Tips for braving winter with your companions
The holiday season is finally here; magical landscapes and Christmas vacations are just around the corner! The winter season also means the arrival of snow, ice and cold days. Like us, our pets need to adapt and change their routines in connection with the arrival of winter.
Here are some tips to prepare your furry friends for the arrival of this season:
Entertainment :
It is certain that during the coldest days, we spend much less time playing outside with them. Whether it is your dog or your cat, whether they are used to spending a lot of time wasting their energy in the yard or not, indoor confinement will not be easy. It is therefore important to find stimulating indoor activities to avoid small messes in the house.
Here are some options available in store for your cats and dogs:
- Catit Flat Track Ball/Scratching Post: The 3-in-1 track with ball is a toy designed to provide your cat with hours of fun. The 3-in-1 interactive toy includes: a scratching board, track with ball, tumbler bee and catnip.
- Classic Goodie Bone: The KONG Goodie Bone is the solution for dogs who love to chew. It can also be filled with treats and/or canned goods at the ends to entertain your pet through his stomach. To increase the difficulty of reaching the food, you can also put it in the freezer.
Protection:
On a freezing winter day, it is important to take the necessary precautions to avoid injury to your pet. Certainly, certain predispositions such as breed, coat or planned activities can influence the type of winter protection needed for your pet.
Here are several items available from Animo etc available to protect your animals from head to paws:
