Cats’ behavior is not always explainable; sometimes, they do strange things that we just don’t understand. From random meowing to jumping at the sight of their own shadow, there are a lot of cat behaviors and reactions that might perplex us.

When going through a separation, it can be hard enough to determine what to do with one pet that both you and your ex love and adore. However, when it comes to divorce and multiple pets, these decisions can be even harder.

During the winter months, pet owners and pets tend to stay inside more, away from the cold and snowy conditions outside. If you live in a cold climate and your pet experiences allergies, you’ll probably be relieved that the grass and leaves have died, and that pollen won’t resurface until spring.

The new year is just a few days away, and for many people, that means a fresh start and a new set of goals. New year’s resolutions are all about bettering yourself—whether you’re focused on your health, fitness, social life or other personal achievements. While you’re setting goals for yourself in the new year, don’t forget to make a few resolutions for your pets, as well!

When dogs or cats get into something they’re not supposed to, it’s likely that their stomachs will get upset and they will vomit. However, this isn’t the only time pets can experience nausea and vomiting. Nausea can be caused by a wide range of health problems and can be quite serious.

Aside from newborn kittens who haven’t been taught yet, almost all cats use a litter box daily. It’s one of the easy aspects of owning a cat—there’s no need to take them outside or clean up urine or feces messes. That is, as long as your cat uses the litter box as they should.

2020 is right around the corner, and you might be gearing up to host your annual New Year’s Eve bash with your family and closest friends. Although celebrating surrounded by loved ones, dancing and making noise when the clock strikes 12 is all part of the fun, if you’re a pet owner, there’s one thing you should make sure not to forget about—your pet!

When pets receive a cancer diagnosis—one of the scariest diagnoses a pet parent can hear—coming up with a plan for treatment is one of the first steps in their hopeful recovery. Conventional approaches to pet cancer treatment typically include surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, but these are not cures for cancer. Their goals are largely to help your pet into cancer remission, but there is no guarantee they will be effective.

Many pet owners are familiar with being woken up by their cat resting on their chest or licking their face. Cats don’t always have a sense of boundaries, which gives us owners the less-than-pleasant opportunity to get a whiff of their stinky tuna breath.
