Pet travel: Ten tips to make travelling with a pet easier
 Great article: might add a comment to make sure cats are in carriers (some goofs might think they can harness a cat like a dog) and cover the carrier with a towel - cats are less stressed when they can't see and also if they are free they can get under pedals, behind seats etc. the cat lady SF Cats Examiner (view)

Synbiotics in Veterinary Medicine

 Thank you for a great article on probiotics. I actually write under the name of Linda the Probiotics Tooth Fairy and work for a biopharmaceutical company that engineers natural probiotic (beneficial bacteria) products for human and pet oral care.Probiotic products are no longer just reserved for gut and intestinal health. Introducing beneficial bacteria into your pet's mouth can improve the health of their teeth and gums and studies indicate that oral health can be directly linked to overall health.
