Black Cats are notoriously symbols of witchcraft and Satanic worship. This may go back to 1233. Pope Gregory IX's decree Vox in Rama linked black cats to devil worship and witchcraft. During the Middle Ages the folklore expanded and they became associated with bad luck. Often in the US, there is a surge of Black Cat adoptions prior to Halloween and some shelters even ban their adoption because of people getting them just to torture on Halloween.

In Egypt, Britain, Scotland and Japan black cats can be a symbol of prosperity and good luck.

The good news is black cat adoption bias is statistically not true. In 2023, the ASPCA reported over 70% of black cats in the shelters found homes.

So, this Halloween remember black cats are just as wonderful as all the others and report any abuse that you observe.

Hey! I know it's a crazy world out there, but we need you to use basic decency when dealing with our staff. Here are some quick ways to be asked not to come back:

1) Grabbing my staff in any intentional manner. Sometimes when handing us your pet we may touch and we get that. BUT, any intentional grab is unacceptable for public manners, including here. You will be asked to not return.

2) Cursing at my staff. Unless you are in the middle of a joke that it for some reason is appropriate, we have common sense. If you tell my staff to "Shut up," you might as well just get back in your car and leave because our business is done for the day and forever.

We are all super excited to serve you this holiday season, but we need to set these basic expectations. If you are reading this and appalled that we have to post it - yes, we do. One staff member has been physically assaulted twice in two weeks, just because people think it's okay.

We want to be nice and give you personal service, but there are boundaries. Please respect the people who take care of your pets. We are actually not asking. This is an expectation.

NAIL TRIM CLINIC, Dogs only
SATURDAY, October 31,2026
10am-12pm, $10

Are you overwhelmed by the thought of getting your dog's nails trimmed/ground? Clark says the thought just wears him out.

This Saturday, we will hold a discounted nail trim clinic. This is not for dogs that need sedation or known special handling. First come, first serve.

***Since this is a discounted rate, we would prefer cash or check to avoid credit card processing fees.***

Please remember we need to be able to wash your laundry. While we are still willing to accept your bedding from home, we need you to remember that it needs to be machine washable or hand- washable in some way. Big beds need to be able to be taken apart or left at home. We do provide bedding free of charge.

Ps: Kong Beds are usually pretty easy to hand scrub if they can't be taken apart.

So, this happened yesterday. All of my 10 babies got a their 1st official baths. No screaming or crying. They were brave babies, even with the big scary dryers. Make sure your groomer has the capability to turn down the drying power. Babies, old dogs and dogs with seizure risk should never have a high velocity dryer used at maximum capacity, unless you want to ruin them for grooming for life.
