  61. <p>Dogs love food and they don’t seem to be too discerning when it comes to what they chow down on. Most owners have wondered at some point if their dog has eaten something that they shouldn’t have. So what is acceptable, and what is  not acceptable for a dog to  eat? Just because humans can safely consume a food, it doesn’t mean that their furry counterparts can. For example, humans can eat chocolate, which is toxic to dogs.</p>
  62. <p>There is little question about it, dogs love peanut butter! So, is peanut butter good for dogs? Can dogs eat peanut butter crackers? What about the other ingredients in peanut butter crackers?</p>
  63. <p>The bottom line is that<strong> yes, certain peanut butter crackers can be offered to your pup as an occasional snack or treat. However, there are a few caveats and considerations to make note of, and we have laid everything out for you here.</strong></p>

  69. <h2><span id="Feeding_Peanut_Butter_Crackers_to_Your_Dog">Feeding Peanut Butter Crackers to Your Dog</span></h2>
  70. <p>Deciding whether to feed peanut butter crackers to your dog depends on the ingredients in the crackers. If the peanut butter crackers are made specifically for dogs, it should be fine to offer them as occasional snacks and treats, as they are formulated to be safe for dogs to eat.</p>
  71. <p>However, if these are human peanut butter crackers, you’ll need to carefully read the ingredients list to ensure that there is nothing toxic for dogs. Overall, though, it’s best to simply avoid giving your pup any peanut butter crackers, or other treats that are produced for human consumption.</p>
  72. <p>If your dog does consume one of your peanut butter crackers, check the ingredients immediately.  If the crackers are free of xylitol, then your pup will most likely be absolutely fine.  Just keep an eye out for any gastrointestinal signs such as vomiting or diarrhea.  Unless your dog has eaten several crackers, they are unlikely to have any serious side effects. If your dog eats a whole package of peanut butter crackers meant for humans, call your vet for expert insight.</p>

  75. <p>The main ingredient of peanut butter crackers is peanut butter, which, as long as it doesn’t contain xylitol (see risks of feeding peanut butter, below) is not toxic to dogs. <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.dogster.com/dog-nutrition/best-peanut-butter-for-dogs">Peanut butter can even provide nutrients</a> that lend to a healthy mind and body, such as vitamins B and E.  However, many brands of peanut butter also contain added sugar, salt and certain fats that, while not toxic, are not good in large amounts. This is especially true if your dog suffers from certain health conditions such as kidney disease or pancreatitis. It is always best to check the ingredients with your veterinarian to ensure it is acceptable for your pet.</p>
  76. <p>Some of the beneficial components of peanut butter are listed below:</p>

  103. <p class="p1">Giving your pup a small amount of peanut butter as an occasional treat is absolutely fine, and your pup will undoubtedly lick their lips and thank you for their tasty treat!  It is important, however, to always check the ingredients of the peanut butter you buy and look for all-natural, unsalted peanut butter that lists peanuts as its only ingredient.</p>
  104. <h2><span id="Risks_of_Feeding_Peanut_Butter_to_Your_Dog">Risks of Feeding Peanut Butter to Your Dog</span></h2>
  105. <p>As mentioned above, there are a few downsides to consider when it comes to giving peanut butter to your dog as a snack or a treat. One is whether the peanut butter has been sweetened and if so, what sweetener has been used. Natural peanut butter contains no extra sweeteners. Some peanut butter brands add real sugar or honey. Others contain an artificial sweetener called xylitol. Xylitol is  extremely toxic to dogs and should be avoided at all costs. Even in small doses, xylitol can induce hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), seizures, and liver failure in canines. This is why we recommend that you carefully read the ingredients list before offering peanut butter to your pup.</p>
  106. <p>Also, peanut butter contains a large amount of healthy mono-unsaturated fat as well as peanut or palm oils, so can contribute to weight gain and problems like obesity, diabetes, heart disease and mobility issues.</p>

  109. <p>If you have accidentally fed your dog peanut butter that you later realize contains xylitol, it is vital that <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.dogster.com/ask-the-vet/when-to-take-dog-to-vet">you visit your veterinarian as an emergency</a>.  Aggressive treatment from a veterinarian is essential to reduce the effects of toxicity, and the sooner you can get your dog to the vet, the better chance your pooch will recover.</p>

  116. <p>If you want to avoid all the confusion but don’t want to deprive your pup of the taste and texture of peanut butter, you can make your own peanut butter at home by simply grinding peanuts in a food processor.  Make sure that the peanuts you use are from a reputable source and fit for human consumption.  This is to avoid any risk of the Aspergillus fungus that can be found on peanuts grown in the wild.</p>
  117. <p>Once you’ve made your peanut butter, here are a few homemade options to consider.  You can easily put these together in the comfort of your own kitchen.</p>
  118. <div class="su-list" style="margin-left:0px">

  132. <p>Peanut butter crackers made especially for dogs are safe in moderation.  There are a number of beneficial ingredients in peanut butter, so it certainly doesn’t have to be struck off the list, but it should be given as a treat and not an everyday staple. Making your own peanut butter treats avoids the confusion of the additives in commercial peanut butters, and is just as tasty.  However, if you are using commercially available peanut butter, make sure you check the ingredients to avoid extra salt, sugar and sweetener (especially xylitol!)</p>

