Common Misconceptions About Feeding Pets
Common feeding mistakes include giving white rice and organ meat (skin and bone problems), fish (choking and urinary stones), cooked bones (intestinal tears), human leftovers (too much salt and oil), long-term raw meat (dental and picky-eating issues), chocolate (toxic to dogs) and milk or raw egg white (diarrhea and vitamin loss). Feed a balanced, species-appropriate diet.
What to Do When Your Dog’s Coat Is Dry and Dull
A dry, dull, or matted coat is often tied to diet, lack of sunlight, parasites, grooming habits, and a dirty environment. Improving it comes down to a low-salt diet with protein and vitamins, moderate sun and exercise, monthly parasite control, season-appropriate bathing, and keeping the living space clean and dry.
Cymric
The Cymric, English name Cymric, is also called the Longhaired Manx or Longhaired Isle of Man cat. From its alias we know it is a longhaired cat; though long-haired, it's not hard to groom. Its most striking feature is having no tail, drawing immediate attention.
Turkish Angora
The Turkish Angora, named for Turkey's capital Ankara, is one of the oldest long-haired breeds, dating to the 16th century. Elegant with silky, medium-length coat and almond eyes, it is agile, independent, and famously fond of water. Once nearly supplanted by the Persian, it was revived in the US from 1963 and is now carefully bred to preserve its pure bloodline.
Siberian
The Siberian Forest Cat, shortened to Siberian Cat, has the earliest written records from the 11th century: it was a very common cat in Russian markets and Siberian villages. Living in a harsh country, it is covered in long fur with a thick ruff around the neck. Its outer guard hairs are hard, smooth, and oily, and its dense undercoat resists the Siberian cold.

Somali
The Somali cat looks much like the Abyssinian—slender, slightly rounded, with big V-shaped ears and almond eyes—but with a semi-long, soft, dense coat. Developed in the US and Canada from a spontaneous long-haired mutation of the Abyssinian, the Somali is intelligent, gentle, playful, and water-loving, though its abundant coat needs regular grooming.
Korat
The Korat cat, also called the Korat or Si-Sawat, originates from the Khorat Plateau in northwest Thailand and is an ancient breed. Introduced to the US in 1959 and recognized by American cat lovers in 1965, and by Britain 10 years later. Its coat, like the Russian Blue and Chartreux, is solid blue with no shading or pattern, with a silvery sheen, and it has a unique heart-shaped face.
European Burmese
The European Burmese is an elegant cat, but not a fragile one. It has a well-proportioned build, moderate muscle, and expressive eyes. Because it is very intelligent, affectionate, and loyal, it makes an excellent pet.
Birman
The Birman, also called the sacred cat of Burma, is a medium-sized cat with the Latin name Birman. Although now distributed worldwide, legend says they once lived only in Myanmar and were kept by temple monks; because they guarded the hall, they are considered temple guardian cats.
