Physical and mental exercise is critically important for senior dogs and cats. Senior cats can benefit from interactive toys and food puzzles to keep them entertained and to burn excess calories. While senior dogs may not be able to go on long, strenuous runs or hikes, shorter walks can help keep your dog lean and in good health.

If your schedule prevents you from regularly exercising your pets, contact us to provide dog walks or cat visits while you are away from home. [pawsonthehill.com]

Traveling Safely with Your Pets! 🐾✈️🚗

Whether you're hitting the road or flying to your next adventure, keeping your pets safe is a top priority! Here are some important tips to ensure a smooth and stress-free trip for you and your furry friends:

✅ Secure Your Pet – Use a pet seatbelt, carrier, or travel crate to keep them safe in the car. Never let them roam freely while driving!
✅ ID & Microchip – Make sure your pet has a collar with updated tags and a registered microchip in case they get lost.
✅ Pack the Essentials – Bring food, water, bowls, a leash, waste bags, and any medications they may need.
✅ Plan for Breaks – If you're driving, stop every few hours for potty breaks and stretching.
✅ Never Leave Pets in a Hot Car – Even with windows cracked, cars can heat up quickly and become dangerous.
✅ Check Airline & Hotel Policies – If flying or staying overnight, confirm pet policies ahead of time.
✅ Keep Them Comfortable – Familiar blankets or toys can help ease travel anxiety.

December is Cat Lover’s Month! 🐾

Here’s an important tip for all cat parents: Daily pet-sitting visits are a must for your feline friends—no skipping days!

While cats are often independent, they still need regular care and attention. Leaving them alone for more than a day can lead to serious issues. From medical emergencies like urethral blockages to unexpected accidents (like a dislodged water hose flooding your home), the risks are too great to ignore.

Even if you leave extra food and water, it’s not enough. A daily check-in ensures your cat stays safe, healthy, and happy while you’re away. 💕

Let’s keep our beloved cats safe this Cat Lover’s Month and beyond! 🐱

📢 Pet Parents, Take Note: Recognizing Early Signs of Diabetes in Pets

According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), early signs of diabetes in pets can be subtle but are important to spot. Look out for:

🐾 Excessive water drinking/increased urination
🐾 Weight loss (without a decreased appetite)
🐾 Decreased appetite
🐾 Cloudy eyes (common in dogs)
🐾 Chronic infections, such as skin or urinary infections

For diabetic cats, the Canadian Animal Health Institute also highlights “walking or standing in a plantigrade posture (‘down in the hocks’)” as an additional clinical sign.

If you notice any of these symptoms in your pet, reach out to your veterinarian right away. And if we observe any of these signs while pet sitting, rest assured, we’ll inform you immediately. 🐶🐱