  165. <p>Progress has been slow in the studio this week, but I feel like things are about to start happening! My main goal this weekend is to get the resin petri wall finished. I showed y’all my plan for this wall next to my desk earlier this week (<a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.addicted2decorating.com/my-plan-for-a-resin-petri-art-wall-in-the-studio.html">you can read the details here</a>), but my original plan was to use 5″ x 5″ gallery wrapped canvases. Well, in order to have enough for my art installation (it makes me feel important to call it an “art installation” <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.0.3/72x72/1f600.png" alt="😀" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> ), the canvases would cost me about $190. </p>
  166. <p>I don’t think that’s a terrible price for something that’s going to have such a big, colorful impact in the room, but I also wasn’t completely sold on how the canvases looked. They looked a bit too thick for my taste, so I went in search of something else that would work. I really wanted to avoid having to DIY 45 frames if I could. </p>
  167. <div class="wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained">
  168. <div class="wp-block-group__inner-container">
  169. <p>And I think that these are going to look great! I’m going to paint them all white before I mount the resin discs on them. </p>

  175. <p>You can see how nice this thickness is. It’s about half the thickness of the wrapped canvases, but with the added thickness of the resin disc, I think it’s perfect. </p>

  183. <p>So now that I have everything I need for that project, my main goal this weekend is to get that wall finished, which also includes getting the trim (baseboards) caulked and painted.</p>

  186. <p>But also, another very exciting package is arriving today for the big, blank wall, and I’m so excited about it! So I’m hoping that I can make some progress on that wall as well. </p>

  199. <p>But before I could have it printed again, a very kind and generous reader contacted me and said that she could have it printed for me at her work, and she had the capability to print it really big! Of course, that intrigued me, but I couldn’t think of where to put a really big print like that. </p>
  200. <div class="wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained">
  201. <div class="wp-block-group__inner-container">
  202. <p>So it took a while, and a few back and forth email exchanges, but I finally came up with a plan. She had it printed 52″W x 78″H, and it’s arriving today! I’m so unbelievably excited about it. I can’t wait to see it, and then I’ll need to figure out how to mount it, frame it, and hang it on the wall. But here’s the overall plan for the big, blank wall now. </p>

  204. </div>
  205. </div>
  206. <p>Because of the placement of the outlet and the size of the big calendar, the landscape design will go on the left side of the wall. It’s the perfect space for it. And then the calendar will go on the right side. That will still leave plenty of room for the TV (y’all convinced me to keep a TV in the plan for the wall), and then I’ll add some very simple shelves under the TV. I have three different ideas for the shelves. They won’t really be display shelves like the ones in the breakfast room where I’ve displayed colorful artwork. They’ll be more utilitarian, but the end result will be lots of color. But I’ll wait to share those details when it’s finished. I’m excited to see how much I can get done this weekend! </p>

  250. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">About The Meal Plan</h2>
  251. <p>If you’re new to my meal plans, I’ve been sharing these free, 7-day flexible healthy meal plans (you can see my previous <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.skinnytaste.com/meal-plans/" data-wpel-link="internal">meal plans</a> here) that are meant as a guide, with <strong>plenty of wiggle room</strong> for you to <strong>add more food</strong>, coffee, beverages, fruits, <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" class="tasty-link" data-tasty-links-no-disclosure="" href="https://www.skinnytaste.com/recipes/snacks/" data-wpel-link="internal">snacks</a>, <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" class="tasty-link" data-tasty-links-no-disclosure="" href="https://www.skinnytaste.com/recipes/dessert/" data-wpel-link="internal">dessert</a>, wine, etc. or swap recipes out for meals you prefer, you can search for <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.skinnytaste.com/recipes/" data-wpel-link="internal">recipes</a> by course in the <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.skinnytaste.com/recipes/" data-wpel-link="internal">index</a>. Depending on your goals, you should aim for at least 1500 calories* per day. There’s no one size fits all, this will range by your goals, your age, weight, etc.</p>
  252. <p>There’s also a precise, organized grocery list that will make grocery shopping so much easier and much less stressful. Save you money and time. You’ll dine out less often, waste less food and you’ll have everything you need on hand to help keep you on track.</p>
  253. <p>Lastly, if you’re on Facebook join my <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1934885496754505/" data-wpel-link="external">Skinnytaste Facebook Community</a> where everyone’s sharing photos of recipes they are making, you can join here.

