We are celebrating Tongue Out Tuesday with a snapshot compilation of our wonderful furry friends from all over Thousand Oaks, Westlake Village, and our beautiful surrounding neighborhoods. Whether we caught these expressions while out enjoying the sunshine on a dog walk or sharing quiet cuddles during a cozy cat sitting visit, these cuties always know exactly how to make us laugh.

​We are so grateful to the local families throughout the area who trust True Friends Pet Care to keep their pets happy, safe, and loved every single day.

The secret to Dunkin’s heart? Shredded chicken! 🍗✨

​Watching Dunkin enjoy his snack is the highlight of our day! But did you know that plain, shredded chicken breast isn't just tasty—it’s actually a fantastic nutritional boost for cats?

​At True Friends Pet Care, we’re all about those healthy extras. However, it’s important to remember: chicken should be used as a treat or a topper, not a replacement for their regular balanced cat food. # # # ✨ The Benefits of a Chicken "Side Dish":

​High-Quality Lean Protein: Helps maintain lean muscle mass and provides essential energy.

​Taurine Boost: Contains amino acids vital for heart and eye health.

​High Palatability: Perfect for encouraging picky eaters to finish their main meal!

​Easy Digestion: Gentle on the stomach for cats who need a bland, high-protein snack.

​⚠️ A Note on Balance

​While chicken is great, it doesn't contain all the vitamins and minerals a cat needs to thrive long-term. To keep your kitty healthy:

​The 10% Rule: Treats (like chicken) should make up no more than 10% of your cat’s daily calories.

​Keep it Plain: No salt, garlic, onions, or oils—just pure, cooked chicken!

​Supplement Only: Always serve alongside their veterinarian-approved main diet.

Beat the heat without losing the beat! 🐾🔥
​Thousand Oaks is hitting 101°C today, but at True Friends Pet Care, the fun doesn't stop just because the sidewalk is sizzling. We’ve moved the party indoors to keep our furry friends cool, safe, and completely entertained.
​Why Indoor Play Matters Today:
​Paws off the pavement: Protecting those sensitive pads from the scorching heat.
​AC & Enrichment: High-energy games in a climate-controlled environment.
​Safety First: Preventing heat exhaustion while burning off that puppy energy.
​Professional Care Tip: If it's too hot for the back of your hand on the asphalt, it’s too hot for their paws!
​Stay cool, stay hydrated, and stay playful! 🐶❄️

The perfect sky to end a day of "Sniffaries."
Did you know that 15 minutes of structured sniffing can be more tiring for a dog than a 30-minute run? We love taking advantage of the cooler evening air to let your pups explore the world through their noses
