Nope here! 👁️
As you can see, I only have one eye left! My eye had to be removed at a very young age due to it being ruptured. My mom and dad aren't entirely sure what caused my eye to rupture, but suspect it could have been because of a bacterial infection and maybe some sort of physical trauma. I spent a lot of time at the hospital while I was recovering and quickly became a favorite among the staff.
Now that I'm living at home with my mom and dad, I loooove to terrorize my parents and my other feline siblings! Peeing in my dad's shoes is my favorite hobby. My nickname is "a**hole" but I don't know what it means! I think it means that my parents want me to keep peeing in shoes, don't you? 😼

This bun is riding in style! 🚐 Choosing the rig

This bun is riding in style! 🚐
Choosing the right type of carrier for your small pet is important to their comfort and safety. Pets should have enough room to comfortably turn around and lay down in the carrier. Carriers with multiple openings (like on the ends and/or the top) are great for vet visits, so assistants can choose from a variety of methods to take a pet out of the carrier. This can help keep pets more calm since they can be picked up rather than pulled out of the carrier.
This carrier is used to transport a rabbit, Presh, who loves how spacious and well-structured it is. 🐰

Peek-a-boo! Phil played a little hide-and-seek during his annual health exam. He thought he was sneaky, but Chrissy is a pro and knew he would be hiding next to the spray cheese. Cats love spray cheese!

Sesame seeds or tapeworm eggs? 🤔 If you guessed

Sesame seeds or tapeworm eggs? 🤔
If you guessed tapeworm eggs, then you are correct. Tapeworm eggs are very small and seed-like in appearance, but you don't want to be topping your hamburger bun with these! 🤮

Have you tried dog shoes before? 🥾🥾
Eli's dog, Usagi, LOVES them! Usagi wasn't a huge fan of the shoes at first, but quickly learned that shoes mean she gets to go on a hike. Elizabeth loves them because they protect Usagi's paws from stickers and other sharp objects that may cause injury. 🌳🐶🙋‍♀️

What do you do if your cat or dog is choking? Chew

What do you do if your cat or dog is choking? Chews, toys and miscellaneous household items can quickly become choking hazards for our pets. Every second counts when your pet is choking, so acting fast is vital to ensuring their safety.

Restrain your pet first. If your cat or dog is choking, then they likely will be struggling. This can result in further harm so it is very important to secure your pet first. Determine where the source of choking is coming from. Is your pet choking because of something wrapped around their neck or is there something in their mouth/throat?

If there is a cord around the neck, carefully cut it with scissors. Sometimes pets will get their collar caught on a handle and this can cause choking. Lift your pet to ease the force on their neck and unclip the collar.

Internal choking calls for a different approach. Open your pet's mouth to see if you can dislodge the item with your finger. If you cannot see anything, do not reach into their throat as this can push the item further down. You may have to perform the Heimlich Maneuver to dislodge the object. See the photo below for different methods to alleviate an internal choking source. Once your pet is no longer choking do a once-over to make sure there are no wounds as a result of the choking.

What can pet owners do to help prevent situations that can result in choking? Breakaway pet collars are great because they will pull apart if too much force is exerted on the clasp. Use a trash can with a lid to make it more difficult to break into. Evaluate your surroundings to look for possibly choking hazards.
