats that are available in the market, one can also offer them natural options like yoghurt, cheese, chicken and fish, vegetables etc.
3. Wet cat food
“In winter season, like everyone else, cats too need some extra nourishment and care. Canned or wet foods with right nutrient mix aid in digestion and provide energy. Wet cat foods are usually a mix of fish, chicken, and nutritious vegetables and offer a complete and balanced diet. This palatable wet cat food enriches mealtime experiences,” says Murthy.
Cruciferous vegetables are full of benefits and must be included in your pup’s diet. You can cut the vegetable in small pieces and offer them as a treat or along with their usual meals. While raw broccoli works just as fine, it can be roasted or steamed too.
Who doesn’t like these naturally sweet treats. Rich in Vitamin-C, strawberries can enhance your pet’s immunity, but considering they are high in sugar, watch out for the portions.

A cat can pick up fleas while walking around a summer cottage or yard, when visiting a clinic, and even at an exhibition. Only pets are not immune from infection, because insects can get into an apartment on clothes or shoes.
Why are fleas dangerous?
Bloodsuckers not only cause cats to itch, but can also cause serious health problems. Often, fleas are carriers of various diseases, including rickettsiosis, panleukopenia, mycoplasmosis and others.
A reaction to bites, or rather, to flea saliva, maybe become and flea allergic dermatitis. Even one bite is sometimes enough for a cat to itch for up to two weeks.
An unpleasant bonus to fleas can be tapeworms and other helminths. A cat becomes infected when it accidentally swallows an insect that contains parasite larvae. And then, already in the intestines of the animal, the worms continue their development.
Fleas are especially dangerous for kittens and weakened pets. Because of the bloodsuckers, they can develop anemia, which can even end in death.
How to understand that a cat has fleas
Due to fleas, the pet can become restless, constantly chewing or scratching certain places on the body. Other symptoms include frequent head shaking, itchy ears, and excessive licking. Well, when there are too many parasites, you can easily notice them by simply parting the coat.
When the first symptoms appear, lay the cat on its back. Carefully inspect the armpits and groin, these places are especially fond of fleas. Redness and bumpiness should alert you. In some areas, even local hair loss is possible due to constant combing.
Did the initial examination fail? Do not rush to conclusions. Prepare a bowl of soapy water and a fine-toothed flea comb. Run the comb through the fur on the back and legs. Try to keep the distance to the skin to a minimum, because the parasites feed on it. If bloodsuckers are found, dip the comb in soapy water.
Don’t worry if you don’t have a special comb. A sheet of white paper or a paper towel will come to the rescue. Gently lay it close to the cat when she combs her hair. The waste products of fleas will be clearly visible against a light background. To be sure, sprinkle the blackheads with water. If the color changes to red-brown, you are seeing flea feces that have digested blood in them.
It is possible to carry out a check without the participation of a pet. Take a close look at the places your cat loves: her bedding, window sills, and more. There, too, you can find black dots that turn red under the influence of water, and sometimes you can find the parasites themselves. For complete confidence, you can even put on white socks and walk along the cat’s favorite routes in the apartment, and then carefully look for those same black dots on the foot.
If there are no signs of fleas, but the animal continues to be nervous and itchy, go to the vet. The doctor will help determine the cause of this behavior and tell you what to do.
When you can and cannot treat cats for fleas
If the fleas are already infested, do not delay. With older animals, it is better to act immediately. And kittens can be treated for fleas with age-appropriate drugs when they are 8-10 weeks old. Although the recommendations differ for different means.
Be especially careful around sick and elderly animals. For them, it is better to choose special products with a milder effect that will not harm a weakened body. Collars, drops, sprays and powder should not be used if the animal has open wounds on the body. Accuracy is also needed if the pet suffers from any allergic manifestations. At the slightest symptom of an allergy, consult a doctor immediately.
