Pet Plan Insurance

/p> Cats are living longer lives thanks to dedicated care from their humans, and advances in veterinary medicine. Most experts consider a cat's "senior years" to begin on her 10th birthday. After this point, the aging process begins to slow in even the most playful feline. Yet, with a little extra attention from her owner, Miss Kitty might enjoy another 5-10 years of life and love. Just as with humans, cats often lose the ability to hear as they age. This often goes unnoticed by owners, who ...

I would rather drink Clorox than waiting room coffee. But of course I drink it, and I'm glad it's there. 'How nice,' I think, 'that they provide this.'

How about you? I find the circumstances in a ...

Dear Mr. Katz: I have a 4 month old female pup, AmStaff/Boxer (we think - she was a rescue). She responds well to all training, EXCEPT for walking and heeling. We've practiced the loose-leash "turning on a dime" technique described in your book and audio tape at length, but she refuses to cooperate. It's not a matter of distraction - when I attempt to train her in this style, she pulls back with all her strength. When the loose leash is snapped, she sits, paws braced, or lays down on her back. ...

/p> Many parents know that the best way for children to learn compassion and the importance of keeping commitments is by helping to care for a pet.

My husband and I decided to give our children a real treat this Easter...A real live Easter Bunny! We made a trip to our local Agway store and, as we suspected, they had several baby bunnies for sale, along with fresh-hatched chicks and ducks. Thank heaven that Darlene, the lady working during our visit, knew a good bit about bunnies. She was able to quickly gather the essentials we needed to take our new family member home, before our 2 year-old harmed any of the little chicks that she ...
