Choosing a New Pet

What to Consider When Choosing a New Pet

  • How much room do you have?

  • Will your existing pets get along with the new pet?

  • Do you like a pet that's a constant companion or one that's more independent?

  • Will noise be an issue?

  • What about food and vet costs?

  • If you travel a lot, are you prepared to take your pet with you?

  • Is everyone in your household ready and willing to take care of the animal?

  • What about keeping the furniture free of animal fur?

  • Does the pet you're considering fit your personality?



Tips for Training Your Cat

  • Focus on rewarding good behavior instead of punishing bad behavior

  • Redirect the cat's energies:   for instance, if you want your cat to stop scratching the furniture, get a scratching post

  • To keep your cat away from something, use citrus or menthol, because cats dislike those scents

  • To reinforce good behavior, use treats your cat really loves, such as tunafish or catnip, and don't overdo the treats

  • Keep any training and play sessions short -- no more than about 15 minutes

How to Keep Your Dog Healthy

How to Keep Your Dog Healthy

  • When choosing a dog food, avoid foods that contain filler ingredients such as ethoxyquin, propylene glycol, BHT/BHA, corn syrup, and corn

  • Remember chocolate is toxic to dogs, and so are grapes, raisins, avocados, yeast dough, nuts, alcohol, onions, garlic, chives, and sugar-free gum (because of the ingredient xylitol[3][4])

  • Keep your dog at a healthy weight -- they need diet and exercise just like us!

  • Brushing your dog's coat keeps it shiny and healthy and promotes good circulation
