Bringing a rescue pet into your life can be one of the most rewarding decisions you’ll ever make 🐾❤️

But it’s not just about choosing with your heart, it’s about choosing with your lifestyle too. The right match makes all the difference ✨

Many behaviour and welfare challenges don’t come from “difficult” animals, but from mismatched homes. When you take the time to find the right fit, everyone thrives.

🐶🐱 Thinking of adopting?

Mark Vette shares what to consider when choosing a rescue pet, so you can set both you and your new companion up for success.

Kidney Stones: What You Need to Know 🪨

Did you know 1 in 10 Kiwis will experience kidney stones in their lifetime? 😖 It’s often described as one of the most painful conditions leading to over 4,000 hospital visits each year.

So what are kidney stones?
They’re hard deposits that form in your kidneys. Some are tiny and pass without you even noticing. But when they’re larger they can cause severe pain, nausea, vomiting and may need medical treatment to break them down.

👀 Watch out for symptoms:
– Constant urge to p*e
– Pain when p*eing
– Difficulty or inability to p*e

💡 Good news, they can be prevented!
– Drink more water
– Reduce salt intake

If you want to learn more about prevention, symptoms and treatment, check out Tracey’s blog 👇