Lactating cats need special attention. For them, softer means are also preferred. Also, they will not be suitable for drugs that kittens can come into contact with, such as collars. In this case, even the minimum dose of insect repellent can do much harm.
If you have any doubts about the choice of the drug or its safety for the animal, be sure to consult the clinic.
What are the remedies for fleas
There are many ways to get rid of bloodsuckers.
This option is perhaps one of the most popular. Drops from fleas of different brands differ in terms of validity, so treatment will be needed at different intervals. In addition, there are variations in composition. Such funds are made on the basis of natural components or synthesized substances.
Please note that drops for dogs will not work here. They may contain permethrin, which is deadly to cats.
What to buy
In fact, this is a plastic strap treated with special insecticidal agents. In addition to fleas, such collars can also protect against other parasites. Detailed information about the spectrum of effectiveness is usually in the instructions. The validity period is from one to several months, depending on the manufacturer.
This strap is a good option if you have one pet. If there are several cats in the house, they can gnaw on each other’s collars, so the risk of poisoning is quite high. Active animals that walk a lot are also at risk: they can catch on something with a strap and hang on it. So, if you still want to use this particular method, choose a collar with a break line: this will save your pet from trouble.
A more expensive and advanced option is ultrasonic flea collars. They are safe for people and animals, but they have a depressing effect on bloodsuckers. These devices run on miniature batteries.
What to buy
Powder (powder) is effective only against adult bloodsuckers. It is applied to the skin and hair of animals, and then combed out.
What to buy
To destroy parasites, you need synthetic sprays with special insecticides in the composition. Like drops, flea sprays are best taken specifically for cats. These products for dogs may contain permethrin, which is dangerous for cats, so carefully study the composition.
What to buy
The active substances from the tablets are absorbed into the blood. Therefore, when a flea bites an animal, it dies. The validity period is usually about three months, after which the treatment must be repeated.
What to buy
Such funds will help to destroy bloodsuckers and remove traces of vital activity of parasites from the body and wool. Additionally, the composition often includes substances that soothe irritated skin and simplify combing the coat.
It is better to use shampoos if your pet calmly tolerates water procedures. Otherwise, processing can become a real problem.
What to buy
Tar soap or laundry soap is another option for dealing with bloodsuckers. This method will not help to completely solve the problem with a single application. So get ready to bathe the animal several times with an interval of 4-5 days.
The disadvantage of this method is that the soap will not completely destroy the fleas. Therefore, it is recommended to use, for example, a special collar with it, which will scare away insects. And regular treatment with soap does not have the best effect on the skin and coat of the animal.
What to buy
What to consider when treating fleas
In order not to harm your pet, you need to follow a few simple recommendations:
- Use only products intended for cats.
- Use only one type of medication at a time, do not combine different types of drops or other medications.
- Choose options that are suitable for the animal by age and weight.
- Strictly follow the instructions that come with the drug. Don’t overdo it.
- Spraying should only be done outdoors.
- Take precautions and wash your hands after treatment.
How to remove fleas from a cat with drops
Secure the animal in your lap or on a suitable surface. Gently part the hair at the withers. If the pet is long-haired, use a comb.
Apply drops to skin but do not rub. Wait a few minutes until the product is completely absorbed. Do not drip on other places, especially those where the animal can easily reach.
Do not bathe your cat for several days before and after treatment.
How to remove fleas from a cat with a collar
Remove the strap from the package and gently stretch to activate the active ingredient.
Put on the neck of the animal and cut off the free edge with scissors. Do not overtighten: leave a gap of one or two fingers between the collar and the neck. Loosening to the extent that the cat could pull off the accessory is also not worth it.
How to remove fleas from a cat with powder
Apply the powder to the coat and gently rub into the skin, moving against the growth of the hair. Make sure that the product does not get into the eyes and mouth of the pet.
After 5-10 minutes, comb the animal with a fine-toothed comb.
