No questions asked: cancer is a 5-letter word no pet owner wants to hear. And as pets are living longer, diseases, like cancer, that come along with aging, can occur. National Pet Cancer Awareness month was established to inform the public on prevention, what to look for, and treatment of cancer in pets. 

This week marks Animal Shelter Appreciation Week – a time to recognize the care that shelters and rescues provide to abandoned and stray animals, and recognize the dedicated people who support these organizations.. Animal shelters and rescues play an important role in the communities they serve. They provide a safe haven for animals until a forever home can be found. 

Trick or treat! Halloween is here again! Costumes are picked, neighborhood routes are planned, and candy favorites are much anticipated! Halloween is a magical time of year for children (and those young at heart), but what about your pets?
