Dr. Pet Mom Pet Parents Community

Pets Of Twitter 11/8/19 🐱 🐶 🐇 🦜

I spend most of my social media time on Twitter. Thankfully, I find lots of pet lovers out there!

For something different, I’d like to share some nice pet pics I found on Twitter…

Writing For Pets: How Am I Doing? 🤔

Animals are Mother Nature’s gift to the world. Animals bring us joy, make us laugh, cry, and feel human. They help us survive – giving is in their DNA.

For many reasons, I’m happy to discover my alter ego, Dr. Pet Mom. Behind the scenes, I’m reticent about my life. But when it comes to animals, I come out of the shadows.

My face lights up with an easy smile. It’s my natural reaction to animals. Coming out of the shadows also means writing a book to help animals. So how am I doing?

How To Change Bad Habits To Good Ones ☯

We all have our inner demons to contend with. Slowly and deliberately, I am working through mine. The latest demon was my bad eating habits.

I’ve been exercising plenty but not shedding any pounds. I knew it was because of my habit of late night snacking.

So I needed to drop the late night snacking. When I stopped, the pounds started coming off.

Why I Love My Cat, Oscar 😊

If you follow me on Twitter, you know that I am open about my anxiety and depression. This week my spouse Dr. Pet Mom, is away in ‘Frostbite Falls’ Minnesota doing some academic stuff.

Enter my cat, Oscar! He’s been great! He is very empathetic, knows when to purr and sit by my side. Thanks Oscar!

The story behind how we got Oscar is quite amazing: He is the result of some sad circumstances and God’s kindness…

Holiday Fun: Doggy Campgrounds 🏕️

Dogs love the great outdoors! Pet parents and their furry pets can now enjoy the outdoors safely together. Try a doggy campground designed for canines and their human caregivers.

You won’t find a description of a doggy campground in Wikipedia, but these safe doggy spaces are popping up around the country.

More Kudos For Dr. Pet Mom! 😎

Update: This week, Dr. Pet Mom received a thank you letter from the Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League of West Palm Beach, Florida.

They were grateful for Dr. Pet Mom’s kennel quilts donation. Below is the letter…

In a few weeks, it will be time to change the clocks again. Changing the time reminds me that the holiday season is right around the corner! It’s only October. But if you love shopping, you can find Black Friday and shop-early-for-Christmas sales in the stores this month.

I’m also thinking of other ways to make the holidays meaningful for my animal friends and pet parent community.

How to Fix Missing Incognito Mode Option in Google Chrome Browser Windows Taskbar Icon Right-click 💻

All of a sudden maybe one to two weeks ago, I no longer had the right-click option for the Google Chrome web browser incognito (private) mode on both my Windows 7 and 10 computers.

I tried unpinning Chrome from the Taskbar, then re-pinning. Nope, that did not fix it.

October Pet Awareness Days 🗓️

October feels like the start of the holiday season. The cool weather reminds us that fall is here. It’s not quite Autumn, the start of the seasonal change from summer to winter. October is also a great month for celebrating family pets and animals everywhere!

A list of October animal awareness days include:

For example, I was on social media and noticed that red meat was a topic of discussion. Here’s one of the headlines: Where’s The Beef? New Study Finds Red Meat Not Bad
