Day 3

Pet Pal Keli mentioned in her Pet Pals Facebook LIVE video that Pet Pals has been working hard behind the scene on our website. Security and privacy of your information is one of our top priorities and focus. Without further ado!

Pet Pals is proud to announce the launch of our own Progressive Web Application (PWA)! Our Web App is a web app that uses modern web capabilities to deliver you a mobile app-like experience on any compatible device. This brings you increased security, blazing fast interaction, access even when you are offline, and more for the entire Pet Pals site and blog. At the same time, it requires no permissions on your device, no installation, and does not (cannot) access or use any of your information.

So how do you get the Pet Pals Web App and/or how do you know of your device is compatible? Simple! Navigate to HirePetPals.com and;

  • For Android - Look for a small banner to appear at the bottom of the page (see screenshots below for an example) giving you the option to add Pet Pals to your Home screen. If it appears, your device is compatible. Click/tap the message and you'll get another message asking if you want to add Pet Pals to your Home screen. Click "add" and your set.
  • For Apple iOS - Click/tap the "share" button and then select the "Add to Home Screen" (see screenshot below) option. It will look like your adding a regular website shortcut. However, the app will open in full screen and operate accordingly.

Once installed, you can treat it like any other app on your device. Likewise, if you ever want to remove it from you device, then you do so like you would any other app on that device.

***The next time you visit Pet Pals site or blog, or want to email or even call Pet Pals; just open the app instead of navigating to the website and then select what you want to do. You'll always have our latest updates and always pick back up in the same place you left off.

Tip:
- swipe right anywhere on our Web App or mobile site to see a full navigational menu and easily get to where you want to go.


Notes:
-The first time you open the app, it may take a few seconds to load. After that, it will pop-up as quickly as your device will allow.

-This is not the same as adding a bookmark to our site and does need need or use your device's browser to operate.

Below are screenshots to help guide the way!

Cats are making a name for themselves. These hot-shot superstars in funny cat videos, memes, reels, and TikTok videos. So why not give them a special month of glory where we can celebrate their stubbornness, independence, and selective self-sustainable being. February is for the cats, and more specifically it's for their health, it is called National Cat Health Month." Pet Pals encourages every cat parent to spend the month with extra focus on their cat's physical and emotional well-being, and research signs of unhealthy behavior or illness. Pet Pals has compiled 3 tips to help ensure your furry cat friend stays in tip-top shape. 1. Litter boxes should be in a well-lit, quiet, and ventilated room of the house that's easily accessible to your kitty. It should not be in a dark, noisy place because he may choose not to use it. You should also clean it once a day. It's a good way to notice changes that may be a sign of health issues. 2. Even though cats spend approximately five hours a day grooming themselves, they still need our help to stay happy and healthy. Depending on the length of your kitty's hair, you'll want to make brushing part of your weekly or daily routine. 3. Yes. Feline pet parents also need to get their kitties used to nail trims and teeth cleanings. Slowly get them used to have their paws and nails touched. Do the same with their teeth and gums. An excellent way to start with dental health is by having them taste kitty toothpaste. Extend ‘agape’ love to your kitty friend. As Albert Schweitzer once said, “There are two means of refuge from the misery of life – music and cats.” Pet Pals - Pet care, dog walking, and dog mentor experts in the Sioux Empire committed to making people and pets' lives easier, healthier, and happier. Your Pet Will Thank You! Happy National Cat Health Month! Brag about you cat in the comments, pictures and/or video encouraged!
