Winter Pet Care

Winter pet care is very important to the health and safety of your pet. * If you have outdoor pets they use more energy trying to stay warm so be sure to provide extra food and water as they can become dehydrated. * You also need to provide fresh dry straw or hay for their sleeping area outdoors. * Outdoor cats will crawl up on your car engine for warmth so be sure to knock on the hood of your car before you start the engine. * When walking your dog put a sweater and dog booties on them to protect their paws from ice and salt.  * The best thing to do is bring all your pets inside when the temperature dips below 30 degrees. * If you are cold your pet is too!
