Transporting your pet in your car doesn't have to be stressful, and by following a few of these tips, you can ensure that both you and your pet are safe and comfortable for the journey. 

It's that time of year when the weather begins to turn: darker evenings, rainy showers, storms and the encroaching cold. Us humans aren't the only ones who notice the changing seasons; our pets are naturally tuned into their surroundings too. During the transitional weather, you may notice your pet behaving differently as a response. Some pets (cats and dogs in particular) can become lethargic, more anxious, or withdrawn. Here's what to look out for and how you can help minimise the mood swings your pet experiences during this time. 

Often deemed 'little bakers', making biscuits, bread, dough - you name it, cats will often be seen repetitively kneading their paws upon soft or cushiony surfaces. But why do cats knead in this way? What purpose does kneading serve? There are some simple explanations as to why your cat might engage in this behaviour. 

Now that the days are getting hotter as we move into summer, it is more important than ever to ensure that your pets stay hydrated throughout the day. Dehydration can be extremely harmful to pets if left untreated, and can disrupt their bodily functions and cause discomfort. So how can you make sure your dog or cat stays hydrated as temperatures soar? And what are some key signs of dehydration? 

Meows, chirps, trills and purrs - if you have a cat, you’ll likely recognise their language and feel like you understand what they need. A cat’s meow can be adorable, but what does it mean if your cat won’t stop meowing? Is it a sign that something is wrong? Is it a sign that your cat is spoilt? And how do you get them to stop? Here we discuss some of the reasons why your cat might be incessant with their cries, and what you should do.
