Lifestyles Ideas Management - Your Loveable Pet


Re-use old baby clothing instead of buying new pet clothing for your dog.

Never leave your god unattended in direct sunlight or in a closed vehicle. Heatstroke can occur and lead to brain damage or death

Your pet rabbit should have a water bottle available with clean water at all times. The bottle should be washed and refilled daily, even if it is not empty.

Prevent your god from hanging this head out of the window of a moving car.

Exercise dogs and play with cats early or later in the day when it is cooler.

Play with your puppy’s feet when it is young so it becomes used to the idea of having its nails cut.

Do not give cow’s milk to kittens or adult cats because it may cause gas and diarrhea.

If you take your dog to the beach, be sure to give it access to shaded areas and plenty of fresh drinking water.

Use spray bottles with water if it is necessary to discipline your pet. Physical punishment does not teach your pet the appropriate behavior.

Do not shave off all of the dog’s hair. A pet’s coat protects it against the sun.

Always provide your cat with a scratching post to discourage it from destroying your furniture.

Sterilize your pet prevents unwanted litters and reduces the likelihood of contracting certain diseases.

Clean your dog’s teeth with pet toothpaste and a soft toothbrush at least twice a week.

Stroking and scratching pets helps them to relax and feel more contented.

From puppy hood onwards, redirect chewing behavior to appropriate objects such as chew toys and not shoes.

Never spray your god in the face when showering with a hose.

Make sure your god stays in a sitting position when you introduce a child and or another pet to it, so it is less likely to pounce on or knock the child or animal over.

Never pick up a pet rabbit by the ears.

Be aware of laws involving pets and abide by them.

Always ensure that your pet has access to fresh drinking water 24 hours a day.

A pet is for life. Get a pet when you are sure that you can take care of it properly. Be responsible for their lives.
