In a galaxy not so far away (…our play yard), two brilliant minds are quietly mastering the Force.🤺

Firehouse, our seasoned, steady, older and wiser Jedi Master. The kind of dog who doesn’t need to prove anything because he already knows everything. Calm, observant and thoughtful, he reads the room like a pro. He’s the dog who picks things up quickly, moves with intention, and carries that quiet confidence that says, “I’ve got this.” A true guide. A true good boy. Jedi-level.🥰

And then… there’s Wednesday -our young Padawan… who just so happens to be rocking a Baby Yoda costume like she was born for it. 🥹

Don’t let the whimsy fool you behind that adorable, big-eyed “Grogu” look is a sharp, curious, very smart little mind. She’s watching everything Firehouse does, soaking up every lesson and already showing she’s got the brains (and personality) to match the outfit.

✨️ We open tomorrow at 10am ✨️

Watch your Furry's w/the Spring Flowers (Toxic vs. Non-Toxic) - Pay attention when you're walking them.

During Be Kind To Animals week we will share educational materials that will be beneficial to pet owners.

🌿 Not all plants are pet-safe!

Pets love to sniff, chew, and explore, so it’s important to make sure the plants in your home won’t harm them if nibbled. While many are harmless, some can pose serious risks.

Experts at ASPCA Poison Control have put together a guide to help you spot safe vs. dangerous plants so you can decorate with peace of mind: Read more here: https://bit.ly/3UgncN3

EBARR - East Bay Animal Rescue & Refuge- Need help with cat food

Food insecurity is everywhere right now, and as prices continue to stay up, the rescues continue to take a hit.

Our cat food storage is almost EMPTY!!!!!!!!

All month long we are doing a DRY CAT FOOD DRIVE. ANY brand is fine however we are asking for the SENSITIVE STOMACH version of any brand. This cat food is primarily for Gina and Nicole's cattio which holds our medical/behavior issue cats who just can not find a home. Any good rescue must have a long term plan for those who slip through the cracks.

*We are a good shape for wet cat food so we don't need any.

We have several drop off locations, or feel free to mail to these addresses as well.

4209 Salgado Ave Oakley Ca 94561
Or
201 grapewood St. Vallejo ca 94591

You can drop off at SAGE Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Hospital
2055 Meridian park blvd
Concord,ca 94520

We are happy to take any and all dry cat food, but please if possible prioritize SENSITIVE STOMACH.
