We have all heard that cats see better in the dark than dogs. It is true because of the elliptical pupil a cat has. Dogs and humans have round ones which are less efficient in the dark. The cat’s eye shape allows for a much larger pupil size, thus allowing more light to enter the eye. However, no cat can see in pitch black darkness. They do see better than dogs in minimal light. So let the cat lead the way versus the round eyed humans and dogs. Otherwise it is the blind leading the blind! Just kidding!
As with humans, senior dogs change as they age. Unfortunately for dog lovers, it seems to happen way too fast! One way a dog may be considered to be geriatric is based on weight. Dogs who are 50 pounds and over are considered to be in the geriatric range at the age of 7 years. Dogs 20-50 pounds are thought to be geriatric at 9 years of age and small dogs of less than twenty pounds at 10 years of age. There are several factors to consider in caring for your aging dog.
Enjoy your dog in his golden years!

Cat Nips
According to the Cat Lady, Beth Adelman, there are certain things you should and should not do when your cat gets excited and nippy. When your cat or kitty nips at you, do nothing, but say “ow” and “no biting”. Cats will think you are playing with them if you swat at them for biting. It is best to approach your kitty when he or she is calm and have a preferred toy in your hand that your cat can nip at. When you have finished playing with a string or other toy, slow down the play gradually, so your pet knows that playtime is over. This is the time to give your cat a treat as a reward for not biting. Remember that cats and kittys just love to use their pent up energy in play…it is up to you to be sure it stays nip-free!

Today one of my students shared a picture of the newest acquisition to his family…”Bruno” , a rescue dog. He had a sample picture of himself, his brother and “Bruno” which they will use as a Christmas card. He could not wait to show his friends and teacher. It is not uncommon for people to use their pets in their holiday greeting cards. As many as 58% of pet owners do this, according to the American Animal Hospital Association. My student is language learning disabled, but he had no difficulty when it came to talking about his new pet. His eyes sparkled and the words just poured out as he described how he got his dog. Just one more instance of how pets can give back to their owners!
Here is our latest pet narrator and star, Sebastian, who recently took a Tails Untold New York City Adventure. He wrote all about his journey in a unique Tails Untold Adventure Book to present as a gift to his pet parents. He decided to walk vs. ride his “cycle” throughout the New York City Streets. He said he had a great time but was very happy to be back home.
Central Park is one of our favorite places and plays an important role in Tails Untold’s adventure story. This weekend’s storm was devastating to the park. An estimated 1,000 trees have been lost because of the early snowfall. Because the trees still had most of their leaves, the snow accumulation was very heavy and damaging. If you’re interested in making a donation, Central Park Conservancy has set up a special Halloween Storm fund.
Tails Untold is so pleased to announce that we made another donation. Our donation went to the Sean Casey Animal Rescue. Our first encounter with this no-kill organization was at an event in Washington Square Park in NYC. They have a wonderful dedicated staff and volunteers that work very hard to find homes for homeless animals.
Here is their mission statement. You can also go to www.nyanimalrescue.org to read more about this wonderful Animal Rescue Organization.
Sean Casey’s “MISSION STATEMENT”
The purpose of this endeavor is to aid unfortunate animals in the interest of a higher quality of life. We take in rescued, confiscated, neglected, injured, ill,
unmanageable, or otherwise unwanted animals from private owners, zoos, shelters, and other public organizations. These animals are cared for, and/or rehabilitated to the best of our ability and means until which time they can be found healthy, happy homes – whether it be through adoption to qualified candidates or legally released into habitats suitable to the specific species in conjunction with licensed wildlife rehabilitators.”
