Cats are the most popular pet in the United States

It is estimated that 7 of every 10 homes has at least one cat.Sadly, cats are also the most relinquished pet in the United States.Many cats are relinquished because of behavior issues, such as scratching or not using the litter box.With some time and attention to the problem, cats can remain an integral part of the family for many years."

Humane solution to inhumane declawing of cats

Cat Scratch Away is a new and innovative organic product designed to target destructive cat scratching, it offers a safe and natural alternative to inhumane declawing. This new organic formula is a catalyst for cats. It creates excitement and stimulates cats to scratch. Cat Scratch Away is far more effective than Catnip. It works by simply applying a few drops onto a scratching post. Not only does it create excitement and stimulate cats to scratch, Cat Scratch Away can assist cat owners searching for a solution to destructive scratching. Cats release natural pheromones when they scratch on an item. This explains why in many instances cats ignore a newly introduced scratching post. It is well known that cats have a tendency to show natural scratching behavior within the domestic home. Studies have been made as to why cats do this scratching. Many attempts or methods have been proposed for stopping this behavior. However, most of these attempts have proven either completely inadequate or only slightly successful. In many instances cat owners have even resorted to de-clawing the cats. De-clawing (amputation of two digits in each cat pad) is considered very inhumane and is illegal in many countries. This method causes cats to undergo a life of pain and vulnerability. Many animal welfare groups oppose this controversial method to control unwanted natural cat scratch behavior. An alarming number of cats are placed for adoption because of damage caused to valuable items within the family home. Cat Scratch Away is a new organic product welcomed by many cat owners dealing with destructive scratching. This new organic formula is a combination of natural extracts. There are some additional benefits of this new product; it can assist cat owners that are attempting to introduce a cat to a new cat bed. Another benefit is that it can be used to renew a cat’s interest in a long ignored cat toy. Cat Scratch Away is a user friendly method that redirects natural cat scratching behavior in a positive direction. Cat Scratch Away's primary purpose is to provide cat owners an effective alternative to de-clawing. Cat Scratch Away is an organic product designed to target destructive cat scratching; it offers a safe and natural alternative to inhumane declawing. ...read more

It is a most unbelievable review because it never happened. Judge for yourself i you think it makes any sense. What business woman who has been successful in the East Valley for fifteen years,would behave in such a manner? Was this written by a kid or perhaps a competitor that is trying to promote their business by tearing down another? Even putting their name and number in the review as an ad. So OBVIOUS who must have really written these lies. almost makes me laugh if it were not so pathetic. ...read more

Most unbelievable experience I have ever had! Told my husband that I was a liar about the directions to my home, would not even meet my Shih Tzu and Maltese and walked in an just made my husband feel super uncomfortable. My husband finally just asked her to leave because she was going CRAZY! She later had the audacity to call me and complain about the fact my husband was "Mean and Rude". Don't even call this lady she will spend 45 minutes telling you about her health problems then if you can get past that and she shows up she is super unprofessional and if your dogs break like most, she will just say how mean they are and will not even get close to them! Worst experience of my life! I was able to call another pet groomer AZ Pet Stylist 480-326-5298 and they have been amazing scheduled appointment right away and helped my little guys back into the prefect shape he needed to be! Even scheduled them to come to my home every 6 weeks to keep them looking good! ...read more

I have been adopting dogs for over 17 years and was very particular with which dog would be the best suited for my lifestyle. I asked all the right questions. All the answers I got were lies! I have a sedate household and after a few weeks I could tell this dog was nothing like they said.LIE: The dog is not an incessant barkaholic.(If i open a window, every noise got a bark). LIE: He can "hold" it if he has to go potty.(the pee stains ruined my laminated wood floors). LIE: He is a lap dog. (this thing couldnt sit still for one minute.) LIE: He is not a biter.Just about everything was a lie. He tortured my elderly dog and all she does is lay around all day because she has breast cancer and cushing's disease. He would antagonize her. I tried for six weeks to get him to leave her alone and he even bit her a few times. I did not want to give up on Elvis. (he has been returned from other who had adopted him. Gee i wonder why????)Everyday I would get down on all fours and show him the doggy door routine. In 6 weeks I couldnt get him to use it. Then one night he was on the bed next to me. i bent down to kiss him and he took a hold of my nose and bit it. I honestly thought he took my nose off. Blood everywhere. He had a viciousside. He also bit my son and myself other times. THIS DOG SHOULD NOT BE PLACED FOR ADOPTION. He is a Jeckyll and Hyde. I am in contact with the az humane society as not to let this guy go to a house with or without kids. I did as much as i could and put up with a lot of problems. This dog seemed to have ptsd from past abuse..Furthermore, when they put up the ad again for elvis, it insinuated that i was at fault for the dogs behavior. HOW MUCH MORE TORTURE ARE YOU GOING TO PUT THIS DOG THROUGH?I purposely did NOT go to the maricopa shelter because I wanted a dog that had lived with onefoster home, as I assumed that the foster parent would know the dog's behavior quite well. NOT!So I did all the right things to no avail. This was all wrong. They just wanted to get rid of him!!! ...read more
