Hi guys, it's been busy around here but Mum and I have found something really cool for our doggy pals this week. Freezy Pups - ingenuity for your doggy refreshment.  This has to be a great idea, sweet and simple and NipandBones sends you everything you need - it's organic, safe, and irrestible!

Freezy Pups are hydrating, refreshing, and irresistible!

Everything you need to get started is in this one kit. The kit includes a cool bone shaped ice cube tray and 4 organic gourmet recipe packets. Your dog will love the four flavors that include Juicy Apple, Sweet Potato 'n Maple, Chicken Soup, and White Cheddar Cheese. Each packet included will make 14 tasty bone ice dog treats for your dog.

Safe and made in the USA!

The tray is made from non-toxic, food grade, and recyclable materials. All ingredients included are organic.

Pet Treat Shopping for Seniors with Dash Kitten

* checks notes and cuts and pastes links into blog post *

Guys, I will focus, this week, on some senior items for the older cat and dog.  Things to make their lives a bit easier.

My aunty Peanut is a senior, she is nearly 15 and still the boss, altho' she does have some mobility issues, such as jumping on the bed. She can't now so mum has a set of steps.  Steps are not cheap but the ones I found are stylish, look like furniture and you would be happy to have them near your bed without going >>  ugh<<.  There is also a raised food bowl that you will like.....

Dogs often curl up at the bottom of the bed, they are close, they love being there and it's 'home'.  If that's taken away it's tough on you and them. So a dog ramp is worth considering. A full selection of dog ramps and stairs is here.  Oh, and there are also orthopaedic beds for that bit of extra comfort for your senior dog. too.

  

 Dog Ramp

Cat stairs for the senior cat are often not so large, but as much care goes into their construction and they are just as useful.  There are bed ramps and sofa ramps or steps (see below) to allow your kitty to cuddle up with Mum and Dad just like they did as a kitten, or make up for lost time if they are a rescue!

 

Cat Stairs

Finally, getting your fur friend up onto a bed is only one issue but an important one.  Another thing you might not thing about is feeding.  Older animals don't appreciate having to bow down quite so far for their food and this bowl is a great option for cats and smaller dogs.  Dont forget to give some treats too  here and here.

Anipal Academy Awards 2011

* ahem ahem - clears throat and shuffles notes *

OK Guys, I am involved with the event of the year, and YOU can be too. You don't need to be an expert at anything, there are tips on very easy dressing up at this link here, and the programme is here with tips on which #hastag to use.

I am going to be a Nusher on the red carpet Saturday afternoon (about 4pm New York Time Mum says) and I will be helping people to the event, those who get lost and generally mingling with everyone spreading goodwill!

'No-kill' shelters spring up to save lost pets | PoconoRecord.com

* TAP tap tap - checks notes - tap tap tap tap *

This article sheds light on the way society and its changes has affected how us cats are saved, sheltered or abandoned. It shows me that a small handful of sterling workers (like our friend FuzzyMice) fight against a rising tide of poor abandoned animals. It is both interesting to read and thought provoking. My anipal friends struggle sometimes - and this small handful fight back.

This is a tribute to them.

@TheNascarKitty Appeals For Our Help - Berlin Wisconsin

* tap tap tap CLICK  - tap tap tap *

OK pals I am sending out this message as part of the appeal from Tsitter pal Tiger Tommy aka @TheNascarKitty.  he's been a good pal to me so I am happy to pass this appeal on.

He says :-


Berlin, Wisconsin, Pugs and Doodles are 2 year old brother dogs. They are house dogs used to a lot of people and small children. Their human Mom has to leave quick...she is in an abusive marriage and is getting out of the house. She can't take her beloved dogs, but can''t bear to see them split up.

If somebody doesnt take them, they will end in the shelter with an uncertain future, because there is no other option for this lady, She has a 9 year old daughter and simply has to get away from the abuse.

Please let anybody you know who may beinterested in two great doggies know. Pictures will be available tomorrow.

Pugs is tall, perhaps the size of a smaller doberman, he appears to have some golden lab, maybe a little german shephard, in him. He's pretty active, would love to run and play and take walks, but also to snuggle on the couch.

Doodles is short with short legs, even though they are littermates, they are very different. Doodles is a little smaller than a Cocker Spaniel, but very solidly built. He's got some basset hound, golden lab, and it looks like a little Shar-Pei in him.

Neither is fixed, and they probably need updated shots, but the abusive spouse in this situation didn't leave much for the humans much less that pets. Luckily Mom always found a way to keep them well fed, and I'm sure they were a security blanket for her.

She is very worried about them being seperated, so please let's find them a forever home together!!

Contact me (@TheNascarKitty) on Twitter and/or @SaraBeth3394 for info.

Please send this email to anybody you can think of who's interested.
