Tami Tango was one of my orphaned skunks and quickly stole my heart. She reminded me that so many animals are misunderstood simply because of myths and misconceptions. She became the inspiration behind my children's book, Love Doesn't Stink, a story about looking beyond first impressions and discovering the beauty, kindness, and unconditional love that can be found in the most unexpected places. Tami has also inspired her very own song, and I hope it brings a smile to your face. All net proceeds from the book go to All Things Wild Wildlife Rehabilitation in Texas to help care for and protect skunks. It's my way of giving back to the wildlife organization where I had the blessing of rehabilitating wildlife for five years. Whether you're sharing the story with a special little one or simply reconnecting with your own inner child, I hope you'll enjoy meeting Tami. 📖 Love Doesn't Stink can be found in the CLASSIFIEDS classroom under Empowering Animals ❤️ Learn more about Empowering Animals

This little girl is packing it on! My sister shared this wonderful video from her garden, and I couldn't resist passing it along. Bees don't take holidays or days off. Every trip they make helps care for their colony, and along the way they pollinate the flowers, fruits, and vegetables that support so much life around us. The next time you see a bee, take a moment to appreciate the important work they're doing. Let's send these tiny workers a little love. ❤️🐝🌻 If stories like this make you smile, we'd love to welcome you to the Empowering Animals community. Together we celebrate animals, discover fascinating facts, and find simple ways to make a positive difference for the creatures who share our world.

When the temperature rises, remember that hot pavement can burn your companion's paw pads in just seconds. If it's too hot outside, it's okay to skip the walk and bring the fun indoors instead! Here are a few ideas to help your dog burn energy while staying cool: 🐾 Hide treats around the house and let them sniff them out. 🐾 Fill a puzzle and treat toys with pumpkin, plain yogurt, or xylitol-free peanut butter and freeze them. 🐾 Spend 5–10 minutes practicing tricks or basic obedience. Mental exercise can be just as tiring as physical exercise. 🐾 Play a gentle game of fetch down a hallway or a game of tug. 🐾 Offer a frozen lick mat for a cool, calming activity. 🐾 Freeze a damp towel for a few minutes and let them relax on it, or use a cooling mat if you have one. 🐾 Keep fans running, close the blinds during the hottest part of the day, and make sure fresh, cool water is always available. You can even add a few ice cubes to their water dish for an extra treat. ☀️🐾 If you live somewhere with extremely hot sidewalks, dog booties designed for hot pavement can help protect their paws. Even so, early morning or evening walks are still the safest choice. If you can't comfortably keep the back of your hand on the pavement for 7 seconds, it's too hot for your dog's paws. ❤️ Sometimes the kindest thing we can do is stay inside. A little creativity, a few games, and some extra snuggles can make for a wonderful day together.