How to remove fleas from a cat with a spray
Lifting the coat against growth, spray the product from a distance of 15-20 cm. Avoid areas near the eyes and mouth.
Wait until the product dries. To prevent the cat from licking itself at this time, you can use a special collar.
Brush out the animal. Do not bathe for 3-4 days before and after treatment.
How to remove fleas from a cat with pills
Give the animal the correct dose of the product with or without food.
How to get rid of fleas in a cat with shampoo
Wet the animal’s fur with warm water. Apply shampoo, lather thoroughly and spread over the body. Pay special attention to flea areas, and avoid areas around the eyes, ears, and mouth.
Let the drug work for a few minutes. And then rinse thoroughly so that no traces remain on the coat.
At the end of the procedure, comb your pet.
How to remove fleas from a cat with soap
Wet the animal’s fur with warm water. Lather well, especially in flea areas. Avoid areas near the mouth, eyes and ears.
Wrap the pet in a bag so that only the head remains open. Wait about 20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Brush out the animal’s fur.
What to look for after flea treatment
Means that kill fleas can be dangerous for cats too. Therefore, in the first few days and especially hours after treatment, you should carefully monitor your pet.
Animals may develop allergies due to the use of pesticides. It usually manifests itself in the form of redness, itching and irritation. In some cases, hair loss, nasal congestion, redness of the eyes and lacrimation are possible. If your pet has these symptoms, it is best to contact the clinic and use a different remedy next time.
Another danger is poisoning. Symptoms include lethargy, thirst, refusal to eat, profuse salivation, dilated pupils, diarrhea, convulsions, numbness in the paws, and disorientation. With such signs, it is better not to hesitate to visit a doctor.
Do not throw away the packaging of the product you are using. If problems arise, information about the active substances will be useful to the veterinarian.
Collars have their own nuances. Be prepared that not all pets will appreciate the accessory. Some cats will try to remove the collar by all means, and if you tighten it too much, there is a risk of strangulation. Another possible reaction is that the animal will walk on bent legs, almost clinging to the floor. This effect occurs due to the fact that it seems to the cat that she is being held by the withers. Don’t worry, it will all go away in a few days.
How to treat a room for fleas
Not all eggs laid by fleas remain on the skin and in the coat. They fall on the floor, beds and rugs. That is why it is not enough just to treat the animal from fleas. It is important to free from parasites and the room in which cats live. It is better to solve the problem in a complex way.
For example, a flea spray for animal habitats is suitable for surface treatment. It must be applied to the couch and other favorite places of rest, as well as to the cracks in the floor, rugs and baseboards. After processing, do not forget to vacuum.
Flea shampoos can be used to wash rugs and beds. A solution of laundry or tar soap is useful for washing floors.
Wash your bedding and blankets as well. And be sure to do regular cleaning with a vacuum cleaner.
How to protect a cat from fleas
Even if you have defeated the bloodsuckers, there is no guarantee that they will not appear again. Treatment is especially important for animals that spend a lot of time outdoors, for example, in the summer in the country. Although absolutely domestic cats that do not leave the apartment, prevention will not hurt.
Adult and healthy animals, as well as kittens from 3 months old, should be regularly treated for bloodsuckers as a preventive measure. As for those who are younger and sick, it is better to consult a doctor. Processing intervals depend on the selected tool.
For prevention, you can use different options:
- Flea straps. Choose repellent collars with essential oils. They are usually labeled accordingly. Such funds scare away bloodsuckers, but do not destroy them.
- Flea sprays. Use natural products based on essential oils. Like collars, they do not kill parasites, but only repel them.
- Flea shampoos. Bath products with essential oils and plant extracts will also help protect your pet from parasites.

