National Stray Animal Day

Hi Friends, today I am doing what my angel sister Layla used to do, speaking out for the voiceless.

Today, 4 April, is National Stray Animal Day. It is a day to raise awareness about the plight of stray animals worldwide and encourage us to improve their lives, including adoption and responsible pet ownership. 

The reason animals become strays is not their fault but humans. You might not agree with me but if your animal is microchipped, information up to date they are less likely to become a stray if they escape, their lives are safe, and they will not end up in shelters.

That is what happened to Nili. She was not microchipped so when she escaped from her former family, she landed up in LA Animal Control and the rest is history, she now lives the pampered life. She is microchipped and perfectly safe.

Mom is working hard to keep me healthy, she says from Pound to Princess I am, Nili

When adopting Nili I immediately put her on supplements to boost her immune system as I feel the younger they start getting them the healthier long term they are and I am a big believer of the mushroom supplements. I have added a new one to her diet, Mushroom Mobility Soft Chews for both Cats and Dogs.

The Ingredients in them are:

So, as you can see Mom is doing her best with me and I need to start listening to her more and behaving, which is really hard to do BOL. We have been going to the park at least twice a day at the moment cos it has been warm and sunny and I am loving it cos I can run around like crazy, chase the dogs and of course have become a mooch pooch begging for treats from everyone like all the other dogs do, Mom has asked everyone not to give me as she is watching my weight but BOL I get them whenever possible, Mom is now calling me chunky Monkey and is scared the vet will get angry with her BOL.

Sitting on the window sill barking at all the passers by – my new thing BOL, Nili

Our plans this weekend is to relax and take it easy as Mom says she needs to recharge her batteries and I might be nice and let her,

Have a wonderful weekend Friends and make lots of memories.

Love Nili
