Meet Sissy! Both deaf and blind, Sissy experiences the world with her nose and her heart.
Lucky Dog Animal Rescue says: "Sissy is content with the simple pleasures of life. She loves relaxing on her bed and will just enjoy her time there, going to her water bowl when she gets thirsty. She enjoys cuddling sessions. She relishes her rides in a stroller on warm days, sniffing the breeze. When her foster family goes on a road trip, she enjoys the car ride; she is an excellent traveler. When the four dogs in her foster home are playing around her, she likes just being near them. And oh yes, she loves her meals and her treats!
She communicates well with her humans. If she needs something - food, a water bowl refill, to go out for potty - she barks. She will also signal if she needs something during a car ride.
This sweet, calm, laid back girl experiences life with her nose and her heart. She is mostly blind and deaf. Her fosters say she has mapped her areas in their home and has her favorite spot there.
Because she is not able to see or hear when her humans are not around to respond to her barking cues, she would do best in a home where someone is home most of the day. Sissy has so much to offer in exchange. Love. Cuddles. And reminders of what is truly important."

"At The Big Bad Woof we believe that food is medicine, and the method of consumption matters as much as the food. There are three general ways to use food for enrichment: creating opportunities to forage or hunt; offering new types of food; or providing novel ways to feed, such as with food puzzles or lickimats."

I watch animal videos online more than I care to admit. I spend pretty much every morning watching and sharing goofy, heartwarming clips of cats and dogs and their humans. I especially enjoy dogs in drag and cats in breweries or bodegas. We can’t imagine life without them, but dogs and cats were...

Happy National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day! Meet Juniper, a six-year-old charmer with a heart of gold and a love for cuddles. Found living outside all alone, you would never know it from her love of human company, her affectionate nature, and her calm enjoyment of a cozy chair.
Juniper has seamlessly adapted to indoor life, whether snuggled in your lap or eagerly devouring her favorite treats. Her passion for food adds an adorable touch to her already lovable personality. With her playful spirit and gentle demeanor, Juniper is ready to bring warmth and joy into your home.
Despite being an adult with perfect manners (excellent with the litter box), Juniper has a playful spirit and the eager affection of a kitten! Adult cats are often overlooked and passed over for kittens, but she is truly the best of both worlds, so you get the kitten love and knowledge that you're making a huge difference!
If you're interested in bringing Juniper into your family, please contact A Cat's Life Rescue at [email protected].

🏔🐾 When you're on the go with your furry companion, maintaining their raw food diet can be a challenge. That's where freeze-dried food comes to the rescue! 🌟 No Mess, no fuss - just the same great diet your pet loves in a shelf-stable form. 1️⃣ Convenient and lightweight: Freeze-dried meals are compact and easy to pack, making them ideal for road trips, flights, or camping adventures. No need to lug around heavy coolers or worry about perishable items! 2️⃣ Retains nutritional value: Freeze-drying preserves the natural nutrients and flavors of the ingredients. Your pet will still enjoy the benefits of a raw diet, even while away from home. 3️⃣ Long shelf life: Freeze-dried food has an extended shelf life, so you can stock up and be prepared for future journeys. It's a reliable option for spontaneous trips or emergencies. 4️⃣ Easy to prepare: Just add water! Most freeze-dried meals rehydrate quickly with water, allowing your pet to enjoy a fresh and nourishing meal wherever you are. 5️⃣ Minimizes digestive issues: Sudden diet changes during travel can upset your pet's stomach. Freeze-dried food provides a consistent and familiar diet, reducing the risk of tummy troubles. 6️⃣ Variety of flavors: Freeze-dried food comes in a wide range of protein options, ensuring your pet can still enjoy their preferred flavors while away from home.
