My older cat, Goldie has been with me for about 11 years now. She is a little spoiled and if she whines (meows) too much, I just look at her and say "no whining" everytime until she stops. It is funny that she seems to know what I mean.

Aloha All:
Moving to a place down the block, to another city or another state can be stressful. In many ways, your pets can react to moving in the same way humans do. It is a stressful time for them too. Here are some helpful tips to keep in mind while moving yourself … (0 comments)
Thanks for all the great responses. I just wanted to say that I myself love animals and thankfully only have a very mild and temporary allergy to cats that doesn't bother me much at all. I had a great seller who had 5 dogs and 1 cat but whose house was cleaner … (5 comments)
This is one of the kindest things I've ever experienced. I have no way to know who sent it, but there is a beautiful soul working in the dead letter office of the US postal service. 
My recent post indicating a departing tenant left a bath closet full of towels (not nice or matched) got me thinking about all of the STRANGE items that have been left....not just furniture or towels - pets, cars, plants, drugs.

Have you ever been lost in a foreign country, you didn't know the language and you had no way of communicating? Can you imagine how scared you would be? To make matters worse, your doctor had drugged you so you remain calm during the flight to this new and foreign world?

Mine is terrified!
I was on my way home from showing my listing in Suffolk last night. I was, as usual, listening to WHRV and Paul Shugrue with 'out of the box'. They aired a public service reminder I want to paraphrase for you...
Humans love a great fireworks show but dogs and cats don't. The very things that bring out the oohs and aah's in us are the same things that cause pets to go into panic mode. It is the instinctive nature of animals to escape from the bright lights and booming sounds … (0 comments)
I've come in contact with customers that just don't allow their pets inside. And in Arizona, that just seems tough. As a matter of fact, one in particular hoses down their pet periodically during the day.

The annual 4th of July celebration "Red, White & Blue on the Green" will be held Wednesday, July 4 from 4 to 7 p.m. on Summerville's Town Square. This old fashioned 4th of July celebration focuses on families and is hosted by Summerville D.R.E.A.M. (Downtown Restoration Enhancement and Management Corporation).
Did you know more pets are lost on July 4th than any other day? What do you expect lots of good food and food smells around, marching bands, parades and loud fireworks. Not fun for our furry companions!
For anyone in Central or Southern California who is concerned with cats and dogs abandoned by forecosures, this might be a good way to have them cared for in a no-kill situation until they can be permanently adopted.

While working for a recent client I found myself working with the family cat who lives there. This cute little firball was an important member of the family who apparently was not consulted beforehand on the project. He did not like me changing up the home one bit and even went so far as … (2 comments)
Our sweet Goldador (Half Golden Retriver, half Labrador) was being trained for the Canine Companions for Independence, but was released before she completed her training because it appeared she may develop hips dysplasia. We were lucky enough to have been selected to be her permanent parents.

Pets. Dogs, cats, fish and guinea pigs just to name a few. They all quickly become members of our families, with all of their qualities. Some family members leave socks around the house, some of our pets leave chew toys and catnip.
