Our Cat Training guide covers reward-based training at a high level, but the mechanics underneath deserve their own space — because most people who say “cats can’t be trained” are actually running into a timing, motivation, or environment problem rather than a real limit on what a cat can learn. Moose is the kind of … Read more

Our Cat Training guide covers the mechanics of reward-based training, but doesn’t get into how much a cat’s age shifts what’s realistic. Moose learned to target-touch and walk on a harness readily as a young adult; teaching him anything new now, in his more settled years, takes longer and more patience — not because something’s … Read more

Our Dog Lifestyle Needs guide touches on dog-proofing as one piece of everyday safety, but a proper checklist deserves more room than a paragraph. This one is organized by room, because that’s how dogs actually encounter hazards — not as an abstract list, but as whatever’s within reach in the specific space they’re standing in. … Read more

Our Cat Lifestyle Needs guide covers “a safe place” as one of the five pillars cats need, but doesn’t get into the practical setup. This guide does — what the research actually says about hiding spots, why vertical space does double duty as rest space for Moose specifically, and where a rest spot in the … Read more

Our Dog Lifestyle Needs guide mentions rest as one of the pillars that matters as much as exercise or diet, but doesn’t get into the practical setup.

Our Dog Training guide covers the mechanics of positive reinforcement, but doesn’t get into how much those mechanics need to flex depending on a dog’s age. Tank’s “stubborn bulldog” phase, it turned out, lined up almost exactly with the adolescent window every trainer warns you about — which made a real difference in how I … Read more

Our Dog Training guide covers positive reinforcement basics at a high level, but the mechanics underneath deserve their own space — because most people who say “positive reinforcement doesn’t work on my dog” are actually running into a timing, value, or consistency problem rather than a fundamental limitation of the method itself. This guide breaks … Read more

Our Cat Lifestyle Needs guide covers play and exercise as one piece of a bigger picture, but it’s worth breaking out on its own — because a kitten, a healthy adult, and a senior cat managing early joint changes need genuinely different things from playtime. Moose has made the senior-adjacent version of this personal territory … Read more

Our Dog Lifestyle Needs guide touches on exercise as one piece of a bigger picture, but it’s worth its own deep dive — because “how much exercise does my dog need” genuinely doesn’t have one answer. It changes as a dog grows, changes again as they age, and changes yet again depending on breed and … Read more
