🌎🦇 TODAY is WORLD RABIES DAY.

And 20 years after the first World Rabies Day, rabies is STILL a threat.

This is why keeping our pets vaccinated matters. Rabies vaccination doesn't just protect our PETS it protects PEOPLE, especially children!

Check out my vaccine video for more on rabies, vaccines—and yes, ZOMBIES. 🧟

🐶 Ever tell your dog “NO” and watch them seriously contemplate their life choices? 😂

Turns out, SELF-CONTROL is actual brain work. Researchers found dogs show brain activity similar to humans when resisting something they REALLY want. And that matters with FOOD.

If your dog struggles to say “no” to treats, table scraps or that unattended sandwich... don't make weight control their job--THEY have the self-control!

WE control the calories.

So—what food makes your dog lose ALL self-control? 😂

🐱 WE HAVE A NEW CAT SPECIES!

For the first time in more than 100 YEARS, scientists have named a new living wild cat species.

Meet the TILCAYO (Leopardus tilcayo) a tiny spotted wild cat from Bolivia that weighs only about 3 POUNDS and looks like a typical house gray tabby we all know and ❤️!

And while it's “new” to science, its genetic lineage goes back about 1.4 MILLION YEARS.

Now the important scientific question... Do they get HAIRBALLS too? 😂

🐶 Your dog's arthritis may NOT be “just arthritis.”

A study of more than 50,000 dogs found that dogs with 5+ chronic conditions were MORE THAN TWICE as likely to die as dogs with only one.

Why? Health problems can STACK.

Arthritis → less activity → weight gain → MORE stress on painful joints.
One condition can make another harder to manage.

The takeaway? Don't treat your dog's health problems like separate boxes—especially as they get older.

Managing the WHOLE dog matters. ❤️

🧟 What does RABIES have to do with ZOMBIES?

Rabies causes dramatic neurologic and behavioral changes and may have helped inspire some zombie mythology.

RIGHT now, the CDC is warning about an INCREASE IN RABIES exposures: www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/rabies-exposure…

Once symptoms appear, rabies is almost always FATAL 👉 THIS is why we vaccinate our pets against rabies. This isn't about “over-vaccinating” pets. Rabies vaccination protects PETS AND PEOPLE!

🎥 Check out my vaccine video to learn more about rabies, ZOMBIES, and why your pet's vaccines matter!

🐾 Is your SENIOR PET just getting older… or is something else going on?

Changes like staring at walls, wandering at night, getting “stuck” in corners, accidents in the house, or seeming confused can sometimes be signs of cognitive decline in aging dogs and cats.

Here's a helpful article on what pet owners should watch for and ways we can support our pets as they age: stories.tamu.edu/news/2026/09/03/dementia-in-aging…

Have you noticed any changes in your senior pet that you originally thought were “just old age”? Future Video on this!

🐾 One FLEA bite can be a BIG deal 🚨!

For pets with flea allergy dermatitis, it doesn’t take a full-blown flea infestation to cause intense itching and skin problems.

The frustrating part: you may not even SEE fleas on your pet.

Texas A&M has a great article explaining flea allergy dermatitis and why consistent flea control matters: vetmed.tamu.edu/news/pet-talk/fleas-flea-allergy-d…

And if you’re wondering why flea prevention matters or why treating fleas for just one month often isn’t enough, check out my RELATED VIDEO on flea prevention below. 👇

👇 Go count your cat’s toes. Bonus beans or standard issue? 😂
