Catnip contains a natural compound called nepetalactone, which interacts with scent receptors in many cats.

Some cats become playful and energetic, while others roll, rub, purr, or simply relax. The effects usually last about 10–15 minutes before wearing off. Interestingly, not every cat responds to catnip. Sensitivity is inherited, and about one-third of cats don't react to it at all.

It's true! Dogs have far fewer taste buds than people, but they make up for it with an incredible sense of smell. That's why scent often plays a much bigger role than flavor when they're deciding what to eat.

Every cat has their own personality when it comes to affection.

Some love being held, some tolerate it for a few seconds, and others prefer to keep all four paws firmly on the ground. Paying attention to your cat's body language is the best way to know when they're comfortable.

Sweet, affectionate, and eager to please, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is known for its gentle personality and love of companionship. These dogs enjoy spending time with their families and are happy whether they're joining you for a walk or relaxing on the couch.

Cats are actually crepuscular, which means they're naturally most active at dawn and dusk. Those early morning zoomies and evening bursts of energy are completely normal. If your cat is keeping you awake at night, try scheduling interactive play sessions before bedtime followed by a small meal. This can help satisfy their hunting instincts and encourage a longer night's sleep.

Does your cat wake you up before your alarm? Tell us in the comments!

If you have questions about your cat's behavior, give us a call at (902) 835-2223.

Yes. Biting is a normal part of kitten development. Kittens use play to learn about their environment and develop bite inhibition. While it may not feel very gentle, this is an important part of growing up.

The best approach is to redirect biting toward appropriate toys and avoid encouraging play with your hands or fingers.

With consistency and patience, most kittens outgrow this stage and learn to play more gently. If you have questions about your kitten's behavior, we're happy to help. Call us at (902) 835-2223.

Almost never. Cats don't have accidents to "get back at" their owners.

Instead, they're usually trying to tell us something is wrong. Common causes include:
🚽 Urinary tract infections
🪨 Bladder stones
😿 Stress or anxiety
🦴 Arthritis or pain
🧹 Litter box issues

A cat that repeatedly goes in and out of the litter box, strains to urinate, or produces little to no urine could have a urinary blockage, a life-threatening emergency, especially in male cats. If your cat suddenly stops using the litter box, don't punish them. Schedule a veterinary visit to find the underlying cause.

Let's be honest...

To your dog, you're the favorite person in the world. You're the food provider, the walking buddy, the toy thrower, and the source of endless belly rubs.

If your dog had to describe you in one word, what do you think it would be?

Share your answer in the comments, we'd love to hear it!
