MEOW-OWWWW! YOUR PET’S ACHING BACK!
Monday, March 1st, 2010This article appeared in the February 2010 issue of E Bella Magazine and is written by Inko’s Exemplary Pet Care Services Owner and Manager, Ali O’Connor. Humans aren’t the only ones with aches and pains. Ali O’Connor explains how pet owners can help their four legged friends.
If I were lucky enough to have 9 lives, I’d be willing to bet eight of them that at some point in the last six months, you’ve grabbed your back or neck and thought “I need a massage!”. Not only is massage a way to pamper ourselves, it can help us rid our bodies of pain and toxins. After all, our bodies are comprised of bones, muscle, tendons, ligaments and connective tissue and plainly stated, that stuff breaks down. (more…)
Kuranda Bed Project
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010Check out the information about the Kuranda Bed project for Collier County Domestic Animal Services… enough beds have been donated now to allow the dogs a soft place to sleep and get them off the concrete floor. Now we’re working on getting beds for the cats!! So be sure to check out www.kuranda.com and find the ‘donate a cat bed’ for rescue button and for about $70.00 you can supply two beds so the kitties don’t have to sleep in their litter boxes for a soft spot.
Does my pet have alzheimers?
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009Dogs and Cats may indeed suffer from something similar to what we humans know as Alzheimers. It’s called CDS or Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome.

In years past, many pets were kept outside facing the perils most inside pets do not face. Additionally, veterinary care was minimal and pet just simply faced more issues that potentially shortened their lifetime. Though there are disputes that diets were more natural and pets were healthier because of that, they weren’t receiving the comforts that most receive now.

Exercise Your Kitty
Friday, August 21st, 2009The Dogs usually get the attention for the ‘exercise’ category don’t they? And I’m a huge advocate of the whole ‘exercise + dog = good’ thing.

I think exercise is thought of for dogs as more of a way to keep their behavior in check even though its great for their weight and health too.
