Metro Phoenix program works to keep pets with owners experiencing homelessness

When Mike Grimler lost his home, he knew a lot was about to change.

But when it came to his two dogs, Peanut and Maggie May, there was no way he’d continue without them, he said.

The dogs had been with Grimler since they were puppies, he said, and when Grimler’s fiancée got sick toward the end of last year, he promised her that he would keep them safe.

For Grimler and many other people experiencing homelessness in metro Phoenix, having animals can be a barrier to finding emergency housing. Few shelters in the Valley can accommodate pets. That’s why

Animal rescue group help spay and neuter Texarkana pets | Texarkana

TEXARKANA, Ark. – Animal advocates are offering low-cost spay and neuter clinics to help combat the overpopulation of pets in the Texarkana area.

Last year, the Arkansas side of the city passed an ordinance requiring pets to be spayed or neutered. The spay and neuter clinic not only helps prevent unwanted litters, or pets that get dumped and left behind, but animal advocates say it also improves or promotes the animal’s health.

Friends Furrever, a local animal rescue group, is sponsoring the clinic at the Texarkana shelter.

Are Tarantula Spiders? A Glimpse at Spider Evolution and Phylogeny

Are tarantula’s spiders? Short answer… yes, they are indeed spiders. Any of you who follow me on social media will know that I own a few tarantulas, and this is where this post comes from. The last few times that I have visited an exotic pet shop and asked to see their spiders, I have been met with the response “we don’t really stock any spiders, but we do have a few tarantulas”. Furthermore, I have seen a couple of social media posts and YouTube videos from tarantula keepers in which they state that tarantulas are not actually spiders. This

The Scorpion that lives in England

Scorpions, tough Chelicerata arachnids, well known for their association with the one of the most hostile, hottest environments on earth…deserts. But even when not living in deserts, scorpions still tend to be found in warm ecosystems, such as rainforests and savannas. However, believe it or not, there is a scorpion that braces the rather unpleasant British weather.

The European yellow-tailed scorpion (Euscorpius flavicaudis), is a small black scorpion with yellow-brown legs, that is widely distributed across Europe (especially in the south), as well as Northern parts of Africa (Cloudsley-Thompson and Constantinou, 1983). As an adult, they reach sizes

Mountain View Humane in need of pet food donations

CHRISTIANSBURG, Va. (WDBJ) – Mountain View Humane is asking the community for help in making sure pets in the New River Valley are fed.

Mountain View Humane is accepting donations of any brand and size of dry cat and dog food.

“It is very important because it is the difference between eating and not eating,” said Executive Director Sylvie Peterson. “We don’t ever want to find the situation where pets aren’t
