Names carry energy. When naming or renaming your pet think about what type of energy you want your pet to have! Remember… you are the one that has to live with it….
Silly names will tend to yield a pet that is funny, goofy, maybe a bit mischievous.
A confident name will tend to yield a pet that is slightly dominant, a leader, bossy.
A cuddly name will yield a pet that is loving and gentle.
These names can help, but personalities are of course stronger than any name.
Sometimes. You should tell them. But be sure to tell them why they are in foster and they are worthy. You do not want them to feel abandoned or unwanted when they relocate again.
Animals feel when they are abandon, unwanted, and unloved. It hurts their self esteem. Animals are optimistic beings. They are excited about new possibilities when entering a new home. Many animals want to stay where they are. They ask to stay.
Some animals say they know it is a temporary spot for them and they are looking for someone else or a different environment.
Some animals want to stay but understand the foster process.
Some animals feels more abandonment, unworthiness, and shame when they know they have to leave again.
We want to prevent the last one from happening.
Many animals loves companionship of other animals and when they spend years together, they get attached. So the loss of one can greatly affect the other. Especially if they have spent their entire lives together.
Pets will grieve this loss, hard. And they may be lonely, sad, and get depressed.
Many humans want to bring in a younger friend or a puppy/kitten for the seniors companionship. At times, in single animal homes, humans want to bring the new baby in before the senior transitions so they are not a pet free home.
Continue reading “Bringing in a Young Animal with A Senior Animal In the House”For the most part, animals are social beings. They want friends. They are happier with another animal in the home. There are always exceptions tho. Some animals have trauma and don’t want to be around other animals. And some of them just prefer solitude. Just like humans!
Things to keep in mind:
Relationships between the same animals will change over time and evolve like human relationships. Roles shift, aging and health change the dynamic, and changes in the home/lifestyle/etc affect the dynamic.
When there are relationship problems, most of the time, those can be worked out with a guardian’s help. (Again, exceptions are animals that have experienced trauma with other animals and will always need to be an only pet).

Our world is sadly filled with millions of unwanted and unloved animals. It is heartbreaking. However, I choose to see the brighter side. If I don’t the sadness is overwhelming. The brighter side is there are also hundreds of thousands of humans willing to open their homes to one of these pets.
Transitioning a new pet into your home is challenging, to say the least. This transition will test even the kindest, most loving animal guardian on some days. Especially in the beginning. Please know if it is challenging for you, it is doubly challenging for your new animal.
