Christmas Day In Floofinsland

by Leave a Comment

It was Christmas Day and all through the land,

Floofins & Co. was out lending a hand.

 

With floofins great and small,

We cared for them all.

 

Furry, feathered, finned and scaled,

We took photos and left notes, detailed.

 

We fed, we walked, we tucked them in.

We played, medicated, even gave insulin.

 

While you, their pet parents, were away,

We stepped in to give them a good holiday.

 

Because to us they are like family.

Even if some of your relatives don’t agree.

 

So we kissed each and every one good night.

And wished them a holiday happy and bright.

 

To care for your floofins is our greatest joy.

It’s better than a BarkBox filled with toys.

 

Thank you for trusting us to care for your pet.

Our hearts are full when their needs are met.

 

Merry Christmas and have a safe trip home.

Good tidings to you, no matter where you roam.

 

Floofins & Co. is here for you,

Because we love your pet, almost as much as you do!

 

Happy Holidays!

Adopt a Senior Pet Month

by Leave a Comment

November is a month that I can really get behind on the pet event calendar. This month marks not only my favorite food holiday, Thanksgiving, but also the kick off of Adopt A Senior Pet Month. 

I often tell people that one of my favorite types of dogs are old ones. The golden years: full of naps on the rug in the sun; ambles about the neighborhood; and treats and tummy rubs. Yet, the cuddly cuteness of new kittens or puppies often overtakes us. How could it not?

But as you consider adding to your Floofins Family, don’t forget that some of the last animals to be adopted from shelters are the seniors. Sure, the little ones are squirmy and wiggly and beyond cute. But the soul in the eyes of a dog that has reached an age of wisdom comes with some great benefits.
