Owners worry about pets at home alone

By Sarah Viren The Galveston County Daily News

Is Fluffy bored when left home alone? Does Spot have separation anxiety?

Definitely, say a growing number of pet owners and experts in the pet-care field. And they are doing something about it.

Once upon a time, our furry little friends passed their days away in relative oblivion. But these days many pet owners try to find ways to keep their dogs and cats entertained during long days when they are home alone.

Happy days - Pet sitters allow favorite pals to play, stay at home

There’s little doubt that Mack is one well-loved feline.

Mack, a 16-year-old orange tabby tended by Don and Linda Huffman, has received acupuncture treatments from a holistic veterinarian and gets a special blend of Chinese herbs added to his food to keep him healthy.

When the Lawrence couple have to go out of town, they wouldn’t think of boarding their “baby” at a kennel or just leaving him home alone for a couple of days.
