If you were to use words to describe a cat, you’d probably use something along the lines of independent, aloof, mysterious, and proud. A cat’s natural tendency to be independent probably makes you feel less like an owner and more like their housekeeper. You are not crazy to feel this way because most cats are so independent that it makes you question whether they know of your existence. The truth behind their independence really stems from their ancestral hunting behaviors. Confused? Let me explain.
Losing a pet is an unnerving experience. I’ve personally experienced this nightmarish scenario a couple of years back when a friend lost my pet. When this scenario happens, It’s easy to play the blame game and unleash your frustrations on whoever lost your pet. But let’s be real, this can happen to anyone. It’s could be an honest mistake.
As the nice summer weather is approaching, many of us are planning ahead for our summer activities. Unfortunately, with international travels out of the picture for the next little while, the only safe alternative is for us to go outdoors and enjoy what mother nature has to offer.

Dolphins are intuitive animals that can sense danger in the vast ocean. On many occasions, dolphins have been credited with saving humans from the dangers lurking below. In 2004, a group of four swimmers, including Rob Howe and his daughter, enjoyed a nice dip near the Whangarei beach in Newzealand. In the midst of their swim, the foursome came upon a pod of friendly dolphins. However, for Howe, this encounter was out of the ordinary.
Having a dry snout does not mean your dog is sick. It’s completely normal if they had just woken up from a nap or spent some time outside. Let them have a drink of water, and the moisture in their snout should return shortly. However, if it doesn’t return, check their gum for moisture and color. If the gum is dry but pink, it could a sign of dehydration. However, if the gum is abnormally pale or purplish in color accompanied by a dry nose, this warrants a visit to the vet.
The good news is, you are not very appealing to an anaconda, so the scenario of being eaten alive by a giant anaconda is highly unlikely. Considering your size, an anaconda would have to go through hell and back just to make you a meal. I guess that’s one thing to be thankful for right? Time and time again, Hollywood movies are fascinated by rogue anacondas running wild and swallowing every human in its path. We can’t help but wonder, what will happen if an anaconda swallows a human being in one gulp?
