Where is Your Mother?

I'm Lost!

This baby raccoon was found alone by some of my friends at their home. The mother was no where around so they tried to feed it. It wouldn't eat which was no surprise. After a while, they felt like it was best to let it go in the woods hoping it would find the mother. 

Apparently, parents in the animal kingdom are just as stressed out as us humans when it comes to parenting these days. Lately, it has been many cases in the news of parents leaving toddlers behind. The parents come back saying they were so focused on other things until the child was forgotten. On the other hand, you have a mama bear trying to get her cub out someone's garage because he thinks the garage is way more cooler then a tree. Wowzers!

Well, it seems to be getting pretty stressful for animals too. I can see why parents in the wild stress because they have to worry about shortages on food, finding a patch of woods to live in,and they may go out to grab a berry or some worms for the kids to return to a shopping mall or subdivision instead of their home.

Keep Pets Cool on Hot Days

The dog days of summer are here! It has been a massive heat wave across the south region of our country these past few days. The heat is not only dangerous for us but really dangerous for our pets. A few things to remember:

1.Walk your pet early in the mornings or after sun down.

2. Make sure your pet gets plenty of water.

3. Keep pets inside during the hottest part of the day. 

More fun ways to keep your pet cool is by giving them ice or frozen treats. Also, add ice cubes to their water.  It's fun for your pet to eat and they will stay cool.
