In this episode of our series, we talk about one of the most important aspects of welcoming a new furry family member - nutrition.
The first days after adoption are filled with excitement, but they also come with plenty of decisions. One of the biggest is how to support your new companion's health from day one.
In the latest episode of "New Four-Legged Roommate", we explore feeding dogs and cats after adoption and explain why a healthy start is about more than simply filling a food bowl. It's also about being prepared for the small, everyday situations that every pet guardian is likely to face.
Together with Jola Jurkiewicz-Azab from Jelenie w Terenie, we answer some of the questions new pet guardians ask most often. Should you change your pet's food straight away? What's the best approach to feeding after adoption? And is keeping a pet first aid kit at home really worth it?
This episode is a reminder that a great start isn't built on love alone - it's also shaped by thoughtful, everyday choices.
Before you adopt - listen first.

"A New Four-Legged Roommate - Adopting a Dog or Cat with a Head and a Heart" is a conversation series created as part of the #ZNapędemNa4Łapy project. Honest, thoughtful, and full of care, we talk about pet adoption without sugarcoating, but with great respect and heart. We discuss decisions, emotions, responsibility, and the relationship that begins long before the day a dog or cat crosses the threshold of your home.
Joining us in our conversations is Jolanta Jurkiewicz-Azab, a theriologist and long-time animal advocate who has worked closely with rescue organizations and adoption processes for years. If anyone has seen the many realities of adoption behind the scenes, it’s her.
Before you adopt - listen first.