  530. <p>As a seasoned traveler who has navigated the complexities of staying connected abroad, I was intrigued by the prospects of the <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://alosim.com/?_ef_transaction_id=&amp;oid=9&amp;affid=384">aloSIM eSIM</a>. I’ve tested a few different eSIM providers now, and I feature aloSIM in my list of the <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.pommietravels.com/best-esim-providers-for-travel/" class="ek-link">best eSIM providers for travel</a>.</p>
  531. <p>In this aloSIM review I’ll provide a more detailed breakdown of what aloSIM offers, my experience of purchasing an eSIM with them, and how the company compares to other providers.</p>
  532. <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-s-an-esim"><strong>What’s an eSIM?</strong></h2>
  533. <p>In case you’re not familiar with eSIM – it stands for “embedded SIM”. Basically it’s the digital equivalent of a physical SIM card and it’s directly embedded into your phone. The eSIM is re-programmable so essentially you can swap out plans whenever you like.</p>
  534. <p>The latest Apple iPhone models have no physical SIM card slot and instead rely purely on eSIM. The iPhone 15 is capable of storing up to eight eSIM profiles and you can have two eSIMs activated at any one time.</p>
  535. <p>What’s great about eSIM is that they can be purchased, installed and activated on a device from anywhere, without needing to visit a mobile store or kiosk. So you can install an eSIM for the country you’re visiting before you even set foot on the plane.</p>
  536. <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-is-alosim"><strong>What is aloSIM?</strong></h2>
  537. <p><a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://alosim.com/?_ef_transaction_id=&amp;oid=9&amp;affid=384">aloSIM</a> is an Ottawa-based company that offers customers the ability to purchase mobile data packages in destinations all over the globe. The company was founded in 2022 and is part of AffinityClick Inc., which also owns<a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://hushed.com/"> </a><a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://promo.hushed.com/lp/lifetime-3?oid=14&amp;affid=384">Hushed</a> – a digital service that allows users to purchase temporary or secondary phone numbers for calling and texting.</p>
  538. <p>aloSIM is more than just a SIM card – it’s a digital solution to your international data woes. Servicing over 175 countries directly from your phone, it cuts out the hassle of physical SIM cards and is managed conveniently through an app. This is truly a game-changer, eliminating the need to locate stores or struggle with language barriers for phone plans.</p>

Select between comprehensive regional plans and specific country plans to stay connected, wherever you roam.</p>
  550. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-instant-activation-amp-eco-friendly"><strong>Instant Activation &amp; Eco-Friendly</strong></h3>
  551. <p>An eSIM eliminates the need for physical SIMs, allowing you to select, install, and activate your plan in advance, ensuring immediate connectivity upon arrival.

  569. <p>aloSIM’s wide-ranging coverage is impressive, offering single-country or regional plans designed to meet the needs of any traveler.</p>
  570. <p>If you’re traveling to Ireland, for example, you can get 1GB of data for $4.50, 3GB of data for $9, 10GB of data for $22 and 20GB of data for $32.</p>
  571. <p>aloSIM also offers regional plans, so if you’re going to say, Sweden and Norway, you could get a Scandinavia eSIM. This eSIM costs $7 for 1GB, $14 for 3GB, $21 for 5GB or $32 for 10GB.</p>
  572. <p>What I really like about aloSIM is that the packages are quite simple. They’re data only plans, ranging from 1GB to 20GB.</p>
  573. <p>Just make sure to check the validity period of each SIM. The smaller data packages tend to have validity periods of 7 or 15 days, while the larger data packages have a validity period of 30 days. You’ll need to make sure the validity period covers the duration of your entire trip.</p>
  574. <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-free-phone-number"><strong>Free Phone Number</strong></h2>
  575. <p>What’s cool about aloSIM is that your purchase comes with a free international phone number from Hushed that works over Wi-Fi or data. You’ll be given free credits to start off (about 30 calling minutes or 50 texts) and then you can add more if needed.</p>
  576. <p>To get your Hushed number:</p>
  577. <ul>
  578. <li><strong>Step 1</strong><strong><br /></strong>Buy aloSIM data and accept the free offer</li>
  579. <li><strong>Step 2</strong><strong><br /></strong>Check your email for redemption instructions</li>
  580. <li><strong>Step 3</strong><strong><br /></strong>Download the Hushed app and choose a number</li>
  581. </ul>
  582. <p>It’s important to note that this is not a local number, it’s a number with a US or Canada area code. The number lasts as long as the validity of your data plan and is a fully international plan that can call or text anywhere in the world.</p>
  583. <p><strong>How Does aloSIM Compare to Other Providers?</strong></p>
  584. <p>I appreciate aloSIM’s transparent pricing, there are no hidden fees or bill shocks. With prices starting at $4.50 for 1GB of data, this is on par with other providers like Airalo.</p>
  585. <p>One thing I did notice is that the data plans only go up to 20GB. If you’re a really heavy user, you can find larger data plans up to 30GB through the SimOptions marketplace and some other providers. Holafly offers unlimited data plans, although the prices are a little pricier.</p>
  586. <p>It’s always best to check how much data you usually use and plan accordingly. You can usually check this info on your regular phone bill with your main carrier.</p>
  587. <p>What’s nice about aloSIM is that you can get a free number through sister company Hushed whenever you make an eSIM purchase. While it’s not technically a local number since it has a United States or Canada area code, it is a fully international plan that can make calls or texts to anywhere in the world. </p>
  588. <p>If your primary cell phone plan in your home country comes with international calling, then this may not be needed – make sure to check with your main carrier to see what your plan includes. </p>
  589. <p>Some eSIM providers only offer data only with no calls or texts, while some offer packages with a local number and calls and texts included. Always consider your needs and whether you’ll need a local number in addition to data. Most travelers won’t need one, as you can usually make calls to friends and family through Whatsapp and iMessage. However, if you think you might need a local number for sign-up forms, calling landlines and receiving 2FA codes, then you may want to consider a plan with a local number.</p>
  590. <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-final-verdict"><strong>Final Verdict</strong></h2>
  591. <p>aloSIM stands out as practical, dependable, and refreshingly uncomplicated. For travelers and digital nomads who prioritize staying connected without the fuss, aloSIM presents an excellent service that’s hard to overlook.</p>
  592. <p>By the end of my experience, I was convinced that for convenience, data accessibility immediately upon landing, ease of use, and saving on costs, aloSIM is a viable option for international travelers seeking stress-free connectivity.</p>
  593. <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
  594. <p>Remember that travel necessities vary by individual, and it’s important to assess whether the features and benefits align with your specific travel habits and communication needs.</p>

