Cold Weather Tips for Pets

Let me start off by just stating the obvious, it's freezing outside! We are all very quick to buddle ourselves up and make sure we are warm enough but it is important to remember our furry family members as well! Here are some things to keep in mind during this weather:

Just because your animals have fur, doesn't mean they are fully equipped to withstand the cold weather. Smaller breeds are much more sensitive to the cold weather. As silly as it may sound to people, putting a coat or even little boots on your small breeds is a very smart move.

If you usually let your cat or dog stay outside all day, do not do this in these temperatures! If you are working all day, let your cat or dog out to do it's business and bring them right back in. If you have an outdoor cat, chances are it won't want to be outside long so you don't have to worry about it not coming back in before you leave for the day.

Don't forget to share this post with your fellow animal lovers! Keeping your animals warm during this time of year is a lifesaver!
