I’ve dealt with many veterinarians over the years. Some have been better at communicating what my cat needs than others. But they have all had one thing in common: none of them answered my question via TikTok video. Maybe they should have though, because it turns out social media can be a great way to share some fantastic general animal care tips. That’s what one rather attractive veterinarian has proven with his own page full of dancing and silliness. Dr. Hunter Finn is offering up very useful advice on how to keep our furry loved ones safe and happy, in a way that’s easy to understand. And also a lot of fun.

Dr. Hunter Finn of Arlington, Texas (whose viral videos we first learned about at Now This is News) combines comedy, music, and his expertise to provide helpful tips about caring for our pets. His short videos are often silly, but they also come with genuinely fantastic advice we wish we had already known about.
Here are some of our favorites for taking care of your dogs.

The good doctor says if these videos prove successful he’ll make a series for cats. So, considering I, a cat owner, am writing this sentence right now leeeeeet’s gooooooo. How do I get her to stop crying for attention, only for her to run away when she gets it? How?
Seriously though, I’m always looking for ways to help my kitty stay healthy and happy. And it will only help her if I enjoy my research as much as she’ll enjoy what I learn.