  619. <p>Going on vacation can be an exciting time for many, but it can also bring about concern for pet owners who have to leave their furry friends behind. Cats are known for their independent nature, which can make them easier to care for than dogs when you’re planning a getaway. However, ensuring their safety and happiness while you’re away requires careful preparation. Here are some top tips on how to leave a cat at home while on vacation, with a special mention on the use of a cat water fountain.</p>
  620. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-consider-a-professional-pet-sitter-or-a-trusted-friend-to-drop-by"><strong>Consider a Professional Pet Sitter or a Trusted Friend To Drop By</strong></h3>
  621. <p>One of the best ways to ensure your cat is safe and happy while you’re away is to hire a professional pet sitter. They can drop in from time to time, keeping your cat’s routine as normal as possible. Alternatively, you might have a friend, neighbor, or family member who’s familiar with your cat and can check in daily. The key is choosing someone your cat knows and trusts, ensuring they’re comfortable while you’re away.</p>
  622. <p>No one knows your cat like you do. Be sure to leave detailed instructions for whoever is taking care of them. This includes information on feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, favorite toys and activities, location of the litter box, and any medications. Also, include your vet’s contact information and your accommodation details in case of emergencies.</p>
  623. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-clean-up-your-home"><strong>Clean Up Your Home</strong></h3>
  624. <p>Before leaving for vacation, it’s crucial to ensure your home is a safe environment for your cat. Conduct a thorough sweep to remove or securely store hazardous items such as toxic foods (like chocolate and onions), household cleaning products, medicines, and small objects that could be swallowed.</p>
  625. <p>Ensure trash cans are closed or out of reach, and plants harmful to cats are removed. Creating a clean, hazard-free space minimizes the risk of accidents, giving you peace of mind while you’re away and keeping your beloved pet safe and healthy in your absence.</p>
  626. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-create-a-safe-and-comfortable-environment"><strong>Create a Safe and Comfortable Environment</strong></h3>
  627. <p>Before leaving, make a quick scan of your home to ensure it’s a safe environment for your cat. Remove any hazardous items they might chew on or that could cause harm. Make sure your cat has access to their favorite sleeping spots, and consider leaving an item with your scent on it to provide comfort.</p>
  628. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-invest-in-a-cat-water-fountain"><strong>Invest in a Cat Water Fountain</strong></h3>
  629. <figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-full"><picture><source srcset="https://www.pommietravels.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Cat-water-fountain.webp 700w,https://www.pommietravels.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Cat-water-fountain-320x400.webp 320w,https://www.pommietravels.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Cat-water-fountain-150x188.webp 150w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" type="image/webp"></source></picture></figure>
  630. <p>Hydration is crucial for your cat’s health, and one way to ensure they have access to fresh water is by using<a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.uahpet.com/products/uah-pet-zero-stainless-steel-wireless-pet-water-fountain"> a cat water fountain</a>. These fountains are designed to encourage cats to drink more water by keeping it circulating, which not only makes the water more appealing but also fresher. They are an excellent solution for keeping your cat hydrated, especially during the warmer months or if your cat has a preference for running water.</p>
  631. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-leave-plenty-of-entertainment"><strong>Leave Plenty of Entertainment</strong></h3>
  632. <p>Cats need stimulation to keep them from becoming bored and frustrated. Ensure there are plenty of toys available, including new ones to keep their interest while you’re away. Consider also setting up a bird feeder near a window to provide them with visual entertainment, or leave a TV or radio on for ambient noise.</p>
  633. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-prepare-for-emergencies"><strong>Prepare for Emergencies</strong></h3>
  634. <p>Even with the most meticulous planning, emergencies can happen. Ensure that your pet sitter or caregiver knows what to do in case of an emergency. Leave a list of emergency contacts, including your veterinarian and a nearby relative or friend. Make sure they have access to your cat’s carrier and know your cat’s hiding spots in case they need to evacuate or take your cat to the vet.</p>
  635. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-use-an-automatic-feeder-for-consistent-meal-times"><strong>Use an Automatic Feeder for Consistent Meal Times</strong></h3>
  636. <p>Maintaining a consistent feeding schedule is vital for your cat’s health and well-being, especially when you are away. An automatic feeder is an invaluable tool to ensure your cat is fed on time, every day, without fail. Here’s why incorporating an automatic feeder into your cat-preparation plan is a smart move:</p>
  637. <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ensure-timely-meals"><strong>Ensure Timely Meals</strong></h4>
