Wellness® Complete Health™ Cat Food #HealthyMeetsHappy

We've eaten Wellness® cat food since we were old enough to eat adult cat food, especially the canned food.  Mom Paula was impressed with the quality of the food and the fact that both of us would eat it (especially Brulee).  One of our biggest concerns about the food in the past was the fact that it contained carrageenan, which caused us to consider finding a new food.  All of this changed when Mom Paula talked to the representatives at Wellness and they informed her they were reformulating all of the Wellness products and they would be carrageenan-free! The newly formulated Wellness® Complete Health™ Grain Free recipes contain carefully chosen ingredients with vitamins and minerals for optimal health.  All of the recipes are free from corn, soy, wheat, artificial colors and flavors.

5 Ways to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

On the heels of our country’s not-so-graceful exit from The Paris Agreement, I’ve been wanting to do something… anything… to make a difference, even if it’s a tiny one. Being that I’m just one person, I know that I probably can’t affect policy or convince a major corporation to take appropriate action, but I can do my part on a daily basis, and encourage you to do the same! There are countless things that we can all do to reduce our carbon footprint, but I’m specifically committing to the five below. It’s not about making huge lifestyle changes, just taking the time to be thoughtful about how you go about your day. They’re all easy and totally doable for pretty much anyone. Pick one or commit to all five with me!

OCEANS: THE ULTIMATE COMMON GOOD

Despite movement in Washington indicating a shift away from sustainability, I am of the firm belief that non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and nonprofits dedicated to supporting a science-backed policy agenda will to operate as stewards for environmental protection in the United States. Further, governments around the world (in part represented by the United Nations) will continue to demonstrate their view of sustainable development as an integral aspect of economic growth. This includes a shift in attention to sustainable development around the use of the world’s oceans. June 5-9 is the Ocean Conference, the high-level United Nations Conference to support the implementation of Sustainable Development Goal 14: Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development. Coinciding with the global World Oceans Day, the Ocean Conference designed an official program for discussion around creating policy that ultimately enhances the conservation and sustainable use of oceans.
