🐈‍⬛ Whisker Wednesday 🐾 For the crazy cat folks!

Why do our cats LOVE catnip!? 😻

House cats aren’t the only ones going crazy for catnip, big cats have similar reactions - rolling, pawing, vocalizing and generally going a little nuts. 🤪

Researchers found that the compound Nepatalactone, that’s in both catnip & silvervine, was not only was attractive to felines, but caused them to release endorphins when they interacted with it.

Endorphins are the “happy hormone”, and can relieve pain and stress. They also generally make our cats feel calm and happy.

Interestingly, the same compound was found to be an effective insect repellent! Researchers discovered that rolling, rubbing, and pawing at the catnip caused the plants to release even more Nepatalactone - aka more natural bug repellent. They hypothesize that the insect repellent properties are the primary reason wild cats interact with these plants. P

So next time you give kitty catnip & they start to roll in it, you’ll know they’re channeling their wild ancestors (and feeling pretty good while doing it).

I love to incorporate catnip with my own cats & while pet sitting! It’s a cheap and easy way to provide enrichment for our cats.

Our staff noticed Mason wasn’t himself today. Tummy troubles out of both ends and rather sluggish. Fearing a FBO (foreign body obstruction) the team whisked him to our good friends at Westford Veterinary Emergency & Referral Center.

After an exam, radiographs and ultrasound- they’ve determined he has a VERY angry intestine and colon, but they don’t believe there is an obstruction. Since he was looking dehydrated from all the tummy issues, they’re keeping him overnight and we’ll have an update in the morning.

The one thing I know for sure is- there will be a bill! Please consider helping us pay for his emergency visit. Stay tuned for pics of Happy Mason when he’s feeling better!

Mason is a young golden retriever at Lowell Humane Society waiting to find a home. His ideal home will be teens+ and no other pets - he’s a bossy boy with other dogs. When he’s feeling better he will be ready to roll.

Training Tip Tuesday ‼️ Building Confidence

Puppies *especially* need to build their confidence to grow into the balanced, well socialized adult dogs we all desire. An easy way to help build confidence is with agility training, like Miss Winnie is showcasing here🤩

Building confidence requires challenges, and you don’t have to break the bank buying agility equipment to challenge your pup. Be sure to start with a low level challenge to ensure success. Take into account your pups stature when choosing an elevated surface!

During your next walk, try coaxing your dog up onto any flat, elevated surface - benches, retaining walls, etc. Use treats as a lure if needed. Once they get up on the surface, reward and praise heavily. Repeat several times. If they still seem engaged, try some other known commands while on the elevated surface for an extra challenge.

If they are spooked and won’t jump fully up, reward for putting two paws up and holding them there. On your next walk, try getting them to jump up completely. Never force your dog to do this if they are uncomfortable or refusing!!

Introducing challenges to our dogs allow them to practice problem solving and interact with new things in their environment. When we plan these challenges it allows us to support their problem solving and aid in success. Every rep of successful navigation of a new task builds confidence!

Training games also build the bond between handler and dog. Not to mention they provide much needed mental stimulation to tire out high energy breeds!