  638. <p>Cats thrive on routine, and an automatic feeder can dispense food at the set times you choose, mimicking their regular feeding schedule. Whether you’re away for a weekend or a couple of weeks, you can rest assured your feline friend will receive their meals precisely when they expect them.</p>
  639. <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-control-portions"><strong>Control Portions</strong></h4>
  640. <p>Overfeeding can be a concern when leaving food out, particularly for cats prone to overeating. Automatic feeders come with portion control settings, allowing you to specify exactly how much food your cat should receive at each meal. This helps in maintaining a healthy weight for your cat and prevents overindulgence.</p>
  641. <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-minimize-anxiety"><strong>Minimize Anxiety</strong></h4>
  642. <p>Some cats can become anxious or stressed without their owners around, which can disrupt their eating habits. An automatic feeder provides a sense of normalcy and routine, reducing anxiety associated with mealtime. Since the feeder operates consistently, your cat won’t associate food with the presence of people, helping them maintain a stable eating pattern in your absence.</p>
  643. <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-easy-to-use-and-reliable"><strong>Easy to Use and Reliable</strong></h4>
  644. <p>Modern automatic feeders are user-friendly and reliable. You can find models that accommodate both dry and wet food, depending on your cat’s dietary needs. Many feeders also come with battery backups to ensure they continue operating in the event of a power outage.</p>
  645. <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-tips-for-using-an-automatic-feeder"><strong>Tips for Using an Automatic Feeder</strong></h4>
  646. <ul>
  647. <li><strong>Introduce Early</strong>: Introduce your cat to the automatic feeder well before your vacation to get them used to it.</li>
  648. <li><strong>Keep It Clean</strong>: Ensure the feeder is clean and functioning correctly to avoid any malfunctions while you’re away.</li>
  649. <li><strong>Position Wisely</strong>: Place the feeder in a location your cat feels comfortable eating and away from any potential hazards.</li>
  650. <li><strong>Backup Plan</strong>: Despite reliability, technology can fail. Ensure your pet sitter is checking in regularly to make sure the feeder is working correctly and to provide fresh water and treats.</li>
  651. </ul>
  652. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-set-up-a-camera"><strong>Set Up a Camera</strong></h3>
  653. <p>Setting up a camera in your home can provide peace of mind while you’re away on vacation by allowing you to check in on your cat. Choose a camera that offers live streaming through a smartphone app, ensuring it has a wide-angle view to cover the areas where your cat spends most of their time.</p>
  654. <p>Place the camera at a vantage point that is out of reach but still provides a clear view of the main spaces. Opt for a model with two-way audio to hear and speak to your cat, enhancing the feeling of connection despite the distance.</p>
  655. <p>Incorporating an automatic feeder into your vacation preparation can make leaving your cat at home a smoother and less stressful experience. Combining this technology with the provision of fresh water through a cat water fountain and the loving care of a trusted caregiver ensures your cat is well-fed, hydrated, and happy in your absence.</p>
  656. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-clean-the-litterbox-before-you-leave"><strong>Clean the Litterbox Before You Leave</strong></h3>
  657. <p>Prior to departing for your trip, thoroughly clean your cat’s litter box to provide a fresh, hygienic start for your feline friend. Scoop out any waste, and wash the box with mild, cat-safe detergent. Refill it with fresh litter to the preferred depth. If you’re away for an extended period, consider providing multiple litter boxes or a self-cleaning model, and ensure the person checking in on your cat knows how to maintain them properly until you return.</p>
  658. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-make-sure-your-cat-can-t-get-stuck"><strong>Make Sure Your Cat Can’t Get Stuck</strong></h3>
  659. <p>Before leaving for your trip, it’s essential to cat-proof your home to prevent your furry companion from getting stuck or trapped. Check every room for potential hazards, like open vents, loose wires, or small spaces behind appliances where a cat might squeeze in and become stuck.</p>
  660. <p>Ensure windows are securely closed, and closets, cabinets, or drawers are either inaccessible or safe for exploration. Taking these precautions minimizes the risks of accidents, ensuring your cat remains safe, comfortable, and free to roam in a secure environment while you’re away.</p>
  661. <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-conclusion"><strong>Conclusion</strong></h3>
  662. <p>Leaving your cat at home while on vacation doesn’t have to be a stressful experience. With the right preparation and care, you can ensure they’re safe, happy, and well taken care of in your absence. From arranging for a reliable caregiver to investing in a cat water fountain for their hydration, these tips can help give you peace of mind while you enjoy your time away. Remember, the goal is to return home to a happy and healthy cat, and with these preparations, you’re sure to achieve just that.</p>

