Manage episode 280165657 series 1918836
To start this episode, I’ll tell you another creature feature. Do you remember the part in the movie, The Wizard of OZ when Toto and Dorothy are swept away in their house by a tornado? If you think a dog being carried away is only fiction, wait till you hear this.
Then, I’ve got news. After a stay-at-home order, due to the pandemic, Rocket, the NutriSource Pet Food’s sponsored, M Health Fairview - University of Minnesota - Masonic Children’s Hospital dog, is back at his job - helping children and families again deal with all the aspects of a hospital stay. His partner and handler, Anna Dressel, tells the stories of how Rocket keeps surprising her with the profound ways he affects others, what he particularly excels at in helping children and all about his third birthday celebration.
What can you do to create good mental welfare for your cat? Follow the guideline: Don’t stimulate the emotions of RAGE, FEAR or GRIEF in them if you can help it and do stimulate SEEKING and PLAY as much as possible. These are core emotion systems in the brains of both you and your pets. Today, I’ll explain how FEAR affects cats and what you can do to keep your cat from feeling it so much.
