Holiday Time! Now What to Do with Your Cat?

Now that you’ve banked your holidays, you’re hoping to use them all up in one go. A week or two in some exotic getaway island sounds like a great idea, but you have one important concern: what should you do about your pet cat? You can consider three options:

• Bring your cat along.

If your feline friend is a high risk for separation anxiety, it may be time to get the cat carrier out of storage. Ensure that your accommodation is pet-friendly and you’ve packed enough treats. A leash and a harness may also be needed to make sure kitty doesn’t get lost while you’re in a foreign area. You may need to spend extra for this option, however, and it may not always be feasible, especially if the resort or hotel you plan to stay in does not welcome pets.

The German Shepherd is Truly Man’s Best Friend

The German Shepherd is one of the most versatile canine breeds in the world. You see them as pets, drug busters and crook catchers for the police, or recon units for the Australian Army. Their versatility comes from their basic traits--intelligence and diligence--which give them their reputation of the ideal dog breed.

Stress-Free Holidays for You and Your Cat

The holidays are here once again, and as most people do: you’re going to leave your house for longer than a day or two. This can be pretty stressful for your pet cat who is used to seeing you at the end of the day, and suddenly realise that they’re all alone in a big house. More importantly, think of all the things that could go wrong while you’re away, and do you even know someone who you can completely trust to look after your favourite feline?