  686. <p>Parenting fatigue, also known as parental burnout is a mental health issue many parents<br />experience. To define it simply; parenting fatigue is when the responsibilities of parenting add<br />up and create excess stress that causes mental and physical health symptoms. This in turn<br />makes it hard to continue the role of parenting. It can be a downward cycle where the more<br />burnout you experience the more stress parenting causes which increases your fatigue.<br />Parenting fatigue can happen to all parents and they do not have to be experiencing children<br />who are having difficulties themselves. In John Gottman’s research, he found that two thirds of<br />parents will experience a drop in their relationship quality within three years of bringing their<br />baby home. This drop in relationship satisfaction can be due to the many types of parental<br />burnout.</p>
  687. <h4 class="wp-block-heading">Causes of parenting fatigue</h4>
  688. <p>There are many causes of parenting fatigue and many unique situations with your children, your<br />life factors, and other external factors. Some common causes are the stress and emotional<br />strain parenting can cause. A big one is the actual fatigue becoming a parenting causes. When<br />you bring a baby home your sleep patterns get disrupted and that continues throughout your<br />young child’s life. When your kids get older and they have extra curricular activities that keep<br />you out of the house later and eating dinner later it can cause general fatigue from long days<br />and being out of the house for so long. Many parents who work full time and are also trying to<br />balance their own activities like exercise or other hobbies and interests creates pressure to be<br />home and present with their kids as much as possible. The guilt of doing things for yourself and<br />possibly only seeing your child a few hours a day on weeknights can wear on you. I’ve worked<br />with many parents who have breakdowns over the fact they can’t “do it all”. I have to be honest<br />with them and share that no parent is able to work full time, keep their house clean, be there<br />with their kids all the time, make time for themselves, and to nurture their relationship. It’s not<br />physically possible to do this. This can be especially hard for single parents or those who are<br />not co-parenting with a partner in the home, you absolutely cannot do it all alone.</p>
  689. <h4 class="wp-block-heading">Consequences of fatigue</h4>
  690. <p>All of these stressors that cause parental fatigue then leads to many mental and physical health<br />issues. It’s well known that chronic stress affects our memory, you may become more forgetful<br />and experience brain fog, especially when your sleep has been affected. This can also lead to<br />symptoms of depression and anxiety; feeling like a failure leads to a low mood and worrying<br />about not doing the best job can create an anxious cycle. Many parents can start experiencing<br />isolation from friends and family when they worry about feeling judged or are too overwhelmed<br />to reach out. Parents often feel shame when they can’t fulfill all expectations or make a mistake.<br />They can experience guilt when they aren’t spending time with their kids. These symptoms can<br />also cause issues in your relationship and can lead to more disagreements, less time together,<br />and less desire and time for intimacy. It can also cause issues in your relationship with your<br />children; the stress can lead to less patience with them which can create a barrier in closeness.</p>
  691. <h4 class="wp-block-heading">The importance of self care</h4>
  692. <p>The good thing is some of this burnout can be prevented with good self care. You have to take<br />time for yourself to rest, get a break, and do the activities that recharge you to be there as a<br />parent. The metaphor of putting on your own oxygen mask on an airplane first is very fitting for<br />parents. You have to put on your own mask before helping your child with theirs. You need to<br />take breaks from parenting to be a good one. You will be much better at handling the<br />responsibility if you allow yourself to put you first. Hire a babysitter and take the offer from<br />friends and family to watch the kids when possible. Counseling can also be a great tool in<br />processing the emotions of parenting fatigue and a therapist can help you find the balance for<br />self care. It’s also important to voice your feelings to your partner, remember you’ve signed up<br />for this together and need to lean on each other when possible. Parenting fatigue can cause<br />extra conflict that can expand outside of parenting topics. Couples counseling can help you<br />navigate the extra stress together. It’s equally important to make time for your relationship<br />where you get to step out of the parenting role into the romance role. It helps to make time for<br />dates and quality time alone each day.</p>

