Likely a touch naughty but hopefully more nice, your pets – whether they know it or not – are gearing up for a visit from Santa Paws. From holiday treats to festive toys to advent calendars, our crew at Paws ‘n Claws is ready to make your furry friend’s Christmas dreams come true. “We find that pets – dogs or cats – like to open their own stockings and find surprise gifts on Christmas day just like we do, just like our kids do,” says Paws ‘n Claws co-owner Erin Campbell. “Whether it be a dog treat or a cat toy, they also enjoy being surprised with a new gift.”
November is a month to celebrate and bring awareness to the many amazing shelter animals in this country. Coming off the heels of October, which is Adopt-a-Shelter Dog Month, November highlights the older shelter animal population with its designation as Adopt-a-Senior-Pet Month. Also in November is Animal Shelter Appreciation Week – always the first full week of November – and is a great time to honor not only animal shelters, but also the wonderfully compassionate people who dedicate their time to helping and supporting these inspiring animals.
Full of tricks and treats, October is a month for spooky fun. And while most pets love treats, making sure they are canine or feline treats is especially important with Halloween right around the corner. In fact, Halloween can often be a stressful, toxic and dangerous time for pets, so keeping them safe and calm is key. As the new owners of Paws ‘n Claws, we have some insight and tricks to share on how best to keep your pets comfortable with the frightful fun that is soon to come.
