What Is The Ideal Diet For A Pet Rabbit?

The cornerstone of a rabbit's daily diet should be grass, hay and lots of it.  Hay provides the essential
fiber that rabbits and all herbivores need for proper gastrointestinal function and to promote proper dental wear.  High quality grass hay should make up at least 75% of an adult rabbit's diet and should be offered in unlimited amounts.  A lower fiber, higher energy/protein legume hay such as alfalfa is ideal for young pregnant
and lactating pets.

Approximately 20% of a rabbit's diet should come from a measured amount of a complete and uniform fortified food.  One with a proper balance of fiber, carbohydrates, protein and essential micro nutrients such
as vitamins and minerals.  Rabbit owners should choose an age appropriate formula and avoid mixes which allow animals to feed selectively, leading to unbalanced nutritional intake.

Rabbits will additionally appreciate and benefit from small amounts of healthy treats and appropriate greens. Healthy treats made with hay, herbs and freeze-dried fruits and veggies, the higher the fiber and lower the protein carbohydrate level the better.  A small to moderate amount of appropriate greens are great addition to a rabbit's diet as well.  Some good options include romaine, bib and red/green leaf lettuces.

Finally, rabbits should always have unlimited access to clean fresh water from two difference sources, such
as a tip proof bowl and a sipper bottle.

How Does A Wheat-Based Cat Litter Work?



A common misconception cat owners have of natural litter is that is is not as effective at
eliminating odors as clay litters.  Clay litters are just masking the odor while natural litters like Swheat Scoop
completely eliminate the odor.

Swheat Scoop is made from ground wheat, which contains two natural properties (a starch and an enzyme)
that make it a great option for you and your cats.  The manufacturing process exposes the starch of the
grain from the inside of the kernel which makes the product clump, and also exposes enzymes in the kernel,
which react with the enzymes in the cat waste to neutralize each other.

That is how you end up with no odor the natural way.

For anyone wishing to keep a chemical free environment at home.  Swheat Scoop is a brand you can trust to not only keep it chemical free, but odor free as well.  And you can also be assured that it will not
compromise the health of your family and other pets in the house.

10 Reasons We Love Our Pets


Instant stress reliever.   Petting a dog or cat reduces stress. 
 If you are feeling a little anxious, sit with Sophie and share some love. 
 Plus, they always know when you need a hug.

No alarm clock needed.  You do not have to worry about over sleeping.  A paw
in your face or consistent bedroom pacing will ensure you will enjoy sun rises
together.

Exercise buddy.  If you ever to near the leash they are there, tails wagging and 
excitement growing every second.

The best conversation partner.  Pet's do not talk back.Had a bad day? You
can share your troubles with your pets and they will not judge you, try to fix it or interfere/  They will just let you share while they listen.

You do not have to get dressed up.  Your pets do not require your best  clothes, 
full makeup and a trip o the hair stylist.  They love you in your ratty sweater and
that sweater with the hold in it.

Stay present.  pets do not worry about yesterday, or tomorrow, they live in the 
moment.. It is a skill us humans could all benefit from practicing.

Simple needs.  Aside from wanting to eat lots of tasty healthy food, cats and
dogs do not require expensive gadgets to keep them happy.  An empty box or
old toy will do.

Keep you entertain.  There is a reason.  The internet is populated with 
photos of cats and dogs.  They are always doing something adorable and fun.  Whether  your cat chases his or her tail while running through the house or your do stops  you in your tracks with that guilty look like it is hard to resist their charm.

Do not require Taxi Service.  They do not miss the bus and don't need  a ride
to soccer practice. Instead you two go on rides for fun.

Unconditional love.  The final reason we love our pets.  We know we can count
on them to love us without question.

Keep Your Dog Safe & Happy During The Winter



Sure most dogs have their own coat, but you would not want to go out in a blizzard in a light spring jacket.

Make sure small delicate and short haired dogs, even large ones like Greyhounds have an appropriate winter wardrobe.  

Dogs can suffer from frostbite, especially on delicate ear flaps and tail tips. 
In extreme cold it is a good idea to keep dogs inside, with the exception of the heavy coated northern breed that thrive in low temperature. if it is not possible to keep the dog indoors.

Be aware of the major signs of frostbite, which include skin that appears white or blue.. 

As little as a teaspoon of antifreeze can cause kidney failure.

Be alert to the signs that your dog has swallowed some of it, which include drooling, vomiting, seizures, excessive thirst and a drunken appearance. 

If you think your dog has ingested antifreeze, it is important to get your dog to a vet as soon as possible.  Even if you keep your antifreeze safely tucked away there i still a danger from residue on the streets. 

Most antifreeze is green ethylene glycol, but it comes in several different colors.  So watch where your dog is sniffing.

Avoid thin ice.  It might look like fun to slide across that frozen pond, but ice can easily crack and your dog and you could fall in.  

Slipping on ice can also lead to muscle strains and other injuries.

Protect Those Paws




For dogs who wear them, booties may be the best solution for winter foot protection.  For dogs who will not wear shoes, use paw wax such as Musher's Secret,

Hair on the feet of long haired dogs can from ice balls between pads and toes.  Keep them well trimmed, cutting the hair so that it is even with the surface of the foot.

City streets are coated with such de-icing substances as sodium-chloride (rock salt) and calcium, chloride, which makes sidewalks safe for pedestrians, but can damage paw pads.  
Make sure you wash them off.  

Keep a bucket next to the door to rinse the dog's feet as soon as the dog comes in from the cold.

Use warm water and make sure to reach spots between the toes and pads. 
Some dogs will also need a moisturizer for dry skin.