  737. <p><strong>Hi, I’m Dr. Karyn. <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.dogster.com/doggos-weekly/dr-karyn-poppy-bailey-kodah-ned-and-fred-introduction">Read my introduction</a> to learn more about me and my five funny dogs, Poppy, Bailey, Kodah, Ned, and Fred.</strong></p>
  738. <p>People are sometimes surprised that as a vet, <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.catster.com/felines-weekly/pet-insurance-pay-for-but-hopefully-never-need/">I have pet insurance</a>, but although I can look after many of my pets’ health needs, there are plenty of conditions that I can’t treat, and of course, they’re the expensive ones. And in 2017, when we realized that our <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.dogster.com/dog-breeds/yellow-labrador-retriever">yellow Labrador</a>, Bailey, was going to need hip replacement surgery, I was incredibly relieved that we had opted for top-level cover. At £6000 (US $7600) per hip, there is no way we would have been able to afford this surgery, but all we had to pay was an excess of around £200 (US $250).</p>
  739. <p>But it wasn’t just the price of surgery that we needed to consider. Although I knew just about everything I needed to know about this type of surgery, it was still difficult to make the decision to go ahead. In the end, I am so glad we did, and I think Bailey is even more grateful.</p>
  740. <p>Here is her story.</p>

  742. <h2><span id="Bailey_Before">Bailey Before</span></h2>
  743. <p>My husband, Reece, already had Bailey before he and I got together. He had adopted her as a companion for his black Labrador, Poppy. As you may be aware, Labradors are a breed that is <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.dogster.com/lifestyle/hip-dysplasia-in-dogs">predisposed to hip dysplasia</a>, a condition where the ball-and-socket joint of the hips is not formed correctly, leading to abnormal mobility in the joint, inflammation, and arthritis. Despite both parents having good hip scores, we knew from a young age that Bailey’s hips were going to be trouble. Although she was active, happy, and loved bounding up and down the sand dunes, she also walked with the characteristic ‘hip dysplasia sashay’.</p>
  744. <p>In late 2017, when she was four years old, we decided to bite the bullet and x-ray her hips, and we were not surprised to see that her hips were not terrific. The head of her femur (the ‘ball’) was slightly flattened, and the acetabulum (the ‘socket’) was far too wide and shallow to properly contain and stabilize the joint, and there was already significant arthritic change around the joint.</p>
  745. <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-579465" alt="Bailey's x-ray from before surgery" width="1286" height="914" srcset="https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn.jpg 1286w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn-600x426.jpg 600w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn-768x546.jpg 768w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn-250x178.jpg 250w" data-lazy-sizes="(max-width: 1286px) 100vw, 1286px" src="https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn.jpg"/><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-579465" src="https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn.jpg" alt="Bailey's x-ray from before surgery" width="1286" height="914" srcset="https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn.jpg 1286w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn-600x426.jpg 600w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn-768x546.jpg 768w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Baileys-x-ray-from-before-surgery_Dr-Karyn-250x178.jpg 250w" sizes="(max-width: 1286px) 100vw, 1286px"/></p>
  746. <p>So we knew that the joints were unstable, and the arthritis told us that her hips would be painful, but at the time, she still seemed very happy and active. In the long term, she would benefit from hip replacement surgery, but when was the right time? Do we wait until she is showing more obvious signs of mobility problems, or do we intervene now, before the problem gets any worse?</p>
  747. <h2><span id="Big_Decisions">Big Decisions</span></h2>
  748. <p>It might seem like an obvious choice – do the surgery before she gets worse, right? But we were also mindful of how big a surgery this was.</p>
  749. <ul>
  750. <li>What if there are complications?</li>
  751. <li>What if she ends up in more pain?</li>
  752. </ul>
  753. <p>In the end, the decision was made when Bailey cried out in pain during a run in the woods – we couldn’t let her get any worse. But we were still nervous.</p>
  754. <p>Her right hip was the worst, so that was the one the orthopedic specialist would operate on first. Once she had fully recovered, we would look at doing the left hip in the following 12 months. So, in February 2018, we took our beautiful Bailey up to the Veterinary Specialist, where she would spend the next three days.</p>
  755. <figure id="attachment_579470" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-579470" style="width: 1200px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-579470" alt="Beautiful beach Bailey" width="1200" height="800" srcset="https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn.jpeg 1200w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn-600x400.jpeg 600w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn-768x512.jpeg 768w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn-250x167.jpeg 250w" data-lazy-sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" src="https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn.jpeg"/><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-579470" src="https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn.jpeg" alt="Beautiful beach Bailey" width="1200" height="800" srcset="https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn.jpeg 1200w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn-600x400.jpeg 600w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn-768x512.jpeg 768w, https://www.dogster.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Beautiful-beach-Bailey_Dr-Karyn-250x167.jpeg 250w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px"/><figcaption id="caption-attachment-579470" class="wp-caption-text">Beautiful beach Bailey</figcaption></figure>
  756. <h2><span id="Baileys_Big_Op">Bailey’s Big Op</span></h2>
  757. <p>You can imagine our relief when we got the call that the surgery went perfectly, and after two days recovering, we got to bring her home. The first 24 hours were the worst; she wasn’t her usual bouncy self, and it was obvious that, despite the medication, that she was still in some pain. By the next day, things were very different, and convincing her to take it easy became our biggest challenge! We had set up a cozy crate to keep her from getting carried away when we weren’t able to watch her, but whenever our backs were turned, she was trying to get up on the sofa!</p>
  758. <p>We had strict guidelines telling us how much we could exercise Bailey, and it was clear from our second week that it was going to be tough to hold her back! It became obvious that by going ahead with surgery sooner rather than later, Bailey hadn’t been lame or lost muscle mass, meaning that her recovery was much smoother than we had expected.</p>
  759. <p>By the fourth week, she was desperate to be let off the leash, and week six she was starting to run. Three months after surgery, she was like a brand new dog; better than she’d ever been. We didn’t realize how much her dodgy hips had held her back until the results were in front of us – and this was only after one hip!</p>

  761. <h2><span id="Boundless_Energy">Boundless Energy</span></h2>
  762. <p>We had very little trepidation about her second surgery, and three months after her left hip had been replaced with a shiny new ball-and-socket joint, she was leaping up on her back legs, something she had never done before. Suddenly, she was the<a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.dogster.com/dog-breeds/fastest-dog-breeds"> fastest of our dogs</a>, and the one that never wanted to come home from the beach.</p>
  763. <p>Now it’s five years after her second surgery, and I am so glad we went ahead when we did. Bailey’s slowing down now, showing her age, with <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.dogster.com/dog-health-care/how-to-help-a-dog-with-arthritis-at-home">arthritis in her elbows and knees</a>. But one place she doesn’t have arthritis is her hips.</p>
  764. <p>I hate to think what her life would have been like if we weren’t able to get her the surgery she needed, but I know that her quality of life would have been so much worse. I am so grateful for the skill and expertise of the surgeon and nurses at the veterinary specialist, and I am even more grateful that my husband made sure that Bailey was insured from the moment he brought her home.</p>

  766. <h2><span id="Be_Prepared_For_The_Worst">Be Prepared For The Worst</span></h2>
  767. <p>We all want the best for our pets, and no matter how much research we do and how much care we take, unless we are extraordinarily lucky, our pets will, at some point, need veterinary treatment. The reality is that without insurance, Bailey would not have her shiny titanium hips, and her life would have been very different, which is why <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.dogster.com/dog-health-care/what-does-pet-insurance-cover">I recommend pet insurance to every owner</a>. It’s something you hope you’ll never need, but when you do, you’ll be grateful you can focus on your beloved pet, and leave the money worries to the insurance company.</p>

