These treats are very thin strips of dried, jerky like treats. There are 3 types and are all made with Chicken Breast with vitamins for healthy eyes, skin and coat, mint and parsley for bad breath and the one above. They are definitely worth the money. They are $3.99 for 2 ounces but they last a long time.

I thought they also had a beef treat but I don't see it on their website.

I have given these to my own cats and the cats at the shelter. I would say that about 2 out of 60 cats didn't like the treats. Most cats take one sniff and can't get enough of them! They think it's good and it's good for them.

They also have treats for dogs! I don't have any experience with the doggie treats but I am sure they love them as much as the kitties love theirs!

Do your cats like them?  Do you notice a difference in their health?

Take a look for yourself on their website!

Snout Shaped Resuscitation Masks Help Cats Breathe Easier

Should you and your pet ever be caught in a fire, resuscitation masks are now available for your cat as well.

John V. Wood

Firefighters have long been hailed as heroes, braving fiery conditions to save lives.  Saving humans suffering from smoke inhalation is a well-practiced procedure, but what about your loving cat?

Because of animal physiology, human oxygen masks do not fit the snout properly, says Debra Bennetts, spokeswoman for the Best Friends Pet Cares Cause for Paws program. In 2005, there were over 40,000 animal deaths resulting from house fires, compared to only 4,000 human deaths. Humans know to leave a house when the smoke alarm goes off; animals usually get scared and hide.

Four ways to get your cat to drink more water.

Your cat needs water-probably more than it's drinking now. Here are some easy ways to get them to drink more.

1. If you give them wet food, put water in it. Wet food already has a higher moisture content than dry food but I always add water to it still-I have never had a cat turn it down. If you don't give them wet food, put some water from some water packed tuna into the water.
   
2. Increase the amount of bowls of water you have. Put them in different spots, some cats like to be able to choose where they drink.
3. Provide different types of bowls. Deep bowls, shallow bowls, glass, stainless steel, ceramic, etc.
   
4. Try moving water! Buy a fountain or let the faucet drip for a bit.
