Halloween's just 10 days away, do you know what you're going to wear? Now, I've always wanted to choose a costume linked to my pet ever since the year I thought it'd be awesome if we went to a big NYC Dog Parade as Lilo and Stitch (after all, I had the long hair and North def. has the huge ears).
On a similar note, can you think of fun costume duos you could link with your furry friend. Consider famous costars – you as Ariel and Fido as Sebastian – or something a touch more outside the box like Oscar the Grouch seen here with a trash collector. Suggest your ideas in the comments below and I'll pick several to reveal next week!
Although Myko doesn't really like boating (or water for that matter), he sucked it up, threw on his life jacket, and geared up for a day of fun. But once on the boat? He spent his time under mama's seat with a towel over his head. Ahh well, at least he got onboard!
Congrats to Myko and Wren for being chosen as our Pet Pic of the Day! Be sure to submit your photos to our Pet Pics group – you may see your furry pal on the pages of PetSugar!
A majority of you can agree that these guys are pretty cute, despite their given name. I'm guessing all furry creatures that look kinda like teddy bears would be cute on principal. But do you know anything else about the sloth . . . other than it (obviously) hangs from trees?
Take my quiz and see how much you know about this mammal. I bet you can even find some answers hidden within the pages of PetSugar!
Tunnels, hurdles, ramps and ropes, feline agility is an up-and-coming sport for many cat lovers to teach furry friends. (Refresh your memory on this activity here.) I'm not certain I've ever met a cat that's completed a course, but I'd love to hear from you! Would your kitties walk right up or walk the other way?
Some pups – mine included – can eat (and eat and eat) without ever seeming to get a full belly. And, as you can see, North's already a big fan of pumpkin. Adding one to the other, and I wanted to share yet another use for this can o' goodness – weight loss. If your pup's a touch overweight (maybe it's those puppy-dog eyes pleading for another peanut butter yum), consider adding some pumpkin to his normal meal plan. Substitute pure, canned pumpkin (not pie filling) for one-third of your pet's diet. This roughage has a similar texture to canned dog food and happens to be vitamin-filled and super filling, too.
I know many pups love doing agility and obstacle runs, but who knew kitties could do them, too? The big CFA-Iams Cat Championship held over the weekend at Madison Square Garden featured this event in addition to an adoption area and breed showcase and judging. What exactly comprises a cat course? Find out in this slideshow.
