Tips to help keep your pets warm and safe
Pet points: Beating your pet’s winter bulge
NORTH AMERICAN PRECIS
SYNDICATE
When it’s cold outside, it’s not un-
usual to cut back on activity, dive into
the comfort food and put on a few extra
pounds. It’s true for four-legged fam-
ily members as well as humans. Just as
with people, pet obesity is on the rise
and inactivity just adds to the problem.
Fortunately, you can take steps to
get your pet back on track before obesity
triggers other health issues. Arthritis,
diabetes, heart disease, high blood pres-

NORTH AMERICAN PRECIS
SYNDICATE
The cold-weather months aren’t
just hard on humans. Pets can also
be affected by the chilly tempera-
tures.
Keeping pets safe and happy
when it’s cold is a major concern
for all pet owners. Marc Morrone,
renowned pet expert and host of
Hallmark Channel’s “Petkeeping
with Marc Morrone” (airs week-
days at noon), is a modern-day Dr.
Dolittle and Martha Stewart’s go-to
guy in the world of four-legged and
winged beasts, from dogs to cats
and rabbits to parrots.
On his show, Marc reveals what
viewers need to know about caring
for their pets, and below are Marc’s
top tips for winter pet care:

sure and other health problems are all
more prevalent when people or pets car-
ry a few extra pounds. If you can’t feel
your pet’s ribs or spine easily, it may be
time for your pet to shed a few pounds.
Here are some tips to help:
n Balance their diet — Visit your
vet to set a target weight and deter-
mine how much food and the type of
food that’s best for your dog’s or cat’s
age, weight and overall health. Finding
healthier snacks and treats can be one
way to cut down on additional pounds.
Also, skip the table scraps and serve

and sweaters, make sure to practice
inside your home first. If your pets
aren’t comfortable walking around
the house in their gear, they will not
be comfortable in the outdoors.
n Don’t forget about the wild
animals in the winter. Placing a
bird feeder outside your window
can mean the difference between
life and death for a little songbird.
n Keep antifreeze out of reach
of pets. It is extremely toxic. Marc
cannot stress that enough.
n If you live in an apartment
building or co-op, petition the
board to only use pet-safe deicer on
the sidewalks and courtyard walk-
ways throughout the winter.
n If you own a reptile, keep ex-
tra heat lamps on hand during the
winter months in case one blows
out during a holiday or snowstorm
and you can’t get out to replace the
smaller portion sizes.
n Supplement their diet — Some-
times, a dog or cat will need something
extra in the diet to make it more bal-
anced. For example, Bactaquin Diges-
tive Health Supplement helps restore
intestinal health following imbalances
in your pet’s diet.
n Get active — Schedule walks and
look for some indoor venues that may
be pet friendly-such as a mall or pet day
care center that offers additional activi-
ties. Start slowly and increase exercise
time as you go.

bulb.
n In the winter, dry air causes
dogs and cats to shed quite a bit. To
combat this, brush your pet daily
and add raw flaxseed oil to your
pet’s food (1 teaspoon for every 10
lbs. of your pet’s weight). This will
help reduce dryness of the skin.
In every episode of “Petkeeping
with Marc Morrone,” customers
stop by with pet in hand seeking
Marc’s advice on every topic from
common cat/dog misconceptions
to how to keep children and pets
safe and happy while living un-
der the same roof. This season, he
looks at plus-size pets, baby pets,
older pets, high-maintenance pets
and more.
For more information on “Pet-
keeping with Marc Morrone,” visit
www.hallmarkchannel.com/pet-
keepingwithmarcmorrone.
n Cats need activity too — Set
some time to play with your cat using
toys that simulate hunting. Short 15- to
20-minute sessions can burn off a lot of
calories and may cut down on nocturnal
activity.
n Help your pet’s mobility — If
your dog or cat slows down, limps or
shows other changes during exercise,
consult your vet. Pets will slow down
as arthritis flares up, and products with
glucosamine and chondroitin play an
important role in maintaining optimal
joint function.

Change
We are like plants; we are either growing or dying. There is no stopping. Life is filled with cycles, up and down. In Physics,
there is a term call Entropy. This means everything moves toward maximum randomness or chaos. That is the natural course
of things unless something holds it together and brings things back to order. Life is what creates the energy to put things
back in order. If you never clean and organize your home, eventually it will be utter chaos. So, growth, in human terms,
means thinking, organizing, and planning for the future. This is the creative process that brings it all back together when
things have drifted apart.
Deep inside, we all know that we’re changing. But our ability to change is limited by our comfort zone. On every issue
we have a comfort zone. Some may like crowds, some like to be alone, our body weight has a comfort zone, and tobacco
and alcohol use have a comfort zone. To change we must learn and accept something new about ourselves. It may be a
small step outside of our comfort zone. That changes us, just a little. We no longer want to live the way we have been.
That means we had to change and to learn to live in a different way. Once we begin to make changes it becomes nonstop:
learn about ourselves, change a little, learn about ourselves, change a little more, and so on. All we know is that each step
of learning and changing makes life better. How long can it keep getting better? As long as we keep learning; striving to
know more about ourselves.
Natural health is about change and taking responsibility. We have been conditioned by the medical community, the
news, the television, the government, our religions, and our schools to follow the rules. This builds our comfort zones and
keeps us stuck there.
A few months ago, I had a man in the office for a consultation for natural treatments for cancer. Some time after he
began his natural program, he told me that he had to tell his regular doctor to treat him like he was going to live, not like
he was dying. In the doctor’s mind, this man was going to die, so he had stopped treating the blood
pressure and diabetes as aggressively as before. This man had made a choice, he was going to live
and he wanted everyone else around him to treat him that way. This was a great and courageous
step; a leap of faith. This greatly increases chances of living to be an old man.
Fortunately, most of us are not faced with such a huge task of changing our thinking. Change
always starts in the mind. We must have a desirable, worthwhile goal. We then must mentally
visualize and imagine ourselves changing, doing the new thing. When we change the comfort zone
in our mind, we can more easily move into that scary area physically and emotionally.
So learn to change and grow personally, put energy into life to push the chaos back into a more
organized, desirable situation.
