Karen Dendy Smith is a Soul Level Animal Communicator and one of the most gentle communicators I've had the pleasure to connect with, or should I say that has connected with my cat pack. I have been hesitant to let anyone connect with my cat Romeo because he has made it known that he doesn't like it, but when Karen asked him to connect the energy was very different and he accepted her. ...

If you're lucky, you've never heard these words from your vet: "There's nothing more we can do" But many of us have herd these words. And they're devastating.

Earlier this year, we let you know about a concerning trend that pet owners have been reporting: Sick and deceased pets, assumed to be related to pet food, mostly Purina.

The pet paren...

There's a mass buyout that's been happening in veterinary medicine by giant conglomerates. You've probably noticed since 25% of primary care vets are now corporate owned and 75% of specialty and emergency vets are corporate owned.  There's really no upside for anyone but the people at the top of the pyramid of these conglomerates.  So, what can you do about it? Isabel and I dis...
