10 Ways Pets Can Improve Our Health
If you’ve ever had a pet, you know what it’s like to be welcomed at the door with unconditional love after that rotten day at work. Cats and dogs can add so much to our lives, but
did you know there are some great health benefits to having an animal companion in your
home?
1)STRESS: When you feel that old familiar feeling of being out of control, your
dog may walk up to you with that all-knowing look in his or her eyes, or your cat may hop
up
on your lap and start purring, reminding you that life doesn’t need to be so complicated.
2) BLOOD PRESSURE: Right up there with stress, your animal companion could
help to lower your blood pressure with a good healthy dose of kindness. Our pets remind
us that life can be simple when we relax and rest with our loved ones. Studies have shown
that
dogs can have a huge impact on your blood pressure just by having you walk them.
3)PAIN: Yep, our brain lets loose with some great chemicals when we’re happy and
at peace. These chemicals can actually help with arthritis, gout and other painful maladies.
What
could make you happier than a loving pet?
4) LOWERS CHOLESTEROL: Though studies have shown that pets help with
lowering cholesterol, they have remained inconclusive as to whether it’s because people
with pets are likely more active or whether they are just more content and thereby they eat
foods that are more health conscience and good for their bodies.
5) IMPROVES MOOD: People with pets are simply happier. There’s more laughter in their lives. Recently, dogs have been instrumental in helping soldiers cope with
post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It’s much easier to forget, or at least let go of our
emotional pain when a dog not only gives us so much love, but needs it in return. We feel
responsible for that loving animal and stay in the moment; letting a little of our sadness go
when we get that look of concern and trust from our smaller companion.
6)SOCIALIZING: You may think online social networking is fun, but wouldn’t it
be cool to meet a new friend face to face? Take your dog out to your local park; you’re sure
to have someone compliment you on how handsome or beautiful your companion is. What
an ice-breaker! Getting out of the house can be great for your health from head to toe, and
making
new friends can’t hurt either.
7)ALLERGIES: Did you know that new studies have shown that having a pet in
your home during the early years of your child’s life can actually help them overcome allergies? It’s that old adage that the more exposure your child gets the more likely they are to
develop a coping mechanism as they grow. Our bodies are great that way; we can overcome
allergies by being exposed to them when we’re young. Our bodies simply adapt. If they
didn’t, our ancestors wouldn’t have made it very far considering that most of our families
are from countries that had totally different trees, plants and in some cases, animals. Give
your child that extra boost and add a cat or dog to your family.
8) HELPS CHILDREN ADAPT SOCIALLY: Speaking of kids, what better way
to teach them responsibility than by showing them the proper way to care for a family pet?
Kids learn fast and if they have proper role models, they learn to understand the needs of
your family pet and in doing so; they can become more socially responsible and aware. In
today’s world, that sure sounds like a good way to guide your child to a great future.
9)EXERCISE: It’s pretty hard to sit still all day when your dog wants to play or
your cat is running around the house chasing a toy. You can’t help but feel the urge to get
up and play with them. What good is that? It’s exercise; it increases your breathing, blood
The Pucketos Garden Club of New Kensington presented
the shelter with their annual community service award, which
included planting a young tree (a dogwood, of course) in the
shelter’s honor. The certificate given to the shelter reads “In
appreciation for your unselfish display of humanity for animals and commitment to the community.” Shelter dogs Honey, Nevada, and Daegan braved the rainy morning in May to
show their support, along with volunteers from the shelter, the
Mayor of New Kensington, and members of the Garden Club.
Our tree is located near the airplane at Memorial Park in New
Kensington. Thank you to everyone at the Garden Club for
this honor. We look forward to watching our tree mature.

flow, endorphins and a host of other good bodily functions
that keep you going from day to day. Depending on the animal, you can go from mild to wild when it comes to exercise.
Choose wisely though, so you don’t feel overwhelmed; it needs
to
be good for both you and your animal companion.
10) SENIORS: This is something I’ve seen directly
through my in-laws. They are the happy human companions
of Charm – a cat from our shelter that they received a few
months ago - and since then they have experienced an increase
in their energy levels, happiness and contentment. Sometimes
senior citizens are lonely,
feeling lost and left out from
the rest of the world. A mild
mannered pet can help them
feel needed, and that’s something we all need from time
to time. Just remember to
bring your senior loved-one
into the shelter when choosing a pet for them so that
they can find the best match
themselves.
There are many more healthful reasons to have an animal companion, but when it
comes right down to it, it’s
important to remember that
these animals need us as much as we need them. We become
better people through our stewardship to our pets, and that’s
good for all of us in every way.
“Paws to Give” paw prints will be sold

