Microchipping Can Save Your Pet’s Life 💻

July is National Lost Pet Prevention Month. This week’s blog is a re-post tidbit to microchip your pet to keep them safe.

My daily walks take me through a maze of different neighborhoods, including mansions, low-income and middle income homes. But I noticed some strange things in my neighborhood: An uptick in posters of missing pets.

It’s strange because I rarely see these posters. I noticed a poster for an orange cat named Paws, missing for a few weeks. Paws’ poster is stapled to many telephone poles around town

July is Lost Pet Prevention Month 🔍

July is in full swing. Pets and pet parents are spending more time outside. This month is about keeping a pet first aid kit for home and travel. July is also Lost Pet Prevention Month.

You’re a good pet parent and try to keep your pet safe and away from danger. But sometimes a cat jumps the fence. Sometimes a dog escapes through an open door.

A lost pet can be a pet parent’s worst nightmare.

Ten Years Later: My Passion For Animals and My PhD 👩🏾‍🎓

2023 was the year I tossed out my plethora of research materials saved for my dissertation. I was required to retain records from research papers, interview tapes, spreadsheets, questionnaire result, case studies, handouts, and scholarly journals until five years after my published dissertation.

Ten years last month, I finished my PhD. Tossing out old documents and dated research papers was a relief.

And I’m also reminded that my late rescue kitty, Oscar was there to help me through the dissertation process. As another “Thank You” to him and all my furry friends, I’m reposting my blog about my passion for animals and my PhD. Enjoy!
