🐾 Pet Health Fundamentals Lab

A 3D lab where you feed, exercise and vaccinate a virtual dog or cat, watching its body condition and stress-related body language respond in real time.

Animals & Their World3DModerate60 FPS

Feed, exercise and vaccinate a virtual dog or cat and watch its body condition, weight trend and body language respond exactly as a real animal's would over weeks of care.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

Calorie intake versus an estimated maintenance requirement slowly reshapes body condition on the same 1–9 scale vets use; stress visibly changes ear and tail posture; skipping preventive care raises overall health risk.

🎮 How to Use

Pick a species, then adjust daily food, exercise and environmental stress. Toggle preventive care on or off and watch the weight-history bars, body condition score and behaviour reading update live.

💡 Did You Know?

A lifelong feeding study found dogs kept in lean body condition lived a median of 1.8 years longer than moderately overweight littermates — everyday calorie balance is itself preventive medicine.

⚙ Under the hood

An interactive 3D dog/cat model whose body condition, weight trend and tail/ear body language respond live to sliders for food intake, exercise, environmental stress and a preventive-care toggle.
