Gotcha Day Celebration
Gotcha Day is the day you brought your new family member home, whether it was a young puppy or a senior pet. Though some people know their pet’s birthday or have an approximate month, if you don’t know the exact day, the Gotcha Day is a great day to celebrate. But how does one typically celebrate a Gotcha Day? Here are some ideas:
FUN OUTING OR STAYCATION – if your dog loves the beach or hiking take them out for a special outing. Let them sniff and pee on whatever they want. No rush! If they are a couch potato, indulge by watching a movie with them. Enjoy a cat nap with your cat.
NEW TOY – keep in mind a “new toy” could mean letting them chew on your dirty socks if that’s something they love. My cat, for instance, loves to stick his head in my smelly shoes and my other cat loves to roll on towels damp from just being used. A new ball with a fun squeaky noise is a celebration even if it only lasts as long as it takes for your pet to kill the squeaker.
