A cherished San Francisco tradition happens tomorrow the annual Chinese New Year parade is the largest one outside asia. It includes elaborate floats, school marching band, stilt walkers and a dragon. The parade starts at 5 15 p. M. At second and market streets and then heads through chinatown towards columbus avenue. It can be a problem for people with more than one pet. Our pet expert gives us meal time tips to avoid a feeding frenzy. ,,,,,,,,,. Well, todays tip of the day is going to be is with cantaloupe. Selection and storage is important. When you buy cantaloupe this time of year, you may cut them and they will be crunchy not a lot of sugar so heres what you want to do. When you buy them, make sure the net something tight all the way around. A little bit of green is okay this time of year but the less green the better. Heavy for their size. That means they have a small cavity. When you bring them home, simply store them, heres the key now, you want to store them in the refrigerator. And let me tell you why. At Room Temperature, they will start to decay on you much quicker and get a little bit of that like a mouldy look to them and that you dont want. In the refrigerator, they will stay for 4 to 6 days that way. But take about a couple of hours before and get them up to Room Temperature because once cantaloupes get picked the sugar content stops. With honeydew the sugar content continues. So there you go. Cantaloupes, some proscuitto wrapped it, great. Im tony tantillo, your fresh grocer, and always remember to eat fresh and stay healthy. Meal time can be a feeding frenzy as pets compete for dinner or snacks. Here is our pet expert dr. Jill chase with some advice and cody and kona. Back by popular demand. They are popular. They are not fighting though. No. I dont think so. But the question is good. Are the dogs or cats that in a multianimal family fighting for food . In which case i would say separate the bowls. In my house i had a cat who would eat until she burst so i would have to physically remove her so she wouldnt eat everybody elses food. If you have animals fighting you have to feed them in separate areas. You have to put one in one room, close the door and the other one in the other room. I think kona wants me. There you go. So it is you know, it seems like an easy topic but in fact, it does happen a lot in homes and a lot of owners may not know what to do to make their lives less stressful. So one, definitely different bowls for different animals and two, if you have animals that are going to compete for food or even start to fight, then separate them into different rooms. Those are meals. What about snacks . When youre just snacks are tricky. Thats a really good question. You know, you have to be prepared to feet if its a dog situation where you can just you have to be prepared to separate so that nobody is fighting over each treat, right . That can absolutely turn into a dogfight and that can be very dangerous and scary. Okay. All right. Those are good tips to know. This is kona, right . Yup. And then cody is kind of hanging out. Yeah. Theyre much more active than they were the last time. Last time they had passed out. I know. Well bring them on again. I want to keep bringing them on so people can watch them grow.
