Colorado Springs Family Shares Cat Adventures On Social Media: ‘We All Love Being Outdoors’

A Colorado Springs family who is on outdoor adventure with their cat is sharing their fun on social media.

Pluto, a family cat who initially joined Satya Wimbish and her kids, Eva and Flourish, on hiking adventures at Red Rock Canyon Open Space has since explored different places in the state such as Garden of the Gods, Great Sand Dunes National Park and Twin Lakes.

According to Wimblesh, it's the adventure they all love.

“It's our family time together. It's something that we all love. We all love being outdoors,” Wimblesh said.

The family and their red wagon are hard to miss, especially with their unexpected black and white furry friend in tow, and it's usually a surprise for anyone they encounter along the way.

“They're like, 'Oh the kids,’ and then Pluto will poke his head out of the wagon if it's not really out, they’re like, ‘Is that a cat? Is that a cat? That’s not a cat.’ So, there's a lot of disbelief that there is really a cat,” Wimbish said.

Wimbish said it's more than just taking fun adventures for the family — it's a chance to experience nature, let out energy and make lifelong memories.

“I just say mental and emotional health, like we've all been through a lot,” Wimbish said. “I'm trying to make sure that they all have a good quality of life and do the best I can with each of them to be able to live it to the fullest.”

Wimbish has been documenting their fun on her social media page, That Cat Pluto, for two years. Her shared posts on Discover Colorado | Through Your Photos are always a hit.

The family plans to explore places like Royal Gorge and Buena Vista for friendly rafting.

The Real Risks: Weighing Vaccine Side Effects vs. Deadly Diseases

Some dog owners express concern about vaccine risks. Meanwhile, preventable diseases continue to pose a documented threat. For example, a two-year pause in dog rabies vaccination campaigns in Haiti resulted in a five to eightfold increase in animal rabies cases within a single year, creating a public health crisis that required an emergency response. This event illustrates a central fact: the dangers of vaccine-preventable diseases are quantifiably greater than the known risks associated with vaccination. This article will address concerns about vaccine safety by examining the precise nature of both vaccine risks and disease threats, using verifiable data to support informed decision-making for your dog's health. The Biological Impossibility of Canine Autism The claim that vaccines cause autism in dogs is not supported by veterinary science due to fundamental biological reasons.

5 Must-Ask Questions Before You Leave Your Dog at the Groomer

A 2022 study in the Journal of Veterinary Behavior noted that over 50% of dogs show signs of stress during grooming. While severe physical injuries are less common, a single preventable incident is one too many. Cases like those in Louisiana, where dogs received ocular chemical burns from misused shampoo at a licensed facility, demonstrate that a groomer’s marketing claims are not a guarantee of safety. Your dog’s well-being depends on the protocols you cannot see. The only way to evaluate them is to ask direct, specific questions. The goal is not to create conflict, but to identify competence and build trust based on transparent practices. 1. “What is your exact step-by-step protocol for protecting my dog’s eyes during the bath?” The difference between a safe groom and a dangerous one lies in the specifics of execution.
