Dr. Mac loves interactive feeders which is why she was so excited to try out the Doc and Phoebe Indoor Hunting Feeder for her previously feral cat, Matilda We keep our Oakville cats indoors to keep them safe from the potential dangers of the great outdoors. However, this sedentary lifestyle can lead to weight gain, bad behavior, boredom and abnormal sleeping patterns. What if you could find a way to:... Entertain your cat Encourage your cat to exercise. Make your cat beg less for food. Improve some of your cat's antisocial behavior. Stop your cat from eating their food too quickly. These little feeding mice turn meal time into playtime, allowing you to feed your cat like the tiger she really is.

We LOVE this cat carrier. Allows you to place your cat on the tray and gently slide her into the carrier. Allows you to easily pick up your cat. No reaching to the back of the carrier which can be intimidating to your feline friend. We can perform your cat’s exam in this carrier! This gives your cat the option of staying in her carrier if that’s where they feel most comfortable. ... This carrier is an excellent option for all cats and could greatly reduce some of the FAS; fear, anxiety and stress, some cats (and their owners) experience while travelling to the vet. #fearfree #fearfreepets #macvets #veterinarian #drmac #vetlife #oakville #fearfreepets #fearfreecertifiedpractice #community #pets #dogs #cats #petsofinstagram #dogsofoakville #oakvillevet #burlingtonvet #speers #fourthline #dogsofinsta #catsofinsta

Exercise is great for both you and your pet's physical and mental health. This #WalkYourDogMonth, get outside and spend some extra time walking with your pup to get your heart pumping and blood flowing.

It’s the little things that can make a big difference. Positive Reinforcement and a distraction. Gentle approach. Utilizing the touch gradient, before the injection, Dr Mac touches the area she will administer the vaccine with her hand and gradually increases the level of contact before finally inserting the needle. ... The result. Is a happy Willie! #fearfree #fearfreepets #rescue #rescuedogsofinstagram #macvets #veterinarian #drmac #vetlife #oakville #fearfreepets #fearfreecertifiedpractice #community #pets #dogs #cats #petsofinstagram #dogsofoakville #oakvillevet #burlingtonvet #speers #fourthline #dogsofinsta #catsofinsta

Kiwi was a little nervous at the start of his visit. After a few minutes of pheromones and gentle pets he really started to come out of his shell! He started playing, asking for cuddles and eating treats.

Lots of people often have trouble visualizing what their overweight animals should look like at a pet weight. Veterinarians will give various descriptions to ow...ners, such as how there should be a tuck in the waist visible from both the top down and from the side profile for many breeds. Here are some outlined photos of overweight dogs to show what a rough acceptable weight would look like on them. Every breed is unique and will have different attributes for their build and body style depending on their lineage.

Happy Meow-day from Elphie! Elphie is a little Tortiseshell kitten, isnt she oh so photogenic!? Fun Fact Did you know that if you ever see a tortoiseshell cat, it is most definitely a female? The female sex chromosome (X) carries the gene for the orange or black coat colors. With two X chromosomes, females can have both orange and black coloring in their fur which gives them that tortoiseshell fur. Meanwhile males can only have either or colors, meaning that all torto...iseshell cats are female! "Torties" also known as "Naughty Torties" are best nown as the divas of the cat world with their unique multicolor fur. They are known for being sassy, vocal felines who love their owners. Do you have a "Tortie" kitty at home? Does your kitty live up to the Tortie reputation? #kitten #tortoiseshellcat #meowdel #macvets #veterinarian #drmac #vetlife #oakville #fearfreepets #fearfreecertifiedpractice #pets #dogs #cats #petsofinstagram #dogsofoakville #oakvillevet #burlingtonvet #speers #fourthline #dogsofinsta #catsofinsta
