Arabella is seen here working with Dr. Tara Westworth doing squats and push ups on inflatables for the first time after having FHO surgery for hip dysplasia!
She has to work hard at strengthening the muscle around her hip as there is no longer a hip joint present.
Way to go Arabella!!!

🐾Did you know that staying hydrated is just as crucial for our feline friends as it is for us humans? 💧 Proper hydration is essential for maintaining your cat’s overall health and well-being.
Here are a few tips to ensure your kitty stays hydrated and happy:
Fresh Water: Always provide clean, fresh water for your cat to drink. Cats are more likely to drink water that’s been freshly poured, so be sure to refresh their water bowl regularly throughout the day.
Wet Food: Consider incorporating wet cat food into your cat’s diet, as it contains a higher moisture content than dry kibble. This can help increase your cat’s overall water intake and keep them hydrated.
Multiple Water Sources: Place water bowls in various locations around your home to encourage your cat to drink more frequently. Some cats prefer drinking from running water, so you may also want to try a cat fountain.
Flavorful Broths: Offer your cat flavorful broths or diluted chicken or tuna water as an enticing way to encourage them to drink more. Just be sure to use low-sodium options and avoid any ingredients that may be harmful to cats.
Monitor Hydration: Keep an eye on your cat’s water intake and monitor for signs of dehydration, such as dry gums, sunken eyes, or lethargy. If you notice any concerning symptoms, consult your veterinarian.
Remember, proper hydration is essential for your cat’s health and can help prevent issues like urinary tract infections and kidney disease. By taking simple steps to encourage hydration, you can help ensure your feline friend stays happy and healthy for years to come! 🐱💦 #CatHealth #HydrationIsKey #HappyCat 🌟