I asked 4 Paws to take my dogs out for a morning of fun at the Bark Park. Both dogs were quite excited to go to the Bark Park. As the owner of 4 Paws came over to greet me, she was extremely helpful and took the dogs and helped me get them into the park safely. She allowed the dogs to get familiar with her. My American Eskimo can be quite timid around new people, but within 30 minutes was asking for her fair share of attention. My Sheltie is an attention hound anyway, but quickly had found a new BFF in Shellie! As the Sheltie got tired, she started fussing for attention and received a very adequate massage which she thoroughly enjoyed. I found 4 Paws to be very familiar with canine behavior and very responsive to my dogs’ needs. She came prepared with anything that we might have forgotten or run out of. It was evident that she is very capable and enjoys working with dogs and other pets!
My loyal dog and I recently moved to Colorado from California for a job opportunity. I have never needed a pet sitter in the past as I have always left my pooch with family or friends. However,
since I didn't have any family or close friends here in CO yet, I was desperately looking at pet care alternatives for a week vacation I was planning. I have never boarded my 9-year-old Golden
Retriever because he can get very anxious if he is away from me (or our home, filled with my scent) too long, and I couldn't bear the idea of him being in misery while I was in paradise on the
I found Shellie with 4 Paws Pet Sitter through petsit.com. She is a member of Pet Sitters International, insured, bonded--and most importantly--made instant friends with my Golden Retriever. It was the perfect solution! My boy was able to stay in his familiar environment and still receive the care, love, and attention he needed in my absence. Shellie met me and my dog at an initial consult and was professional, kind, and obviously adoring of animals. She provided a daily activity log during her visits and took some photos of my dog out on walks.
I was incredibly excited to see my boy when I returned from my trip. He met me at the door like I was only gone for the work day. It gave me huge relief to know that he was not filled with anxiety during my time away. Thank you so much Shellie! I will definitely be in touch with you again for my next vacation or weekend away!
We have been very pleased with the quality care Shellie has given to Alexis, our Min Pin. We have always been particular on who cares for Alexis, and have never kenneled our baby. Now that she is older, and has special medical needs, we are reassured in knowing that, when we travel, our Alexis is in very capable hands.
Shellie has been a lifesaver this year for me! I work long hours & have 2 very active Doberman Pinschers. Having her come over a couple of days a week has been such a help to me. She's accommodating with all my schedule changes & requests, regardless of how odd they may be (turning music on, blocking dogs off, leaving them inside vs outside, walking them together or separate). She is great about letting me know if there are any issues (accidents in the house, anything destroyed, etc.) She would gladly leave my daily updates if I asked her to & is responsive to my texts when I ask how they were doing. My neighbors have also told me just how great she is with walking. Duke is very high energy, ornery, & stubborn & she really seems to be very patient with him which I greatly appreciate as it is not always easy to do. My dogs seem to love her too, as I can tell because they no longer bark at the door when she comes. My dogs are members of my family & I'm so happy I found someone trustworthy & caring to walk them while I'm at work.
Professional, understanding of busy / changing schedules, dependable, and most of all, our dog absolutely loves her! On a time that we ended up being home when Shellie was scheduled to come by for
a walk, we saw how our dog reacted when she came in, and then cried at the door when she left!
Clearly great with animals. And a service you can trust whether you are going out of town, or just don't want your animal to be alone all day during those times there will not be anyone at the house during the day.
I had the pleasure of meeting Shellie, owner of 4 Paws prior to scheduling an outing with my 2 miniature schnauzer's. Shellie was very patient with a calm personality which I found very helpful interacting with my one hyperactive and one very timid shy (mill dog). Shellie was very thorough in describing her services and answering my questions. In addition to positive interaction with my dogs she was being attentive she came prepared with doggie treats and water. She is very passionate about animals and talked about her dog as a family member. I would highly recommend 4 Paws and will call on them again.

Andres Alarcon enjoys the companionship of two bulldogs and understands the responsibility that comes with dog ownership. Millions of Americans are attacked by dogs every year. Dogs can cause serious injury when they are not properly trained and supervised.
