The CriTTer Concierge

The CriTTer Concierge As the name suggests, we offer many services relating to pets, including pet sitting in your home an I have been a veterinary technician for over 30 years.

I've worked in the field since I was a teenager. Companion animals are my passion and helping people is a close second so I've evolved to doing in-home nursing care. I do pet-sitting in people's homes, even overnight since I don't think dogs do well with just having someone come in to the house for visits, even multiple times during the day. Cats, on the other, hand, seem to do well in their own e

nvironment with someone coming in once or twice a day to feed, water, clean up, and give them some TLC. I've helped folks with end-of-life situations, puppy selection...you name it. If you need assistance with a pet concern, just ask and I will help if I can or try to find you someone who can.

In the 1870s, the city of Liège in Belgium conducted an unusual experiment involving cats as mail carriers.

As part of a test proposed by the Belgian Society for the Elevation of the Domestic Cat, 37 cats were trained to deliver messages in small waterproof bags attached to their necks. The cats were released in villages around Liège with the goal of returning home with the mail, similar to how carrier pigeons operated.

While some cats did successfully return—one in under five hours—the overall results were inconsistent, as the cats tended to follow their own whims rather than strict delivery routes.

Due to their unreliable nature, the experiment was never repeated.

If you’re using any fertilizer on your lawn this spring or summer, be sure to read the label first and follow all instructions to make sure you know when it’s safe again for your pet. If ingested, smaller amounts can cause an upset stomach, but larger amounts can cause severe poisoning from the iron, nitrogen and other chemicals.

Public health responds to hundreds of incidents of people being bitten by animals. A large proportion of these incidents involved dogs, and in almost all of these incidents, the bite could have been prevented. To learn more, visit: https://bit.ly/4drGqqS
