Some of the most common and most frustrating cases that I see are cats with behavior problems. Why is that? Often it's because I lack quality resources to share with clients on the topic. Happily, there's some news to report in this area. Feline behaviorist, Marilyn Krieger, has written a new book, titled Naughty No More, which offers insight on correcting problem behaviors.

Wouldn't you like to make Sunday a little longer? Add a few more hours, say, three (3) of them, right to your Sunday afternoon? Ah, sounds lovely doesn't it? Adding three working hours probably wasn't what you had in mind, but that's what we're doing! Starting this month, Mid-Peninsula Animal Hospital is extending its Sunday hours. Instead of operating on Sunday from 9am to 2pm, we will operate on Sunday from 9am to 5pm. Our very first new-and-improved, now with 3 more hours Sunday will be March 6th, 2011. It's all part of our continuing effort to be there for you and your animals.

This time of year we deck the halls, and adorn the tree, string-up the lights and hang the stockings by the chinmey with care. For cat lovers extra care with tinsel can prevent what we call a string foreign body emergency, or worse, disaster.