  806. <p>There’s a long list of to-dos to check off in preparation for a wedding — not least of which is deciding which nail design will be <em>the one</em> come the big day. And we’ve got a hot take for the soon-to-be brides out there: Wedding nails don’t have to be basic.</p>
  807. <p>From bridal bow accents and heart-shaped tips to <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://fashionmagazine.com/beauty-grooming/nails/vanilla-chrome-nails-trend/">chrome polishes</a> and 3-D pearl adornments, there are endless ways to elevate a nuptial nude mani without outshining your ring — or your dress. Here, we break down five of our favourite wedding nail designs for 2024, and how to recreate them.</p>
  808. <h2>Bridal bows</h2>
  809. <blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/C2_CrIEglF-/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14">
  810. </blockquote>
  811. <p>From Honor to Tanner Fletcher, New York’s Bridal Fashion Week collections for the Spring 2025 season were rife with bow-bedecked designs. Our advice to 2024 brides? Get ahead of the trend, and flaunt a set of ribbon-adorned nails on your big day.</p>
  812. <p>Forever feminine and eternally chic, <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://fashionmagazine.com/style/the-beauty-of-girlhood-2023/">bow</a> designs add a subtle touch of elegance to a neutral base. As seen on the stunning manicure above, you can limit your ribbon placement to just a couple of nails (most importantly, on your ring finger), or you can go all-out with a full set. For a cohesive look, match the colour of the bows to your dress, or your wedding day bling. It’s all in the details.</p>
  813. <figure id="attachment_493674" class="image-embed--full ">
  814. </figure>
  815. <p>Though you could have a manicurist hand-paint this design, nail stickers can help cut the cost. Deco Beauty’s Coquette nail stickers are easy to apply and come with tons of bow-shaped options to choose from. (These are also fun to play with DIY-style for pre-wedding festivities, like your bachelorette weekend.)</p>

  820. <p>What better way to declare your love than with heart-shaped fingertips? Not quite as cliché as painting hearts all over your nails yet still as romantic, this sweetheart set is for the bride who just can’t part from her tried-and-true pink polishes.</p>
  821. <p>With the shape of a standard French manicure as your base, these easy wedding nails only require you to add two more arches overtop to form a heart. Lighter, milky pink polishes will give you a more subdued look, while brighter, bubblegum hues are guaranteed to pop against a white wedding dress.</p>

  825. <p>With a name like “Sweet Heart,” this OPI Nail Lacquer was practically made for this look. And it’s subtle enough to go with all of your honeymoon outfits after the wedding, too.</p>

  830. <p>Strike a balance between a classic French manicure and something more modern with this textured-tip design. By trading in a solid white shade for a pearlescent polish at the tips, this simple swap will give your mani a 3-D feel that your guests won’t be able to pry their eyes from.</p>
  831. <p>And, if you’re <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://fashionmagazine.com/style/shopping/travel-toiletry-bags/">jetting off</a> to somewhere tropical for a destination wedding, these freshwater pearl nails give off a beachy vibe without going <em>too</em> over the top.

  840. <p>For a standout set that’s still pared-back enough for a bride to wear, a chrome-coloured manicure is the way to go. Popularized in 2022 by none other than <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://fashionmagazine.com/beauty-grooming/zola-ganzorigt/">Hailey Bieber</a>, this near-metallic manicure is the look that keeps on giving.</p>
  841. <p>Whether your wedding dress is pure white, ivory or champagne, finding a chrome powder or polish that matches your gown will satisfy every bride’s inner perfectionist. With their mirror-like finish, these nails exude luxurious energy.</p>

  845. <p>Opt for press-ons to ensure your nails are one less thing you’ll have to worry about in the weeks leading up to the wedding. We love Glamnetic’s “Hailey” Press On Nails because they’re reusable, re-shapable and last up to two weeks.</p>

  850. <p>Hear us out, minimalists. Elevating a barely-there manicure with 3-D pearl beads is the dreamiest way to upgrade your usual nail set this wedding season. While you can stick with a truly minimal look using miniature pearls (like the mani pictured above), the possibilities are endless when it comes to the addition of this traditional bridal stone.</p>
  851. <p>Get creative with placement by adding a few beads all over each nail, in the same spot on each nail, or on just a few to make a statement. And, to add even more dimension, alternate beads of different sizes to create depth.</p>

  946. <p>Chanel’s new Ombre Essentielle Collection takes inspiration from the French fashion house’s rich heritage. Working closely with the Chanel Makeup Creation studio, <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://www.chanel.com/ca-en/makeup/cometes-collective/">Cometes Collective</a> member Cécile Paravina formulated 14 pigment-packed eyeshadows that can be worn along the lashline, eyelids <em>or</em> brows — and paired with one of three new Noir Allure Mascaras from the collection.</p>
  947. <p>“Colour is the most direct way to express an abstract and complex message,” shares Paravina in a press statement. “Keeping to just one makeup colour ensures that the message lands with even more impact.” Speaking of colour, Paravina creatively tied in elements of Chanel’s iconic colour palettes to ensure that each shade paid homage to the brand’s history. The Gris Paris shade, for example, is a nod to the colour of Parisian rooftops, and Coco Chanel’s origin. <em>Très chic, non</em>?</p>