COMCAST CARES DAY
AT ANIMAL PROTECTORS
We had a great turn out April 30th when local Comcast employees showed up at Animal Protectors.
Starting at 8 am, local Comcast employees and AP
volunteers worked together to build a small cat run attached to the outside of the building as well as painting,
landscaping, and repairing leaking pipes. On top of that
we had a car wash to raise funds for the shelter. It was
a great day of community service; a genuinely feel-good
experience in which everyone came together to help our
cats and dogs.
This is Comcast’s 10th Annual Care Day. Each year on
the same day all around the country, Comcast commits
its employees to helping their local community grow
through volunteer service.
We’re extremely grateful to Comcast for their skill,
hard work and dedication in making Animal Protectors
a better place for our animal friends. Come by sometime
and see the new cat enclosure. You’re sure to see some
happy cats basking in the fresh air and sunshine on a
warm summer day.
Something To Chew On...
FOSTERCARE
As a shelter for cats and
dogs, we often talk about the
need for good volunteers, donations and kind people to
adopt our animals. But there’s
something more that we need,
perhaps even more desperately
for some of the animals that we take in: Foster parents. It sounds odd to be a foster parent of a cat or a
dog and sometimes their litters, but in truth, the job
of a foster parent is just as important as the work we
do at the shelter itself because a foster parent will
be taking certain animals into their homes to care
for until we either have more room at the shelter, or
to give them somewhere to spend their last days if
they are terminally ill.
Fostering isn’t easy and we need dedicated, kind,
patient people for this important task. For example, right now it’s kitten season and we’re so overwhelmed with litter after litter being brought in by
so many kind people that just want to make sure
these little ones are safe and out of the elements.
Unfortunately, we don’t always have room at the
shelter because we have limited space. Turning
away a needy animal breaks our hearts, so we turn
to our fostering specialists for help. They have a
network of people that can take these litters into
their homes short-term, while we make room for
them at the shelter by adopting out the cats and
dogs already there and waiting. If we have people
that can take a mother and her newborn kittens
into their homes until the kittens are old enough
to be put up for adoption at the shelter, then we
can save more animals from the streets. And the
more we save from the streets, the better we are able
to keep the feral population under control through
spaying and neutering the animals that come to us.
One of the most important things we can do for
our community is to never let an animal leave our
shelter unless he or she is neutered or spayed.
If you think you can find it in your heart to be
a foster parent to a cat, a dog, kittens or puppies
then please come to Animal Protectors and fill out
a foster parent application. It’s a simple process and
just provides us with information to verify that our
precious animals will be watched over by someone
we can trust. We really need you. So if you’ve ever
wanted to do some volunteer work or make a difference in your community or the world for that
matter, consider helping us with our stewardship
toward our little friends. Please, come be a foster
parent.

MICROCHIPPING SERVICES
Now Available at the Shelter
As we walk through the kennels, we just know
that some of the animals that have found their
way to us were lost; whether they ran out an open
door, broke their collar or lead, or dug through
a fence, they became lost and their owners have
never found them. We know that some of these
pups had loving homes through their mannerisms
and obvious training. We know that as we strive to
find them a new home, there is a chance they are
missing their old home.
We want lost animals and owners to find each
other should they become separated. In order to
do that, Animal Protectors is now offering microchipping services to the community.
The chips are AKC-CAR ISO chips. The cost
for an animal you adopt/adopted from AP is only
$20; this includes lifetime registration with the
microchip company. For non-AP animals the cost
is only $30, and also includes the registration.
Once your animal has a microchip you are then
able to apply for a lifetime license, this is an additional fee and is taken care of by the county in
which you live.
Interested in having your pet(s) chipped? Just
call the shelter 724.339.7388 to set an appointment with either Laurie or Lindsay.
Unfortunately, animals get lost. Make sure your
furry friend is returned to you by taking advantage
of this inexpensive service from AP.
Remember, animals sometimes get lost, but with
a microchip they are 20 times more likely to be
returned home.
