🐾💙 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗰𝘂𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆 💙🐾

Today we’re celebrating the resilience of rescue cats and the compassionate people who give them a second chance.

One of our team members is sharing the story of her sweet boy, Parkleigh (Parker for short). 🐱 Two Octobers ago, Parker was abandoned behind a dumpster, where a few kindhearted truckers found him and contacted the Humane Society of Avon.

That very night, her partner stepped up to foster him so he wouldn’t have to spend a single night in a kennel. From the very first photo, she knew Parker was meant to be part of their family. 💙

During the fostering process, they learned Parker is diabetic. They committed to learning how to manage his insulin and medical needs, ensuring he would have the happy, healthy life he deserved. That January, they officially adopted him — and he has been their baby boy ever since.

Rescue pets sometimes come with unexpected challenges, but they also come with extraordinary love.

Love comes in many forms… sloppy kisses, loud purrs, happy tail wags, and the comforting weight of a furry best friend curled up next to you. Today we’re celebrating puppy love — and the unconditional love our pets give us every single day. ❤️🐶🐱

As you enjoy your Valentine’s Day festivities, here are a few important pet safety reminders:

🍫 𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗰 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗲𝘁𝘀. Keep candy dishes and gift boxes safely out of reach.
🌸 𝗕𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀. Lilies are extremely dangerous to cats, and some mixed bouquets can cause stomach upset.
🍬 𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘅𝘆𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗹.This sugar substitute (found in sugar-free candy and gum) is highly toxic to dogs.
🕯️ 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 + 𝘄𝗮𝗴𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 = 𝗵𝗮𝘇𝗮𝗿𝗱. Never leave candles unattended.
🎀 𝗥𝗶𝗯𝗯𝗼𝗻𝘀 & 𝗴𝗶𝗳𝘁 𝘄𝗿𝗮𝗽 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻’𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝘆𝘀. They can cause serious intestinal blockages if swallowed.

If your pet gets into something they shouldn’t, please don’t wait — reach out to us at (𝟳𝟭𝟲) 𝟲𝟲𝟮-𝟲𝟲𝟲𝟬 right away. We’re here to provide compassionate care and clear communication when you need it most.

Drop a photo of your Valentine in the comments — we’d love to see your furry loves! 💕🐾

❄️🐾 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗛𝗮𝘇𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗔𝗹𝗲𝗿𝘁 ❄️🐾

Winter walks can be tough on your pet’s paws. Ice melt, salt, and frozen sidewalks can lead to irritation, dryness, or even small cuts. While getting outside is important, a little extra paw care goes a long way during the colder months.

✨ 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝘄 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗶𝗽𝘀:
• After each walk, gently wipe your pet’s paws to remove salt and residue
• Check between paw pads for ice buildup or redness
• Consider using protective booties to shield their feet from harsh surfaces
• Apply pet-safe paw balm to keep pads moisturized

If your pet experiences complications from winter hazards, call us at (𝟳𝟭𝟲) 𝟲𝟲𝟮-𝟲𝟲𝟲𝟬 or visit us at 𝟯𝟵𝟯𝟬 𝗡 𝗕𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗼 𝗦𝘁, 𝗢𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸, 𝗡𝗬 𝟭𝟰𝟭𝟮𝟳—we’re here to help!

January is 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝗴 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵, a perfect time to strengthen the bond between you and your pup through positive training, enrichment, and consistency. Whether you’re teaching basic manners or brushing up on old skills, a little training goes a long way in keeping dogs confident, safe, and happy.

✨ 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱:
• Keep sessions short, fun, and frequent
• Use positive reinforcement—treats, praise, and play
