🎁 The holidays can get busy for both people and pets.

Whether hosting guests or traveling, a little preparation goes a long way to keep your furry family members safe and stress-free.

🏡 If hosting: Create a quiet, cozy space away from noise and visitors. Remind guests not to feed table scraps or leave doors open.

🚗 If traveling: Pack familiar items like beds, food, and toys, and make sure your pet’s ID tags and microchip information are current.

A calm pet is a happy traveler and host. 🐾✨

Many people make the mistake of hiding a new pet in a box or overwhelming them with loud excitement when introducing them to their family. Pets aren’t gifts—they’re lifelong family members who need a calm, safe, and gentle introduction.

✅ Let them explore their new space at their own pace

✅ Introduce family members slowly and quietly

✅ Provide a cozy bed, food, water, and plenty of love

Remember: bringing a pet home is a serious, long-term commitment. They rely on you for care, training, and companionship for years to come! ❤️

Happy International Day of Veterinary Medicine! 🐾 Vets do so much more than care for pets. They comfort, listen, translate those meows and tail wags, and go above and beyond every single day. Here’s to the incredible veterinarians who wear many hats (and always have treats in their pockets)!

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃 May your day be filled with gratitude, good company, and all the cozy fall vibes.

🗑️ Trash Trouble Alert! Keep trash bins tightly secured — curious pets and critters like raccoons love to get into holiday leftovers. Indoors, be sure to keep kitchen and bathroom trash out of reach, and outdoors, secure lids to prevent wildlife raids. Sealing scraps and securing lids helps protect your furry friends, prevents messes, and keeps everyone safe and healthy! 🚮