Utah dog owners must be particularly vigilant. In Utah, every person who keeps a dog is strictly liable for any injury caused by the dog. The dog bite victim is not required to prove that the owner was negligent, that the dog was not properly restrained or that the dog was vicious. The only two prerequisites for seeking compensation are:
- The victim was injured; and
- The injury was caused by a dog.
Many victims fail to report dog bites because the victim is either closely related to the dog owner or is unaware of whether the owner has insurance coverage. However, since strict liability applies, the victim need not accuse the dog’s owner of wrongdoing. In addition, dog bite injuries are typically covered by the dog owner’s home or renter’s insurance policy.
There are some limits to strict liability. For example, pursuant to Utah’s comparative fault statute, compensatory damages may be reduced in cases where the dog bite victim was a trespasser or was otherwise at fault for the attack.
If you have been injured by a dog, you may be entitled to receive compensation for your medical and/or psychological treatment, pain and suffering, permanent scarring or disability, lost wages and loss of future earning capacity. An experienced attorney can review your claim to ensure that you are fairly and adequately compensated for your injury.

"Cats require purity and simplicity." — SEM
This website is my gift to you, dear reader, in honor of SEM, one very fine cat who died of CRF in 2001. SEM died two months before his 20th birthday, two days before 9/11. We miss him.
I created this site because I would have welcomed one like it when we were struggling with SEM's constipation. Not only have I learned more since then but there is more available to learn, available to us all.
My wish is to make information about gut health and constipation in cats accessible in a manner that leads to understanding. In my experience, understanding how things work helps us to help our cats better. I hope you will agree and that your sweet cats benefit.
This website is not written by a veterinarian or a medical expert but
by me, a regular person. I am not an expert and there is always more to learn.
If your cat is constipated, struggling to poop or not pooping or showing signs of digestive or bowel problems, your cat should see your vet now. You can read later, once the crisis is past, once your cat's distress is relieved and you can concentrate.
Please do return when you can to read the information offered here, or read on now if all is currently well in your house. In case you missed the website entry points above, below is another doorbell. Welcome!

1)-What Is Brain Training For Dogs?
Created by Adrienne Farricelli, this dog training course if for those dog owners and managers who want to train their dogs with the Force-Free Training. I know there are many dog trainers and local dog centers that are still using ages-old technique including Showing Dominance or some kind of it to train dogs. I never recommend these types of training.
Adrienne’s program uses Force-Free Training and Positive reinforcement approach to bring out dog’s hidden intelligence. And Adrienne has provided both written and video content to make it easy for you to understand and follow the techniques. This dog training program is digital that means you will get immediate access to it.
Some online dog training courses contain a free trial period and a money-back guarantee.
3)- Problems the program promises to solve :
Adrienne promises that the Brain Training for Dogs can solve dozens of
behavioural problems on your pet. This includes but not limited to the
🐕Digging and aggressive chewing
🐕Pulling on the leash
🐕New puppy training
🐕Jumping on people and things
You can get started almost immediately by hitting the bright yellow button below and getting your very own copy of Brain Training For Dogs today.
4)-How does the program work?
The premise of this program is building your dog’s trust and confidence
in you and teaching it the tricks included in the book. With the use of
positive reinforcement and rewards, you can pave the way to teaching
your dog more commands.
Take note that the Brain Training for Dogs doesn’t just bribe the
canine. Later on in the program, you’ll be taught how to start ditching
the food reward and replacing it with another motivation.
Moreover, the goal of this program is to dampen negative behavior and
make your dog smarter. At the end of the program, your pooch should more
of a problem solver, more active, and more disciplined than before you
start the training.
So would I get this program for my doggo? Definitely!
you’ll get 10 years’ worth of training materials for just US$47! This
is a total giveaway, especially for dog owners who can’t afford a dog
Just so you know the professional
dog training will cost at least $30 to $100 PER HOUR. But with
Adrienne’s program, you’ll just shell out a small amount and you’ll use
your time and effort to make it work.
