Here are some very important tips to keep your pets safe over the 4th of July holiday from Pet Sitters International
"1. Keep pets inside during celebrations. While many humans love fireworks, they can be terrifying for pets, and a neighborhood that is normally quiet but becomes busy and loud on the Fourth of July can also cause undue stress—even to pets who are normally outside. When fireworks are likely to go off in your neighborhood or nearby, be sure to keep your pet inside in a safe space. |

With the July 4th holiday weekend just a week away, it is important to make arrangements for the care of your kitty if you are going to be away from home. I have had numerous calls over the past week or so for kitty care and many potential clients have requested visits for their cat every 2nd or 3rd day while they are gone. I repeatedly tell them that I will not take on a cat sit unless I get to visit the cat/s every day. Dr. Debra Primovic, DVM agrees. In a recent post on petplace.com she says the longest a cat should be left alone is 24 hours. |

For the life of me I cannot figure out why people insist on putting plastic liners in their cats litter box. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever for several reasons: 1) Plastic is an unnatural substance for cats to eliminate on. 2) Cats have claws and like to cover up their waste. When they do so, they inevitably rip the plastic liner. 3) When the liner gets ripped, it makes a terrible mess to have to change it. 4) Since the liner does get ripped, the actual bottom of the litter box gets waste and litter on it and has to be cleaned anyway. |
