Look at this entitled dog owner with his perfectly behaved dog. Imagine feeling inconvenienced by being considerate to other dogs and dog owners. Bet he’s some rich white dude living in a pristine suburban neighborhood. #Dogs #Pets #ASPCA #PETA #NIMBY #Karen #Entitledment #Project2025 #Epstein

#ASPCA - #ColdWeather Safety Tips
"Exposure to winter’s dry, cold air and chilly rain, sleet and snow can cause chapped paws and itchy, flaking skin, but these aren’t the only discomforts pets can suffer. Winter walks can become downright dangerous if chemicals from ice-melting agents are licked off of bare paws. To help prevent cold weather dangers from affecting your pet’s health, check out our top 10 cold weather safety tips from our experts at the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center (APCC).
- Remember, if it’s too cold for you, it’s probably too cold for your pet, so keep your animals inside. If left outdoors, pets can freeze, become disoriented, lost, stolen, injured or killed. In addition, don’t leave pets alone in a car during cold weather, as cars can act as refrigerators that hold in the cold and cause animals to freeze to death.
- Keep your home humidified and be sure to towel dry your pet as soon as they come inside. Repeatedly going into the cold and then comin back into a warm home can cause itchy, flaking skin. Pay close attention to their feet and in-between their toes and remove any snow balls from between their foot pads to prevent and treat skin irritation in the winter.
- Massage petroleum jelly or other vet-approved paw protectants into paw pads before going outside to protect from salt and chemical agents. Booties can provide even more coverage and can also prevent sand and salt from getting lodged between bare toes and causing irritation. Use pet-friendly ice melts whenever possible.
- Never shave your dog down to the skin in winter. A longer coat will provide more warmth. If your dog is long-haired, simply trim them to minimize the clinging ice balls, salt crystals and de-icing chemicals that can dry their skin, and don’t neglect the hair between their toes. If your dog is short-haired, consider getting them a coat or sweater with a high collar or turtleneck with coverage from the base of the tail to the belly.
- After each walk, make sure to wash and dry your pet's feet and stomach to remove ice, salt and chemicals. Don't forget to check for cracks in paw pads or redness between the toes. You may also want to bring a towel on long walks to clean off stinging, irritated paws.
- Bathe your pets as little as possible during cold spells. Washing too often can remove essential oils and increase the chance of developing dry, flaky skin. If your pooch must be bathed, ask your vet to recommend a moisturizing shampoo and/or rinse.
- Thoroughly clean up any anitfreeze spills. Like coolant, antifreeze is a lethal for dogs and cats. Be sure to thoroughly clean up any spills from your vehicle, and consider using products that contain propylene glycol rather than ethylene glycol. Additionally, cold weather chemicals like #IceMelts can be dangerous when ingested, so always be mindful and keep chemicals up and out of paws' reach.
- Feed your pet a little extra in the winter months. Pets burn extra energy by trying to stay warm in wintertime. Feeding them a little bit more can provide much-needed calories, and making sure they have plenty of water to drink will help keep them well-hydrated and their skin less dry.
- Make sure your companion animal has a warm place to sleep, off the floor and away from all drafts. A cozy dog or cat bed with a warm blanket or pillow is perfect.
- Never let your dog off leash on snow or ice, especially during a snowstorm. Dogs can lose their scent in the snow and easily become lost. More dogs are lost during the winter than during any other season, so make sure your dog always wears an ID tag.Be sure to keep these tips top of mind this winter so that you and your furry friends can stay warm, cozy and safe.
If you think your pet may have ingested antifreeze or another potential toxin, contact your veterinarian or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435 immediately."

ASPCA: #BirdFlu and Cats: What You Need to Know
March 14, 2025
"Cats are very susceptible to H5N1 infection, but at this time the overall risk for exposure and infection is believed to be low. Dogs appear less susceptible to the current H5N1 strain, though this could evolve.
"Cats who are most at risk include those who:
- Consume unpasteurized dairy products or raw or undercooked poultry
- Are exposed to sick or deceased wild birds, particularly waterfowl like geese and ducks
- Come in contact with poultry or dairy cows on farms or in backyard flocks and those in contact with infected people or animals"You can limit the risk of exposure and infection by keeping cats indoors or in enclosed '#catios.' Also, avoid feeding unpasteurized dairy products or raw or undercooked poultry (chicken, turkey and duck). This includes raw diets. Prevent your cats from coming in contact with sick or deceased wild birds, particularly waterfowl such as geese and ducks, and prevent contact with dairy cows or poultry.
"Monitor your cat for signs of H5N1 infection, which include coughing, sneezing, nasal discharge, trouble breathing, lethargy, disorientation, trouble walking and sudden onset of severe disease or death without prior signs of illness or injury.
"One last note: Experts’ understanding of #H5N1 avian influenza is continually evolving and recommendations may change as we learn more. Your veterinarian is your best resource. Contact them if you have questions about your cat’s health or if you suspect illness."

Prevent your cats from coming in contact with sick or deceased wild birds, particularly waterfowl such as geese and ducks, and prevent contact with dairy cows or poultry.
"Monitor your cat for signs of H5N1 infection, which include coughing, sneezing, nasal discharge, trouble breathing, lethargy, disorientation, trouble walking and sudden onset of severe disease or death without prior signs of illness or injury.
"One last note: Experts’ understanding of #H5N1 avian influenza is continually evolving and recommendations may change as we learn more. Your veterinarian is your best resource. Contact them if you have questions about your cat’s health or if you suspect illness."

ASPCA: #BirdFlu and Cats: What You Need to Know
March 14, 2025
"Cats are very susceptible to H5N1 infection, but at this time the overall risk for exposure and infection is believed to be low. Dogs appear less susceptible to the current H5N1 strain, though this could evolve.
"Cats who are most at risk include those who:
- Consume unpasteurized dairy products or raw or undercooked poultry
- Are exposed to sick or deceased wild birds, particularly waterfowl like geese and ducks
- Come in contact with poultry or dairy cows on farms or in backyard flocks and those in contact with infected people or animals"You can limit the risk of exposure and infection by keeping cats indoors or in enclosed '#catios.' Also, avoid feeding unpasteurized dairy products or raw or undercooked poultry (chicken, turkey and duck). This includes raw diets. Prevent your cats from coming in contact with sick or deceased wild birds, particularly waterfowl such as geese and ducks, and prevent contact with dairy cows or poultry.
"Monitor your cat for signs of H5N1 infection, which include coughing, sneezing, nasal discharge, trouble breathing, lethargy, disorientation, trouble walking and sudden onset of severe disease or death without prior signs of illness or injury.

#ASPCA should really rethink both its message and its mission. While donating to feed starving animals is admirable, it’s a band-aid for the core issue! What is being done to stop animal abuse and cruelty? Do they aggressively pursue puppy mills? Hoarding situations? Do they actively advocate for animal rights at Federal, State, and Local levels?
