Essential oil diffusers may smell pleasant to us, but some oils can be harmful to cats.

Because cats groom themselves frequently, oils that settle on their fur, paws, or nearby surfaces can be ingested over time. Cats also process certain compounds differently than people, making them more sensitive to some essential oils.

What is happening here?!? How did I miss this baby today? I have the most amazing team to send me pictures of the sweet pupcorns (yes, it’s a word). Ms. Georgia Hall brought in Gyzi, a year old Shi Tzu that may or may not be completely perfect. The team absolutely looooves him. 10/10 perfect pup 👑🐶

I hope everyone knows I get consent on every post. So I will not violate anyone’s privacy. I would like everyone to send some virtual good vibes to one of our pet parents that had to say goodbye to their faithful companion today. He will be missed. We have all been there and know how it feels 💔🐶

Check out this sweet baby girl. Found as a stray a little over a month ago, Ayah Habib has found her forever home. She is now an indoor kitty and like me, enjoys bird watching and spying on the neighbors. She’s hoping to become president of the neighborhood watch. I’d absolutely vote for her. Congrats on finding a wonderful home and becoming part of our Crepe Myrtle family 🏠🐾😻

This is the look of a distressed puppy. Katie and I are at home today waiting for an electrician while her sisters are at work with their dad. I have been deep cleaning the house which means she has to attempt to “help”. Katie trying to put on a duvet cover is honestly about as good as my attempt. She asked me to post about her unreasonable working conditions. Please don’t call CPS (Canine Protection Services). She’s asleep behind my chair right now. I was manipulated once again 🙄😴🐶

I need to thank the Price family for bringing in this cutie today. Meet Finley, a gorgeous 12yo Shepherd mix. According to his mom he’s amazing with the kids and never steals their toys. Can he teach my dogs? Dr. Schillig got a fist bump from the human kid and it made his day. Have a fantastic week Finley! 🧸🐶

UPDATE: It has been four days and he has not ventured up to the perch. His favorite treat, papaya, or as we call it “Pep-paya” is only available up top. He literally screams whenever he sees me because I’m the designated treat dealer. Only time will tell which one of us breaks first. My money is on him 🥭💰🦜

Pepper got a new perch today. He plans to be brave enough to venture to it in 3-5 business days. 🦜

The rarest cut of meat visited yesterday. Here’s Tri Tip a 1yo cutie patootie with the best personality and the sweetest owner, Kaija Pauley. We all fight over who gets to hold him. Ray was the lucky winner this time. He will be back next Tuesday for a little operation to prevent more Tri Tips. Don’t worry little buddy. We’ve got the good drugs 💊💉🐶
