Happy National Tabby Cat Day! 🐾😻

We’re celebrating one of the most recognizable cat patterns out: tabbies. You know them by that little “M” on their forehead, which honestly probably stands for “mischief,” “movement at 3 a.m.,” or “mine, obviously.”

Tabbies are fun and loveable! One minute they’re racing through the house like they’ve got important business, and the next they’re sprawled on you like they’ve been working a full shift and deserve compensation in treats and pets.

No two tabbies are the same. Some are sweet, some are chaos, and some somehow manage to be both in the same five minutes.

Give your tabby a little extra love today. They’ll accept it… on their terms, of course. 🐾🐾🐈

Happy National Kids and Pets Day! 🐶💛

Today is all about celebrating the joy pets bring to the children in their lives. They can help teach compassion, confidence, and responsibility from an early age.

Pets bring joy, but also require care and understanding. It’s up to adults to make sure those lessons happen safely. Supervision should always be part of every interaction. Let’s create homes where kids and pets can thrive together safely.🐕✨

Fun Fact Friday! 🎉

🐱Cats sleep an average of 12–16 hours a day, and some can even reach 18–20 hours, especially kittens and seniors. 🐾
🐱Most of their sleep, about 70–75%, is light, allowing them to wake up quickly when needed.
🐱They also tend to sleep more in cold or rainy weather, just like us on cozy, gloomy days. 🐱💤
