  Things to consider before you adopt a cat Cats need to be fed once to twice a day, more often in the case of kittens, and need a constant supply of fresh water. A responsible pet parent should spend at least one hour per day giving direct attention to his or her cat. This may include training, exercising, grooming, and playing or may just be lap time on the couch. A cat with an abundance of energy needs more time to exercise and interactive toys to keep them entertained. Cats with long coats need 20 minutes...

It is hard to believe that it has been almost 12 years since Cosmo Kramer came into our lives.

Science blog reported new guidelines for pet CPR that every fur family should be aware of. Recommended Practices: Perform 100-120 chest compressions per minute of one-third to one-half of the chest width, with the animal lying on its side. Ventilate intubated dogs and cats at a rate of 10 breaths per minute, or at a compression to ventilation ratio of 30 to 2 for mouth-to-snout ventilation. Perform CPR in 2-minute cycles, switching the “compressor” each cycle. Administer vasopressors every 3–5 minutes during CPR. Chest compression techniques for medium, large, and giant breed dogs.

Most dogs will naturally start paddling when in water.  However, this does not mean they can stay afloat, are good at it or like it.  When growing up our family dog loved going into the water.  He would walk out into the lake and walk and walk until the water was over his head.  We had to stop bring him to the lake because he never could understood when to start paddling.  There are always exceptions to natural instinct. Typically dog’s who struggle with swimming have a large heavy chest in comparison to their hindquarters, often have a short muzzle and short legs.  For example a bulldog...
