How To Keep Your Pet Happy & Healthy

Having a pet can be very rewarding, but it also has its downsides. Sometimes pets are stressed out and tired by all the attention they are receiving from the children in your home because they’re overstimulated and need some personal space to retreat back into their comfort zones. When this happens, they might need to take some time alone, so make sure your kids know this and give them space when needed.
A healthy diet is essential for your pet to be well. It’s important that you know about their breed and build a balanced, nutritious menu for them. You should give treats sparingly as they could upset the balance of nutrients in your pet’s food plan; rather than giving too much at once, opt instead to alternate between two different kinds if it makes sense (e.g., try one day with apple slices or carrots followed by sunflower seeds on another). If something doesn’t seem right after feeding it to them then don’t do so again until finding out why.
The passing of time during lockdown has introduced some unplanned changes to your schedule. It can be tempting to let our pets experience the same disruption in their routines, but it is important that we try not to veer far from what they are accustomed to. Feedings, potty breaks and walks should all happen on a regular basis if possible; even short drives with dogs who usually go may work out well for everyone involved during this difficult period!
