🐾 Do Pets Have "Nine Lives"? Debunking the Myth of Cats Always Landing on Their Feet 🐾

🐾 Common Pet Myths Debunked! 🐾

Let’s talk about some wild things people believe about our furry friends. If you're a pet parent, you've probably heard at least one of these! Let's bust some myths and make life a little safer (and smarter) for our pets.

🔍 Myth #1: Cats always land on their feet.

Fact: Cats are agile, but they’re not invincible! If a kitty falls from a high enough spot, she can still get injured. Protect those curious cats with coverage that’s a little more reliable than their balancing act.

🔍 Myth #2: A dog’s nose is a thermometer.

Fact: Nose temperature varies for a lot of reasons—activity level, weather, even what they just sniffed. A warm nose doesn't always mean a fever! When in doubt, let the vet (and PetFirst!) handle it.

🔍 Myth #3: Only old dogs get arthritis.

Fact: Pets of all ages can get arthritis—yes, even the energetic ones! Early care (and the right insurance) can make all the difference for their joints and happiness.

🔍 Myth #4: Garlic prevents fleas.

Fact: Not only does garlic NOT keep fleas away, but it’s also toxic to dogs and cats. Stick to safe flea treatments and leave the garlic in the kitchen!

Pet insurance isn’t a myth—just ask us at PetFirst! 🐶🐱 We've got real solutions for real-life surprises. Because while myths can be fun to debunk, quality pet care is no joke.
