Rainy season is here, and our furry (and feathery, and scaly) friends need a little extra care! 🌧️🐾
A few simple reminders:
- Dry off paws and fur right after walks to prevent fungal infections and skin irritation between toes
- Keep pets away from puddles and standing water - parasites and bacteria love to hide there
- Raise cages and enclosures off damp floors, especially for hamsters, birds, and reptiles who are extra sensitive to humidity
- Keep young and senior pets warm on cold, wet days
- Check ears often, especially floppy-eared dog breeds prone to ear infections in humid weather
A little extra attention now goes a long way toward keeping your pets healthy all season!
Any rainy-day pet care tips from your household? Does your pet hate the rain as much as some humans do? 👇
