While the humans are stocking up on sweets, let's not forget our little feline monsters! 🎃🐈‍

Here are a few cat-friendly Halloween treats to try:

🐟 A little plain, cooked fish – boneless and unseasoned!

🐔 Bite-sized cooked chicken – no bones, skin or seasoning.

🐾 Their favourite cat treats – served in a spooky little treat hunt around the house!

👻 PawPaw tip: Keep chocolate, sweets and Halloween goodies away from curious whiskers. And remember, treats should only make up a small part of your cat's daily food intake.

Happy Fang-tastic Friday! 🎃🧡💙

Cats LOVE a good hiding spot. Under the bed, behind the curtains, inside that cardboard box you were about to throw away. 😂

But what if your usually sociable feline suddenly starts hiding more than normal?

Here are a few possible reasons:

🐾 Stress or fear: Visitors, loud noises, new pets or changes at home can send your cat into hiding.

🐾 A little alone time: Some cats simply enjoy a quiet, cosy spot away from the household chaos.

🐾 Pain or illness: Cats are experts at concealing discomfort. Sudden or persistent hiding can sometimes signal that something isn't right.

🐾 Watch for other changes: Loss of appetite, unusual tiredness, changes in litter-box habits or reluctance to move are reasons to pay attention.

🧡 PawPaw tip: If your cat's hiding behaviour is sudden, persistent or accompanied by other symptoms, contact your vet. And never force a frightened cat out of its safe space.

What are some safe games to play with your puppy at home? Here are a few PawPaw favourites! 🐾

🧸 1. Hide-and-seek!
Hide somewhere easy and call your puppy's name. When they find you, reward them with lots of praise and a little treat! It's a fun way to practise recall and build confidence.

👃 2. Sniff out the treats!
Hide a few puppy-friendly treats around a room and let that clever little nose do the work. Start with easy hiding spots and make things trickier as your pup learns the game.

🎾 3. Gentle fetch!
Roll a soft, puppy-safe toy a short distance and encourage your pup to bring it back. Keep sessions short and avoid repetitive jumping, sharp turns or slippery floors while those growing joints are still developing.

🪢 4. A little tug-of-war!
Yes, puppies can enjoy a gentle game of tug! Use a soft, appropriately sized toy, keep the movements low and controlled, and teach your pup to release the toy on cue. No yanking or lifting your puppy off the ground!

📦 5. The cardboard box challenge!
Pop a few toys into a sturdy cardboard box and let your puppy investigate. It's a lovely way to encourage curiosity and problem-solving. Just supervise closely so they don't chew or swallow bits of cardboard.

🐾 A few PawPaw puppy safety tips:

💙 Keep play sessions short, with plenty of rest and fresh water.
🧡 Choose toys that are the right size and don't have small, detachable parts.
💙 Avoid rough play, high jumps and overexertion, especially with growing puppies.
🧡 If your puppy hasn't completed their vaccinations, stick to safe environments and follow your vet's advice about outdoor play.

And remember, puppies need LOTS of sleep between all that mischief! 😴

So, what's your puppy's favourite weekend game? Tell us below! 🐶👇

Happy weekend from PawPaw! 🧡💙

🎃🍬 TRICK OR TREAT? More like TRICK OR TROUBLE! 🐶😂

You turn your back for TWO seconds, and suddenly your dog has discovered the Halloween sweets stash!

But here's the scary bit: Are Halloween sweets dangerous for dogs? 👻

YES! Chocolate, sweets containing xylitol (also called birch sugar), and raisins can be seriously toxic to dogs.

🐾 Keep Halloween treats well out of paw's reach.
🐾 Remind the kids not to share their sweets with furry family members.
🐾 If your dog eats chocolate or other potentially toxic treats, contact your vet immediately. Don't wait for symptoms!

And remember, PawPaw's Comprehensive Plan offers cover for eligible unexpected accidents and illnesses, subject to policy terms, limits and exclusions. 🧡💙

Keep the scares spooky, not serious! 🎃🐾

With PawPaw's Comprehensive Plan, your pet's illness cover kicks in after a 31-day waiting period!

And when some other pet covers make you wait until Day 61? Well, we think that's a pretty BIG difference. 😉

🐱💧 Is your cat a little too cool for water? 😼

Keep an eye out for signs of dehydration:

💧 Dry or sticky gums
💧 Low energy
💧 Poor appetite
💧 Sunken-looking eyes

PawPaw tip: Pop a few fresh water bowls around the house. Your little diva might even prefer a drinking fountain! 😂

If you suspect dehydration, give your vet a call.

Keep those cool cats hydrated! 🧡💙
