While you probably already show your furry friend lots of love every day, you may be in the mood to do something a little extra special! Here are five easy ways you can show your pet some love.
#1: Set aside extra time for your pet’s favourite activity
Nothing says “I love you” more than spending time doing what your pet loves most. Whether they enjoy napping, running, or stopping to sniff every tree, bush, and mailbox along your walking route, set aside additional time for your pet’s favourite activities.
#2: Groom your pet
A pampering day at the spa will make your pet look and feel their best. You can schedule an appointment with your local groomer or create the ultimate spa experience in your home with an assortment of brushes, shampoos, and conditioners. When you’re spoiling your pet with this one-on-one time, check them over for lumps, wounds, or parasites to help ensure they stay healthy.
#3: Enrich your pet’s environment
For a house pet, your home can become rather boring. Spice up your pet’s life! Enrich their environment with various items that allow them to express natural behaviours. For cats, add a new scratching post or a lofty climbing tower with a hideaway. If your dog enjoys digging, create a digging space in your yard, or purchase a sandbox. Make the digging patch more exciting with hidden toys. You can also engage in daily training sessions with your furry pal, teaching them new tricks that never get old.
#4: Ditch your pet’s food bowl
One of the best ways to show your pet how much you love them is by tossing out their basic food dish. Many pets are overweight and bored, and feeding them food puzzles can help eliminate these issues. Many food puzzle options can entertain your pet while they work for their meal, preventing boredom and overeating.
#5: Schedule your pet’s wellness visit
Keeping your pet happy and healthy for years to come through regular preventive care is an excellent way to appreciate your furry pal. Please contact us to schedule an appointment.
